first string, center, and later an end, who has been out of the team nearly a month reappeared on the field to- day. Although a. veteTan of the Yale game last year and regarded as one of tine strongest players on the squad, he has been out so long that he will not start the game against Yale.
 Vale Had Stiff Scrimmaee.
 New Haven, Conn, Nov, 17.-In the fiercest scrimmage seen here this year, the Yale varsity eleven today scored two touchdowns against the scrubs in the new bowl. Several players were hurt, none seriously Walden right guard. wrenched his arm and was re- linesman. '.Aleck' Wilson, varsity quarterback, was kicked in the head. For time it was feared he was bad Iy hurt, but later it was said he was none the worse for the injury. Still kan's ankle, which was wrenched fin the Princeton game, is causing the trainers a little worry. He did not play today, Carter holding down his position at right end.
 The touchdowns were the result of sensational forward and lateral pases. The first touchdown was made by Scovil, who had replaced Knowles. that netted 70 yards, IIe Gore finally carrying the ball over the line after the spheroid had been tossed about in basketball fashion.
 Pumpelly, whose field goal at Princeton two years ago saved Yale from defeat, practiced drop kicks with great success. He booted the ball be- tween the uprights IS times out of 25 tries.

FURTHER EASING OF MONEY
 DEVELOPED YESTERDAY,
Rate For Loans of Two to Six Months Reduced to Per Cent.

New York. Nov. 17.--Further easing or money for virtually all periods was the most noteworthy financial develop ment today. For the longer dates two to six montehs-the rate was re- duced to 5 per cent, while some 30-day loans were made at a shade lower. A considerable part of the money put out at . per cent represented renewals of loans made at 6 to per cent shortly after the outbreak of the war.
 Call money ranged from 4 1-2 to 5 per cent, the lower rate prevailing where choice collateral was offered. In- terior financial institutions were free lenders in this market and sentiment. so far as it dealt with the monetary situation, was materially heartened by the smoothness with which the new banking system of the country was put into operation.
 Dealings in unlisted bonds and stocks werc again in liberal volume, but no advances from the previous day were recorded. On the curb adddi- ard Oil subsidiaries and in the un- official market for active listed stocks a greater disparity between bid and asked prices was observed.
 Another advance in high grade cop per to 12 cents denoted a better in- quiry for the metal by consumers, but conditions in that industry as a whole continued unsatisfactory mainly be- cause of the British embargo on our exports. A significant development of the export situation was offered by the report that a large amount of raw cot ton was being shipped to Germany in American vessels.
 Readjustment of the foreign ex- change situation was being automatic ally assisted by the heavier exports. The merchandise outflow from this port for the week was s6, ,000, 900 great than s7 hl4A FHRaaAdfy3c~ Iuealx and al. most $7,0oo.000 more than in the same week 1a2s< year. So for this year local exports almost equal those of 1918.

third touchdown. In this latter Sco- vii. a halfback, received the forward pass and not the Yale end
 From these plays 1t can be seen that two ends, may be the one selected to carry the ball when 1t is advance1. Yale in it's game against Princeton saw to it that the man who nrst re- ceiyed the ball was well protecteo, so that not once was the ball or the man handling it interrupted. When the lateral passes began several Princeton men were over the line of scrimmage.
 Man With Ball Waite.
 If the Princeton men went for the man who had the ball the latter waited until one or two were upon him and then passed it laterally to team mate. Two of the Princeton men were thus put out of the play. If the re- naaining members of Princeton who had broken through converged upon the Yale man who then held the pail he would pass it to another teammate or would throw it forward to one of his ends.
 Consequently those six men who may be the ones chosen to advance the ball must be watched. 'tLet each man take care of a man. is the solution some have offered for the play, but appar- ently Yale was just waiting for such an opportunity, for Princeton in fol- lowing out this plan of defense nat urally weakened its secondary defense, whereupon Yale sent Wilson, Knowles or Scovil through the Princeton line on straight bucks,
 From the stories and talk of the lat eral pass, many have come to the conclusion that such a system is Yale.s sole method of rushing. This howev sr. is not the case or at least did not prove to be in the Princeton game. If the lateral pass does nothing but pull the opposing team in the air, it &C., complishes much toward helping YaIe to use it's straight and cross bucks and end around plays to success.
 Men, Work Out PIays.
 Another characteristic of the lateral pass play as used by Yale is that much In the working of it is left to the individual initiative of the men who handle it, and when attempts were made to check a double pass it was turned into triple pass; and when attempts were made to block the fourth back in the advancing lateral line of Yale backs the second or third back, seeing he had the best opportuni- ty to advance the ball, would carry 1t forward instead of passing.
 The best defense for the play that yet has been spoken of is an offense that is it's superior in scoring touch downs. In its nine men on the line play Harvard has shown a wealth ,,l power and possibilities, and especial ly in its game with Princeton two weeks ago Coach Haughton's team found little trouble in gaining ground in the old delayed pass play.
 In that game Harvard really opened up for the first time, save for the triple pass to Wilcox in the Penn State game that netted Harvard the points necessary to tie the game. Many took that play to indicate that Har- yard, too. had a well grounded pass ing system under cover and ready tc offer when the occasion demands it Whether or not this is so is a matter that has not yet leaked out and whicn probably will not be known until the Yale game.

