WANT TRINITY PLAYER
RULED OFF TEAM
New York University Takes Action
Against George Brickley of Trinity
Two Teams Soon Meet.

New York. Oct. 2s.-Following the
policy adopted by Williams last week,
the New York university athletic coun-
ell announced yesterday afternoon that
a professional protest has been sent
to the Trinity college faculty commit
tee on athletics, suggesting the dis
qualification Of George Brickley, a play
er on Trinity's team.
The communication as a preface calls
attention TO the long existing custom
of holding an annual football game be-
tween the two institutions on election
day. As the next game on the schedule
is with Trinity, New York, although not
threatening any definite action for the
violation OF the intercollegiate rule
which forbids the playing of man who
has received any remuneration for his
athletic abilities. makes mention of the
fact that the faculty at the Heights
has enforced this rule strictly at all
times and often has debarred men from
competing in college sports because they
were ineligible as a result Of this regu.
lation.
At the same time New York universe
ty clearly intimates that il is not only
the playing OF Brickley on Tuesday TO
which is an objection, but also Trinity's
failure to comply with the rules laid
down for the regulation Of amateur ath.
letic teams. The note also showed the
unequal basis upon which the game
would be played II professionals were al
lowed on one team and not the other.
II further requests that II any men on
the team are ineligible according 10 the
regulations Of the Intercollegiate Ath-
letic association they be removed be-
fore Nov. 2

test we're 4. ,. Jones, chairman Of the

tions. and Martin White, first vice pres
ident Of the athletic association.

Until Government Agent In
vestigates Transporta-
ton Conditions
BOSTON is ASSURED
BY MAYOR CURLEY
General Strike Would Affect
$4,000 Men, 1t Is
Believed

Boston, Oct. 2s--That the calling Of q
general transportation strike in Boston
will be postponed until james A. Smyth
representing Secretary Wilson of the de-
partment of commerce and labor, has
had a chance to make an inquiry, was
an assurance made to Mayor Curley at a
conference over the freight handlers
strike in city hall yesterday. This pledge
was made by officers of the Central La
Dor union, who represented the freight
handlers at the meeting. The Central
Labor union has no power to call gen.
eral strike, but it was said at the meet
ing that no general walk out could be
caused without its Endorsement.
Mr. Smyth arrived in Boston yester-
day to see what the government could
do to avert traffic tie-up in the Boston
district He attended the city hall meet
ing and his presence seemed to give the
representatives of labor hope that the
threatened transportation, which would
affect more than $4,000 at the outset,
would be averted.
Although invited, none of the three
railroads sent ENJOYS to the meeting.
Letters, however, were received from all
three by the mayor. The Boston u
Maine and the Boston & Albany took
the ground in their communications that
there was nothing to arbitrate," and for
that reason no good reason obtained, IL
was said, why they should be represent.
ed. The New Haven was more cordial.
The letter from that road said that Off
GERS of the road were in attendance at
meetings yesterday in New York and
New Haven, but promised that when
President Elliott returned 10 the city he
would call upon the mayor and explain
verbally the position of that system.
The Central Labor union was repre-
sented at the meeting by II. z. Jennings,
president; John Mcdonald, vice presi-
dent; and John Senton of the executive
board. Arthur Huddell, business agent
of the Building Trades council of Bos-
ton, also was present, as was the mayor.
At the close of the conference Mayor
Curley issued a statement in which he
declared at is difficult to understand the
attitude of the railroads in view of the
extremely reasonable position taken by
the employees"
The officials of the C. L. L. told the
mayor the contemplated transportation
strike would involve 3,T00 truck team
sters, 1000 other teamsters, including
those employed by department stores,
and a great number of stationary en-
gineers employed in power houses. The
clerks Of the Boston & Albany and the
New Haven are affiliated with the A. +.
OF L. and would probably strike. The
clerks of the b. & NJ. are connected with
the Knights of Labor and their action
IS regarded as problematical.
Mr.. Smyth's investigation of condi-
tons began yesterday afternoon. On mis-
report will hang great freight tie-up.

SHELLS EXPLODE
CLOSE TO KING GEORGE
Four Projectiles Land Close BY During
Visit To Allied Trenches With
French President.

Paris, Oct. 2s.--Four shells exploded
only 200 yards from King George of Eng
land and President Poineare of France
during their visit to the front Tuesday,
according TO Temps correspondent back
of the firing line. The king and the
president, with the prince of Wales and
General Joffre, says the dispatch, had
taken a point of observation when a
German battery fired two heavy salvos,
resulting in the explosion of shells near
the official party. The party left shortly
afterwards, fluctuations being exchanged
between the British ruler and the French
executive and the high officers at hte
front,

ment said extensive housekeeping ex.

Old Names for Battle Cruisers.
Six battle cruisers are provided for in

gested that the following names be Civ
en- them: flagship, the Bonhamme
Richard the Ranger, the Lexington, the
Constitution, the Constellation and the
Intrepid The Bonhomme Richard and
the Ranger were the famous raiders of
John Paul Jones The Lexington was
the flagship of Commodore Barcy, the
father of the American navy, and was
probably the first American warship to
cause an enemy vessel to strike her
eolors. The Constitution and the Con-
stellation would commemorate the
achievements of the navy in the war OF
1912, while the Intrepid would bring TO
mind the brave act OF Decatur in the
war with Tripoli.

