WEST POINT, N. Y, Sept 27.--The

gians fought hard and held the Cadets

The soldiers. with a green team which
looked none too heavy, displayed weak
nesses which will give the coaches food
for serious thought before the season Is
much older. The visitors were unable to
gain materially in their rushing game
and were credited with no first downs as
a result Of their failure TO crash through
the Army forward wall.
In Thomas and Brown Middlebury
had a pair of good ends and Kalin's
work at guard stood out until an injury
took him out in the third quarter The
Cadets used an entire substitute eleven
after their first score in the second quar-
ter, but the reserves were unable to
more. than hold their own. The coaches
put the first string men back at the be-
ginning of the second half. thereafter

The Army's line showed tendency
to charge too high and slowly and sew

fence sifted through and nailed the sol

came at the opening of the second quar-
ter, when Lystad, who did the best work
of the Army backfleld, got around Mid

FORDHAM NOT TO
SUPPORT FOOTBALL
Makes Official Decision for a
Hiatus.

,Fordham will have no football team
this season. Definite word to that eff
feet came officially from the university
yesterday. 1t was stated that II was too
late to engage a coach, and that because
OF that and other difficulties the schedule
had been cancelled.
At first only the game with Lafayette,
scheduled for next Saturday, had been
done away with and II was still hoped
that an eleven could be supported. How
ever, after due consideration of all the
handicaps which would have TO be sur
mounted, the athletic authorities at Ford
ham decided that the task was too great
to undertake at this late stage.
Fordhams plans for this year were
quite pretentious Games were arranged
with Lafayette, Middlebury, Princeton,
Rutgers, Georgetown, Villanova, Holy
Cross, the Navy and Boston College.
Efforts will be made to retain this sched-
ule for next season, when II is quite GER
tain that the Maroon once more will be
represented on the gridiron.
Fordham dropped football once before.
and the game was not played at the uni
versity from 1909 to 1912. The Maroon
came back rather weakly, but II gained
strength with the passing OF each season
and last year, in spite of the war. the
eleven was a really first class one.
Frank Frisch was the star OF the team
and was elected captain for this season.
But he did not return to college this fall,
having Joined the New York Nationals.
Frischs decision not to return had a lot
to do with the lack. Of enthusiasm for
football at Fordham this year,

ADDS TO WEALTH OF ITALY
New Variety of Wheat Known as
strampelIi, Has Proved Really
Wonderful Success.

A new wheat, specially adapted to
the conditions prevailing in the grain
raising districts of Italy, has just been
developed by many years of careful
selection by Prof Nazareno StrampeuL
director of the experiment station
at Rieti to whom the Academy of the
Lincei has awarded for it the prize of
the Sanford foundation, given only to
those who discover something Of real
and great benefit to the human race.
The new grain has been named Car
lotta Strampeli. after the devoted
wife who helped materially in the
work of selection. Signora Strampelli
is Roman patrician and a great
grand daughter of Lucien Bonaparte,
Napoleon's elder brother.
Last year Carlotta StrampelH
wheat was sown upon $4,000 acres Of
ground and yielded an average of 81
bushels to the acre-about ten bushels
more than such land had yielded hith-
erto.
On the plains of Lombardy, Molise
and Puglie are about 100000 acres
suitable for the new wheat If the en-
tire product of last year were sown
this year. the wheat crop of Italy
would be increased by a quantity
about equivalent to that imported an
nually before the war; in other words,
it would make Italy Independent Of
the rest of the world for wheat.

has won him general admiration, Mr..

Mr.. Holcomb is firmly convinced that
the old italian master violin makers

part through the adroit use Of gum CO.

Not long ago he decided to see what
influence varnish had on the tone of
