VERY little in the days news has been
Of sufficient importance to be reflected
to any great extent in the action
Of the stock market. Further ran,
road reports were made public, and
these for the most part were In line
with those previously given. The de-
mand for railroad securities, while COM
parativeIy small, appears sufficient 70
Impsrt a tone OF strength 70 that depart
ment in the fact Of indifference and weak
ness elsewhere.
Other groups, notably motors and els,
were heavy. Selling in motors was based
OF the theory that the spring orders had
been filed and that the general business
depression would prevent resumption
Of the demand.
A further bearish feature was the pass
Ing Of the Pierce-Arrow preferred divl-
dends. 4 notable exception 90 the gen
eraI condition OF the motor industry ID
point Of present business and future
outlook, is Stakeholder. An interview &C
corded the Boston News Bureau by Pres
ident Erskine, and given in full else
where In the days news, comments az
length on his company's satisfactory bust
ness both present and prospective.
The oil stocks were under pressure De
cause Of increased production and slow
demand for the crude.
Money still rules firm. Foreign ex-
change continues to show q tendency 20
work toward lower levels. There are SO
many cross currents at work that 0plh-
ions as TO the immediate action Of the
market are OF little value.
Some definite indications OF an I'M
proved business situation is reflected IN
the railroad reports.

Songfest t Big
 Game Feature

New Haven, Nov. 12-Sing- ing by Yale men at the Prince ton game here today is expect ed to be unusually effective as the result of drilling. The em- phasis has been placed on clear articulation of the frog chorus, it having been impressed upon the undergraduates that frogs do not make a long grunt. The "BreX EX-EX-Coax" is now coming out in clear staccato.
 The hymn Yale, Mother of Men, will be sung at the game instead of Bright College Years" The air of the latter is 'Wacht am Rhine." Princeton singing at Yale games has al- ways been a great game.

 AFTER JACkSTARS

The Tigers of the North End, com posed of some of the best footba Hers in the city, have intentions of claim ing the championship of the city which is now being held by the Jackson Stars unless the Stars con- sent to play them. The Tigers claim that they have repeatedly challenged the Stars for a game but always turn ed deaf ear to the def;s. The Tigers are so certain that they can subject the Jacksons to defeat that they are willing to play the Stars on any terms, winner-ta ke-ali, anytime, anywhere, for any amount of money. The Tigers also state that the Jack sons have no right to be claiming the championship without first de- feating all contenders.
 The Tigers will journey to Nauga- tuck Sunday afternoon to hook up with the strong Star Light eleven of that town. Following is the Tigers lineup: Slippie, le.. McGran, It.. Harri- gan, lg., Foley C., Ryan. rg., McKen- na, Tt, Costigan. re-, Neary. qb.. Da- ley, ihb., Hoyt. rhb., Howard fb.

 Schang Wheeler Injured.
 The appearance of ''Schang" Wheeler in the Acorn lineup when the game started was a big surprise to the packers of the Bridgeport A. c. Although the name of "C. Wheeler was on the players roster of the Acorns it was not generally suppOS- ed he was Big Schang." Wheeler, long, as he broke an arm in the first half, and was succeeded by Birming ham. In the second half the latter was succeeded by Senator Delaney.
 Another Acorn player to meet with a serious mishaD was Capt. Bill Du- ders of those days Dubigg was mak- ing an end run when he was tackled and thrown heavily to the ground, his head striking against a stub, opening a big gash which necessitated two stitches. Following was the record 1903

Bogash Loses, But Is Strong
 At The Finish

Louis Bogash received the adverse decision in his bout with Jock Malone last night in Boston. but according to Hub dispatches if the bout had gene two or three rounds more the Bridge>S port battler would have won. Follow ing is the Boston report of the go:
 'tIf there is such thing as being born under a lucky star and astrolo- gists say there is. then Jock Malone must have been born under one. Ma lone, a St. Paul welterweight and mid dleweight, which establish his as being of the versatile type of fighter. was the 1uckiest man on earth to win over Louis Bogash of Bridgeport ia their ten round fight at the Commer- last night. Bogash has no one but himself to blame for losing the fight and had he carried the milling to Ma lone in the early part of the contest like he did nearing the finish Malone would never have obtained the deci- sion
 Bogash Finishes Strong.
 1.-The big mistake Bogash made was permitting Malone to do the lead- ing. Jock would set. score jab, bounce away and register right hook or cross cover up like a turtle and then back away from Bogash's swings. Anytime Bogash scored Malone plainly displayed the effects of the punches. He was in distress, on three different occasions during who realized his condition and Bo-i gash was one of those who didn't know it. The latter fought stronger throughout and despite the fact that he was outpointed in majority Of rounds which won Malone the con-. stronger of the two and could have fought on for any distance"

