Princeton Victorious

'
 Princeton opened the new Palmer Memorial stadium Saturday with a 16 to 12 victory over Dartmouth. The game was crowded with thrills there being two blocked punts, one of which gave Princeton a touchdown. A bril- liant run of 75 yards by Ghee in the second period, after Princeton had 13 points, scored Dartmouth's first touch down, The successful use of the for ward pass coupled with a smashing line attack gave her six points more, just before the game closed.
 Dartmouth had a powerful attack but the Princeton line proved equal to the task of holding it. Princeton s attack was purely open always mak- ing in her own territory. The first score came in the second period when, after Brown had covered Whitneys tumble on the IT yard line, Ames hurled the ball to B. Trenkmann for a gain of A yards.
 Ames tallied on the third play. Later B. Trenkmann blocked a punt and the ball rolled behind the goal, where Gennert dropped on it for another touchdown. Tibbott drop-licked a beautiful goal from the AZ yard line shortly afterward.
 Ghee scored the first touchdown for Dartmouth on a 76 yard run and the last tally came when two successful forward passes placed it on the. four yard line whence Curtis carried it over.

The Academy and Greeneyille bas- tied to scoreless tie Satur1a.y after noon in the best game seen on the To- cal campus this season. The game was marked with good football and both teams worked in fine style. The men tackled, interfered and handled the ball well, there being only one tumble made in the game. The ball was in the. visitors possession most of the last half. The game marked d wonderful improvement in the Aead- emy's playing over Fridays showing and revived hopes of defeating Bulke- ley next Saturday. Halfback Holmes, who has been out of the game owing to an injured knee, was back at his position and O'Hearn was at end. Mo OMi1lian played tackle. The work Of these three men was the main factor in the teams improvement.
 Joe Hull played a dazzling game at end, intercepting several forward passes and getting down under punts so as to throw, the receiving back some fine tackles and every man on the field figured in at least one bril- liant play. In the fourth quarter N. F. A. had the ball on Greeneyilles five yard line but could not cary it over. The Supa brothers were the stars for Greenevflle. both on the offense and defense. GreenevilIeS deserves credit for having one of the best independent elevens ever organized in this vicinity. The quarters were ten minutes in length and no fault was found with referee Alofsins officiating. Chas. Young, the N. F. A. baseball campain, made a good umpire.
 First Quarter
 Captain Supa won the. toss and de- cided to kick off. Farrell sent a low line kick sailing to the Academy s twenty five yard line. It struck the ground, took short bound and Phil Henault grabbed it. By the aid of good interference and judicious use s of the straight arm, he ran it back 15 yards. Holmes and Murtha made two ineffectual rus1nes and Stanley Joe Hull nailed Supa, who caught the ball. GTeeneville used end runs and made 20 yards, then they were held for downs. Stanley tried his backs twice and again punted. Supa.t caught the punt and ran back short dis tance. Greenville tried forward pass and Joe Hull caught it. The Academy gained some but Greeneville got the ball on downs. They failed, to gain, so Supa punted to the Academy's 1 5 yard line and the referee blew his whistle ending the quarter.
 Second Quarter
 Murtha, Stanley and Holmes rush ed the ball to midfeid by a succession of end runs. There the Greeneville line held and Stanley punted. Joe Hull nailed Supa in his tracks Greene ville made a succession of rusfes and drought the ball back to midheld, where the Academy got it on downs. The ball zigZagged back and forth in this manner and the half ended with the bali in GreenevilIes territory Both teams retired to their dressing

VALE DoWNED BY
 WASHINGTON AND JEFFERSON
Blue Men outpIayed in All Depart
 ments-Score IS to $

