If, the weather permits, the 1914 football season will be inaugurated today, when all the important eastern colleges and universities will be rep resented on the gridiron, which should develop excellent play in the initial gagged. While many of the big varsity elevens will face comparatively weak opponents they are the ones who last year forced them to play the hardest kind. of football in order to make a satisfactory showing.
 N. FLA. Opens Season.
 The N. F. A. team will open up to- day with, a new organized team called the Independents, which from all in- dtcations Is sure, to be an interesting contest. The team has been drilled hard practice in spite of the summer weather. Coach Overbagh has train ed his pigskin chasers to the minute and is confident that the boys will nave a most successful season. Thurs day was the last day of scrimmage tice.
 The team, although lighter than us- ual. appears to have the snap and pep that Is characteristic of the players up to date. The Independents are g. team made of local gridiron war

 Probably the most important game in the Eastern Connecticut Soccer league will be played today when Plainfield clashes against Taftville on the latter's ground for the coveted first position, and Baltic and Sterling. at Sterling, will fight for the cellar position.

 Cornell vs. Pittsburgh.
 At Ithaca. the powerful University of Pittsburgh team will attempt to repeat the victory which marked the 1913 season. when Cornell was de- feated 20 to z. Many of last years visitors expect to test the Red and White defense in every department of play. Cornell. however, is not in the same weak condition that prevail ed early last season. Coach Sharpe system developed the Ithaca squad rapidly in the closing weeks of the 1913 campaign and the lessons which preceded the overthrow of Pennsyl- vania were were we'll learned. As a result Cornell faces Pittsburgh with both an established system of of- fense and defense and players who shave passed beyond the rudimentary stages of the game Thus prepared for the charge of their conquerors of a year ago. the result may be reversed at Percy field tomorrow.
 Rutgers After Princeton.
 Princeton is expected to try out her new open play attack on Rutgers and unless it works smoothly there is like ly to be an upset. for the New Bruns- wick college sends a strong, we'll coached squad to Tigertown. Foster Sanford and his co-workers have spent many days preparing Rutgers for this game and Princeton, after the experience of last season, is not inclined to. under estimate her oppo- has succeeded in teaching his foot ball pupils a method of breaking up
 fo~roN+'on forward passing attack will be demonstrated. Rutgers o.-~.41e IS saIa ,o be stronger than a year ago and if the defense is of equal calibre, Princeton will find the invaders worthy rivals.
 Yale's First Test.
 A new coaching system will also get it's first test at Yale, where Frank Hinkey's charges will line up against the University of Maine eleven which last season held the Ellis to no score game. The New England clan has henn prerarfng quietly tor this con test and hope to make an impressive showing against the Blue. Reports however, indicate that Hinkey and the other Yale coaches have not been idle and it is likely that the Eli foot ball machine will show evidence of a power which will bring joy to the Yale supporters.
 The other leading teams of the east will face less formidable opponents meeting in several cases elevens which did not figure in the 1913 schedules

Sassed the claims in their own minds.
This was one of the matters de

committee of the associated advertis-
ing clubs Of America week or 10
days ago. The chairman of the pro-
gram committee, John. K. Allen. OF
Boston, thinks that the speeches in
the general session will be of the
greatest value in that all the clubs
will thus get definite information as
to what the most progressive clubs
are accomplishing. Thus he says,
the members of the various clubs will
leave the convention with lot Of
valuable pointers for their own clubs
back home. Naturally the clubs will
put forward their best orators, and
we believe the contest will be unusu-
ally interesting, as well as particu.
larry valuable feature of the program
Printers" Ink thinks so. too. The
value of the cup is that it stands for
an ideal. Behind the generous rivalry
of the clubs in their service to the
cause of advertising is the general
striving for a higher type of club and

Editor Honolulu Star-Bulletin,s
Sir: The world is often presented
with long lists of things that ought tc
be invented, and over which high
brows are wearing their hearts away
but there is one thing that is missing
from the list, and that is the inven.
ton of something (short of murder
that viii prevent lot of people trail
ing into theater long after the cur,
tain has gone up. and thereby prac
tiealiy spelling the play for the time
being for about half of the people
that get there when they ought to.
Last Saturday night, about half of
the people in the Biiou thaater lost
track of the play and even of the
stage through the agency Of lot OF
late corners who trailed in through the
doors for over 20 minutes after the
play had commenced. If the saying
is true that ones ears Jingle when
somebody is talking about them, then
some of those late corners ears
must have sounded like a boiler shop.
The curtain on the evening in ques.
ton did not go up until nearly $3.50.
and it would seem that by that hour
everybody who had any idea Of going
to the Bijou should have been in their
seats ...
Another matter that struck the writ
er as sort of funny" was the seeming
fact that every ticket sold at the Ho.
tel street entrance was for seat on
the mauka side of the house. and
every ticket sold at the Pauahi street
entrance was for seat on the makai

grand passing and requesting of pat.

notwithstanding, would suggest large
