GERMANS
new ATTACK ON !
WESTERN FRONT
FROM THE ALLIES

Berlin, Nov. 27.-(By Wireless to
The Associated Press. Via Sayville).-
Indications are accommodating, accord
ing to military opinion, that the En-
tente allies contemplate an offensive at
some new place on the Western front,
either as a diversion to assist the
campaign on the Somme or as trans
fer OF the principal attack to another
point.
British cannon played on Saturday
on German positions near Armentieres
and east of Arras in a manner usually
regarded as preliminary to an attack.
The French have displayed similar &C
tivity in the St. Mihiel region. Both
the Entente Allies and the Germans
are carrying out "Reminiscences in
1orce, which in modern trench war
fare takes the form of sudden move
ments against the opposing lines with
the object of bagging prisoners and
thereby ascertaining the dispositions
and plans of the opposing commands.

GERMAN VESSELS
--LATEST DASH is
THOUGHT AIMLESS

London, Nov. 27.-Except in quar-
tiers which are campaigning to GUST
Arthur ]. Balfour from the admiralty
the latest dash of German destroyers
into British waters is treated by the
newspapers as a futile junketing tour
undertaken for the purposes of home
consumption. The Times naval CORE
spondent says that as long as the
Germans care to take the risks in
volved they will always be able to re-
peat such exploits.
The Mail on the other hand uses the
incident as a basis for another severe
attack on Mr.. Balfour whom it holds
responsible for this humiliation which
exposes proud and great nation to
the jeers of the enemy"
The Mail also recalls Mr.. Balfour's
speech of Nov. 8, in which referring
TO the channel raid of Oct. 26 he said
that he was confident that if the Ger
mans came again they would not es-
cape disaster.

|HOUSATONIC FOR
TRIANGULAR RACE
DESIRE OF YALE

New Haven, CT. Nov. G.-Official an
nouncement was made today of the adop-
ton by the Yale Rowing Association OF
the course of the Housatonic river above
Derby for the spring and fall regattas.
Negotiations are under way with Prince
ton and Cornell, the announcement says,
to establish the Housatonic river as one
of the courses for the yearly triangular
race between the three universities. If
Princeton and Cornell agree. the race
will be at Derby next spring and every
third year thereafter. The growth OF
New Haven about the waterfront and in
creased shipping on the river are given
as reasons for making the change, as
practice on the harbor under present
conditions is considered undesirable. Tho
announcement adds:
"The rowing committee wishes to con-
tradict as absolutely preposterous the ru-
mors that have spread that Yale wished
to change the Yale Harvard race from
New London. Yale is satisfied in every
way with the New London course"
