HONORS
 DIR. STODDARD
Gives Former Newington Boy Credit For Remarkable Showing of High
 School Football Eleven.

Dr. John E. Stoddard, a Newinrton boy and well known here as the son. in-law of the late pr. E. L.. Styles of this city, is given much credit for the remarkable showing the Meriden High school football team mas made this season Dr. Stoddard is medical ad- wiser and assistant coach of the team and Saturday night after the 23 to 0 victory over Naugatuck, he and Coach Bacon were serenaded by the team and school body. The Meriden team has scored 4O7 points this season against nothing by their opponents.
 Speaking of pr. Stoddard's work, the Meriden Record says
 Dr. Stoddard should also be men toned in connection with building up the local football team, as he has giv- en freely and unsparingly of his time and professional services to the team. and his aid and advice in coaching has been of great assistance to Coach Ba- playing season, Dr. Stoddard instituted the giving of an emblem, showing the initials of the school in blue upon a white field, to the players displaying the best work in each game. The prospect of winning one of these em- blems has been a great incentive to the boys both as testim onial of their playing prowess and as a me- mento of their friend

can't make my eyes behave"
Up to Princeton.

It is only on rare occasions that Princeton plays her best football against Yale. It just happens to be one of those things that break out in sport. In spite of Yale's long slump, the Tigers have predominated over the Bulldog but once in twelve years.
 Princeton beat Yale back in 1903. Since that date, twelve years ago, the Tigers have trimmed the Blue but once, in 1911, when Sammy White exploded the past time. One victory in twelve years, with Yale wobbling badly for the last five seasons, is nothing with which to entice a Princeton cheer. w. & J. has beaten her twice out of the last three starts. And yet all this time Yale has either been able to beat Princeton or hold her to a draw. Yale has only beaten Princeton once since 1910. But on two occasions, with apparently weaker elevens, Yale has managed to produce a tie and hold Princeton at bay.

tempt to make an end run but was nailed by Cohen without much of a gain. Hartford braced and took the ball on downs but after intellectual tries to make the distance by Deegan,
 Thorpe and Smith, the home boys took
 the ball on downs. Conley bored his way through center for a yard, and Referee Lang detected holding in the
 line, and penalized the local lads fif- teen yards. Parker quickly made up twelve yards of this aided by beauti-
 full interference on part of Conley. On the next play Dean punted outside of bounds and it was Hartford's ball near the center of the field,
 Thorpe who was being relied on by the visitors for their gains met a tartar when he tried to circle Hib- the interference and mailing the big Hartfordite. Here Hartford tried tho open style of play, using the forward pass several times without success. Cabelus intercepted a pass from Urri- chic and tore off a thirty yard run be- fore he was brought down by the fleet Deegan.
 With the goal posts in sight the side llI1cS ycllcu LOT duOLQST but the boys were now at the dtsad- vantage of running up hill and were unable to put 1t across and Dean was forced to punt. Hartford lost the ball on tumble Cabelus falling on the sphere and tho period ended with the ball in the locals possession.
 There was a brief rest between the periods, the wait however being ex- Al ing along the side lines When play was resumed Captain Dudack after imploring his boys to score once more, began to hammer Hartford line. New Britain then began the open style of battle and a forward pass, Parker to Dudack, gained several yards. It was a pretty play and we'll executed. Smith of Hartford was hurt. and time was called while he was patched up. It looked dubious for the home boys scoring when Uricchio intercepted a forward pass and it was Hartford's s ball.
 "Koppy" got Thorpe in his tracks on the first play and after this player had failed to gain he attempted to kick but the ball was blocked, but re- covered by 8 Hartford player. Again PS "OAC odCh tO pOut "Ao eS SIAo ball was thrown to him Tommy Ca belus crashed past his opponent and tore down on the amazed Thorpe, who put his toe to the ball but 1t struck Cabelus in the stomach and bounded away. Quick as flash and with a sure eye the local player picked up the sphere and crossed the goal lines for the third and last touchdown while the crowd went almost frantic. Par ker failed at the attempt at a goal.
 Parker kicked off to Uricchio and it was 8 beautiful kick the ball going to the visitors fifteen yard line. The To- cal ends were away like a rifle shot. and as a result MT. Uricchio got but a small gain. Forward after forward pass was tried by the visitors but they in most instances failed. Dean made star play at this juncture when he spilled Howard who was about to get a forward pass which might have re- suited in a score for the visitors. Cap tain Dudack whose playing during this period was brilliant intercepted 8 long pass from Thorpe and breaking

Mental Attitude.

Mental attitude on the day of the game is big part of football play. For psychology rules as strong in football as it does in golf. Yale's mental attitude has been sadly awry all all. But furnishing the correct and proper mental attitude is one of the leading courses in the Shevlin School of Play.

 191O-1915.
 Five years ago this bracing Novem- Der morning. Yale was in an even deeped rut than she is today. West Point had beaten her handily; Van derbilt, with a light eleven, had held her to a scoreless tie, and Brown had crushed her 21 to 0. After the Brown upset Tom Shevlin led a big troop of the Old Guard back and within a. week the Yale eleven was different squad.
 The coincidence is further strength 1 ened by the fact that Yale then had | to retire as head coach one of the | greatest stars, Ted Coy. just as this season she was forced to retire Frank 1 Hinkey. Hinkey and Coy are two o1 the greatest, if not the two greatest football players that ever wore Blue harness. But neither happened to be 1 cut out for a successful coach. ] It remains to be seen, as some one has said before, whether Shevlin anc 1 cast can do in 1915 what they did in 1 1910. They are almost sure to make Yale a far more formidable machine
 But whether they can rise to 1910
 heights is another yarn.

|SEES BREAK N FRE|GHTS
AFTER THE WAR IS over
James A. Farrell Says Interned Bot.
toms Will Be Partly Offset by
Shipping Being Destroyed.

NEW YORK, December 13.-The wars
effect on sea transportation and the
prospects Of break in freight rates
after the war is ended are summarized
in a statement issued today by the Ma
tional Foreign Trade Council, composed
of representatives of large manufac-
A. Farrell. president of the United
States Corporation, is chairman of the
council.
THE main question:" says the state
ment, sis how soon the break in the
freight market will take place follow
ing the cessation of hostilities. Some
shipping people hold that the break
will be sharp and sudden, others that
the very slight additions through re-
construction now being made to the
tonnage of the world will tend to ward
off any sudden decline when the war is
concluded.
TT is said in support of the latter
contention that though 100000 tons of
German and Austrian shipping now i'm
modified will be released, the shipping
already sunk will decrease the worlds
fleets by million tons, while the 2,000,-
900 tons of new shipping at present in
construction throughout the world is
not expected at once to offset the losses
due to the war.
For several years to come the vast
age due to the great war may cause
a huge movement of raw materials and
foodstuffs toward Europe which will
provide permanent employment for
very large share of the world merchant
marine. When conditions have read
justed themselves and trade has re-
sumed it's customary routine, floating
space will not be in such demand and
the slump in maritime transportation
earnings which usually follows war
probably will be in evidence again."
