OF DANCE HALL
RUN BY DEL TUFO

After a hearing in which Chief Of
Police Long and police officers testi-
fed to the character OF the place, the
dance hall license of Joseph Del Tufo,
who conducts a place at 42 Garside
street. was revoked last night by the
license committee. Of the Common
Council. The police charged that
minors frequented the dance hall and
that they were served with intoxfcat-
ing drinks. Furthermore, it is al
legged that it was a meeting place for
very Young girls and that certain dis
orderly acts occurred as result or
this.
When all the witnesses had been
heard the committee unanimously
voted to revoke the license. Joseph
Del Tufo, the proprietor, was rep
resented by Nicholas La Vecchia as his
counsel, and strenuous objection was
made to the evidence of the police.
However, the police made out a
strong case and presented afhda7its
from four of the young girls who de-
ciared they had been served with beer
and whiskey in the place.
Captain Joseph Cordano testified
that he had learned that young girls
were frequenting the place, and he
detailed Patrolrnen Frederick Rath
ana John ]. Reilly. Chief of Police
Long said that he gave orders that
the hall be closed after the report OF
the officers was received,
IT was brought out that Mary La
hello. eighteen years of age, and her
sister. Ilene Labeilo, fourteen years
old had frequented the place. Pa
trolnan Reilly said that the young
girl was no taller than a table and
that she wore short skirts. On the
night the police entered the hall these
two girls were placed under arrest.
They were arraigned before Judge
Maucusi- -Ungaro, with the result that
Mary was sent to the House Of Good
Shepherd and Ilene's case was re-
ferred to the juvenile court George
Peneke. of 104 Garside avenue, testi-
fed that he was in company with
IIene. the fourteen year-old girl.
Denies Serving Girls.
Joseph Del Tufo. the proprietor, said
he was not In a position to know what
transpired in the hall. since he took
care Of serving drinks in the bar be-
low. He said that he had instructed
his special officer to throw out any
girls who were under age Del Tufo
entered a general denial TO the
charges of the police, and said that
he had never served drink of whEs-
key to any girl IF anyone says did
they liei" said Del Tufo.
Counsel La vecchla declared that
s'if this place is as bad as the police
picture IL why doesn't the chief go
upstairs before the excise board and
have the license revoked?'
ITS not too late 70 do that yet,
replied Chief Long.

and Finishing Good Season.

New Brunswick, n. j., Nov. 23.-The
Rutgers football team held the last
scrimmage Of the season on Nelson
Field this afternoon. George Forster

minutes of work against the scrub,

The members OF the team are all III
good condition, with the exception of
Wittpenn, who has bad hip. II is
probable, however, that he will be used
the greater part Of the game. Rutgers
expects to beat y. Y. U. by a COM
Portable margin, and thus complete the
season with seven victories and one de-
feat.
Captain Talman, Bracher, Elliott and
Scarr will start in the backfield, with
Wittpenn in reserve. Seller and Rookie
Teller will start at end, although Aus
tin may replace the former If his ankle
is strong enough. Mason will be at
centre, with White and Robson as
guards. Nash will fill one tackle posi-
ton and Kendall the other.
Talman, Nash, Rockefeller, Seller,
Austin and White will play their last
game for Rutgers on Thanksgiving
Day. Sanford will have a big task on
his hands to build an efficient line for
next season.

practice this afternoon in preparation
for the Cornell game on Thursday. IL
was a two-hour drill on the golf links

The men went through their work

which have been saved up for this
game were tried, and the men executed
then perfectly. q,
The lineup was definitely selected
to-day. Captain Ned Harris will not
start the game. His place at right
tackle will be taken by Russell, who
displaced him also in the Dartmouth
and Michigan games. AS result OF
this decision Bell will run the team at

The Cornell team reached here this
morning. stopped off for breakfast and
then went on to Atlantic City, where
they will remain until the morning OF

HAVERFORD SOCCER
TEAM BEATS TIGERS
Eligibility Rules and Injuries
Work Havoc with Princeton.

Princeton. n. j., Nov. 23.-Strict elig-
ibility rules and injuries have played
havoc with the Princeton soccer team,
and with FIVE regular men absent they
were no match for the aggressive Hav-
erford team on Goldies Field this af-
ternoon. The Uaverford team presented
a we'll balanced, alert combination, and
had little difficulty in taking the game,
10 |.
The Havcrfcrd offence was particu-
larly good and accurate passing and
good team work kept the play in
Princeton's territory nearly the whole
OF the game Only the first class. work
of Cater, Moore and Jackson on the
defensive saved Princeton from going
down under larger score.
All the Haverford scoring was done
in the first half. Even their shifty
tactics could not penetrate the stub
born Tiger defence in the second half.
Captain Cory. of Haverford, opened
the scoring and soon after added an
other tally. The other two Haverford
points were made by II. S. Weller. In
the second half Princeton scored its
lone point by bit of clever passing,
and an accurate shot by Miller from
almost midfeld.

LAST SCRIMMAGE FOR N. Y. U.
All First String Men Ready for Final
Game with Rutgers

Following a complete rest on Mon
day, the New York University football
team had the final scrimmage of the
season on Ohio Field yesterday after
noon. The first string men came
through the Columbia game without in
jury, and the team probably will start
intact Thanksgiving Day against Rut-
gers. The college from the banks of
the Rartan is represented ty strong
line-plunging eleven.
Most of the afternoon the coaches
prepared for the Rutgers attack, as well
as working up the Violet offence, which
has been weak in end runs. The n. Y.
u. rush line had particular attention in
the scrimmage against the scrub. The
men had tendency to charge high,
with the result that the scrub forced
the varsity line back several times.
Jordan, Zimmerle and Schwedle are all
working hard for the job at left guard.
Reilly used them all in the Columbia
game. Jordan seems to have the edge
on the other men because Of his
weight

Columbia Cub Eleven
Ends Season To-day

The Columbia freshmen will wind up
their football season this afternoon,
when they meet the Hamilton Institute
eleven on South Field. Although the
Columbia cubs are not confident Of
their ability to defeat the prep school
champions they feel that they cannot
be subdued without hard tight. The
team has shown gradual improve
ment. and Frank Fisher, the coach,
thinks il will make fair showing
against the Hamilton boys.
On a line through the Horace Mann
eleven, which has played both teams,
Himilton is the stronger. Before HAM
ilton the Horace Mann team was power
less and was defeated by score OF u
TO o, while they were defeated by the
Columbia youngsters by score OF .
TO 6. The freshmen were handicapped
in this game by the absence from the
lineup Of Bud Culloton. who probably
will be able TO play in this afternoons
game.

BROWN SECOND TEAM
HOLDS THE REGULARS
Squad Ends Hard Practice with
Snappy Scrimmage.
tBy T,leUsa 10 Tho Tribune

Providence, x. l., Nov. 23.-The
Brown second team held the varsity
football mon TO two touchdowns in the
final scrimmsse Of tho Brown football
season here to-day. The first string
men mad 70 use every trich they knew
Of TO cross the goal line twice.
The keynote of the struggle from the
standpoint Of both sides was the never
tagging spirit and every man gave the
best that was In him. To prevent any
untimely injuries the coaches deemed
u best 70 keep most OF the regular
backs out Of the battle. Accordingly
captain Andrews and Pollard watched
the scrimmage from the side lines, while
SsHton at furback was in only long
enough TO loosen up his muscles. or
the FIRST team backfeld Purdy alone
was retained at quarterback.
Jemail did the kind Of work that has
brought him into favor with the crowds
in previous games. Devine also showed
70 special advantage, making brilliant
dashes around end, one Of which went
for thirty yards and touchdown.
From an offensive standpoint, the scrub
played with vigor and were twice within
striking distance Of the first teams line.

