Sayville Awaits Arrival
of NayV Wireless Men

From 4 star Correspondent n TIC Triburel
Sayvile, Long Island, July s.-The
powerful wireless station of the At
lantic Communication Company at Say
vile will be taken over tomorrow noon
by the United States government.
Captain Billiard chief of the naval
wireless service, will reach Sayville at
IL o'clock and go at once to the plant
The six operators will yield their
keys to as many experts from the Navy
Department and the guard about the
place will be supplanted by American
bluejackets. BY tomorrow night the
station will be running on the same
basil as the one at Tuckerton, y. j..
which was seized by the government
soon after the outbreak OF the war.
Reports to the effect that the plant
had passed into the hands Of the Navy
Department this afternoon were pre-
mature. Nothing official will be done
until Captain Billiard arrives. The
electrician and bluejackets who have
been ordered 20 report for duty in con-
nection with the operation of the sta
ton have been drifting into Sayville
all afternoon. 1t is expected that the
Federal force will number twenty, in
GLIDING officers
While it is impossible 10 learn ex-
actly what the Department of Justice
has urearthed, there have been per
sistent reports Of strange messages sent
from Sayville station. II is believed
that many innocent appearing com
mercal messages have been subjected
10 careful inquiry and their sources in
vestigated in the belief that they car
ried a double meaning.
The three censors, Lieutenants
Clark, Coggswell and Windsor, assert
they do not know the specific reasons
for the governments action. Since the
official inquiry began they have con-
stantly refused TO talk about the mat
ter. One fact may be stated with GER
tainty. however to-morrow's action
will not he based on the reported &C
QUESTION by the wireless company Of
new radio apparatus invented by DR..
Kitsee, of Philadelphia.
The statements made by the inventor
are treated very lightly by the naval
wireless experts. The idea that the
Ktsee "tapless wireless" device could
be used under the noses of the censors
without their knowledge is secuted.
The general opinion is that the station
has been caught with the goods on
certain messages.
Sayville is seething with excitement
tonight. The natives do not know Just
what 20 expect. Some Of them seem
to expect the arrival of few warships
of the point and companies Of marines
marching down the streets. Even the
moving pictures fail to attract.

.SEWANEE IS HELD ID TIE BY CHATTANOOGA Tigers Outplayed-Fight at Close of Game Features
 Afternoon

Chattanooga November 13-(Specal.)
 Upon field which was a perfect quag
 mire of mud as the result of steady rain which lasted throughout the game, Se-
 vance and Chattanooga battled four ter rife quarters without a score this after noon.
 The final count, to o. far from repre-
 sented the relative strength of the two
 teams, however, as the Moccasins out
 played the Tigers in every department tearing the sewanee line into shreds and completing forward passes with clocklike precision. The ball, after the first pe- riod, was always in Sewanees territory,
 the Tigers kicking almost invariably on the first down when they succeeded in
 securing the oval. Only once did &c., vance threaten, this being in the first
 quarter, when Herrings try for field
 goal went wide Vandiver attempted a
 drop kick for Chattanooga but the ball
 the goal posts.
 Squibbs at full for Chattanooga was the
 individual star of the contest. Time and time again he tore through Dobbins and
 Turner for gains of five, 10 and F yards Sutherland, Pope and Vandiver played brilliant ball for Chattanooga, while the local line stood like adamant.
 Sewanees showing was a distinct dis
 appointment to her supporters, who had
 offered odds as high as five to one upon her. A free-for-all fight, in which play CTS upon both teams and scores of spec tators participa ted, ensued at the close of the game when the Sewanee players
 tried to take the ball away from the
 Moccasin eleven. A squad of policemen restored order after a short struggle.

 set back 15 yards, but quickly regained the lost distance with a forward pass.
 Short plunges and passes placed the ball close to the Yale line.
 The Ellis fought like Vikings but to no effect. Foot by foot the Tigers tore into

It was case of 8 powerful football combination just beginning to find it. self, overwhelming by brute strength an eleven far more finished in playing tactics, but lacking the abilitNuto cope with Yale eleven fighting desperate ly. As team the Princeton machine was superior to the Blue, but the smooth Tiger juggernaut was ripped
 part by bulldog squad gone Berserk.
 Gridiron heroes rose ard fell during the struggle, but none reached the heights attained by Otis Guernsey, whose clever field goal kicking paved the way for d Yale victory. Twice in the second period Guernsey drove the ball through the Tiger goal posts when the Yale team was un- equal to the task of taking the spheroid across the line, Both drop kicks were made from near midfield and Guernsey s performance won him a place among the kicking stars of football
 Pie" Way shared the glory with Guern- sey, for 1t was his fortune to scoop up a tumble punt by Tibbott and race across the goal line for Yale's only touchdown. Ways run was one of the most sneetacu- lar features of a struggle that bristled with startling plays and tonight Guern- sey, Way, Captain Wilson and Elmer gency Coach Tom Shevlin are heroes. For Princeton nothing remains but the mem- ory of a season started in a blaze of glory and closed in the bitterness Of unexpected defeat by both Yale and Harvard.
 Close to 60,0O0 spectators thronged into the Yale football arena, filling the circu- of tS Tho txyaa I gridiron conditions were perfect.
 From the start it was seen that the Ellis had been keyed up to the do or die stage. They assailed the Prince ton warriors like wild men and strategic ally it was this fighting spirit, aided by the breaks of the game and Princeton errors, which swung the pendulum of vic tory to the Blue.
 The first quarter was without decided advantage for either team, although Yale showed increased confidence the longer she held Princeton scoreless With the beginning of the second period the Elrs tried sustained attack and carried the ball across midfield by line plunging
 A forward pass failed then and Guern- sey kicked his first field goal of the day from his own 46-yard line. For the full 54 yards the spheroid was led straight and true for the Princeton goat and as il went over the bar, .H one of the longest kicks in the history of football between Yale and Princeton, the Blue cohorts rose and waved their colors.
 Almost immediately Guernsey duplicat- ed the feat On Princeton's kickoff Captain Wilson sent the ball to midfielc and four more rushes placed it inside Proncetons 30-yard line. Here the Tigers held Yale and again Captain Wilson called on Guernsey for drop kick. The latter standing on the S6-yard line hoisted tht ball between the goal bars.
 Stung into fury, Princeton turned on the Blue and soon carried the pigskin to in
