CHAIN co. PLAYS
 ARMS TOMORROW

The games scheduled for Newfield park tomorrow afternoon should draw the largest crowd of the season. as this is the first opportunity the fans two local teams for the city cham pionship., It is understood that the Arms manager has engaged several players from out-of-town, while the management of the Chain team finds his team strong enough as it appear ed in the game last Sunday.
 A strong rivalry exists between sev- eral players on both teams, owing to the fact that some members of the Arms team were not considered

 The Carlisle Indians arrived in New Haven today and held practice at Yale field in preparation for their game with the Winchesters tomorrow morning. It will be the first time in many years that the Indians have played in the Elm City.
 It is said Jess Willard is not any too anxious to fight again. He weighs close to 800 pounds and would need about two months of hard train ing to get into condition. Tex Rick ard has been trying to get Willard to sign for a match but after a confer ence yesterday announced that they had been unable to come to terms. Willard's managers, who are anxious to get a share of some easy money, are urging him to battle again and Rickard hopes to get the champions signature within short time. It is probable that Fred Fulton will be Willard's next opponent. Willard has drawn the color line so that elimi- mates Sam Langford. He says Le- vinsky and Dillon are too small.

CORNELL PLAYERS
 IN GOOD CONDITION FOR PENN CONTEST

Atlantic City, N. J.. Nov. 2s-The ,ornell football squad reached here at loon yesterday, passing through Phil .delphia on the way from Ithaca, and ater went out to Inlet Park for. the ast real practice before the Pennsyl- raYia game on Thursday.
 pr. Sharpe. the head coach, said his nen were all in good condition, which Lws more than could be said of them n any previous game. During the ast week, snow, sleet and extremely told weather had prevented the de- tired amount of outdoor practice at ithaca. Many workouts had to be held in the baseball cage.
 Both pr. Sharpe and Ray Van Or man,, the end coach, agreed that a wet day would handicap Cornell more than it would Pennsylvania, as the tthacans depend more on the swift ness of the attack backed up by Shiv- Arick's remarkable bunting than it aoes on bucking the line.

was not to be broken until one of tho two universities which have suffered from the handicap was in a position to speak from the victor.s throne, is not a tribute to the good understanding and spirit of fairness among the three universities.
 It might occur to a man in the street that Yale. for example, need no have awaited a triumph over Harvard to request, or demand, more euuable treatment concerning the advancement of games. But. since the Blue has waited, the time has now come for her to speak with no uncertain voice, de- manding that to which in all fairness she is entitled. -
 Yale can do even more; she can bring about an entire readjustment of this triangular game question, thereby ooviating for all time the flaw which has always marred the otherwise per feet sportsmanship existing among the three contracting universities.

YALE LIKELY TO DEMAND CHANGE IN FOOTBALL DATES Harvard Has Unfair Advantage in Getting Two
 Weeks Rest Between Games,


 Several points which demand atten- tion are included among the after math of the Yale-Harvard game. First of all. it would seem that Yale is now in position to seek some relief from the triangular arrangement with Princeton and Harvard by which the Crimson has the advantage of two weeks rest between the games against Nassau and the Ellis, says the New York Post.
 Harvard has enjoyed this fortnight ly period of recuperation for several years, and, despite the outcome of Saturdays contest, there is small doubt that an eleven which enjoys a two weeks interval between her cham pionship games is more than likely to hold a decided edge on the team that plays a big. game on one Saturday, and follows it with another seven days later.
 E The feeling that the present order
The Bridgeport evening farmer., 1916-11-29

is over it will be no surprise if he leads the field of contenders for Jess Will lards title. It is true the new com CT is rather light for the gigantic champion, but he is plenty big enough for the others. At that he is six footer who scales around 175, and within a few months he will be car- rying 180 pounds of fighting weight. That really is heavy enough. At 180 pounds boxer com pines speed, force and strength in just the right quan- titles to get the best results.

They challenge the Mohicans, who are the pick of the city for a game for $500 a side. This is no idle boast, as the boys from the West End had the long green go begging last Sunday.

GIVE COLGATE CREDIT.

If Colgate should defeat Brown to- morrow it would be a great triumph for Larry Bankart of the New York state eleven. The little university has only STA students yet out of this pitt fully small number 'Bankart contrives to mould a team that stands among the top notchers year after year.
 Bankart has wonderful influence over his players and is popular with students and faculty alike. Up to date Colgate has sustained only one defeat, Yale vanquishing the New Workers z to 3. Among Colgate's victories are those over the University of Illinois and Syracuse. Colgate has a fine backfeld in Anderson, Spencer, Hubbell and Gillo. Spencer and Hubbell gained lots of ground against Yale. If the Colgate defense can stop Pollard tomorrow Bankart's men will win but stopping Pollard is mans size job as Harvard and Yale can testify.
 Fred Cro1ius, a former Dartmouth star and known to local fans as man. ager of the old Norwich baseball club, does not think Pollard is the greatest back Brown ever had. Cro- Illus holds that Davy Richardson was a better man than Pollard.
 The New York Sun wants to know why Braden wasn't used by Yale against Harvard. The writer says Jacques played a poor game and that a plunger like Braden could have been used to advantage. The Sun also remarks upon Tad Jones' unwillingness to let players make their letters. Attenton is called to the time when Jones was coaching

LIVESTOCK PRICES.

