NO SUBMARINES ARE
BEING BUILT IN THE
u. S. FOR EUROPEANS
By "Hop'

Washington, December 1.-Secretary
Bryan today said that after thorough
investigation of rumors that submarines
were being built in the United States for
European belligerents, the American gov
eminent had found no evidence to sup
port such reports.
The Secretary said government agents
had not discovered that work Of any
character was being done on foreign war
craft and declared his statement also
covered rumors that submarines were be-
ing constructed in sections for shipment
abroad.
While the building of war vessels for
belligerent Is a breach of neutrality,
Mr.. Bryan declined to say what ruling
the state department would make II 1t was
discovered American firms were build
mig submarines In sections. When it was
recalled that during the Russo-Japanese
war submarines were built in sections in
the United States and shipped to Russia,
the Secretary declined to comment, say
ing such a case would be ruled on il it
arose.

HARVARD VICTORY STAMPS TEAM
ASONE OF CR|MSON'S GREATEST

made in the "a games played since
1875. ~ -. .:...,s....
The one-sided score failed to give
the slightest inkling of the thrilling
scope of the play or the remarkable
strategy and individual brilliancy with
which the game bristled. Every sec
ond or third play brought the thous-
ands to their feet, SO intense was the
excitement and so spectacular the
play. No game of equal ealiber on
Eastern football fields N many years
has provided such spectacle
1t seemed at times as though the
contest was a carefully prearranged
spectacle, wherein climax followed
climax until the spectators were be-
wildered by the rapid succession OF
runs, passes and kicks, which were
turned into scores with almost as
much rapidity, but always for Har-
ward. Far from the least Of these
Kaleidoscope changes we're the fum-
bles Yale contributed in the shadow
of the crimson goal posts, and which
Harvard turned into additional touch
downs. ~
Team Height of Perfection.
The grip of the game held spell
bound the greatest gathering of foot
ball enthusiasts ever assembled for an
intercollegiate contest in this country,
over 10000 spectators massed In the
newest and largest of college sta
diums forming a picture almost as
enthralling as the combat of the Grim
son and blue jerseyed athletes.
The celebrating antics OF the GRIM
son undergraduates, including the
snake dance, cheering and burning red
fire on the tops Of the goal posts,
gave a picturesque finishing touch to
one of the greatest games of modern
football.
The Yale cohorts remained loyal to
the last, although they realized that
the blue had been but q foil for one Of
the greatest elevens Of all time. Just
how the Harvard team of 1914 classes
with some Of the famous combinations
of former years is tonight a matter OF
heated argument among veteran play
ers and experts, but careful anaiy-
