Centreville, November 4.-(Special.) The most successful meet in the his- tory of the Alabama Fox Hunters as- sociation closed with the week at Gary Springs near Centreville.

New Orleans Scrapper Will Defend Title Against
 Frankie Burns

New Orleans, November 4.-Pete Herman of New Orleans, worlds ban tamweight champion, will defend his title against Frankie Burns of Jersey City in 20-round bout here tomor-
 row night Herman recently asserted
 this would be his last fight before
 he entered the national army. in which
 he was drafted. The exemption off
 cials allowed him until November 15
 to report at the training camp to give
 him opportunity to fight Burns and obtain money to help support his de- pendent parents.
 Herman was guaranteed 56000 to meet Burns, win. lose or draw. He also was allowed $400 for training ex-
 penses. The men are to weigh Ills pounds rngside. Sam Goldman of New Orleans will referee.
 Both Herman and Burns finished training today and each declared he
 never was in better shape for hard contest.
 The betting ranged from to 5, to to 5. with Herman the favorite Twice before Burns has fought in New Orleans for the bantamweight championship He fought Johnny Coul- on in 1912 and lost and was awarded draw in his match with Kid Will Hams in 1916.

 Syracuse stuck to straight football in defeating Brown to O. and this son- tary touchdown marked the margin of advantage between the attack of the two teams, but not the defense Brown was unable to tear through the Syra cuse line the way it did against SIol- gate week ago and failed to make a first down by either line plunging or end running.
 A field goal gave Dartmouth the vic tory over Pennsylvania State, the win ming score coming in the final minutes of the game. Previous to this drive from the 43-yard mark, the teams had played themselves into a to tie There was little if any advantage in the of- fensive or defensive work of the compet- ing combinations, although the struggle abounded in spectacular and sensational plays
 In other games of the day, in which leading eastern elevens participated the majority. of the scores were far more one-sided. The navy ran up a tremen- dous total at the expense of Western Reserve; Pennsylvania easily outscored Lafayette in a rather loosely played contest; Cornell proved too strong for Carnegie Tech; Buclsnell won from the Carlisle Indians; Amherst defeated Co., lumbia in 8 well played game; Swarth- more conquered Johns Hopkins by a comfortable margin, and Pittsburg shut out West Minister in comparatively easy fashion.

New York November 4.-High-class football play marked the majority of eastern games on the first Saturday of November and there was an absence ot upsets which have featured preceding gridiron struggles.
 Among the more important battles of the day, the outstanding contests were those between Notre Dame and the Army, Syracuse and Brown; Rutgers and West Virginia and Dartmouth and Pennsylvania State. Forecasts that this quartet of games would be the hardest fought came true for in no case did the winners margin of victory exceed six points.
 Chief interest centered in the outcome of the meeting between the soldiers and the Notre Dame eleven, due to their rivalry and the added fact that the game brought east and west together. The Indiana team won, to ?, after the hardest kind of gridiron battle and proved conclusively that the Notre Dame combination was the better eleven in every way.
 The victors were fully equal in physical material to the cadet squad and all through the game executed plays faster and cleaner than the army and with better judgment. The soldiers line, with the fear of forward pass always hang ing over it's head was inclined to play wide and loose, with the result that the Indiana collegians hung closely to straight football tactics and made most of their gains through or around the line.
 The soldiers notwithstanding their de- feat made creditable fight in view of the handicaps that surrounded their gridiron work this season. This can be

 Mississippi Agricultural and Mechanical defeated the Oxford players yesterday, 4l to IA, and tackle Kentucky Saturday at Starkyille, Miss.
 Auburn ran roughshod over the light Florida eleven, piling up 69 points, and this week play Davidson college in At lanta. The Plainsmen's contest here promises to show more clearly their driv- ing power, as Davidson, although it has not a string of victories to its credit, scored on the Navy, and Georgia Tech and easily defeated Furman university yesterday.

 Louisiana State could not repeat it's last years performance against Arkansas when the Tigers won II to :, and yester- day suffered it's second defeat of the sea son when the Razorbacks were victors in the feature contest of the southwest at Shreveport.

 eIevens were eliminated from the
 category of the seasOn's unbeaten
 teams in the south last veek-Tu-
 lane and Louisiana State--whiic
 the predictions by many experts in

 which resulted in tie; Auburn's
 easy victory over Florida and

 derbilt by 12 touchdowns.
 Under normal conditions the Geor- gians' crushing defeat of the Commo- dore team--the worst ever administered to an eleven representing Vanderbilt, probably would be attended by more sig nificant in football circles in the south, but wartime play has apparently placed more of a handicap over Coach McGugil in putting out q team up to Vandy s usual standard than had been generally believed
 The Commodore players showed marked lack of team work, and outside of sev- eral flashes of individual brilliance they made practically no headway against the Jackets. On the other hand Coach Hleis- mans machine has become more sea soned and has developed into one of the most formidable combinations ever put out at Tech Vanderbilt this week meets Alabama at Birmingham