COLUMBIA ENDS
HARD PRACTICE
FOR THE SEASON
MetCalf Puts on Finishing
Touches for the Game
with Wesleyan.
By BRIGGS

Columbia put on the last touches
yesterday for its battle on the grid
iron tomorrow with Wesleyan. The
hard scrimmage which Nelson Metcslf
had promised the squad was dispensed
with save for a ten-minute session, and
then the eleven had long drill in
moving through signals. There will be
no practice for the team to-day.
With the regulars in better physical
condition than they have been at any
time this season. Metcalf is certain
that his team will fight Wesleyan to q
standstill. He made no changes in the
lineup yesterday, and Captain Simonds
held his regular place in the backfeld,
while Donaldson and Eaves alternated
at right tackle. Littauer was in the
lineup throughout the practice, and
with his injured right knee securely
braced will be able to go through 3
hard game tomorrow, in Metcalf's
opinion.
Fred Dawson, coach of the Union
eleven, was on the field and observed
the eleven critically. He was impressed
by the speed and snap exhibited by the
players, and he ventured the opinion
that Columbia should be surprised at
itself for having turned out q team of
gridron.
Only twice did Metcalf line the team
up in formation to receive a kickoff, .
department in which the eleven showed
weakness in the n. Y. U. game, when
the man with the ball almost invsri-
ably had to make his run without in
reference. Miller got the ball after
both kick-offs yesterday found good in
reference each time
In the scrimmage the scrub was
armed with Wesleyan formations,
which the varsity found some diff
Guilty in stopping. Metcslf kept his
first team On the defensive through
out. He realizes the weakness of the
eleven in the defence and is wasting
none Of the few opportunities he has
to bolster it up.
The east goal post, which was stolen
before dawn on Sunday morning, is
still missing and a new one was or
dered yesterday. Harry Fisher Is az
far away as ever from the culprits and
has given up hope of ever seeing it
again, although he thinks it may turn
shape of small souvenirs.
There is every indication that q
crowd of six thousand or more will
see the game. Tickets sold rapidly
Yesterday and by last night the
south stand had been almost complete
" sold out. If the sale continues at
the same rate to-day seats will be at a
premium at game time, although it is
possible that the temporary basketball
beachers will be rushed into service.

FOrdham POIiSheS Up
to Meet VillanOVa

The final hard practice Of the season
was held at Fordham yesterday. With
a short scrimmage between the varsity
and a mixed eleven of scrubs and prep
players, the team completed prepare
tons for the Villanova game. The team
showed ginger and power in the signal
and scrimmage yesterday, and the eve
of Fordham's important game finds the
players in excellent condition.
The victory over Carlisle has given
the eleven confidence in its ability, and
although the men realize Nillanova's
strength. they will enter the game with
a good mental attitude. The Pennsvi-
vania team has won for the last three
years. but Fordham students think Il
,vill be a Fordhsm year.
For1ham's opponents have an env'a-
bic record this year. A strong line. n
backield equally successful with the
old and new styles OF football and Nc
Guckin's drop-kicking enabled Villa
nova TO defeat Ursinus, Swarthmore

ZURICH BOWS TO
IRSA ON THE NAT

Anton Irss, of Austria, doomed up as
candidate for honors by beating
George Zurich, of Russia, in the inter-
national wrestling tournament at the
Manhattan Opera House last night.
The end came suddenly. Zurich had his
opponent on the mat, with one shoulder
down, when the Austrian suddenly
seized him with waist lock and body
hold. In short order Zurich was
downed, the time being 1919.
Prominent competitors in the tourna-
ment have to be content with twenty
minute drawn matches. Charles Cutler
and DR.. B. +. Roller showed themselves
70 be clever wrestlers, with the latter
successfully breaking several tight
holds. Wsldeck Zbyszko, the Russian
Pole, found Demetrius Tafalos, Of
Greece, too strong, and had busy
time escaping from a number of good
holds. Alex Aberg. the champion,
downed Hans Schiling with reverse
body lock in 1889.
