Is question with some whether the
presence of Harris or Lloyd in the
lineup for Tech would have helped
the locals.
Tech pulled some "bones" Satur-
day. The worst was in allowing Beck

brought better results and perhaps a
goal, which would have given the
locals the victory by one point.

Centrars defeat at wilkes-Barre was

Barons played a strong game against
Tech, and only their inability to hold
the ball kept them from defeating
Tech. They gave a miserable exhibition

Mystery Note Is Found
Beside Dead Dentist

Baltimore, Md, Nov. 81. Leav-
ing a note written by some one un-
identified, to the effect that "a slow
sleeping potion would be good thing
for you to try" DR.. Kennon w. Eyer
ton, a prominent dentist, was found
dead yesterday in his downtown office.
The room was filled with gas. His
wife had thought him on hunting
trip and he was not expected back
until to-day.
While the coroner expressed opin-
ion that it was no doubt suicide, the
police are seeking to find the sender
of the note. 1t was written in red ink
and in feminine hand. 1t is believed
by the police that the person who
wrote it had some control over DR..
Egerton. His home life was said to
be ideal The note read:
II see by your appointment book
that YOU are out a good bit of late
and travel like a thief in the night
presumed you were on one of your
hunting trips. Perhaps rye was
your game. All your friends wish you
success in this kind of life. A slow
sleeping potion would be a good thing
for YOU to try"

The hunting season for pheasantss
quail, turkey, rabbits and squirrels in
this State comes to q close on Novem-
ber so. On the following day the deer
season opens when many sportsmen
will go out in the hope of bringing
down one of those fieet-footed AMI
mails. From all accounts, bear are
abundant in many of the upstate
counties this year. The season for
Bruin closes on December 15, upon
which day all upland hunting will
close for the year 1916, with the ex-
ception of coon shooting, which may
be followed until December 81.
On their way home the Army
elected their captain for next year. He
is Lawrence McEney Jones of WASH
ington, d. c. Jones is a member of
the class of 1918. He played left
tackle and is u heavyweight wrestler.
He weighs 200 pounds and has an eXl
cellent record in school.
Because of the bad season at Syra-
cuse there is a doubt as to Bill Hol-
lenback being coach next season. His
contract calls for one year.
Yale's victory was we'll earned. It
is n long time since Harvard met a
bunch of fighters like the New Haven
boys. Critics may give Harvard credit
of having the best eleven, based on the
seasons work, but it was brilliant
playing on the part of Yale that
brought the victory and the seasons
championship.

.STEELT0N SCARES
TECH HIGH TEAM
Final Game in Series Ends
With Score 6 to 6; Locals
Come Back

Until the final whistle blew in the
game between Tech and Steelton on
Saturday, the local eleven was a shaky
piece of machinery. Steelton showed
remarkable form, playing Tech al
most to a standstill during the first
half. Dayhoff was the big star for
Steelton who with Starasinic, Buck.
Coleman ana WueschinsN brought the
first touchdown, and held Tech to six
points
Soon after the game started Steel
ton was a favorite to win. Tech lost
heart when they found Dayhoff in the
game, and did not have Captain Har-
ris or Rees Lloyd to offset this sur
praise. The lineup and summary:
by Steelton and Coach Taggart won
the honors.
Steelton Too Anxious
The first score brought confidence
for Steelton but the visitors were a
little too anxious in their work, and
lost opportunities by over-confidence.
The work of Tech during the second
period would have brought Il victory
but for poor Judgment in calling plays.
Beck was the local star until Philip
elli was given his position, when he
took the ball down the line 20 yards
for touch down. Beck's crippled
leg made it impossible for him to kick
out accurately. 1t was a great game
and the Taggart bunch won high
praise. The lineup and summary:
