Every line Of his face, and I have
seldom seen face moro deeply fur
rowed, showed the tremendous strain
through which he had passed. The
Argonne offensive had ended in
glorious triumph for the American
arms, but the man who had directed
that operation showed, in his deep
set, harassed eyes and in his
sharply drawn face the suffering and
the anxiety which 1t had caused him.
Do not think that Pcrshing is a
soldier Of fintlike soul, who stol-
Idly would throw his thousands of
American boys at German machine
guns; the man whom I painted that
afternoon was man who had
sounded the depths. His face at this
sitting was a bit screwed up, the
lines were accentuated. and he looked
old and tired; he did not smile once
during the entire pose, and he talked
hardly at all.
tie was the picture Of complete
selt-possession. His movements were
quick but not spasmodic; he Is the

but 1t is always scrupulously
brushed, for in this, as in everything
else, General Pershing shows his pre-
dominant tendency to neatness and
order.
The Pershing photographs suggest

sombre afternoon, was similarly ona

TIGERS CELEBRATE
 VICTORY OVER YALE
Big Bonfire to Mark Victory Is Started by Captain McGraW

Princeton, x. J., Nov. 1S.-Prince- ton gave vent to it's pent up cnthu5l- asm here last night and in a wonder ful demonstration celebrated last Sat urday's glorious victory over Yale. For the first time in eight long years Mas saul hall glowed in the light of foot ball bonfire, which has been seen since time immemorial PrincctOnS hnai method of celebrating here her trl- umphs over her most 'hated' rival Yale
 And last night as was the case eight years ago, the chief honors went to a man who snatched a brilliant victory for the Tigers after their chances seemed doomed. Smiling Joe Scheerel is 8 worthy successor to Sam White who individually was responsible tol the victory of the Tigers over the Blue in 1911. Scheerer, however, was no; alone in his glory for with hls name were linked the names or MurreA' Trmble and Capt. McGraW, all ol whom were instrumental m thls great est triumph of a fighting Princeton eleven.
 Class exercises were suspended at ? o'clock and the rest of the day until s o'clock was employed to gather wood for the huge bonfire that was erected over the cannon just behind old Mas sau hall. As has been the custom in years past, the freshmen collected all the fuel and a motley array 1t was. Boxes and blanks of every description, and buggies, decrepit wagons and all the available and movable signs about the town and the campus.
 Promptly at S:30 o'clock Capt. Cur tis McGraw started the big conflagra- tion and a great cheer went up as the flames, slowly at first and then faster and faster, spurted up into the air to signalize Princeton's return to her Armament.
 For five long hours the fam es poured forth from the immense pile of wood and for most of that time the entire student body ranged itself as close to the flames the intense heat would permit There they cheered to the last dying echo the names of the men who last Saturday stepped into Prnceton's hall of fame.
 Every man on the squad came in for his share of honor and the under domitable spirit and confidence which has meant so much to the eleven all season and which last Saturday re- fused to let Princeton be beaten Training has been officially broken and while all of the men appear to be in excellent shape they vel m crit the rest which now comes tc them.

Yale Showing Fight.

New Haven, Nov. 1S.-Tom Dickens given rest yesterday along with Jim Braden, but every other Yale football regular was at the afternoons session. Ray Munger, Walkers substitute tackle, was also out
 The varsity was excused from scrimmage, but participated in 8, snappy signal drill in which the line up was: Rcinhardt, left end; Ora ham, left tackle; Acosta, left guard: Callahan, center; Gait, right guard; Hamill, right tackle; Robinson, right end; Kempton, quarterback; Neville, left halfback; Lay, right hafback. and Campbell and Don Welles, full back. Significant in this combination was the intercharging of the guards, Galt and Acosta, and the placing of Robinson at right end in place of Allen.
 Whether Robinson is the coaches first choice or whether it is their plan to let Allen recover from his shoulder injury is a matter of speculation. It looks as if his experience would land nm the placc next saturday.
 Of further significance was the presence of Kempton at his usual position, thereby nullifying the rumor that Thorpe Murphy or Chester La Roche would be given the position. Of course, it was the supposed Kemp ton blunders that promulgated the rumor, but inspection of the true state of affairs seems to hint that the open play that was so disastrous to the Blue was not of Kemptons choice but that it came from other sources
 Fred Webb and Thorne Murphy were at practice and are fast getting into perfect shape. The appearance of the whole team showed that ifs physical strength had not been sapped by the Tiger battle. Instead the team is on edge and displayed all kinds of fight yesterday afternoon. Althoueh Harvard benefited by having an oasv game last Saturday, Yale reaped a powerful indirect benefit in it's defeat because the Bulldog, having suffered defeats by Princeton and Harvard only once in the same year-1S98-is barking loudly to get a look at the Stadium.

