BRICkLEY CAUSES
 COLLEGE BREAK
N. Y. University Votes to Sever
 Athletic Relations With Trinity

New York, Nov. 2.-The controver- sy between New York University and Trinity College as to whether the lat ter would withdraw George Brickley from the lineup of its eleven in the game with the Violet here today resulted yesterday in an absolute break between the two institutions as far as a game this season is conT cerned. This determination on the part of the athletic authorities at a special meeting late yesterday aft ernoon of the Athletic Association, the Athletic Advisory Committee, and the Faculty Committee on Student Or ganizations sitting in joint session un- der the Presidency of Dr. John F." Mum, President of the Athletic Asso- citation.
 As as result of an affirmative vote on the part of this body that the football game between Trinity Col lege and New York University for to- day be cancelled, F. H. Cam, the athletic director telephoned Manager | Spofford of the Trinity eleven in or der to prevent a futile trip to this city for the latter. At the same time the Violet management was scheduled to play the New York players on Nov. 20, and were to agree to play here today instead of the later date. Bucknelrs acquiescence to the Violets proposition, in addi- tion to removing the possibility of the New York team lying idle today and thereby disappointing the student body and general public, was generally
 regarded as having a still more im-
 portant bearing upon the case. In
 place of the Bucknell game for Nov 20 it was possible for Graduate Man. ager Harry T. Fisher of Columbia
 University and Manager T. E. Schulte, Jr., of the New York eleven to agree upon that date for a game between
 the Violet and Blue and White elevens
 which will be a most welcome change in the Violet's schedule to under graduates and alumni of both institu- tions. >"
 The action finally adopted in the
 Brickley case by the authorities at
 University Heights came after the To-
 cal institution had attempted every
 means in it's power to come to sAn
 understanding with the officials at the
 Hartford college, whose eligibility re-
 quirements are not in accord with
 the rules governing amateur athletics as laid down by the intelcollegfats Amateur Athletic Association, and of
 which New York University is a nnem- } Der.

LOCALS ARE CONFIDENT.
High School Expects to Administer ., Walloping to Hartford Saturday.

The New Britain High school foot ball team is hard at work again in preparation for the opening of the league season Saturday at Electric field, when Hartford High will be the opponent. The boys have entirely re- covered from the effects of Saturdays hard game with Holyoke.
 Confidence reigns predominant in the local camp, and never has an eleVen representing the school exhibit ed any more signs of certainty of their aolhty or conquering their rivals from the capitol City than does this one. lney, however, realize that their Op ponents are a fast eleven, and are not to be caught off their guard by being out of condition in the coming fray.
 Captain Dudack is satisfied with the work that his boys have been doing during the past month. They have l won five games in succession, which is pretty fair considering the stiff op- position that is also put up against the home boys.
 One of the spectators at last Sat urday's game took notice of one bad feature among the several of the play CTS, namely, that of getting into an argument over plays. Twice Captain Dudack and Parker had slight tilts over signals and another time Dudack called Cabelus for a bone play. This should be eliminated as it is not pro- ductive of good results.
 l The management should also be i prepared to handle the big crowd that is expected to attend the game. In last Saturdays game the spectators in- sisted on crowding onto the field, de- spite the efforts of supernumerary of ficers and members of the faculty and athletic council of the school.

WILL HE, OR NOT?
Talbot Says Shevlin Will Not Be Head
 Coach.

New Haven, Nov. 2.-Nelson S. Tal- bolt, Captain of last years Yale eleven and at present one of the assistants to Frank Hinkey, said last night at the Yale club that it had not been definitely determined just what coach ing position Tom Shevlin would hold when he arrived at New Haven to- day. He did not think there was any probability of Shevlin deposing Hinkey as head coach. He said Shevlin and the other coaches who sent for in the hope that new blood in the coaching staff might give more confidence to the eleven. If Shevln did assume full control it would be only at the solicitation of Frank Hinkey and Captain Alexander Viii son. Talbott had little to say as to whether Hinkey would be retained for another year, it being his opinion that the decision rested almost en- tirely with the incoming Captain.
 Talbot remarked that Shevlin was one who could instill wonderful en- thusiasm among the men as was proved in 1910 when he came to New Haven as the result of a call similar in character to this one. This en- thusiasm would be a great help to the Blue and Talbott seemed confi- dent that Yale might redeem herself in the latter games of the season. He considered that two or three days would tell whether the Yale team was to profit from its new instructors.

HOPPE MAKES RECORD.
Champion Does Things to Japanese Champ and Could Have Done Better.

Hartford, Conn.,, Nov, 2.-In his afternoon match at the Red Stag Bill Had academy with Koji Yamada to- day, Willie Hoppe broke his own worlds record by running out the string of 400 points of 14.2 billiards on his opening shot, the previous rec ord being 317 for the first shot, made in Paris in 1911 against Cure.
 In eight innings last night, with one blank and one run of 267, Hoppe made 400 to Yamada's 174, which in- cluded two marvellous square masses half the length of the table,
 Yesterday afternoon Yamada won the string, and after getting AZ miss ed an easy single cushion position shot Then Hoppe, after one follow and three-cushion gather. started and rolled up his big string, princi- pally at one end of the table. Hoppe l played rather erratically last night, his score being 35, 1, 267, 0, 2 20, 5. 61 for a total of 400. Yamada's high run was AZ.

Princeton, N. J., Nov. 2.-When the elevens of Harvard and Princeton clash here at the Palmer stadium, Nov. 6, the most vital football game of the season will be played It seems up to this time Yale does not measure up in strength and general finish to the elevens being coached by Percy D. Haughton and Speedy Rush. Harvard and Princeton are in the upper flight in football circles. With Yale in the minor leagues this game looks to be the only chance the Tigers have to receiving a licking
 It also looks to be the only game standing between Princeton and an equal claim with Cornell to top

ENWRIGHT IN GAME.

Cambridge, Mass, Nov. 2-Harvard's S hopes for the football game with Princeton next Saturday were bright ened yesterday when Enwright, the half back who was injured in the Pennsylvania State game Saturday, re- ported for practice apparently in good condition. Enwright, besides being a powerful line plunger, has been counted upon to tighten up Harvard S secondary defense. He was kept out of the Cornell game because of an in jured leg, and when he was aurt Sat urday it was feared that he would be unable to play for the rest of the sea- son.

CUBS MUST PAY HOFFMAN S2,gs9

Chicago, Nov. "A verdict of $2,964 obtained by Arthur Hoffman against the Chicago National League Club, was confirmed yesterday in the Appellate Court. Holman was with the Cubs under contract of Feb. 23, 1911, which provided for a salary of s5,000 a year. On May 29, 1912, .he was notified by telegram he had been transferred to Pfttsburg and that tho Pittsburg club would be responsible for the salary.
 The evidence showed that during the remainder of the season Holman received $697 from the Pittsburg club and that he did not enter into any contract with 1t, relying upon the telegram from the Chicago club.

 That soaked the distant West; To think how far their teams have

 Below the laurelled crest; To think that in that land along

 To play the game with vim; They haven't any team at all
 From all their rugged hosts Except a team that crushed team
 That smashed a team of Yost's. An, yes, it's sad to think about
 The old Pacific slump, The way the West has hit the chute,
 And hit it with a bump; But when you speak of things like this

Dipping the Fedora to w. Camp.

Out of all the varied suggestions offered regarding a collegiate status in the realm of amateurism, Walter Camp leads the parade by half dozen blocks.

 No man is going to stay in college two years and work hard enough to keep up his standing for the run or playing some game as a junior or senior. For a starter, anyway. this suggestion of MT Camps is the best that we have seen.