Outstanding that has been forged by the
Big Three, is the action Of Capt. Aleck
Wilson, last spring, in inviting here
Frank Click and Ned Mahan, the Prince
ton and Harvard captains, for confer
ences on several occasions. They dis
cussed all sorts of questions connected
with the coming football season. New
Haven being geographically, centre be-
tween Princeton and Cambridge the con-
ferences were all held here The re-
suit was the closest bond of sympathy
that was ever interviewer into the foot
ball teams from the three big universe
ties for single season. Yearly every
executive detail which could be consid-
cred was discussed and adjusted and
the sport was put on a firmer basis
than ever before by the talks and Wis
its.
Capt. Aleck Wilson summed up the
visits and the talks, and also showed
his own calibre as sportsman when he
said recently in talking to friend OF
the visits of the Harvard and Princeton
captains;
''Ned Mahan and Frank Click are my
personal friends. / have known them
both for years and pride their friend
ship highly. Why shouldn't we be close
friends as football captainsf Why
shouldn't we talk over together the
things that we regard good for the
sport? We may be able to avoid mis-
takes if we do so. We all love football
and, if we can make it better, we want
to. It's the greatest game that was
ever invented and we all want to i'm
prove it if possible. "When Ned Ma
han and ! or Frank Click and ! get on
the field we are going to try our best
to win by every fair means We know,
but when the game is over, I'm going
to take the other captain by the arm
say: Ned or Frank where's the
party tonight"

And Rather SHES at Har-
wards Request for Re-
instatement
OF FIVE ATHLETES
RECENTLY BARRED
Kindly Feeling Has, How
ever, Cemented Ties
Between Them

New Haven, Conn.,, Oct. 2S.-Although
Yale has received a formal request from
Harvard that Harry lie Gore and Billy
Easton Of the football eleven and Mil
burn, Pumpely and Rhet of the baseball
nine be allowed to compete again IN
Yale athletics no such communication
has been received from Princeton.
1t is doubtful, however, whether Yale
would declare the five athletes eligible
again, even with request from the New
Jersey institution. The opinion is held
bv tho Vale athletic committee that the
athletes violated rule that was clear
ly defined, although the circumstances
were cxtenuating in nature, the athletes
asserting that they placed themselves
in the hands of their coach, Tommers.
and Captain Middlebrook in making the
arrangements for their stay at Quogue,
L. l., and that they thought that they
were safe from ineligibility invasion
danger in leaving the details to the base
ball officials.
A member Of the Yale eligibility COM
mittee said yesterday:
"Yale acted on the cases on their
merits, on the evidence presented and
will act on all such cases frankly, with
the rules considered as they stand, not
what they should or might be. II the
rule is a bad one Princeton, Harvard
and Yale must work out a better one,
but we purpose to live up to our own
laws"
Instead of break between Prince
ton, Harvard and Yale being made pos
sibIe by the incident, the three have been
drawn more closely together than ever
before and break been made impossi-
Bile for years, if at all. The case of the
five Yale men has been the first test
of the new triangular athletic agreement
for which Yale has been striving in
years. Yale men believe that they have
convinced Harvard and Princeton of
their sincerity in living up to the ath.
letic requirements and one OF the most
prominent athletic officials in Yale said
yesterday that Yale regarded Priceton
athletics exceeded by none in their free
dom from ineligibility violations.
With this mutual good understanding
among the members the air is cleared
for taking up the large number Of cases
which will be considered before long OF
athletes from the three universities.
The task of efecting a perfect under
standing had been completed and the
recommendation of the Yale Daily News
that triangular committee from the
three universities be chosen is believed
at Yale to be a feature TO be carried
out in future football seasons.
Eligibility committees Of the three
universities are innovations of recent
date. Formerly the eligibility compii-
cations were settled by the athletic
committees, but the wrangles which
arose are now regarded as historic and
impossible of repetition. Certainly no
Yale athlete will be retained in sport,
who is regarded by Princeton and Har-
ward as Ineligible.
The formation Of the joint eligibility
committee of the three universities is
all that is now felt 10 be necessary 70
make permanent the good understanding
winch has mutually been reached

UNDER-SEA SPEED is
THE SOLUTION
Naval Officials Believe that it is More
Essential Than Faster Vessels
On the Surface.

Washington, d. c., Oct. 2s.--If subma-
rines are to made more effective, naval
experts believe they must have greater
cruising radius and greater speed in
travelling under water to escape more
readily from their enemy on the sur
face. Discussion among naval officers
has developed that underwater speed
and radius is the important thing and
not speed on the surface. This is be-
lieyed to be the lesson of the European
war and the condition in the North sea,
which has enabled the British to put an
end for the present to the German sub
marine activity. The British navy is
now said TO have sunk an inLnmerable
host of small boats searching for sub
der-water craft shows itself the little
boats "cover" the sea for miles around
and the fate of the submarine is sealed.
II the submarines developed a high speed
under water they could rid themselves
of this danger.
For this reason, il is stated that Con-
gress. when il inserted provisions in the
naval appropriations bill calling for high
surface speed for submarines, was en-
tirely misled 1t is even contended that
the large seagoing submarines costing 81
100000, may not be one bit more efiec-
tive than the coast defense type, for
the reason that while they will have a
greater surface cruising radius their abil-
itv 10 escape under water will be no
greater than that of the 500-ton craft,
costing about 100000.
II is oontended that the coast defense
type OF about 500 tons is too small and
that the German U.boat type, about 500
tons, is ideal and has never been inn
proved upon in respect 10 size. What
ever the lack Of ability OF the U-boats
TO escape from their pursuing enemies
in the North sea, they have shown a
good cruising radius. They have demon
.tratcd. IL is said, that they can remain
away from their base for twenty-one
LAYS. and il is doubtful If any Of the
submarines now in commission IN the
'nited States could do that.
