YALE MUST BOLSTER
 LINE FOR TIGERS
Blue Coaches Furnished With Prob-
 lem After Brown Game.

Browns overwhelming victory over Yale has caused much gloom among Blue adherents. Prior to Saturdays s unsatisfactory result, the Ellis were looked upon as the greatest team moulded together since Ted Coys famous edeven. Yale's stock however, has descended several points below par and. there is a distinct hunch abroad in the realm that Princeton, in view of it's good showing against Harvard, will rule favorite when the Tiger and Bulldog go to grips in Pal mer Stadium, Princeton, next Satur- day. Princeton looks like the better team for many reasons and should win because Yale appears unable to overcome it's cardinal faults-poor generalship, a tendency to tumble and loose line work.
 The opinion was prevalent here Saturday that Brown treated itself to the so-caI1ed Yale strategy. Brown, in fact, beat Yale at her own game. In some of the early games this season Yale has shown an inclination to hold back and not land the needed punch until it positively had to. Thi wait ing game, so called, proved satisfac- tory in the Colgate game. On Sat urdayJ however, Brown overcame Yale's slight lead and came back in the second half with renewed vigor. Brown merely came forward and threw everything it knew into her play. She overcame Yale's defensive tactics and conquered. There is little doubt but what Coach Robinson had

and met this attack on equal terms.
 The Harvard teams that I saw in
 1911, 1912 and 1913 were primed to
 meet just such an attack. It is this
 knowledge which makes me believe that Yale will have it's troubles on of fense against Harvard. Furthermore, the Yale attack is not-good as it is strong enough to penetrate line con- sistently between tackles. And I do
 not look for Yale to gain ground by
 this style of game at New Haven and
 their passing attack to date has not
 been sound, though it has met with
 success because of the element of sur prise attached to it. Once Yale's run ming attack Is checked and it is forced
 to resort to passing the chances of success will be mostly luck.
 But Yale has a splendid card up its sleeve if the one drop kick of Legore against Washington and Jefferson is a
 goal from the field on that day was as quickly gotten off as anything Brickley eyer did. Perhaps Jones Is planning an attack such as Harvard
 used in the days of Kennard and Brickley and if so he is planning wisely. Yale will have much difficult ty in crossing Harvard's goal line. Le- gore should have little trouble in scoring by the drop kick route if his sample against w. & J. was not a lucky flash.
 Yale is not strong in bunting. The kicker is none too well protected and although Legore can get distance when not pressed his punts have gradually lost it in the two games I saw largely because he was hurried and took too much time in getting them off. His line covers punts very well and they will not be run back
 Yale is decidedly weak in defense for a passing game but Jones has prob L kI- Harvard will open the attack. as they
 have never done so. He is likely right in this for if either team does open it's attack in this way it is not likely to do much damage for the good req
 son that the passing attack is not a hap-hazard affair, but the result ot long practice and much experimenting For example when we scored in foul
 passes against Yale in sixty yard l advance the plays used were the re- suit of two years of experiment. Princeton's sole chance against Yale is an attack of this kind. Harvard has an exceedingly difficult task ahead to score against Yale by running as the Yale defense is good for such ar attack.
 Although I have been credited 1T some newspapers with saying Yale | has a stronger team than Pittsburg l have never made such a statement i Pittsburg has a more versatile team ]! than Yale and a far better offensive
 line. Yale, >unquestionably, has better scenery but it does not know the 1 football Warmers pupils possess, nei- l ther has 1t the repertory of plays ol the keen ability to adapt itself to the
 unusual in attack by the opposition Ya1e's offense is little different iron | that of 1907 when Coy and Tad Jones ran rampant. Pittsburg has all tha l and in addition Warner came very near inventing the forward pass at | tack.

VALE ONE-MAN TEAM
Tad Jones Is Trying Hard to Perfect
 a Smooth Working Machine.

Every indication points to Yale be- team is by no means a novelty at New Haven, and notwithstanding the fact that it is only as strong as it's star player the Blue has been exceedingly fortunate with it's one-man aggrega- tions. Ted Coy was the star of the last one-man team at New Haven, and, if you will remember, he proved his worth one memorable afternoon at Princeton, when he was swung from end to fullback, and practice ally by his own efforts captured a game that everyone had chalked up for Princeton, says the Brooklyn Eagle
 Harry Le Gore is the man around whom the Eli coaches are building up an eleven When he is on the field the Blue is 50 per cent. stronger than when he is on the side lines. In this respect the New Haven aggrega- ton is like the Harvard team of last year. When Mahan was in the line up the Crimson had a great eleven. When he was out of the game there was only a mediocre team on the field.
 Although indications point to a one-man team in New Haven Head Coach Tad Jones is building up a fairly strong elevn along well known and definite lines. Two years ago at this time Yale was leaping into the limelight through the mysteries of "the lateral pass" which Frank Hinlzey introduced. All of Yale's ad- mirers were throwing their hats in the air over this new game of Hinkey's without stopping to consid- CT whether it would go against a good defense.
 Today the Yale team is not trying anything new, but, on the contrary is playing its game according to methods that have been tried out again and again. If, therefore, Yale

