tween the center of town and the

ing the law requiring two city IL
cense tags. is a question 10 be set
tied when the investigation now
underway is completed. A mum Der
of cars bearing signs "For Hire"
were carrying but one city number.
or at least, one was so hidden away
that an investigation could not dis
cover il. and this led to the sup
position that there was something
wrong.
No. 40 Repeater.
one operator of a bus, which. 10y
the way. bore two license plates
said that he had noticed, earlier in
the evening, that several numbers
were repeating. and mentioned par
ticularly city license number 90,
which. he said, was borne by two
cars. Apparently. a number Of
pairs of cars we're operating on one
city license between them. each car
of the pair taking one plate.
With this idea in mind, the inves-
tigator took the numbers of some
"A cars which were displaying but

to get the numbers Of several more
but for the timely Intervention of
two of the striking carmen who OBJ
jected 10 the process Of investiga-
tion which was underway. and who
caused a policeman to question the
investigator. Explanations would
not be accepted and a trip to the
captains office was made neces-
sary.
Investigator Threatened.
1T took but short time 10 set
matters right. However, the even
ing's excitement was not entirely
over. for threats on the personal
safety Of the investigator were
made by one Of the drivers who
was suspected. a close inspection.
at the request Of the driver, reveal
ed the fact that half-inch section
OF a second license plate protruded

he was not entitled To the suspicious
looks which were cast in his direc-
ton
Several Of the drivers questioned.
explained that they had lost their
license plates. and two produced
written statements from City Comp
troller Manning TO the effect that
one plate was sufficient for them.
These were not counted in the IA
mentioned above
Strikers were ineensed at the in
vestigation. and iitney bus owners
were incensed because cars which
had not paid their fees were allow
ed 10 collect the money of the rid

New Haven, July I'm their ini-
tial effort to resume athletics since the
war was declared, Yale. Princeton and
Harvard are likely to take up fresh
man sports These will probably be
begun this fall but there is little like
1ihood that any varsity contests will
be played till the close Of the war.
The varsity football schedule which
was arranged last winter to be played
during October and November will
probably be cancelled, although such
action will not be- ordered till after
the conference Of colleges take place
in Washington, beginning August 2.
Yale athletic ofi1cials state that they
see no chance of holding any varsity
athletics this fall but no complete
policy will be announced till after the
coming conference, except that all
sports at Y ale will remain subservient
to military activity and to the need BY
the country of Yale undergraduates in
the present war crisis.

to the national administration for mil
itary needs" said a Yale athletic Of
fetal last night .4Till the war closes
there can be no sports at Yale which
do not play secondary part to mill
