GREAT INTEREST IN
GAMES TOMORROW
The DartmOuth-P ennsylvan-
ia Clash One of Big
Football Events
TEAMS APPEAR TO
BE EVENLY MATCHED
Dartmouth Has a Clean Slate to Date,
But Pennsylvania Has Improved
Lately-Pittsburgh to Face Fighting
Team.

NEW YORK, Nov 9.-Two games
stand out on the Eastern football
schedule of the morrow as giving prom
Use of being close, hard fought con-
tests These are the meeting of Penn
svlyania and Dartmouth at Boston and
the Pittsburgh Washington and Jeffer
son struggle at Pittsburgh. III other
respects the Saturday list of gridiron
combats is not likely to be productive
OF either form or score upsets.
Judged upon their season records
Dartmouth and Pennsylvania appear to
be reasonably evenly matched and the
outcome is likely to be small mar
gin victory for the eleven which is the
more alert and quicker to take advan-
tage of the breaks in the play. Last
season the teams OF these two colleges
played a : to tie but this fact has
little bearing upon the result of tomor
row : contests as very few of the men
who participated in that struggle are
now wearing moleskins. The Quakers
have played seven games to date win
ming five and being defeated by Pitts
burgh and Georgia Tech. Dartmouth
has won all six games scheduled thus
| far this season, the defeats of West
Virginia and Penn State being the out
| standing features.
! The record Of the University Of Pitts
! hurgh eleven IS more impressive than
that of Washington and jefferson, but
| the latter combination is one of great
strength and has been especially point
| ed for this struggle. 1t is certain that
the smaller college team will give the
| Partners the hardest kind of grid
iron battle before they will admit de
feat In their game OF a year ago
| Pittsburgh won from Washington and
jefferson by a score of 81 TO 0, but il
IS doubtful if the present team will
duplicate these figures.
In the other games of the dav in
which the more prominent elevens OF
the section are scheduled TO partici
pate the outcome appears to be more
q question Of scores than victory or de
feat. Both the Army and Navy teams
should win from their respective op
poncnts, Carlisle Indians and George
town. Rutgers appears to have thu
edge OH the Springfield Y. NJ c. A

latter combination is exceedingly pro
ticient in the use of the forward pas
in all its variations. Colgate Shout,

COMPROMISE ON
DRAFT SERVICE

WASHINGTOE, May 2.-House and
senate conferees today began the task
of adjusting differences over the army
appropriation bill and as soon as set
tlement is reached they will seek to
reach an agreement on the war army
bill, repassed by the senate yesterday.
over which there are more serious
differences. An early agreement on
both measures is hoped for SO as to
send them on to President Wilson for
his approval this week.
Prospects are that the house con-
ferees will refuse to agree to the SEN
ate amendment, which would permit
Theodore Roosevelt to raise a volun-
teer expedition for foreign service.
Most of the other major differences
are believed to be susceptible Of ad
justment including those on ages sub
jects to selective draft and the senate
army prohibition amendment. The
senate bill specified the ages subject
to draft at from 81 to 27 and the house
at from 81 to 40 and indications are
that compromise will be effected fix
ing the minimum ages at possibly 21
and the maximum at 35.

HEAVY LOSSES
TO CATHEDRAL

PARIS, May 2.-Cardinal Lucion, de-
scribing the present condition of
Rheims Cathedral in a letter to a
friend. says:
"The outside apse is completely de-
stroyed, three flying butresses are
broken, numerous pinnacles are smash
ed off or thrown down, the main body
of the edifice in greater part knocked
down. the walls have received injuries
which threaten their stability and the
towers are seriously damaged. The
roof and vaulting have collapsed in
five places, the south transept and
chancel are in ruins and the baptismal
fonts are crushed, while the high altar
is buried beneath the fallen debris.
'It is the image of the devastation Of
desolation. The angle where the south
transept joins the apse Is so badly
damaged that a single she'll striking
above or at the side would bring down
the whole and with it the blind
arcade"

" reported description OF the German

lowed for six hours an American
steamship which arrived here today
from South America.
According to the officers of the ves-

6: 80 p. m. on April 2S about 300 miles
east of the Bahama Islands. The
American ship crowded on full power
and ran away under 141k knot speed.
The stranger followed and although
there was only four-knot breeze It
was seen the she was making about
ten knots. The chase lasted until 8
p. m. when the vessel disappeared in
the distance. She fired no shots, but
her general appearance and her evil
dent attempt to get close to the Amer
ican stamped her actions as suspici-

On April II officers of another
American ship reported sighting in the

COPENHAGEN. May 2-The speech
which was to have been made Thurs.
day in the Reichstag by DR.. Won Beth.

chancellor on peace and international
relations has been postponed to a
more fitting occasion, according to
word received here.
According to the Berlinger Tages-

The Hague on Tuesday, Won Beth
mann Hollweg was to have made a
peace offer in the Reichstag on Thurs
day. ... ..........
Speech Awaited with Interest
The speech had been awaited with
the greatest interest, in view OF the
recent reports Of conditions in Ger
many, notably in connection with
labor and socialism and also because
of an intimation in one of the German
newspapers that the moderation Of
the German peace terms would "as-
tonish the world"
Authentic news from Germany has
been so meager OF late that it has
been difficult to Judge what develop
ments may have induced the chan

to make another announcement. re-

Offer First Service
in France to Men
From, Training Camp

NEW YORK, May 2.-The promise
of the first honor and privilege Of
sharing in active service in France by
the Military Training Camps Associa-
ton of the United States, IS expected
to increase the number OF applicants
for the officers instruction camps.
Officers in charge of the two recruit
ing stations here today looked for an
other enrolment squirt. Yesterday
more than 500 candidates applied and,
according to the appeal OF the associa-
tion, New York City's quota of $500
for the Blattsburg camp, has been
passed.
The fact that more volunteers are
sought strengthens the belief that ad-
ditional camps are to be opened as
fast as army instructors can be re-
lieved of other duties and assigned to
this work.
