this big game of the season against
Princeton in the Bowl this afternoon.
The Tigers are favored at 3 to to win.
II is the first time in forty years OF
ale-Princcton games that the Blue has
entered the supposedly football classic
on the short end OF the betting.
From the talk about New Haven to-
dav II doesn't seem to be a matter OF
who will wln-rathcr. it's how low a
score Yale can hold what Percy Haugh-
ton has called the hest eleven Harvard
has faced in'five years. Most OF the
betting was that the Tigers will win BY
ten points. 1t was at even money.
In certain quartcrs-Yale quarters
there Is some confidence that the Blue
will stage another 1910 feat beating out
the Tigers through the teachings OF Tom
sherlin. Just what Shcvlin has ac-
complished with the Blue eleven Is
somewhat of a mystery. But Yale men.
particularly the old ones. are pinning
their hopes OH the Minnesota lumber
man. With some II is a suspicion: with
others u fortorn hope. but with most OF
them It's lust plain. ordinary blind
loyalty.
Prospects are that upward OF 10,OG

australian Pearls.

Pearls found on the coast of Aus
kralia are of many shapes and colors
Those under ten grains are sold by
the ounce, above that by the grain.
Color has a deal to do with the value
The white pearls go mostly to Europe
and the yellow ones to India. In Aus
tralia an ounce of good white pearls
will fetch up to $500, but sometimes
realizes only fifth Of that amount.
The yellow pearls may be rated on an
average at about half the value Of the
white ones. The seed pearls used fol-
cheap jewelry can be had for IS pei

but if the discoloration is peculiar the
value is sometimes enhanced. For the
