by the Blue football board as any other early season game, and no more prepara- tions for the actual playing of the game are being made than there would be for Princeton or. Harvard games; In giving this opinion, which incidentally comes from a Yale man in a position to know the why and wherefore of the matter, it mustn't be understood that the Ellis are understanding the power and versatility of the Army. The record of the Cadets this season is an impressive one and warrants careful yet appropriate prepara- tions by Yale for the game. However. nothing more than mid-season victory will be gained by a win over the Army and Iale's objective in Saturdays game seems to be just an effort to win, without sacrificing any first string men in the attempt.

MURPHY INJURED WHEN HORSE FAILS

Consequently the contest has been postponed until the committee on ath- letcs of the state league, of which both schools are members, has determined the exact status of the players in question. Vocational was willing to play the sched- uied game if Bulkeley would remove cer- tain players from the lineup. It is said that the three men whose status is in doubt are the mainstay of the BuN ey team, and that Coach O'Brien, feel.ng that their places could not be readily filled at this late date, refused the propo- sition presented by Coach Tayior of Vo- cational school.
 The rule under which Coach Taylor lodges complaint states that "a pupil must have been a member of the school for at least F weeks immediately pre- cedlng the time of playing, except in case ot pupils who have been regularly admit ted from q grammar school, or have been regularly transferred from another sec ondary school. Vocational school claims that the players in question have not compiled with this ruling, while the Or anGe and Black boys dispute the conten- ton.
 The committee on athletics, to which the matted has been submitted, consists or James c. Moody. New, Britain; Henry C Cottle, Bristol, and L. P Knapp, South Manchester. It is expected that the com mlttee will hold 8 hearing on the protest i'll New London within few days
 It is said that the two schools have agreed to abide by the decision of the committee, and following it's decision will play two games. The two schools have been bitter rivals ever since they started playing each other in football contests. To date Vocational has never been able to defeat the Orange and Black warriors. The best the Trainers could do was to nold Bulheley to Q GO score away back -n 1915. This year the two teams were conceded to be pretty evenly matched.

MAJOR LEAGUE DRAFT
 acnc,

Of~particular interest to the Eastern Baseball league Is the major league drafting season. This began Sunday Majors may draft from the Eastern and such other Glass A leagues as have ap- proved the cOnscription of players. For each player drafted the major pays $4 000. It is reported that there will be some heavy drafts and that the Chicago Nationals especially may do some whole sale picking
 However, the drafting price is general ly considered too stiff, and it is hardly to be expected that the price will stay at S4,0o0. Another year may see those fig ures cut in two. The International league and other Class A leagues can not draft because they have refused to be considered eligible to be drafted them selves by leagues of high classification. It is not very likely that the Eastern league will select players from lower leagues, Clubs are likely to feel they can get better bargains than through the araft process as long aS the scale is what it is.

ARMY-YALE GAME ONLY
 OF MID-sEAsON CAIIERE

Evidently the word being passed around in eastern collegiate football cir eles to the effect that Yale is pointing to the Army game this year, as well as Prnceton and Harvard, has been exagger- ated considerably during the course of it's travels. While the Ellis naturally re- speet the ability of the West Pointers on the gridiron, the idea of establishing this annual game with the Cadets on an equal basis with the other two games is noth- ing more than far-fetched assumption.