Trading Was Broad, With Intervals of DuIIness at Middle and Later Stages. s,

New York, Nov. 13.-An undercur- rent of heaviness and uncertainty pervaded today's market, even though man ystocks were strong at times and several new records were established. Trading was broad but fltful, with in tervals of dullness during the inter mediate and later stages. Price movements were frequently so confus- ing as to indicate buying and selling of conflicting character. Senti- ment among the professional element seemed to favor lower prices, except in coppers, which again furnished the list with most of it's stability.
 Tie motors, equipments and indus trials of varied descriptions were low CT by to points and Central Leath- CT made a further extreme decline of 8 3-S points from it's recent meteortc rise. Shipping shares, Atlantic Gulf and West Indies excepted.+sWere lower with investment rails and United States Steel losing two points on the usnal heavy offerings.
 Republic Iron and the several is sues of the Gulf States Steel Company were prominent for their advances of to 10 points. all at record quota tions, as were also Utah and Ray Coppers, Atlantic, Gulf and West In dies and several of the paper group. These gains were largely or wholly forfeited in the more reacrtonary ten dencies manifested in the last half hour, when fresh selling of mercurial specialties was induced by familiar peace reports. Unsettlement marketed the feverish close. most leaders being then at or near minimum prices of the session. Total sales, with Steel and Coppers preponderant, were 1,525,0O0 shares.

 seen. From end to end it is line of tremendous strength. one which should play a stonewau defense against any running attack. It's backf1eld is as
 good as any have seen in years when it is going strong, as the backs have witnessed-Legore, Carey. Bingham and Smith-are we'll set up, have a drive that carries them forward when tackled and are exceedingly difficult to down in the open. On a dry field the attack is at it's best. On wet turf it lacks the punch and brilliancy that marks its work on firm footing, due to the principle followed in ad- vancing the ball off tackle or around the end.
 The principle of the Yale attack is an old one. I saw Chadwick and Met calf in 1903 against Harvard when they used it so successfully. From either a punt or running formation the backs
 sweep off tackle or around the end at top speed. AS the defense ruSheS over to head it off the runner quickly shifts his direction and rushes through on tackle, cutting well back to the other side of the field. The plan is to use the interference to sweep the oppos- ing end and backs on that side of the line we'll out and have the line break through and take care of the defensive
 backs on the short side when the run ner cuts in. It takes an alert team to break up such a plan of offense, es- pecially as Iegore and Carey when 1 saw them, were exceedingly difficult to down by hard tackling. It was this ability. rather than good interference,

 The most interesting problem of the present football season is at Yale where Tad Jones is attempting a ~come back" Until 1909 Yale ranked high in football but after that season matters i went from bad to worse-until the present year. Up to the time of this writing. and I am writing this article on the eve of the Yale-Colgate game, Yale has shown marked power, more than has been seen at New Haven followers Of the Blue are taking new interest in football and look forward to a glorious ending in the games with Princeton and Harvard.
 I have followed Yale's football des- tiny since 1911 rather closely, have watched some of the finest players in the country go down to defeat after defeat because of poor coaching and this season had the additional advan- tage of preparing a team to meet Yale and in that preparation witnessed the Yale eleven in action twice. The first was Yale's game against V. P. I. and the second the Yale "corne back against Washington and Jefferson, my own eleven. which had won two and tied one of the last three games play ed at New Haven. In that contest six of our players had played the previous year and from their judgment and that of scouts of other teams who make a practice of following the Yale elevens in every contest the opinion is unanimous that Yale this year is a decidedly stronger eleven than it has been in half dozen seasons. in fact since 1909. Yet Yale, in my opinion, has a most difficult task ahead to win from Harvard. Yale should defeat Princeton because Princeton lacks

 For the last two years the close followers of football have wondered why Yale did not make use of some of the styles of play which Harvard has used so successfully against Yale. The plays which Harvard has used were really founded upon the prin- ciples of the tackles-back play de- vised by pr. Harry Williams. a Yale man, and successfully used by Yale.

Paries, Nov. 13, 5:30 D. m-A wire less despatch from Madrid says that 109 persons from the American steam ship Columbian, which was reported to have been torpedoed on November 8, arrived yesterday on sailing vessels at the small port of Camurinas. Twenty five men from the Norwegian steam ship Balto and 25 from the Norwegian steamship Fordalen, also were taken to Camurinas on the sailing boats, of which there were four. The despatch says all three vessels are reported to have been sunk by torpedoes from a German steamship.
 A Paris despatch yesterday said the Columbian, Balto and Fordalen had been sunk by a German submarine. The crew of the Columbian was re- ported to have arrived at Codunna, Spain, in lifeboats.
