We pick it now. It's Harvard That
Crimson eleven Of 1914 was such a
marvellous thing, so perfect in every
detail, so inyulnerable on defense, and
so rushingly powerful on offense,
when all the regulars were in, that it
couldn't be bettered by the addition
even of a Maulbetsch or LeGore or
anyone you might name. There un-
doubtedly are several men who played
this year who were better as individ-
uals than some of the Harvard regu-
lars, but the best would not have fitted
in as an efficient working part of the
Crimson car as well as did the men
who comprised Haughtons Hurricane.
On the other hand, if requested to
name an all-star eleven, it is doubtful
if more than five or SIX Harvard names
would appear on it. Wed say 'Mahan,

London, Nov. 14-(By mail to New

saw the war.
In letter from the front, promi
nent north country football player, now
serving in the royal field artillery
says: "The great match for the Eu
ropean cup is still being played out
and ! daresay there's a record gate,
though you cannot see the spectators
from the field. That's one of the rules
OF the game when this match IS on.
In spite of all their 'swank' the Ger
mans haven't scored a goal yet, and
they are simply kicking at the ball any
way in their blind rage at not being
able to score.
Our team is about as fit as you
could have them, and they are all good
men, though some of them are anna
tours and the Germans are all pros
The German forwards are a rotten
pack They have no dash worth
speaking about and they came up the
field as though they were going to the
funeral of their nearest and dearest.
When they are charged they nearly
always fall away on their backs. and
their goal keeping Is about the rotten
est thing you ever set eyes on.
Il wouldn't give a brass farthing for
their chance of lifting the cup. and If
you have any brass to spare you can
put II on the France-British team who
are scoring goals so fast that they
haven't time to stop and count them,
The kaiser makes a rotten captain for
any team, and it's little wonder they
are losing. Most Of our chaps would

manded Mrs. Antoinette Funk, who,
with Mrs. Medill Mccormick was in

Surprised? "Yes and No.

Another word battle over the Shu-
man question had been generally ex-
pected and behind the Council railing
an interested body, of spectators had
gathered. There was a suppressed
gasp of surprise when Council quietly
adjourned and not voice was raised
about Shuman.
All the Councilmen smilingly de-
clared they had nothing to say"
Were you surprised Mayor" Mr..
Royal was asked.
We'll, answered the Mayor, yes
and no."
To further questions the Council
men simply said that Mr. Shuman, so
far as they knew, was still filling his
old job at the Pennsylvania Railroad
roundhouses. 1t is said that Shu-
mans name will be withdrawn.
Among the new measures offered
were the following:
The Lynch sewer Omnibus" which
provides for an expenditure of $685.
500 of the 100000 sewer loan of
1913. Mr.. Lynch is authorized to ad-
Vertise for bids and award the con-
tract, subject to Councils approval,

to take this step in ample time to
begin work with the opening OF
