NEW HAVEN. Conn, Nov. 90
Thin and emaciated from a two ysars

bull dog lay in wait for Harvard here
today, living only on hope.
Sidewalks and hotel Hobbies damned
with people, streets and avenues lead
ing into the city choked with automo-
bile traffic loaded this college town
down with mob of close to seventy
thousand football fans gathered for the
thirty-ninth annual battle between
Yale and Harvard.
The town was sea of blue, splash
ed only here and there by gobs of
Harvard crimson 1t was a Yale day
in Yale's home town.
Harvard was quoted at ten to three
favorites, but wagering was slight,
more betting being done on the size
of the score. The opinion seemed
general that Harvard would win by at
least three touchdowns.
The last twenty-four hours here has
heen continual battle-a battle for
tickets, battle for hotel accomoda-
tons, battle for eating places and
some battles Just for battles sake.

a rising temperature. The weather

Despite the dope we figure that a
game is never lost until the game is
over ana this one is not over. It's
about time for US to get some breaks
in a game and if we get thea We'll
show you something"
Bob Fisher, coach of the Harvard
squad who refused to have his play
ers numbered for the convenience of
the spectators, bluntly said he would
win. He laughed when asked for rea-
sons.
Yale will show a changed lineup
from the one that lost last week to
Princeton. Critics figured it stronger
team. Bean, 200 pound former
guard, who came up from the third
string squad, has replaced Dilworth
at right end. Sturm, another third
string man, will be at full back and
kempton will start the game at quar-
ter in Murphy's place, with Aldrich at
left half back and Into may start at
tackle in place of Dickens.
Harvard will start her regular line
up with the back field consisting of

URBANA, H., Nov. 20.-The west
iern conference football championship
was at stake today in the game be-
tween Ohio State and Illinois on the
Illini field s
The Buckeyes had the edge in what
little betting was going on. "a
Indications were that John Depler,
captain of the Indians, would be I'M
able to play. His shoulder was in
jured Wednesday and while he be-
lieved he would be able to get into
the game, Coach Zuppke arranged to
shift his line up at the last minute,
to make UP for Depler's loss.
Bob and Ralph Fletcher, who have
been prominent in the big ten grid
iron battles for the last three years,
win make their final appearance in
collegiate football in the game. The
hopes of the Illinois followers we're
pinned on Ralph Fletcher's ability to
kick field goals. The aerial attack Of
Ohio with the passing combination
of Workman to Stinchcomb, was ex-
pected to be the 'mainstay of the
Buckeye game. e Is AZ @ Ea
If the Buckeyes win the game, they
will have a clear claim to the con-
ference title without a defeat. In
case Illinois wins, the championship
will be undecided. Illinois, Ohio and
Wisconsin Will be in triple tie, ac-
cording tos some authorities, each
having lost one game. Others claim
Illinois will be entitled ito the honor
on accountss0f having played six
games and lost one, while Ohio and
Wisconsin will have nlayed only five
games each thus giving illinois the
higher percentage.
About 10000 tickets were sold for
the game. All were disposed OF
week ago and scores who. came here
today were unable to obtail tick cts.
at the last minute. s
To make up for Depisrs loss,
Zuppke shifted Al NIolir from left

DRY LAW WRITER
 KNOWS EVERYONE
 CUSSES HIM OUT

Washington March 21.-An irate citizen from somewhere or other rushed into the office of Represen- tative Volstead, of Minnesota, au- thor of the prohibition enforcement act, a few days ago, very angrlly displaying a bottle of brawn liquor for which he had paid dearly only to find it was tea instead of liquor
 I paid $22 quart for that stuff" he said, ''and it is all your fault; you wrote the dry law"
 Representative Volstead replied:
 Don't blame me. I'm not dyr, and never was. Somebody had to write the law, and, as chairman of the committee, it fell to me. 1t might have been worse. Now I am cussed from one end of the country to the other"
 Later MT. Volstead explained that he did not mean he was opposed to prohibition, but that he was not q prohibitionist in the strict sense of the term.

 present market clogs, Turn round and swat the farmer,
 and put down the price of hogs!1 If the railroad men are striking and
 ask for higher pay, If the miners will not work but six
 hours every day, If the labor situation more and mors'
 excites your fears, Just turn and swat the farmer and
 put down the price of steers. If the price of shoes is higher every
 time you want to buy, If you cant support your family
 no difference how you try, If your pay cheek is too small to buy
 enough to eat, It's plain the bloated farmer gets
 too much for his wheats If the grocer pays for apples only
 20 cents a peck, And his patrons when they buy then
 finds he's gouged them in tht neck,
 And they've paid five plunks bush

Service Men in Attend

New York, Jan. 5.--An audience
of 1000 persons crowded into a hall
here last night to pay honor to Con-
gresham Victor L. Berger, recently
reelected by an overwhelming ma
jority from. the Fifth Wisconsin dis
trict after his former election had
been refused recognition by congress.
Berger was wildly applauded
when he asserted that although he
had been indicted five times on So
different counts, he would run for
reelection again, if congress again
refused to seat him.
Berger taunted the secret service
agents whom he knew We're in the
hall and declared that he would
write the same articles and make
the same speeches for which he was
sentenced to 90 years in Jail, again
it necessary.
A rowdy in the rear Of the hall
attempted to break up the meeting
by heckling a previous speaker, but
was summarily elected.

himself through the heart with SUI

been able, the nature of the wound
would most likely have caused tn

the possibility Of him being able to
