 Boys who grow up in this com- munity, he pointed out. have the in- heritance of every good American boy-that of becoming governor or president. He, himself. was raised in this city. He emphasized the point that every boy who adhercs to the scout ideals. equipS himself to go to the highest stations in life. that scout principles are such that they constitute good religion and good sense, as well as good business for every young fellow.
 Dr. Harry Southworth spoke first He talked on the general theme of the history of the local scout move ment and its future in Prescott.

AERIAL ATTACK Is
COLUMBIA'S GOAL
In Spite of Weather O'Nille
Forces Players Through
Hard Workout

Columbia engaged In mud session on
South Field yesterday afternoon. Despite
the driving rain that soon turned the
grldiron into a veritable quagmire
O'Neill ordered a fullhedged afternoons
workout and ended with a hard scrm-
mage. The players frequently fell on
the slippery turf but stuck to 1t with
will.
Strangely enough, in spite of such kind
of weather. O'Neill spent most OF the
afternoon developing an aerial attack.
and even after darkness had settled over
the field he continued using forward
passes. It seems probable that aeronau-
tics will feature the Blue and White OF
fensive against Penn. The aerial attack
was used with considerable success at
Cornell last Saturday. and when 1t failed
it was only because of poor execution.
A long signal drill preceded the scrim-
mage. O'Neill wasted little time on pre-
nminaries, however, and soon lined the
varsity against the second team. Capt.
Kennnger was at left end In place or
Pulleyn and seems destined to start
there against Penn. Walder's bad leg
has shown little Improvement and with
Modareli, who Is suffering from several
torn cartridges in his left shoulder did
not get on the field.
O'Neill sent Galloway to left tackle TO
replace Modarelh, while Korn, the Dig
$50 pound guard, went in at right guard.
Hinch played for Valdez or the left side
OF Brouil at centre. Harris. Canapary,
Eccles and Thornton Constituted the
bacSfield. Pop Larner, former substitute
end, acted as field general for the scrubs.

State Official Intimates That
Agreement for Immunity
Has Been Reached.

CHICAGO. Nov. 16.--Eddie Cicotte, for
mer Chicago White Sox pitcher, whose
confession resulted in numerous indict-
ments by the special Cook county base
ball Grand Jury in connection with the
1919 worlds series scandal, probably
will not be punished for his part In the
alleged game throwing. according TO OIL
Gals of the States Attorneys office
Cicctte will turn States evidence when
the men indicted are tried and his only
sentence will be Punishment from or
ganized baseball, It was said tonight
D. F. Cassaday of Detroit, Cicotte's
attorney. conferred to-day with States
attorneys over the pitchers confession
and possible testimony. At this con-
ference. according to State officials, Mr.
Cassaday promised that Cicotte would
tell the court the same story he told the
jury AS a. result. it was arranged for
the pitcher to furnish bonds without per-
sonally appearing.
While no official announcement was
made by the States Attorneys office, an
lilicial let it become known that but for
Cicottes testimony the jury never would
have had sufficient evidence to indict
more than one or two persons, and that
there would be little chance for convic-
ton without the pitcher as a State wit
ness.
Before Cicotte confessed we had
reams of hearsay evidence" said this
official tonight but none of it would
have held in court. We might have re-
turned a few indictments on it, but that
would have been the end of the case.
I'VE wanted convictions and not in
dictments. and in order to get the evil
dence necessary we had to have con-
fession We were certain Cicotte knew
more than many others whose names
had been given us. so we went after him.
OF course, we have to concede something
to such a witness and we'd rather see
Cicotte free and convict the rest than
to let them all get away"
This official refused to say whether an
agreement for immunity had been
reached with Cicotte before the pitcher
confessed.
The ball players and gamblers indicted
by the jury probably will be brought to
trial In January, it was said. Judgo

SEVENTEEN COLLEGE

try championship over the Yale course

The wearers of the Orange and the
Orange and Black again are sure to be
close to the top, but in the opinion OF
those who have followed closely the
performances of the various colleges
squads this season, Cornell appears to
be the favorite. The Ithacans finished
third in the Van Cortlandt race, but
they are admittedly much stronger this
year and indications are that they have
the best balanced team in the field.
The five athletes mentioned above
are all running in their best form this
fall and lead the rest as contenders for
the individual championship. Others
who are regarded as dangerous are
Higgins of Columbia, Foresman and
Swede of Princeton, Coakley OF Dart

the route an unusually difficult one,

Miss Demeanor owned by Edward Soph

The winner of the stake is a new

being her second start for the season
and the first time she was placed. She
ran in the independent derby at Sparta.

account of not being able to show her

the same pointer which won first In the
Independent Derby last week. and Is
consistent performer. Miss Demeanor Is
also a new one. She made a clever
bevy find in the first series which gave
her a chance to compete in the finals.
The pc inter- Crusader also won on his
ability to handle game.
Brookfied Kid. the setter of G. Il.
Duffield of Tulsa, which won the Amer

he lost I'm the finals. The stake brought

the general average.
