The season of 1922 marks further loosening of the monopoly that the East once had on the big contests. There not only are more games scheduled than ever before but there are more intersection contests, and intra-sectional matches of genuine importance than the pigskin dreamed of when it was more of pig than a skin and could dream.
 Yale and Harvard both said last fall that they would not tread in the path of Princeton and invade the Vest ern Conference. Just the same tn" schedules show that two weeks be- fore the Tiger is clawing around at tie University of Chicago the Bull Dog will be snarling at Iowa, champion of the Big Ten in the bowl at New Haven. Harvard apparently is satisfied with entertaining the team from the Blue Grass state.

Instead of being played on the tradi- tional Saturday following Tharksgiv- ing it will be played on the preceding Saturday, the same day as the Yale Harvard game.
 There will be several revivals of football relations between institutions that permitted their historic grdirc" enmity to lapse Notably among these are Harvard and Dartmouth.
 One radical change in the rules will make the game a bit different. Instead of being confined to trying for goal after a touchdown by a kick from placement the scoring eleven will be given the option of placing the ball anywhere beyond the five-yard line with the privilege of putting it into

NEW YORK, Sept 27-This will be a holocaust year on the gridiron.
 After the great strides that football, the most popular of college sports and rival of baseball in the public's highest regard, has made in the last few years it sounds bromidic to say that the coming season will be the greatest in the games history. Yet that's the fact.
 Opponents of the inter-sectional idea who have contended that the game was growing beyond bounds and be- coming the god before which educa- tion was being sacrificed get small comfort from a perusal of the sched- ules. At least 40 games will be held that it will take at least night on the sleeper for one of the opposing teams to reach.
 On the five Saturdays beginning with October ', there will be at least six or seven intersectional contests, scattered all over the country. Kan sas is coming to West Point, Georgia Tech and Princeton are going to Chi cago, the "Praying Coloneis" from Gen. ter College, Danville, Ky, are sched- uled at Harvard, Nebraska has date with Syracuse, Notre Dame will tus- sIe with Army at West Point, Ala bama will scrimmage with Pensyl- vania at Princeton-just to pick a few at random.

BALL HONEST PROVED BY
 ROUGH WAYS

NEW YORK, September 27.-That baseball is inherently honest, a be- lief to which any sane American will subscribe, is aptly proved by the coarse, rough manner in which the Boston Red Sox have treated the New York Yankees on the ball field this year.
 It may be true, as alleged, that a secret understanding exists between the owners of the two clubs; the bond may even smack of syndicate baseball as the average baseball man outside of New York will in- sist. But the understanding, if any, is confined to the bushes office and fortunately not the ball field.
 PITIFUL AGAINST BROWNS
 If the latter were true one would expect the Red Sox to fight the Browns and all Yankee rivals to the death and do a gentle, though graceful flop before the Yankees themselves. Instead the Sox efforts against St. Louis have been nothing short of pitiful, and on the complete seasons returns they have beaten the Tanks eleven out of nineteen starts.
 The last two Red Sox victories ip tember 5 and definitely eased the Tanks out of first place. If there was any understanding there, it was more or less misunderstood by somebody. As matter of fact, the Red Sox fight the Tanks as though the thing was distinctly a personal issue. Play CTS on both teams, most of whom have changed uniforms during the last two or three years, ride each other unmercifully and only recent ly it was necessary for Billy Evans to clean both benches of substitutes to preserve some semblance of or der
 OLD TANKS HELP SOx Former Tanks were prominent in nearly all the eleven victories scor- ed by the Sox. Jack Quinn, the ancient salivary gland beat his erst- while mates time after time in the early season, and Alex Ferguson another Gotham exile, was very ef- fective also.
 In the recent double-header in question it was a home run by Del Pratt and the pitching of Rip" Col lins, both ex-Yanks, that won the first game, and another homer by Johnny Mitchell, who figured in the most recent of New York Boston | trades clinched the second
 If one is to judge by surface indi- cations, the Red Sox would prefer to see the Browns, rather than the Yankees, win the pennant.

