CENTER HARVARD GAME
ATTRACTS ATTENTION
All SpOrtsmen and Sport Writers Di-
rect Their Attention to Sat
urday's Conflict.

New York. Oct. 17-Still feeling the
effects of Iowa's to victory over
Yale at New Haven Saturday eastern
followers of foot ball are turning to-
ward the tussle at Cambridge next
Saturdays when another east VS.. west
struggle takes place - that between
Harvard and Centre.
Both Of these games, the Iowa-Yale
and the Harvard-Centre, have an i'm
'portant bearing on the annual tussle
between Yale and Harvard which is
without doubt the climax of the sports
eastern season.
Should Centre defeat Harvard, as It
did last year, Yale's loss to Iowa won't
affect the big game so much, but it
will be further proof that the gridiron
game of the west is somewhat better
than that Of the east, as Chicago last
year and Iowa this year have about
proved.
Harvard won from Bowdoin Satur-
day, piling up Is points and keeping
Bowdoin away from the crimson goal,
and Centre defeated Virginia Poly. 10
to 6. The virgiania. eleven is a much
stronger team than is generally be-
lieved, yet the "'Praying Colonels"
won with two of their best men. sitting

the Democratic candidates, intellect

constructive issues and unable today
as thoy we're In Congress to put for
ward any program alternative TO ours,
are indulging fabrile and futile abuse.
Democratic candidates, the message
said, evade the lone issue. The mes
sage further asserted the Democrats
dared not indorse or reject the pro-
posal. II can not find that anywhere
they have ventured to propose to undo
the Republican record" the telegram
