CRIMSON DEFEATS YALE @--O

NEW HAVEN, Conn, Nov. 2o.-Rs- pulsed in their attacks at the Yale goal today Harvard resorted to kicking and with three field goals defeated the Ellis, 3 to O, in the annual football com bat in the Yale bowl The contest. witnessed by early sO.000 fans. and the Ssth between the two universities was a remarkable exhibition of the open and aerial game.
 While loosely played at times, it fairly. bristled with thrilling forward passes and sweeping runs.
 The Yale players hattled so ssavagely that although the Cambridge clan sev- eral times drove the Ellis back to the shadow o ftheir goal posts, a torch- down was beyond the physical ability of the Crimson eleven led by Arnold Horween.
 In this crisis Harvard fell back upon the kick and three times out of five booted the ball between the uprights, while Yale left the field with the satis- faction of having partially checked its greatest rival in a triumph that was considered such a foregone conclusion that Harvard cohorts were offering odds of to l before the game Both teams showed a stronger de- hcuiariy notable in the case of Yale. fense than attack, and this was par Harvard found it reasonably easy to gain ground between the 25-yard lines, but once within striking distance Yale stiffened. Considered entirely from q technical standpoint, Harvard out played Yale as team. but the indi- idual efforts of the Ell eleven offset this team advantage. Against the sim pie plays of the home team Harvard flung Q compact of wide defense and seldom did the Eli eleven carrier find an avenue of advance for more than e second or two.

Ohio State Wins
 Conference Title
 From Illinois |

URBANA, IL, Nov. 2o.-Ohio State took the 1920 football championship of the western conference back to the presidential state tonight
 In the most spectacular finish seen on Illinois field in years, the Ohioans defeated Illinois, 2 to 0, in the deciding game of the "big ten'' race today, when Myers, in the last ten seconds, snatched S7-yard forward pass from Workman and dashed across the line for the only touchdown.
 Pete Stfnchcomb. the brilliant Ohio leftback, kicked goal. By winning to- day Ohio State has undisputed claim to the title. Both teams fought yir- tually on even terms until the last few minutes. Illinois, weakened through the loss of Capt. John Depler. ali-western center. and further crip- pied by injuries to Carney and Ralph Fletcher, star kicker, fought stubborn ly to check the smashing Ohio attacks. The Ohioans carried the fight into Illinois territory most of the game, but lacked the drive to put it across.
 The Ohio victory IS considered sweet revenge, as last year Illinois snatched the championship from the Buckeyes at Columbus.

MEADOWS DEFEAT
 WISCONSIN, 3-0

CHICAGO. Nov. 2O.-Allan Davey's drop kick between the uprights in the final quarter today gave Wisconsin three points to none for Chicago in a game in which Chicago gained honors for it's valiant fighting. A crowd of S0.000 witnessed the game
 The Maroons, apparently facing a big defeat at the hands of the eleven which a week ago conquered Illinois, rushed into the contest with an ag- gressive spirit which kept Wisconsin on the defensive in the first quarter.
 The superiority of Wisconsin began to show in the second half, however. About the middle of the final period Wisconsi uncovered the ball on it's own 45-yard line. Williams twisted around end for 30 yards and after for ward passes had failed Davey dropped hack to the 37-yard line for a kick
 The victory places Wisconsin in sec ond place in the conference race.

Castor had gone far down the field. near the Yale goal, to clear the way for a Grim son forward pass advance and found Kempton the only Blue player in the way. His attempt to put Kempton out developed contact that became fisti- cuffs and dismissal of each player for slugging became necessary, Reeeree Tufts of Brown said.
 Tt was the hardest fought Yale Harvard game that I have seen. but except for this incident a clean con testi' the referee said. Other penalties imposed were only the result of over zealousness, he added.

MAGMA CREYS BASEBALL GAME AT EASILAKE PARK TODAY
THIS AFTERNOONS BASEBALL FAME N|LLPRESENT GLASS IF SOUTHWEST

Phoenix baseball fans will be treated to the classiest baseball game played in this city in many years when the Greys meet the Magma Miners at East lake park this afternoon The Greys are conceded the fastest aggregation of ba1l-tossers ever assembled under the Phoenix banner and the Magma Aln- CTS run second to none of the mining teams of Arizona.

Duke Cross Is slated to pitch, with Perry and Wells in reserve. Harry Westfau will do the receiving, with Lyall cavorting around first Hollocher, the Chicago Cubs shortstop, will cover the dizzy corner for the Greys, with big league timber rounding out an infield that looks like a winner. Scotty is covering the key stone sack and the old reliable Sorrey Is doing the honors on the short field. Every indication points to the fast est game ever played in the state of Arizona-at least. the two fastest teams will be out there to entertain the fans with a fast exhibition of the national pastime.

STATE BOARD OF
 FISHERIES AND GAME
What It Is Doing-Its Ob- jects and Aim by
 Charles H. Pease