- R
 The aggressive gridiron warriors of Washington and Jefferson sprung the biggest surprise of the season and caused one of the greatest upsets in years at New Haven Saturday after noon when with the exception of the first period and @ few minutes near the close of one of the best football games ever played in the present en- closure, they outguessed and outplay- ed the Yale men in practically every department of the game and left the battlefield victors by a IS to ' margin.
 Yale at no time this fall has held the Pennsylvanians cheaply and really looked for a hard game, but after the somewhat easy disposition of the much-touted Notre Dame team the week previous general confidence reigned in Blue circles. The manner in which the Yale line was torn apart, the attack blunted and the Ellis ham, the gridiron to the other, came as a great revelation and rude jolt to Yale adherents.
 The visitors came here in the pink of physical condition and displaying evidence of painstaking coaching in plays destined to meet the very attack Acting Captain Alec Wilson selected for his campaign and viewed from any angle one wishes the better team won as it deserved to do. Over 10000 peo- pie sat until dusk watching the tide of battle ebb and flow.
 In the first period there was little to choose between the two teams until the moment when the ball had been hammered steadily down into the Washington and Jefferson domain and Alec Wilson shot a, running pass to willy Harry LeGore. The doughty Yale back sped a. few yards and crossed the line and shortly after kicked the goal
 Yale men lay back with a show of confidence after this, but there were misgivings when huge gaps began to appear in the Blue line. the Yale at- tack was shunted off to one side and Washington and Jefferson men began to show their teeth.

From then on the local team rushed the ball within F yards of the Michigan goal. Roses plunges were a material aid in this. Michigan held strong under the shadow of the goal posts.

The baseball season came to an end in Norwich Sunday when the Sachems were defeated by a picked-up team playing under the name of the New Stars, by the score of g to s, in a game full of bonehead plays and bar rels of errors. in which the Sachems made a record, making 21 errors, and their bats were wasted by slow and poor base running. The New Stars were a picked-up team from neighbor- ing towns and they made up for their weak hitting by good fielding. Ben Houlihan clouted the ball for hits out of times at bat. and if Wheeler had not stopped at second for refresh ments he would have tied the score in the ninth on a hard drive of Houli- hans.

Domestic Menace.

On matters of feminine dress we sell
dom venture to express an opinion un-
less it be occasionally a word in de-
Tense of that liberalism which permits
a woman to consider her freedom and
comfort as well as her appearance.
But we are prompted now to utter
protest against the progress OF Amer
lean fashion designers, who, with a
free field for the first time in history,
can think of nothing better than to
mimic the military uniforms Of Eu-
rope.
Is il not enough that we should have
the horrors of the wal thrust upon us
by the news, filling our imaginations,
coloring our dreams? Is it not enough
that there should be signs Of a military
epidemic in all u magazines, articles
on strategy, stories of fighting and
blo~odshed? Must we have the worlds
nightmare intensified by the very
clothes the women wear? - Chicago

Gasoline at the Poles.

The A%mundsen and Scott expedi-
tons were greatly hindered through
losing much of their gasoline-a loss
that. in fact, had much to do with the
disaster that befell Captain Scott. Mr..
B. T. Brooks of the Mellon Institute
Of Industrial Research thinks he
knows what caused the loss. At low
temperatures, he says, ordinary tin
tends to pulverize. At 81 degrees be
low zero it pulverizes quickly and may
~pulverize. although more slowly, at a
higher temperature. Now, hard solder
usually contains a large percentage Of
tin, and so, of course. disintegrates In
the same way. Consequently the gas
oline cans are likely to leak at the
soldered seams, Mr.. Brooks suggests
that polar explorers carry their sup
plies of gasoline in containers made
of glass, or of some metal unaffected
by extreme cold.-Youth's Companion.

most every senator and representa-

great plan for the salvation Of the

From among the great mass Of bills
that were presented, two became the
most prominent. One provided a state
bond issue to valorize the 1914 crop,
and the other to make 1t a misdemean-
or to plant cotton during 1915. While
the Legislators appeared in favor OF
the reduction of the cotton acreage,
the fact that they killed the bill showed
that they were not in favor Of doing
away with the cotton crop entirely In

Euypt Also Affected.

The southern cotton growers have
not been the only ones to suffer from
the failure of the cotton market, for
word has been received that Egypt
also has been seriously affected. This
country in the far East grows a con
siderable quantity Of the f1eecy staple
which is disposed Of almost entirely
through the London exchange.
Egypt has not only suffered from the
failure to sell their product, but the
pink boil worm played havoc with
the crop. It Is reported that the
growers of Egypt made only about
one-half of their normal crop. When
the Egyptians realized the cotton sit
u%ation, the ministry of agriculture at
once issued a proclamation to the cot
ton growers calling upon them to cut
their acreage 60 per cent, and the cul-
tivators we're instructed to plant rice,
corn. beans. and other grains and food
products.
