IDEAL WEATHER FOR
GAME At PRINCETON
Yale Won Toss and Scored on
Forward Pass After Few
Minutes of Play
By Associated Press

Princeton, N. j., Nov. IA. - Ideal
weather conditions marked the real
football dedication of the Palmer
stadium here to-day when Yale and
Princeton met. The sun shone from a
cloudless sky and there was but the
slightest breeze from the north. The
playing field, which had been covered
with several feet of straw until this
morning. was fresh and green and the
turf unusually fast. The early kick
ing practice showed that there was
little advantage so far as the wind
was concerned.
The scenic effect of the stadium
filled with brightly-gowned women
and their flag-bearing escorts aroused
the enthusiasm of every football fol-
lower.
The Yale squad was first on the
held shortly after 1.30 and was fol-
lowed almost Immediately by the
Princeton cheering squad, which,
headed by band, paraded around the
field. 30
The Princeton team came on the
field at 1.52 amidst the cheers of the
Tiger supporters.
Yale won the toss. Yale scored in
the first period on a forward pass but
the try for goal failed. Yale 6;

EXPLOSIVE DRAGGED
AGAINST SUBMARINE
GGn adt ~ e:7E a1om .a,Ed G"iu,
British Believe They Have Two
German Vessels Which Have
Menaced Their Navy
Special to The Telegraph

London, Nov. IA. - The Standard
publishes a report passed by the Press
Bureau that two German submarines
have been lost recently. The Standard
says:
Two submarines which have been
raiding in the English Channel have
been satisfactorily accounted for. One
of these submarines has been carry
ing out a series of daring reconnaiS-
sances in the vicinity of Dover, and
patrolling cruiser reported attempts by
this German craft to send a torpedo
against her.
Patrol fiotillas from Dover began a
search for this submarine. Naval men
had reason to believe that the vessel
was saving power by remaining on the
bed of the sea for lengthy periods. The
keenest sort of watch was kept and
due preparations made. During one
of the extremely calm days for which
the end of October was notable bub-
bles were seen rising at certain points.
Vessels went out and dredged over
this area in a similar manner to mine
sweeping, but using a powerful chain
with explosives attached. This chain
was dragged at a depth that would
catch the submarine IL lying there.
After patroling several times over
this area, there was heavy eXplo-
sion. This was followed soon by the
rising of large quantities of oil to the
surface Those who took part in the
operation have no doubt that a Ger
man submarine was blown up. The
other was trapped and sunk by shells"

ON LOOKOUT FOR
RECKLESS SHOOTERS
Somebody Seems to Find Pleasure
in Making the Bullets Whiz
About Folks Heads

Residents of the lower end of Steel
ton have complained to the police
authorities about the amount of reck-
less shooting in this locality at night.
1t is a nightly occurrence, say resi-
dents of this section of town. to hear
the crack of a rifle or revolver and
hear the whiz of a bullet flying through
the air
Most of the shooting, it seems, is
done from the hill back of South Third
street and in some of the alleys in the
neighborhood of Chambers street.
While no person has yet been in
jured by flying bullets, travel in this
section of town after 10 o'clock is not
very pleasant, according to some of the
residents. In a number of places bull
let's have struck houses and in one
case narrowly missed striking a man
as he was sitting reading a paper by
his fireside.
Detective Irwin Durnbaugh and a
number of police officers are on the
lookout for the shooters and If anyone
Is caught using firearms prosecutions
will be started.

Plans Being Made For
Evacuation Of Mexican
City on November e
BY Associated Press

Washington. Nov. 14.-While plans
for the American evacuation of Vera
Cruz on November 23 were being car
ried forward to-day grew in
official circles that further blood
shed between the Mexican fac
tions might be avoided by the truce
the Carranza and Villa factions are
reported to have entered into until No
vember 20.
Carranza's call to General Gonzales,
the leading general upon whom he de-
pends, to come to Mexico City was re-
garded as evidence that further influ-
ences were at work to prevent a new
civil war, which military experts say
would be the bloodiest yet of the Mexi-
can conflicts
Meanwhile it was indicated that VII
la, holding San Potosi and the railroad
running to Tampico, was resting his
army on it's arms awaiting develop
ments. 1t seemed to-day that only the
most untoward developments could
stay the departure of Brigadier Gen
eral Funston's forces and that the
Mexican factions would be left to set
tie their own differences.