NAVY IS PREPARING
Coach Dobic After Looking Over West Point Team, Tells Charges They Must Play Hard to Win.

Annapolis, Md, Nov. 1s.--After seeing the West Point team in action last Saturday against Villanova, De- bic said frankly that the Army team was stronger and better than he had been led to understand, and that only the very best use of the inter- vening two weeks could develop a of victory. The squad went to work yesterday afternoon with this under standing of their task.
 There is nothing to divert them from preparation for the final con- test, as the games on the local field are over for the season.
 The 2;0O0 midshipmen of the regi- ment will leave Annapolis for. New York at five o'clock on the morning of November 29, and will spend the night in the metropolis. They will go in four sections, two by the Pennsyl- Ohio, reaching West 156th street New York, at about half past 12 o'clock.
 The Hotel Comm odore will be the New York headquarters of the Naval party, and 1000 of the midshipm en will spend the night there. The oth- CTS will stop at the Hotel McAlpin All the sections will leave New York on the return trip from the Pennsyl- vania station, starting at ten o'clock Sunday morning.

HARVARD AND YALE DOWN 10 HARD WORK
Both EleyenS Commence Practice
 for Saturdays Big Clash

Cambridge, Mass, Nov. 1S.-The drive yesterday. The regulars, were rounded up, lcctured upon the work that is ahead of them and taken out upon the field to put the finisllinS touches to their play. They drilled long on plays, getting into their work with much speed. Then they took on
 The scrub line has been coached to play pretty rough football, too, in the scrimmage. It does not look now Us if the Crimson varsity will get much hamm ering between now and the Yale game. It took a week for the men who went to Princeton to get their ginger back, but now Fishers team is in first-class trim again.
 There still remains, however, some doubt as to whether or not the coaches will rely upon Jack Desmond to play right end. He had to be quiet all last week and his knee as yet has not permitted him to do any work He had hard time to get down to 
 has not been able to do even a little running to keep in shape.
 Yesterday Morris Phinney was at right end and Kane was back at right tackle, where he played against the Tigers. Phinney, who has played very little football in the past month, was on the squad three years ago and since his return to the game has come along quite rapidly. His down-thc- field work, though, is not as good as Desmonds, and the latter will be very much missed if he cannot play at his best on Saturday.
 Keith Kane is no longer considered for end. He played tackle some while being groomed for a wing position in the Tufts game and yesterday fell easily into the swing of the rush line plays.
 It seems certain now that Arnold Horwecn will start against Yale be- hind the Harvard line rather than at center. This player has made more real progress during the past three weeks than any other man Fisher has, and the players generally would rather see him in the backfcld Havemeyer, therefore, is almost sure to start the Yale game at center. Horween's defensive qualities, how ever, will not be overlooked.
 Ralph Horwcen was out in playing clothes yesterday for the first time since the Princeton game and did some drop kicking. He did nothing else, however, and did not even run through plays with any of the back fields.
 The varsity lineup yesterday was: Steele and Phinney, ends; Sedgwick and Kane, tackles; Woods and Clark, guards; Havemeyer, center; Murray, quarterback; Humphrey and Casey, halfbacks, and A. Horween, fullback.
 Although no official announcement was made it is understood that the lineup against Yale will be the same, barring the possible exception of Desmond, who may get Phinney's end pOSitiOn
