When You Can T Be Beaten


Well. we went into the contest and
found Princeton had a completely re-
iuVenated team All OF the supineness
they had shown earlier in the season

shock for the Harvard players, who
were expecting a tough enough battle,
but hardly expected TO be rushed of
their feet
TO make the story run briefly,
Princeton got a few breaks and. mix
ing them with great playing and Won
derful gameness, left Harvard Lrail-
Ing BY to at the end OF the first
half. But-the important point is
that we left the field for intermissiou
knowing well that the Tigers would
never beat US. We felt they had just
flashed something exceptional on Us
and our own game would tell in the
second half.
we came on the field for the
third quarter Etin full OF conf
dence. But 10 our surprise the
Princeton team was the same set
Of fighting derviaheE. Once more
they played rs off our feet and

the score 10 to 3 In their favor.
And IL stayed at that figure until
after the last period was under
And They Tied the Game.
Those final ten minutes saw the
tiercesr, most desperate work that the
Harvard team put in that year.
Starting from our own 10-yard line,
We banged off yard after yard against
the Tigers using forward passes
most OF the time, and completely up
setting them with our speed As soon
as the enemy gave ground a little and
let US get toward the middle OF the
field, we knew our campaign would
be successful We knew that we
would never be headed till we had
scored that touchdown and at least
tied up the game And we weren't
We got over the Princeton goal line
just in time and made a 1910 game
out Of what would surely have been
a defeat had we not had our conf

one thing that might have happened
had our confidence gone up In the air.
We would have become panic stricken
and demoralized, and Princeton would

FULTZ ENTERS
A HEARTY KICK

ATEW YORK, Oct. zg.-The minor
IN leagues will refuse 20 become q
party TO the reorganization Of
baseball under the proposed Lasker
plan. unless radical changes are made
in the scheme, IL was learned here
today.
Minor league officials. who have
been investigating the Lasker plan
FOR the appointment Of a new national
commission, claim the system pro-
Fldes Tor government without repre-
sentaton and restoration OF the DRAFT
which the minors have been fighting
for years
Await Annual Meeting.
Several conferences have been held
in various parts OF the country and It
has been Informally decided to oppose
the plan unless IL is altered before
offered 70 the minor leagues at their
annual meeting at Kansas City rext
onth. II is claimed that under the
Lasker system, the minor leagues
which control more players and terri
tory and have more money invested
in baseball than the majors, are
literally without voice in the pro-
posed government Of the game, re-
gardless Of their apparent right Of
representation on the commission
This claim is based IN part upon a
portion Of the resolutions adopted by
The major league clubs in favor Of
the plan, which reads:
THAT this board OF control and
its chairman shah be selected BY
a majority vote Of the clubs Of
the National league and the clubs
OF the American league, who shall
on rbefore November i, 1870,
have EiEnlfied their acqtIieseenee
in the plan provided in these
revolutions at meeting hereby
called 10 be held in Chicago No
vember s. 1890"
According TO a prominent western
minor Lacquer, the plan as disclosed
during an informal conference be-
tween a major league club president
and himself requires the minors TO
accept a representative on the com
mission already selected by the ma
jors. While it was intimated that the
minors must accept this represents
tive. there was q Tat refusal to name
either the major league prospective
representative OF the chairman OF the
commission, he said
When the matter was called 70 the
attention Of president David 4 Fultz,

 He had not breakfasted with Bar bara but had dresed and gone with out disturbing her.
 Wall Street knew John De Haven was back at work. It was comment red on by financiers, some of whom had been his colleagues in market manipulations and by others who had fought him and been sorry for it, by clerks who wolfed their lun- cheon as they made their plans to develop into brokers and by specu- lators who sought his office for word with the head 'of The De Haven Company.
 John De Haven made things hum in his own place of business. He was like an electric battery charged to the full and eager to release it's current. There was work to be done.

Mcdonald Likely
 to Take Place of Garry Hermann

Chicago, Aug. 13.-Discussion of the possible successor to August Herman for the chairmanship of the national baseball commission sprung up a anew here today with the men tion of Superior Court Judge Charles A. Mcdonald of Chicago as likely candidate.
 "I think Judge Mcdonald would make good man for the position" ," said President Johnson of the Ameri- can League, but refused to say whether McDonald's selection was likely.
 Julge Mcdonald said today he could not discuss the report, nor would he say whether he would accept the posi- tion were it offered him.
 Herman resigned as chairman after the worlds series last fall because of criticism that he served as. chair man of the commission while it ar ranged for the series which was won by his own club, the Cincinnati Reds. There were also objections to the presence of two members from the National, League and only one from the American League on the commission.

France Has Not
 Yet Materially
 Aided Wrangel

Paris, Aug. 13.-France has not yet determined to aid materially Gener- al Wrangel the anti lshevik com mandcr in south Russia, as, according to an announcement in the ministry of foreign affairs, premiers Miller and and Lloyd George agreed at the Hythe conference, that such aid was not to be undertaken except ;a cer- tain cevnts. It is considered that Franco will not act until after an exchange of views with Great Brit ain.
 The foreign office today issued a denial that France had ever en- couraged Poland to wage war with the Bolshevik. On the contrary, the statement said, France has urged Poland to keep within her ethnogra- phrical boundaries and to realize that her dangers lay westward rather than eastward.
