meet the strong Holy Cross eleven
next Saturday.
Harvard, Princeton. Pittsburgh.
Penn State and Stevens all closed
their schedules undefeated. but the
tie contest between Princeton and
Harvard left the question of su-
premacy unsolved. Penn State
played tie games with Pittsburgh
and Lehigh: Pittsburgh was tied by
Syracuse and Penn State, while Mid
dlebury held Stevens to a scoreless
tie.
While comparative scores and
comparison of individual games is a
futile means of arriving at the
strongest team in any section it can
be safely stated that if a champion
ship team were to be selected it
would be found among the combina-
lions enumerated.
A second group but thinly sepa-
rated from the first division would
naturally include Dartmouth, SYRIA
CuSt, Navy. AAofy
Cross, Lehigh, Williams and Yale.
Weather conditions. the physical and
mental status of players, and other
surroundings have a direct bearing
upon each contest of the season,
make definite selection almost i'm
possible, if justice is to be done to all
teams.
An analysis of the records of the
various college elevens of the east
develops into interesting and confus-
ing data. The West Point Cadet
team, although defeated by the
Navy and Notre Dame managed to
roll up an aggregate score 314 points
which, SO far as scoring is concerned,
gives the Army first place in the sec
ton totals. Williams. with Benny
Boynton the star individual scorer
of the east, is next in line with a
total of 312 points although defeated
in three out of the eight games
played. These are the only combina-
. tons to cross the 300 mark Penn
State and Cornell are third and
fourth respectively with $50 and 213.
From a defensive standpoint Bos-
ton college appears to hold the palm
as Coach Cavanaughs gridiron pu-
pills held their opponents to a total
of sixteen points, of which Yale
made thirteen and Marietta the re-
naming three. Syracuse was next,
with u low opponent score of q.
while Harvard was close third,
with but IS points scored against her.
Holy Cross was fourth with 30. but it
still has the Boston college team to
stand off. Eight games were the
average on the eastern college sched-
ule and the maximum ten. with
Pennsylvania, Washington and JEFF
ferson. and West Virginia playing
the longest schedules of the season.
The records of the larger institu-
tions of the East. showing the number
of games won, lost and tied, total
points scored by home teams and op-
ponents as we'll as the name of the
leading individual scorer for. each
eleven, follow:

Abraham Lincoln worked as grocery
clerk, fell IN love with Ann Rutledge,

spring and with the addition of the
Old Salem museum. will be thrown
open as the Old Salem State Park. ac-
cording to announcement of State
Architect Edgar Martin.
Log huts as they We're in Lincoln s
day have been rebuilt. Their location
and arrangement is exact. Foundations
were found undisturbed except by the
wear of time. and the houses recon
structed over them. Atmosphere OF
1881 to 1887 in so far as possible is re-
embodied. The store where Lincoln
was clerk. the mill on Sangamon river
and all other structures Of New
Salem" so rich in memories of the
great American have been completely
restored and lack only the finishing
touches.
Beside reproducing the actual village,
the state has added large frame
house of the better class in Lincoln's
dSy. which will serve as State Mu-
scum to house Lincoln relics. This
house 10 modelled after fine old resi-
dence in st. Genevieve, Mo-, which vii
lage Mr.. Martin said is as q town
lifted bodily out of the last century.
The architecture is OF the hest of Lin
coins day.
Contracts for the wiring, heating
and plumbing Of the museum have just
been let.
In restoring New Saiem~the depart
ment was forced to follow the same
tactics used in restoration of more an
cient cities. New Salem dwindled rap

authorized the creation of the Old
Salem State Park, only the weather
beaten foundations could be found.
