Columb!a's football schedule for 1919

though no definite outline Of tho list
Of games WAS obtainable from the

Columbia proposed would be It's big

athletics at Dartmouth. made known to
the Columbia authorities early in the
week that he did not believe it would
be possible for the team from Han
over TO make q trip to New York TO
play Columbia on November %. the
date suggested for the game. The
reason for this j. was said, was that
Dartmouth had an engagement TO play
sylvania here on November
date, and with q game scheduled with
Brown in Boston on NoVeMDer % ic
WAS considered improbable that the
faculty would sanction another out Of
month for game in New York with
Columbia.
With Dartmouth virtually eliminated
It is not known what plans tho Co
lumbia authorities have for filing the
ast date in the season Syracuse, It
y said. is out of the question, and
there has been talk Of inviting either
Cornell OF Brown 20 come TO New York
on chat day. Cornell. however, is
barred by the restrictions imposed by
the faculty when the game WAS ress-
tablished in 1915. so that Brown would
apparently be tho only eleven avail
able for big game unless the faculty
should waive the restriction and per
nit a game with Cornell.
Other games on the list, 1t Is said
Will be about the same as IN the past
and the teams played will include
Williams, Amherst, New York Univer-

Wesleyan.

Three Big Meets
Within a Week
On the Schedule

Although nothing definite has been
decided yet, it is almost certainty that
ne national indoor championship and
ne Millrose Athletic Association and
Meadowbrook Club games, which are
recognized as the three biggest athletic
oarnivals in the East, will be held dur
ing the period from March to March
10. There Is at present some doubt re-
garding the dates for the Millrose and
championship meetings, but they win
probably be fixed next week
The senior title games will be held
&C the 22d Regiment Armory, in
his city, the plan being to conduct
these games on the Sth. However.
J. this is impossible the committee
will endeavor to hold them March o.
Contrary to expectations the Millrose
Athletic Committee viii hold its games
around the middle Of March. Efforts
are being made to obtain either March
II or l3, but as yet the owners OF
Madison Square Garden, in which the
games will be held, are noc in pei
ton to give definite reply.
1t has already been reported that the
Meadowbrook Club, OF Philadelphia,
Will promote its carnival on March 10.
No place for these games has yet been
decided upon, but IL is almost fore
como conclusion that the club will 90
hack 20 the 1st Regiment Armory, in
which the 1918 games were held. While
this armory proved entirely inadequate

it permitted the club to lay down its

bodies are collaborating in arranging
their ganes Is closely together as pos
sible. with view of retaining the

WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY IN
SIBERIA, March 2i.-The outstanding
figure Of the A. E. F., in Siberia is
Major Samuel l. Johnson, provost mar
shal in a Siberian village.
Johnson isn't his real name. He was
born In a tent a few thousand miles
10 the west Of Nladivostok, near the
Don River. His father was Cossack
chief. Major Sam, as he Is called over
here. was educated in a Russian mill
tary academy and Joined the Russian
army. While Johnson was a midship-
man the training ship put in at New
York. Johnson quarreled with his su-
perior officer over brutality 10 the
men and finished the argument by
striking him. There was nothing for
Major sam to do but leave without per-
mission
Within a few days he shipped on a
merchantmen bound for South Amer
lea and landed in Argentine Just in
time to get in the thick Of a revolu-
tion. He went into the Argentine army
as a private and became a first lieu
tenant shortly before he was wound
ed. He received two decorations. After
the revolution Major sam went TO
Hawaii
The monarchy was tumbling Major
sam Joined the American army. Il was
here that the recruiting officer, who
could neither pronounce nor spell his
Russian name substituted Johnson.
Major Johnson's ability was so pro-
nOunced that he arose TO brigadler
general Of the Hawaii National COM

On the outbreak Of war with Ger
many he resigned his commission as a
brigadier general to be a major in the