Sheep are. selling for the highest
prices ever known. Cattle are high
er than ever before at this time of
the year. Hogs are about 80 higher
than they were two months ago, and
the prospects for the livestock inter-
ests never looked brighter from the
producers standpoint. There is also
a strong prospect that these prices
will continue for several months and
perhaps for years. 1t looks good.
But there are two important things
to remember and consider along with
these prospects. AS the Rural Spirit
has so often pointed out, these high
prices are for the benefit of the man
who staid in the business, and not for
the inducement of others to get into
it. During the past few months we
have repeatedly urged farmers and
breeders not to dispose of their
breeding herds because of low prices,
and showed them, very clearly, that
it is the man who gets in at such a
time as this is the man who stays in,
and not the man who gets in at such
a time as this, who wins out.
Another thing. Prices now are

AND INVENTION LESSEN
THE SUFFERING FROM WAR.

Scientific experts have narrated
how terribly the scientific and inven-
tionai advances of the last half CEN
tury have multiplied mems capacities
for destruction. The war has demon
strated their statements to the lay
man. He not unnaturally asks
whether the benefits of invention and
science balance the bane. William
Osler, the scientist of medicine, af-
firms that the benefist outweigh the
evils. but DR.. John B. C. Kershaw
feels less sure.
This, he points out, is the first
great war during which the striking
progress of scientific knowledge since
1871 has had full play. The practice
of the principles involved in the cleo
trio dynamo and the petrol of gaso-
line motor, the smokeless powder
and the high explosive, even the poi
sonous liquids and condensed gases
of the fighting front have enabled
much larger fighting forces to be kept
in the field and have thus intensified
the horrors of war. The effective ap-
plication of engineering to aviation
has developed the characteristic hor-
ror of this war, the bringing of civ
ilians, even of children, within its
zone. This had previously been un-
precedented in civilized warfare.
Shipping has also been rendered dead
lier. The hidden sniper using smoke
less powder slays scores of the en-
emy before his hiding place can be
discovered. The effect upon the nor
ale is inexpressibly trying. The enor-
nous extension in the range of ar
tillery and rifle accentuates the strain
of the victims who must remain pass
i've while bombarded.
Yet the application of science to
war does not constitute a catalogue
of unrelieved wretchedness. DR.. Ker-
shaw refers to transport, surgery,
sanitation and medicine. Soldiers in
the field are the best fed men in the
world. Fresh vegetables, meat and
bread, pure water and facilities for
bathing are the commonplaces of the
firing line. Disease has been all but
banished. The wound no longer is
so serious in itself as of yore. The
percentage of recovery from wounds
is amazing. There have been ad-
vances from antisepsis to asepsis that
would astound Lister himself. What
Osler and Kershaw consider the mis-
take Of those who argue that the
evils Of applied science exceed the
advantages springs from ignorance
of the soldiers life. Death snaps its
grinning jaws in his face, but science
stretches forth a thousand hands to
snatch him from death. Spokesman

A FAIR PLAN.

The Pendleton Tribune. in an able
editorial recently. suggested that the
six candidates who are in the race for
Public Service Commissioner should
be called before joint meeting in
that city. The Tribune suggests the
meeting be held under the auspices
of the Young Men and Young Wom-
ems republican club. an organization
of Umatilla county, making the meet
ing open to the public. This would
give every candidate an equal oppor-
tunity to meet the voters, state their
qualifications for the Office and their
reasons for seeking the position.
What would be good for Pendleton
would be good for every other city
in the district. The plan is a fair
one and all candidates should not OBJ
ject to such procedure. A joint
tour of as much of the Eastern Ore
gon district as possible by these can
didates before the primary election
would give the voters an opportun-
ity to decide who would be the best
man to elect to the important posi-
tion of Public Service Commissioner

When the city of Heppner built
the new concrete bridge across Will
low creek at the lower end of Gale
street, the old bridge some seventy
five feet to the left was torn out. But
the approaches to the old bridge were
never closed or fenced in and today
the gaping hole remains there, a
menace to the lives of all travellers
and especially strangers who are not
familiar with our streets. There is
nothing to keep them from driving
or riding into the creek on some dark
night. A damage suit would possibly
follow which might prove costly to
the city.
