NEW HAVEN GAME
ATTRACTS 100000.
YaIe-Haryard Clash Draws
Great Crowd to Rally Of
contesting Teams.
CONTINUED from First pase.)

CONTINUED from First Page.)
minute for the browning effort of the
year a hard-fougbt tussle Is certain.
Largely by virtue OF recent Victories,
and by reason OF tine fact that II has
touchdown over on the Crimson, Har-
ward students are giving odds rang
ing. all the way from, 10 to to 10
May Ne Ryan.
Much interest attaches to the prob
able use by Percy Haughton of q lad
student who gained much fame as a
HEAVIER OF forward passes. He is eN-
pected to be sent into the contest.
Yale's well.known weakness against
OF saving Harvard should the blue
clad gang begin 10 whip their an.
But aside from this. It " no secret
that In Horween. Casey, and Thacher.
not TO speak OF Robinson or Murray.
Harvard has a classy backfield. No
matter what may be said OF Harry Lee
Gore or Jacques or Braden.. or any
Jerseys, the fact remains that Casey
and Horween are two OF the most
versatiie young men the football
field OF 1916 has seen.
Horween . Ppnter.
Horween In able to punt from for
ty-nve TO sixty yards every time he
swings his leg Mt q football. and
his feat In putting over Held goal
on Princeton proves he knows some
thing about drop-kicking.
LeGore. OF Yale; is fast. smar.
runner. and n hard line smasher. but
he hasn't been given the thorough
coaching dished out at Harvard and
doesn't do his stunts with the same
pep. jacques In a far better line
pilnger. In fact, the latter is the
only one OF the baekheld who COM
pares with Horween In this respect.
The Yale line seems destined TO
do the greater part OF the work for
the Bulldog this afternoon. Encour.
aged by the mountainous presence OF
Captain Black. and his spugnacious
aggressiveness, II looks to be one
OF the predestined things that Yale
will stop the crashing Harvard at
tack--at least for a time.
Tho Harvard line IL not so good
as Yale's. IL isn't so bulky and ~
did not show so well against Prince
ton. II will be Haryard's backneld
against YRle's forwards. and the dope
leans to the Crimson.

FRIGATE FRANKLIN, FARRAGUTS
FLAGSHIP DURING CIVIL WAR,
is TO BE DESTROYED

Norfolk, Va, August 27-After years
OF faithful service, the historic old fri
gate Franklin, is to end her last days
in flames. This vessel, which was
Farragut's flagship during the Civil
War, and which has been used as n
receiving ship for 35 years at the Nor.
folk navy yard, was recently sold by
the United States Government to a
Philadelphia concern for $16.OUV.
The ship is said to have $4,000
worth of copper in her hull. besides
fixtures of brass and iron that are val
liable. In order to get the valuables
out of the vessel, II will be necessary
to destroy her. This will be done by
fire at PASSPORT, Maine.
Several tugs. towing the vessel,
started to sea with their charge today.
Passing craft blew a parting salute as
she passed through the Virginia Capes
on her last voyage.