The following article by c. H. Pease recently appeared in the Anna teur Sportsman. It tells many in teresting things regarding the fish and game commission in an unusual manner.
 There's one state department fa- miliar to few, yet one of which all should know more than they do. Its far more important than some peo- pie claim and it's known as the state board of fisheries and game. Its aims and it's objects, expressed in few words, are to save the wild ami nlals, fishes and birds; it's worth to the state every cent of it's cost, for without it all wild life would surely be lost. Imagine this world without beast, bird or fish. How long would we live here before we would wish to sacrifice all of our riches and gold to bring back the wild life we cher ished of old?
 Just think of the wild folk that's under its care; the nimble gray squirrel, deer, rabbit and hare, the partridge, the pheasant, snipe, wood cock and quail, the sandpiper, galli- mule, plover and rail; the wild ducks and geese, bitterns, herons and coots, and even the big-eyed barred owl that hoots,. and all other owls except the great horned, whose head with those big feathered "horns" is adorned; the army of song birds, the farmers best friends, upon which, 'tis said, that our living depends; they're worth more than money, they're doing their best to rid us of every known bug and worm pest.
 But this board is not confined only to game, as food and game fishes are cared for the same, the fish which in all inlaad waters are found and even the Holsters, that live in the Sound; the shad that Connecticut River supplies, gay speckled trout that darts up at the flies, the bass that so savagely fights with his might, and the pickerel that gobbles up all that's in sight.
 But this is not all-there's con- siderable more. Compare with the present the good days of yore; con- ditions have changed, and they change every year; they're not even now what to some they appear. There once was a time, but alas! never more! our woodlands were teeming with wild life galore; the grouse were so plenty they couldn't be sold, and twas easy to shoot more than gamebags could hold. But note what difference a few years have made, how birds have diminished within a decade; the passenger pigeon, that beautiful bird, is lost, gone forever, no more to be heard. In number less millions it clouded the sky, it had no protection and that is just why it was slaughtered and mur- dered and netted and shot, and forced to succumb to the pot-hunt- er's pot. The beautiful woodduck was going the same, but, thanks to

NEED OF CLOTHING FOR
 RELIEF OF ARMENIANS
Treasurer of Financial Cam paign Issues a
 Report

Once again the good people of Canaan will have the opportunity to show their generosity, and at the same time help in most worthy cause, for the appeal has gone forth that there is most urgent need of clothing in the stricken land of Ar menia.
 Friday of this week has been des- ignated as the special day for the drive, and the Masonic Lodge rooms will be open from 9 o'clock in the morning to 5 in the afternoon to re- ceive any contributions that may be sent in.
 A full carload of clothing must be collected in Connecticut as the mini mum amount expected from the people of the state. As in every other drive Canaan has come up to it's full share, so it is expected that now there will be a general search ing of closets, wardrobes, cedar chests, boxes, packing cases, for the garments that can be spared.
 Only warm clothing is needed, for the winter weather in that land is as severe as our own New England, and last year thousands perished for the lack of sufficient clothing. Wool en sweaters, shawls, heavy under wear, stockings, warm caps, gloves and mittens, shoes. And for the girls remember that they like bright colors as we'll as our own girls, so if you have a bright ribbon put it in the bundle, it will gladden. the heart of some little girl, whose clothing may be of the dullest hue.
 The Near East Relief are prepared to send for sidtribution any amount that will in any way make the cold weather more endurable to the ten million orphans, whose care is given to Connecticut. Remember that it takes about three months to get the clothing across to the point of dis tribution, so that it is none to early to send our contribution at once.
 The cahirman of the Near East Campaign, Mrs. Joseph l.. Parsons, received the following letter from the chairman of the state executive committee: "A , My dear Mrs, Parsonss I want to congratulate you most sincerely on the very remarkable success you have attained in your work for Near East relief in your town of North Canaan. It is an inspiration to us all and enheartens us in the efforts we are making in the rest of the sttae. Please extend the thanks of

SHARON AUTO PARTY
 HAVE NARROW ESCAPE
Receive Serious Cuts When
 Steering Apparatus Breaks

An automobile party of Sharon people had a narrow escape from serious injury last Saturday on the Pittsfeld road near Lenox, Mass, when the steering gear broke. One of the party was catapulted through the wind shield and the others thrown to the ground with great violence. The car was a Buck seven-passenger and was driven by David Tompkins of the Livingston Garage of Sharon, owners of the car.
 The party consisted of MT. and Mrs. David Tompkins, MT. and Mrs. James Welch and Mrs. John Carley of Sharon and Miss Kate Carley of Lakeville, all relatives of MT. and Mrs. A. L. Higgins of this place.
 MT. Tompkins received broken nose and MT. Welch, who went through the wind shield, received an ugly gash on the cheek requiring eleven stitches to close the wound. Mrs. Carley's teeth were forced through her lips and the other mem jbers of the party were more or less shaken up and somewhat bruised. They were taken to a nearby house where a physician was called to attend to their injuries, after which they left in another car for home.

GLEE CLUB TRIP
Malcolm Adam Says It Was g
 Great Vacation

The following extracts were taken from letter by Malcolm Adam who made the spring trip as member of the Harvard Glee Club:
 'It is needless to say, that the trip was very enjoyable, and was the best vacation I ever had. We were in Philadelphia, Washington, Cin- cinnati, Detroit, Cleveland and Vas sar during the one week, so we had to do a great deal of travelling to get around. The land is flooded very much in West Virginia and Ohio. We were 12 or 15 hours late getting into Cincinnati from Washington. The roadbed had been washed away, and water was running acr0ss the tracks. Pictures were taken all the time we were gone, and I will try to get some before come home. Since we returned, there have been about two concerts a week, besides our two regular rehearsals, so have to use as much time as I can get to study. play ball nearly every afternoon. A couple of nights ago was elected to permanent mem bership in the Club, so feel pretty we'll assured that I will go on any of the big trips which will be taken during the next two years. There is rumored a trip to the Western coast during this coming Christmas vaca- tion, but, of course, it is pretty early to tell how much it will amount to-"

Governor Wears Paderewski's Hat

In the overturning of the coupe in which Governor Holcomb was riding Wednesday night the governors straw hat was crushed beyond repair. Ernest Urchs, representing the Stein ways, had the honor of presenting the governor with a new and elegant Panama hat which had recently been given him by the famous musician, Paderewski, late prime minister of Poland. The hat was a perfect fit for the governor and in MT. Urchs' presenting it he remarked that he would rather see it on the head of the governor than any other man he knew.
