WAR STAMP SALE
WILL NOT CHANGE
NEW LOAN QUOTAS
Treasury Department Alters
Plan Announced Last
January

Victory Liberty Loan quotas will not
be affected by thrift Stamp sales as
planned by the Treasury Department
the first of the year. 1t was announced
last January by Lewis B. Franklin,
director of war savings, that wherever
Thrift Stamp quotas were exceeded
the amount of oversubscription would
be taken from the coming loan quota
and that If the Thrift Stamp quotas
were not reached the deficiency would
be added to the loan quota.
Governor J; mes X. Lynch of the
Federal Reserve Bank has Just
received telegram from Washington
advising that the plan to adjust Vic
tory Loan quotas in accordance with
the sale of War Savings Stamps has
been abandoned. The reason given
was that some of the Federal Reserve
Districts were not reapp0rtioning
Thrift Stamp quotas.

Dear friend:
l suppose you have received my

February 2. I've been expecting a
letter from you ever since, but just
remembered today that l hadn't put
my address on it, but I'm sending
it now and ! hope you will write
me long letter as | haven't heard
from you since November II.
I was busy fixing out Fritzies day
rations when your letter came, you
know we always sent over few of
those 1855 shells about meal times,
we always heard that the Huns were
short of food and when we got thru
sending over the iron ratiOns there
was considerable more food for those
that were left, we always helped the
Hun out if we could.
Well, I'm here at Camp Funston

honorable discharge at that, pro-

HAUGHT0N WATCHED YALE
Famous Percy D. Says Poor General ship Caused Defeat on Saturday. Has Praise for Blue Line.

Cam bridge, Mass, Nov. 1.-The Harvard football coaches and players who went to New Haven for the Yale Princeton game Saturday did not dis cuss much else with the stay-Gt- homes Captain Murray, Eddie Casey and Hubby" Clark were the three players who witnessed the match in the bowl and they returned with wholesome respect for the New Haven rush line.
 The players as well as the coaches feel sure that if Yale could not run back kicks against Princeton, the team will not make many run backs through Harvard's open field defense It is not believed here. however, that the New Haven coaches used some of the dry held' plays that were up their sleeves, and with good footing in the Harvard Stadium oD Saturday. Bob Fishers team will not be allowed to underestimate the strength of the Blue.
 Percy Haughton, who went to New Haven with most of the Cambridge coaching staff, has been really "caHght in the draft" now and the coaches are sure he will spend most of the week out on Soldiers Field helping Fisher and his assistants. Percy did not take his field glasses off the Yale team on Saturday. He says Yale's line has a lot to it and believes that poor gencralship doubtless cost Al Sharpe his first big game as head coach down at New IIaEen.

ENDS IN. WRANGLE
Tigers of Hartford Withdraw 1eatI
 From Field After Nutmcgs Rush
 Ball to Near Goal Line. < W

q , -
 After leading and outplaying the Nutmegs of this city for three periods, the Tigers football eleven of Hartford marched off thesfield at Seymour park Yesterday aftern oon, forfeiting the game, to the locals. To many it seem ed as if the Capital City team feared that the Nutmegsi were about to push the ball over for! a touchdown. Tho locals, after securing the ball on thew own S-yard line toward the middle of the fourth period, started a whirlwind attack that soon brought the ball to the 24-yard line, due mainly to the wonderful work of Nerve" Nel- son. It was growing very dark at this iuncture and the visitors seemed un- able to check the rush of the locals. {
 Following a hard smash by Nelson, Referee Bayer detected one of tho Hartford men slugging, and he imme- diately imposed the usual half-dis- tance to the goal posts. The Tigers set up 8 loud squawk, which ended with the withdrawal from the field The visitors tallied in the first period by completely outplaying the Nutmegs. Brennan, the fleet halfback of the Tt- gers, proved the stumbling blocSs This speedy boy broke away from the entire Nutmeg team in the second pe- riod and ran 60 yards, but the score was disallowed on account of holding in the line. One of the largest crowds of the season, part of which stood In mud ankle deep, witnessed the game

WOULD PLAY OFF TIE GAME
Vice Chairman of Princeton EndON- = mCnt Fund Suggests Second Meet ing of Tigers and Crimson.

New York, NSv. 17.-Major James Barnes of New York, vice chairman of Princeton university's campaign to raise $14, 4,325.00O endowment fund, has proposed in event of q tie between Harvard and Princeton for champion ship in the Big Three series that the tie be played off here, the proceeds going to the Harvard and Princeton endowment funds.
 This proposal is commented upon favorably in tho current issue of the Princeton Alumni Weekly, which urges that the football authorities give careful consideration to the matter. It will be recalled that the Harvard Princeton game on November result cd in d tie, 10 to 10. Should Harvard defeat Yale next Saturday at Cam bridge the Crimson and Orange and Black would be tied for the Big Three" championship.
 IL is argued in behalf of the pro- posal that the Harvard and Princeton endowment funds are urgently in need of every assistance possible. Although Harvard has a large number of alumni hor campaign has had some hard sledding On the Princeton side there is a realization that with a much smaller body of alumni the task of raising almost as much money as liar ward seeks will be exceedingly diff cult So far Princeton has received only about S2,250 900 in subscriptions as against almost $10,000,000 for Har- ward. Prmceton's drive however, has hardly begun and methods are being, discussed of giving 1t considerable pro- pulsion.
 Should Lale defeat Harvard the feeling still remains that Harvard and Princeton may well consider playing 2 off their tie here around Thanksgivins. time.

