Makes Clear Pact
Princeton, Harvard
and Yale in Football

New York Oct. 25--The impression
which appears to prevail in certain
quarters that Harvard, Yale and
Princeton are barred from further
participation in intersectional football
games by the new triangular agree
ment" is not apparently borne out
by careful reading Of the clauses in
the agreement which goes into effect
on January I.
Under the new plan. it is specified
that football training shall not begin
either at the university or elsewhere
until one week before the institution
opens and that the scheduled mum
Der of games shall be reduced to a
number consistent with the shortened
season.
In the next paragraph it is stipu-
lated that no post season contests. or
contests for the purposes of settling
sectional or other championships or
involving long or expensive trips or
extended absence from the university
shall be permitted.
With the exception of the visit Of
the Harvard team to California dur
ing the 1919 Christmas holidays to
meet Oregon and thc present week
end journey of. Princeton to Chicago,
none of the big three" have violated
the incoming regulation in the PAST
decade.
Many college olevcns from other
sections of the country have in turn,
invaded the gridiron- at Princeton,
New Haven and Cambridge during
that period and there appears to be
nothing in the new arrangement to
prevent their coming in the future
under similar conditions.

Only in the United States. Canada

American wheat will be drawn
abroad in great volume during the
next few months. it is predicted, to
help reduce the world cereal shortage.
Prices arc already beginning to rise
throughout Europe for wheat, rye and
ether grains. Rising prices abroad
tend to increase prices throughout the
United States.
The wheat harvest of the United

Prohibition Legislation

Harmony among the Republicans
on their new prohibition enforce
ment act, introduced in the assem-
bly, by Assemblyman Hobart, of
Essex, was upset yesterday when a
Joker" permitting justices of the
peace and recorders, as we'll as
higher judicial officers, to issue
search warrants. was discovered i'll
the main bill. So great was the OPP
position to this feature of the bill
that it was not reported out of COM
mittee last night. Republican sena-
tors and assemblymen held a caucus
on the bills before the session,
where the opposition developed.
Whether or not the dispute can be
adjusted in time for action or the
''anti-hooch" bills by the assembly
today is not yet known, but with
the end of the time limit set for the
session approximating the majority
can be counted upon to move with
all possible speed.
The nearest thing to al assembly
contest last night was on the Evans
boxing law amendments, which limit
the price of seats at boxing exhibit
tions to Sis. and provide minor
regulatory changes. This bill pass
ed with a vote of 40 to 6. The only
audible opponent to the bill was
Mr.. Champion. Republican. of Essex
county, who declared that the bill
would not correct the evils of tig
present boxing situation. The Essex
man had a bill of his own which
would have put boxing back to the
amateur only status of 1916.
