London, Nov. l1.-Widely differ

the eastern and western theaters of

Princeton this season and trust to luck
for three years to come The reason is
that another Poe, a member of the
family that has always been a nemesis
to the Ellis. is now going through the
one-year probationary system. and he
will not be ready to exert the family's
baneful influence for Tiger uplift and

he will be on hand next season, and if
the Ellis respect tradition they will keep
a close watch on the latest member of
the most famous family that football

The youthful Arthur Poe, who is now
serving his apprenticeship on the Prince
ton freshman eleven. is the son of Ed
gar Allan Poe. captain of Princeton's

the last few seconds of play.
Young Poe is eighteen years Old,
weighs about 155 pounds and stands five
feet ten inches. He Is a candidate for

Princeton at st. Marks, Southboro,

Poe will not be the only name in the

tions young Snake Ames, whose father
was celebrated fullback on Edgar

Tigers next season.
There will also be a King on next
