TENER TAKES ISSUE
Players Contract Has Clause Agai
 Transforming, Says National Ieae Head-Other Clubs May Be Fine

New York, Oct. 25.-Pfesid1 Tener of the National league, ta1 issue with David L. Fultz, presid { of the Players Fraternity, who
 protested against the contemplat i action of the national commission flning ball players for barnstorml after the league season is over. Tener said that in each cpntrl signed by the player there is a ,claI in which the player agrees not play after the season without consI of the commission. This clause N inserted, he said to protect territo4
 rights of the different clubs.
 The National league president { clared that the commission has pow to fine players for any such infractj of the rules, but would not say \ such fines have been levied agafl the Boston American players for pI ticipating in a game at New Haverl few days after winning the worlI series. He asserted that the M York Nationals and Philadelpl Americans, and several other indiva ual players also had violated tn contracts in this respect and addi There undoubtedly will be ga eral disciplining."

Cornell Practice Severe.

Ithaca, N. Y, Oct. 25.-Cornell aft CT a long preliminary drill, which was devoted chiefly to kick-offs and punt ing from scrimmage formation, had a long scrimmage between the varsity and scrubs yesterday, which lasted until dark. Three varsity and one second- string man had to leave the lineup because of injuries of so strenuous a character was the engage ment. The men who appear to have been most seriously hurt are Bretz, who was on the varsity at left half, back in place of Benedict and Jew cit, at right tackle. These men suffer ed leg injuries which may keep them from the Harvard game on Saturday. In addition to these two, Miller left guard, who already had been on the side lines for ten days, was forced to leave the scrimmage yesterday, and Bard, big sub guard, also had to re- tire.
 Several changes were made in the varsity as a result of the injuries and for other reasons. Carey was placed center in place of Brown, while Sut- ton went in at right tackle and Taylor at left guard. zander and Ryerson played the ends. In the backfeld Dr. Sharpe sent Hoffman to the scrubs and brought Eaucke to the varsity from the second team. Van Horn was used at left half on the scrubs, and distinguished himself by making several terrific drives through the varsity line.
 It was learned yesterday that there is a strong possibility that Ecl1ley, right end on last years 'varsity team, who has been unable .to-. play so far this year because of a technica1ity in volving summer baseball af' playing, would be declared eligible and would get into the Harvard game.

Colgate Offensive Weak.

Hamilton, N. Y, Oct 24.-Coach Harry Bankart put the Colgate foot ball squad through a long practice yesterday afternoon, the first one of the week. The men who played in Saturdays game came out without an injury, but in yesterdays practice several men were hurt. Watkins, bacl1field man, received kick in the knee which may keep him out of the game for a week. Brewer, a new linesman, suffered from the loss of four front teeth. Barton has been out of active practice several days be- cause of poor condition.
 During the course of play the sec ond team gained repeatedly on the varsity while the first string men

period against the Ithacans worked on it's new plays, which bears out the earlier belief that the Crimson intends to have more in the way of attack than for the usual run of midseason games. The coaches kept right after the Varsity, which. while running it's own offense, worked defensively against the scrubs, who were using plays the scouts have seen the Comedians use this fall.
 Harvard has kept very close tabs on Cornell this season because of last years defeat but it is believed here that Al Sharpe will have some new methods of attack which he has not allowed his team to use in it's pre- Iminary games.
 Yesterday afternoon all the liar ward cripples were on the sidelines watching the Varsity play, except Clark, Sagar, and Bond. The coach- es, however feel that in emergency they will be able to use any player they want with the exception of Bond whose shoulder is improving very slowly. There is now no doubt that Harvard will be considerably stronger against Cornell than in any other game, but even so the players are not overcoDfident that they will be able to wipe out last years defeat.
 Head Coach Haughtpn, however always is optimistic and the team has made so much progress in the past ten days that real rally Sat urday would not surprise him in the least. The team as it worked yes- terday included the regular end rush. CTS Coolidge and Harte. Wheeler was at left tackle and Gamer back in his usual place on the right wing.
 Snow was again at right guard, where he was making such satisfac- tory progress when hurt two weeks ago. Harris continued at center and the regular back field, with Robinson at quarter, started the days drill While so many of the former first string men have been hurt, men like Wheeler, Thacher Horween and Casey have made great progress and henceforth it will be a question of the other men fighting to regain their places rather than being put into the nrst lineup immediately after they are ready for hard work.