PUTNAMS CAPTURE
 FIRST CAGE SETTO

The Putnams of the Boys Club successfully opened their 1921 basket ball season with a flying start by triumphing over the much reputed Triangles of the North Ends in fast well played game at the Boys Club last evening by the score of 3S-11. The game was marked with fast pass ing and shooting on the part of the Puts.
 Larry Weary, last years leading individual scorer. went off to an early start in the game by ringing up : total of IT points. The work of Katz and Fulton was noteworthy. Captain Grant and Tad Glynn played a won derful defensive game, keeping the Triangles to four lone baskets. The Triangles greatly hung their hopes on Red Allen. their star player and captain, but he was closely guarded throughout the contest by Tad G1ynn, and their hopes were shattered while the Puts kept caging the ball.
 Manager G1ynn was greatly pleased with his outfit and will bring the best teams available in the city and state to offer competition against his men, who are making a. strong bid for the city and state title. Lineups:

The Tiger and the Bulldog have fought 1t out on the lime lines many dimes, and while there have been de- lcisive victories scored by both teams it is seldom, that tfpey fail to put up aaL game worth going many, many miles to see,
 Expect Great Crowd.
 Today. in Ya1e's monster bowl, the rivals will fight once more, and this time before Hhe biggest crowd that them. The big bowl is said to have a capacity of 77,o00. That every seat would be filled when the referees was foregone conclusion. for football has come back stronger than ever since the war, and the big games this fall have brought out monster crowds in every instance.
 New Haven wass the Mecca" today for every Yale and Princeton sympa- thizer who could get here to witness rodtsa anGg @ trn piain foot ball fans, Yale and Princeton grads and their mothers. fathers. sisters. brothers and cousins. Automobiles poured into town by the hundreds from every direction and the giaring pennants Of blue and black and gold were everywhere in evidence. It was Havenibes will tell you so,
 Bulldogs Favored.
 Tad Jones' battling Bulldogs. stronger than they have been since
  Tigers by 10 to 0. went into today's contest with the edge in their favor. rBut they expected fight. They took 1t Is a n1atrer of course that Don d4ourie and his teammates would be full of 1t.
 Last year and the year before the Tiger stood triumphant with O foot on a tired and battered Bulldog when the end of the battle arrived. In 1919 Princeton won 13 to 6, and last year the Tiger humiliated the Blue by score of 20 10 0. But Jones has brought Yale back. He has nut Old 11li on the football map once again and Yale support is wanted to prove their faith in him by betting 1iberal1y on their faVorites a. varying odds.
 Yale. with nothing harder than pair of practice games during the last two weeks. was primed for to- days game. The Bulldog stars were Princeton, after a hard game with Harvard week ago. was not expect ed to have the punch nor the reserve strength of the Bulldogs
 Captain Nal Aldrtch and clever Don Lourie. star backfte1d men of the rival teams, were the men around whom the spotlieht played in advance of the game. Here are two of the seasons brightest sta 5, for Lourie is wonderful player despite the fact that injuries held him back this year, while A1drich is a man of all-Amer- ican caliber. Watch Lourie," was the warning cry oe Vale supporters, who were inclined to fear the Tigers claws. Stop Aldrich," was the lead ing slogan of Princetons 1usty Iunged rooters, who knew of Aldrich and his playing ways.
 Eut the unexpected often happens in football. The player who is looked upon as a sure star often fails to shine because the opposition concen- trates too much attention on him. So there was an even chance, at least fhat some player, like Charlie O'Hearn, would crash into the spot light while Don and Nal were being man-handled. At any rate, there was prospect of a fierce and well-played game of football from whistle to whistle.
