CAMP MAY CHOOSE
 HARDWICK, PENNOCK &
 MAHAN FOR EAST TEAM

Boston. Nov. 12.-Harvard's ath Ietic authorities, to whom the project Of a game between the Eastern and Western football champions was broached a short time ago have come back with another idea-that of an A1l-Eastern team against an All Western, to be played at the end Of the regular season, probably in Chi- caEo.
 Credit for the idea seems to belong to Coach Li1lard of Andover. who mentaoned it to some of the Harvard people about the time of the Micht- gan game in Cambridge.
 Harvard men. particularly Coach Haughton, did not favor the propos- ed meeting of Eastern and Western champions. so far as Harvard is con Crimson should win the Eastern title. They thought that their men would not want to keep in training the ex- tra. time, and that, having been brought on edge for the Yale game. they would fall away from their best forms if they were compelled to keep in condition week or more after players in favor of this prolongation Of the regular season.
 X On the other hand, the All Eastern idea. has this in it's favor, that it could be carried out by enHsting two or three men only from each college There would be less likelihood of fac uIty objection than if any one college was asked to prolong it's season for a whole team.
 There is this drawback, that such a team, made up of players from many different colleges. tr aimed in different football methods. would need more time than is available to get any team work into their game, and playing a week or so after the regular season they would necessarily have only an individual game to present.
 In any mention that has been made of the latter project at Harvard Wal ter Camp, the veteran head of foot ball at Yale, has been the only one suggested for the job of picking the Eastern team.
 Harvard men believe that Eddie Mahan of the backf1eld, Stanley Pen- mock of the middle line and Tack Hardwick for an end would probably be selections for any Eastern team of the sort suggested.
 Chicago. has been the place suggest ed for the game because Thanksgiving week is already pretty well occupied with football fixtures in the East

AzoTURIA, A OoID-W1zATHHR
 DISEASE OF HORSES

With the approach Of cold weather horse owners should guard against azoturias which occurs almost in variably in weI1-conditioned animals and claims many victims. especially during the winter season
 Various local names have been given to this disease, among which
 may be mentioned s'lurnbago.' g spinal meningitis" and tsbIack water. The two former terms have been applied owing to the hard and swollen condf-, tion of the muscles Of the loins and croup and the loss of control of tlls hind parts commonly observed in these cases and the latter names Is descriptive of the urine. which IS usually of a dark coffee color N
 While azoturda may occur at any season of the year it is but seldom ob- served during the warm weather of summer. It usually appears in high 1y fed, weil-nourished animals, which though accustomed to regular work have remained idle for one or more days without corresponding reduc- ton in the rations.
 AS a rule the animal is attacked suddenly soon after leaving the stable in apparently perfect condition. The attack may occur after or 10 min utes' driving or. in some cases sew eral hours after the horse has left the stable
 Anong the first synptorns are a staggering of the hind parts, knuck- ling of the pasterns. and profuse per- spiration. Tn spite of such spasrns in muscles of the hind parts the horse attempts to go on until he soon falls help1essly. Usually there are ef- forts to rise, but as 9 rule the ami mai is unable to stand even should he regain his feet, and it becomes necessary to remove him to the stable on wagon, sled, or drag.
 Horses attacked with azoturias should be Immediately freed from the wagon and harness and be provided with ample straw or other bedding. to protect them from injury inctden1 tai to the struggle to regain their feet Especial care must be taken to prevent beating of the head upon the ground. and if the patient is very restless a strong man should place his knees upon the animals neck and hold the head firmly upon the ground. Throw a warm blanket over the pros trate horse and arrange immediately for his removal to stable, where 8

PRINCETON WORKING
 HARD FOR YALE GAME

Princeton, N J.. Nov. 1s-An army of coaches stod on the side lines here yesterday and watched the varsity go through a good afternoon,s work AL though powerless to interfere with the work Of the aQnad, they witnessed one of the best exhibitions of real football which the team has thus far given. In the serinmage with the scrubs which lasted over n hour, there was so much fight shown that the fray had all the marks of championship game.
 This may have been due in part to the splendid football weather, but most of the pepper was instilled through the medium of a long talk to the squad given by Penfeld, Eddie Hart and Arthur Poe.

sleeve for the New York American ing back for such a time when peace was to be declared. Jones was signed to manage the St Louis Feds late in the season. but the merger Of the Cardinals and the St. Louis F.ederals will deprive him of his job in the Mound City.
 However, it was necessary to find a good job for Jones, and under the peace treaty he is to be given com mana of the Yankees. Jones perhaps could get more out of mediocre talent than any modern manager with the possible exceptian of George StaHings. His greatest feat was to win the worlds championship from the Cubs in 1906. when his White Sox had the lowest batting average of any team in the big leagues.