 There will be no change in the personnel of the Penn team for the Pllttsburgh game, Coach Folwen an- nounced yesterday afternoon. Berry was on the field yesterday afternoon and hls kicking was as good as that in practice before last Saturdays game. Folwell also announced that Berry would do the bunting in the Pitt game A new trainer joined the Penn squad yesterday afternoon. He is Mike Dee, who keeps the Phillies in trim.
 Billy Neill, the guard, paid a visit to Coach FolwelI, and he asked the permission of the head coach to have his case retried by the faculty com- mlttee. He pointed to the fact that Harry Legore had a second hearing. at Yale, after being declared ineligi- ble to play this season. Manager Lovett will talk the matter over with NeilI, and if he thinks that Nei11 has any grounds he will again place the matter before the faculty commit tee.

 Jacques Bingham and Neville, the other players used in this game, lived ID to their regulations as dependable hacks. Jacque~ is one of the hardest line plungers of Jones' corps. He hits the line in a manner that recalls the days of Hale, Coy and Owsley. Bing ham displayed a tendency to fum ble the pigskin, but this no doubt was traceable to his injured shoulder.

The Leading Three.

The three star Eastern backs last fall were Mahan, Barrett and Ol1- phant. The three slightly in advance of the field so far are Le Gore, Berry and MT. Oliphant again
 Le Gore and Berry have no soft as- signment reaching the heights held by Mahan and Barrett, but the star or the current season always looks to be the greatest.
 The three named, however, are not certainties. Pittsburgh U. has more tran one fine back. and before the year is out both Harvard and Cornell are pretty sure to enter one candi- l date.
 In the West, Johnny Maulbetsch will get his chance to show agains' Cornell, Syracuse and Penn.
New Britain herald., 1916-10-25

The argument between Pittsburgh and Cornell supporters may be con- tinued from last winter when both were claiming the crest. If Cornell can get by Harvard the Ithacan array isn't likely to be headed unless Y ost and Folwell, two great coaches, can accomplish budding young miracles. But where last season there were two unbeaten elevens in the East, this campaign may very likely furnish at least three. Tn which event the December din will be terrific, if not deafening

THE BRIGHT BLUE HOG.

A Massachusetts, fancier has sue
ceeded in producing a strain or breed
of blue hogs. A ST. Louis paper re-
lates that Brewer Busch has bought
three of the animals and will go extern
sively into the propagation of sky blue
porkers. The struggles of the breeder
to produce this strain were long and
arduous. 1t is told how he first suu-
ceeded in producing a white hog, then
a red one and now the ultrama rine
blue pig grunts in the paatial stys of
many are able to sympathize with the
long and anxious struggle to produces
white and red hogs. But they will Won
der why he didn't send out to an Iowa
farm and pick up a few Jerseys white
and red without struggling so.
But the blue hog will be hailed with
cheers, three rousing ones. With the
advent Of the azure animal arrives the
esthete to enter the hog business.
heretofore we nave paid more atten-
ton to the live weight of Iowa hogs
and tn price per cwt. at the stock
yards than to the color; henceforth we
shall seek variety in hogs as in holly
hooks, the color scheme of the pig pas
ture will occupy quite as much as that
of the parlor. Hail the hog in shades
of baby blue, ultramarine and Alice.
Imagine the hog yard of the future
with it's riot of color like a Japanese
flower garden; for We shall not stop
with the red and white and blue but
exhaust the prism, combine and bou-
quet the colors and make our erstwhile
mortgage raiser and present auto sup
ply a thing of beauty, a porcine rain
bow, a scream of color.
Now will some hog scientist get to
work on the item of fragrance. A hog
that blossoms as the rose should smell
as sweet.

1t was simply impossible to supply the
hungry hordes which flew to the res-

in the proceedings. Men fought, died
and bled for sandwiches and coffee.
One waitress going thru the hall
with fourteen sandwiches in her arms,
which were to be delivered on a GER

took the top one off and handed her
a dollar. Immediately thirteen other
men did the same thing, and in less
