HORWEENNOTTO
 BE INHARvARD l LINEUP ON SAT.

Boston, Nov, 5 - Ralph Horween waA not be in the ba sll1eld when Harvard takes the grtdiron against Princeton at Princeton, on Saturday, From all that can be learned, 1t is ae4stntely settled that Bgrnham and Humphrey will be the ha1Fba,s}ls, with Murray at quarter and Eddie Casey as full
 Egnaptarey will do tho purt3ng against the Tiger and his general play will attract special interest be- cause of the fact that under the long established system at Cambridge, he is #seing pointed to run the team next year, after Murray has been gradu- atea
 Burnham will start in Ralph Hor- ween's place, and is considered the second best plungfpg back on the squad He starts quickly, picks his openings welb gets ulo speed with 8 rush and hits the line like q human battering ram In some respects, he has his reputation to make so that his work, too will be closely watched.
 It is safe to say that 15 men will been seen in action against Princeton unless, percIance, the run of the game makes it possible for the coaches to give more substitutes q chance to gain some experience This, however, does not look likely at the present writing
 Unless plans are changed at the last minute Harvard will line up as follows: Ends, Desmond and Steele; Tackles, Hubbard and Kane; guards, Woods and Clark centre, Have meyer; quarterback, Murray half backs, Burnham and Hum pFrey- full back, Casey.

BONUS SYSTEM VERY POPULAR LAST SEASON
 IN AMERICAN ASSO

A bonus system inaugurated in the American Association this year made a hit with the players and the hust-
 ling which the players did in order to earn their bonuses made 8 hit with the fans, so that the system is quite likely to be in effect again next sea- son. The purse from which the be- nuses were paid was collected by lop- ping the sum of one cent off every paid admission to the Dali parks pn the circuit, and at the close of the season approximately s10,90e was available for distribution among the players of every club except that which finished last. Each member of the champion St. Paul club received $1S7.5e. and the amounts paid to the players pp the remaining six clubs thai shared in the pool were graded downWard so that the players on the club that finished seventh each re- cefved s25.

 The millennium in sportdom has ar rived. This is the year of the cham pions of champions. Perhaps never again will the sporting world be graced with three title-holders in dis tinct lines of sport whose superiority is unprecedented when compared with the greatest opponents of their game In the past
 Willie Hoppe, ''Bafbe'' Ruth, and Jack Dempsey-they are the cham pions of champions. The wizard of the cue, the demon of the willow, and the human tiger of the ring have earned something more than the re- spect of their contemporaries. They have won, the favor of The Old Time Sport-that hitherto obdurate old cod ger who could never perceive merit in any athlete but a champion of his own generation. Today for the first time in history The Old Time Sport endorses three modern kings of sport. He has deserted the standard of John
 L. Sullivan, Buck Freeman, and
 Frank Ives under which he has served

COACH WARNfER'S GOOD
 ADVICE TO PITT STAR

Boston, Nov. - Glenn Warner, peer of coaches according to many, said to Davies, his star Pittsburgh back, before the Lehigh game. last Saturday:
 ='Davies, you garry the ball and keep on running with it. You proba- ply won't gain once in five times; you'll be thrown for a loss, undoubt- edly, but keep plugging, and there will probably be one time when you will get away"
 That is just what happened ex- actly. Davies was completely stopped until the last six minutes of play

spitball Must Go
 Is Verdict of All the
 Major League Magnates

1 New York, Nov. 6.-Co1onel Jacob | Ruppert of the Yankees has manly 1 ideas concerning the business side of I baseball, but when it comes to the 1 playing end he is satisfied to let | Miller Huggins direct the same poli- | cy of the club The same goes for his i partner, Colonel T. L. Huston. When i asked yesterday how they would vote on the question of aboliShing the
 ] spitbau the Yankees owners took the i attitude that they would be govern l ed by Huggins's views on the advis-
 ] ability of such action. They have i ideas, of course, on the movement to ] ban the old deliveries, but they are i keen enough business men to Ietz ] Huggins' views determine the vote of 1 the New York club. All of which ap- . pears to be the logical attitude for i the club owner, until he knows how
 i the manage feels on this particular subject.
 i There appears to be little chance of the spitbau remaining in baseball. Seldom is any reform advocated which finds so many advocates as is the case in this particular agitation, which has been growing for some time, breaking out strongly within l the last few weeks. Some opposition will develop when the time arrives for definite action against the spit ter and other freak deliveries as it is not to be expected that a club owner will legislate these deliveries out of the game if such a rule is likely to impair the effectiveness Of his own pitching staff. It would be poor policy to weaken ones own club However. most of the club own CTS in the two leagues are against 1 these deliveries, and the opponents of fhRSa 6R1iX-prieS such an extent that the rule should go through at the December meet ings. It is not likely to become effec- tive for a year, at least, the delay giving certain pitchers opportunity 4o change their style.
 It might be added that many hov- men who appear to be pitching tba spitball or the shine ball stea div. do so on rare occasions. The fact that , pitcher can use the delivery gives him the advantage of using the motions; as threat. By going through the pre- imfnaries used in the freak deIiverxz ne can keep the batsman guessing | proposition, alleging that the interes9 in the game was leading some stu dents to neglect their studies
 Although Rutgers and Princeton played the first intercollegiate con test, football was already being taken up by other colleges, each one having a different style. of play. It was nos