BIG DEMAND FOR

NINE TEAMS TIED IN
 SIX DAY BICYCLE RACE Leaders Still Have Mark of Previous
 Years Beaten,

New York, Nov 17.-A day of hard riding by the six day bicyclists at Madison Square Garden was barren in bringing about changes in the rela- tive standing of the seventeen teams in the race. Nine teams remained tied for the lead with 990 miles and laps to their credit at Il p. m., with four others lap behind. Two teams still tratled two laps further back and one was a hopeless last, seven laps behind the leaders.
 As the result of frequent sprints. at one time early tonight, the leading teams were more than If miles ahead Of the record. As the evening wore on, however. the pace had dropped off somewhat. but at II o'clock the lead CTS still had the mark of previous years beaten by ten miles and six laps.
 The record for the filth hour was 979 miles and z laps, made by Root and McNamara in 1913.

GAN HARVARD BREAK UP
 YALE's LATERAL PASS PLAY?
Crimson Men Doubtful as to What
 Defensive System Can Be Utilized.

t'Has Harvard a sure defense for YaIe's lateral pass play, and it's yet undemonstrated possibilities"
 This question. more often unanswer- ed than answered. is now going the rounds of the football world. The an swer that usually has come is: If there is any defense for the play, Percy HauRhton will have the team will grounded in it." But even the most ardent Harvard man, who has any knowledge of YaIe's play and it's possibilities, seems unable to tell just what sort of a. defensive system can be utilized with success when the big Blue team gets to work.
 Two Attacks.
 Yale, in it's game with Princeton, used two of the many possible at taclzs of the lateral pass type. Each scored a touchdown. the first from Princeton's 37-yard line and the second from Princeton's 12-yard line. In the first the ball was passe dlaterally for two-thirds the width of the field. Four men handled the ball, and the fourth, who was Legore, ran 37 yards down the Princeton sideline for the touch. down.
 The second was passed laterally once and then thrown forward over the Princeton goal line to Brann, the red haired Yale end. Another of this tyue was used for a forward pass gain If 35 yards and paved the way for Yates

COTTON POOL LEGAL,
GREGORY DECLARES
Attorney General Tells President
Loan of S135,OOO,OOO Vio-
IateS No Law.

The last obstacle in the way of carry
ing out the plan for raising sl35. .0O0, 900
cotton loan fund has been overcome by
decision by Attorney General Gregory,
holding that the pool is not prohibited
by the Sherman antitrust act, the Clay
ton act, or the trade commission act.
Mr.. Gregory holds that nothing in the
nature of price fixing, restriction of
production. division Of territory, or con-
troll of markets is involved. II am un-
able he says, Ito see how such plan
could be thought to fall within the pur-
view Of the antitrust laws"
In submitting the matter to the At
torney General for decision. President
Wilson said the circumstances with re-
gard to the handling Of the cotton crop,
which have been created by the Euro
pean war;" are most extraordinary, and
seem to justify extraordinary action"
The Attorney General. in giving ap-
proval to the plan. points out that loans
tor as to producers. that the members
Of the syndicate will be free to make
other loans, and that borrowers will
be under no restraint as to the price or
the time at which they may sell their
cotton.
'Tn short" the Attorney General
holds, the plan simply provides the
cash which is imperatively required to
lquidate the Indebtedness incurred in
the course of raising and marketing the
cotton crop, but which cannot now
be obtained from the usual sources Of
supply because of the extraordinary
conditions prevailing in the money mar
kets and in the trade Of the world
AS further justification of the plan
Attorney General Gregory pointed out
that countries which take annually
5000. 900 bales of cotton, more than half
the crop. are now engaged in war,
which creates an extraordinary condi-
ton. The amount of the fund, he says,
is barely more than 1 per cent Of the
total outstanding loans and discounts
of banking institutions in the United
States, and is much less than the
amount of cash usually employed in
marketing the cotton crop.
AS final justification Of the plan he
points out that even this small part Of
the banking capital will not become
impounded as a result Of the plan, but
upon being loaned will return at once
into general circulation.