FOOTBALL DOPE IS "
 BADLY SCRAMBLED
Harvard Only Remaining Team in East Which Remains Unbeaten

The football season of 1919, marked by an unusual number of upsets and continual scrambling of the dope, is passing out under the same condi- tions. Two hitherto unbeaten teams joined the ranks of the conquered majority on Saturday, and for each it was the closing game of the season. There now remains only Harvard still unbeaten in the first flight, while Stevens holds a similar position among the smaller elevens. New Hampshire States status is in doubt, due to the inability of the officials in Saturdays game against Maine to de- termine whether or not a touchdown had been scored. Owing to circum- stances involved in an odd play, the question of victory is to be decided by the rules committed
 The most striking upset of Saturday was the defeat of Dartmouth by Brown. The setback of Colgate by Syracuse was a surprise to some, but less so than the triumph of the Brunonians, a team which had suf- fered four defeats before meeting the unconquered Hanoverians The tri umph of Princeton over Yale was something of shock, yet there was a lurking suspicion that the Ellis might not be as strong as some of their admirers had pictured them, and the Tigers had shown an ability against Harvard that stamped Ropers team as dangerous
 The Yale-Princeton game was disappointment to followers of the Ellis. The showing of the team in the three games played since the defeat by Boston College had served to re- store confidence in the Blue. and as a result the Ellis were generally favored to take this game. Yale had the ad- vantage in having had scouts on hand to see the Tigers against Harvard, and there was no reason to believe that Princeton had not showed all of her tricks in that game. Yale had rested her stars and had pointed for this particular game, while the Tigers had to point for the Harvard game as we'll as that of Saturday, and, furtherm ore, there were physical advantages on tho side of Yale.
 Prophets Badly .Astray.
 Everything combined to point 10 a Yale victory. ltumors that some of the Tiaers had staled from the more severe preliminary schedule and the battle with the Crimson seemed not improbablc. Yet, when the teams faced each other, Princeton showed no staleness and Yale showed little of the strength which the Ellis had been supposed to possess. Mediocre foot ball was the rule practically all of the way, and the work of the Ellis

RODGERS LEADS IN sCORINGAl

Morgantown, W. Va, Nov. 17.-Due 10 the Mountaineers' 30 points against Rutgers at New Brunswick Saturday, they take the leading place from Pennsylvania in scoring with 264
 points to 259 for Penn. Rodgers, West Virginia captain and fullback, passed the century mark in individual scor-
 ing and, with 103 points, is far ahead of any other player in the country. N

strengthened that earlier impression that, the. Yale team was several de- grees below the standard generally associated with football at the New Haven university.
 The game was the last of the sea- son for Princeton, and Captain Me GraW's team will be remembered long at Princeton. It closed in a blaze of glory a season that had promised to be q, dismal failure. An unsatisfac- tory showing against Lafay cite, a de- feat by Colgate and 6 rout by West Virginia to the extent of 2o to 0 were followed by a tie game with Harvard and q victory over Yale. Coach Roper deserves a world of credit for the transformation wrought in the eleven after it's early failures.
 Dartmouth apparently suffered an anti-climax after a strenuous month of campaigning which called for games with Penn State, Cornell, Col gate and Pennsylvania on successive Saturdays. At no time during the season had Brown shown ability to class with the Green eleven; hence the surprise that Dartmouth was able to get only one touchdown. Four other teams had done as we'll or bet ter. Dartmouth suffered somewhat t from the absence of Robertson, but even this would not explain the in~ ability to defeat Brown.
 While Colgate, on past perform ances, had been favored over sy1a- cuse by those fare from the scene ot the struggle, it is significant that the Orc fo i+o ;,, where the game was played. This condition was the result of the fact that Gillo was known to have been injured in the Rochester game a week ago. It is said that he was suffering from fractures of two ribs, He start ed the game against Syracuse, but he was not the line smasher that he had been earlier in the season. The vic- tory of the Orange brought O'Neill's team back to the position which it had occupied up to the time of tho defeat by Washington and Jefferson. The game was the last of the year in the East for Syracuse. Games in the West with Indiana and Nebraska will bring to q close one of the most ,se- were schedules ever attempted by an Eastern eleven.
 Hard to Tell About Harvard.
 The victory of the Harvard second- string players over Tufts carries little significance. Yale had not needed her stars to take the measure of the Med ford Collegians to the tune of 37 to 0, and it was a certainty that the Grim son could get along handily with second-Strng men.
 Harvard will take the field against the Ellis at the Stadium next Saturday without having shown any unusual strength up to that time. The Grim son defeated Boston College, which eleven triumphed over the Ellis; but, on the other hand, Yale beat Brown by a larger score than did Harvard Then again, Harvard tied Princeton and was able to push tne ball over the Tigers line, something which Yale could not do Past performances fail to show any strong reason for making either team tC pronounced favorito next Saturday.
 The Pitt-Penn game was more sur prisinS, in it's lack of scoring than in