Washington, May S.-The Amer

Mexico nearly year ago, and SO
far General Obregon and his ad-
yisors have given no definite as

Many intimations that the Mex

PRICE BREAK

Chicago, May S.-Wheat showed
unexpected steadiness at the start
but heavy offerings were uncover
ed on the bulge and a break fol-
lowed. Most OF the latter part of
the session prices moved within
the range established during the
hrSt hour. There was a lack of
pressure at the opening and the
buying was generally believed to be
for the account of a local short
Armour was credited with heavy
selling. The elevator situation is
becoming acute and the manage
ment is expected any moment that
grain in cars or boats will be valid
delivery under the emergency rule.
Local interests bought lao 900 bush
els or wheat to arrive from Mis-
souri, river markets. Sales of 50,-
600 bushels of wheat were made TO
go to store. Milling demand for
wheat was slow and export demand
was confined almost wholly to a
new crop wheat. Crop reports are
generally favorable. Supplies on
ocean passage decreased 4,696, GOO
Corn trade was exceedingly
slow. Light offerings gave the
market a firm start, but the de-
ferred futures eased with wheat
later in the session. Cash pre-
miums held we'll despite the re-
ported slow shipping demand. The
excellent demand for spot corn
leads one to suspect that a larger
business is being done in cash
corn for shipment than is being
reported. Seaboard reported some
export business working.
Oats were quiet. The undertone
was easier. Armour sold July and
commission houses sold September.
Cash oats are selling well. Vessel
room for 100000 bushels of oats
was chartered to Buffalo. Sea-
board reported some export bust
ness working.
Provisions were firm with hogs
at the start Liquidation set in be-
cause of the weakness of grain and
sharp break followed. Some
good buying was noted on the
break.

New York, May S.-There were

a close estimate Of the success of

Curb Market
BY STUART P. WEST

New York, May S.-Profit taking
by commission houses and pres
hure from the professionals was in
evidence on the curb exchange to-
day, especially in the issues which
have been active speculative feat
ures during recent weeks and as a
result prices drifted lower. The
oil shares were the chief support
ers, declines ranging from fractions
to more than a point. The Stand
ard Ill of Indiana was one of the
weakest. Imperial Oil of Canada
showed some resistance after early
realizing sales and there was a
steady in the Wyoming oils includ-
ing Salt Creek Consolidated, Salt
Creek Producers and Mountain Pro-
ducers.
Standard Oil of Kentucky was
easier and International Petroleum
declined rather sharply. Kirby Pc
troleum under moderate buying Or
ders moved upward against the
market Interest was shown in New
England Fuel as a result of a re-
port that a prominent banking in
terest had made a bid of $50 a
share for the Clark holdings, which
was taken to indicate that New
England Fuel might pass into the
hands of the parties directly affili-
ated with the present management
Motor stocks held well with fair
activity in Continental Motors and
steadiness in Cleveland. Durant is
sues, however, were slightly lower.
Republic Tire was a strong feature,
advancing rather sharply on ac-
tive buying by one or two commits
sion houses. Trading started in
American Drug Stares Company,
which operates a chain throughout
the south. The company's earn
ings have been showing. substan-
tial growth, rising from 1854 in
1917 to $747.069 in IL months end
ing March 81, 1921. Radio COM
mon continued in moderate sup
ply and was heavy, but Dubilier
held we'll.
Mining stocks were firmer and
quite active. Mother Lode made
another high record on the publ
cation of production figures show
ing that the company has the low
est cost in the world for a copper
producer. Rumors of a merger
with Kennecott on a one for two
basis also Influenced the stocks.

Professional sentiment today was
bearfsh, not SO much because of
anything in the outside news as be-
cause certain suspicious signs Of
weakness had seemed to have
cropped out within the market it
self. The sudden drop on Saturday
IN Barnsdalf stocks and In COM
putting and tabulating disclosed two
instances at least where the pools
had unloaded enough to warrant,
either the final termination Of the
Dull campaign or temporary good
sized reaction, permitting the
snakeout OF an outside following.
There were more Of these instances
this morning. especially in the oil
group. Then the steel stocks were
brought forth and the decline was
temporarily checked.
THE PUBLIC INTEREST.
1t was very noticeable that there
was no accumulation of over-Sun-
day buying orders as there had
been on previous weeks. This
seemed to establish the fact that the
pubic interest in the market is on
the decline. One reason for this
is tnat the stocks in which out
side speculative holdings are larg-
est have been acting very disap-
polntingly and very unprofitably
for those who have bought them ex-
pecting an early ride.
REPLOGLE.
The advance in Replogle was set
down to the fact that the company
intends to blow in it's new iron
furnaces at Wharton, N. j., next
week and probably several other
furnaces shortly after. The adj
vance in pig iron prices of several
dollars a ton in the past two
months is said to have been of bene-
ut to Replogle which reports book
lngs OF good sized tonnage at the
higher levels.

companies concerned are selling.
One of the best proofs that there
was no keen apprehension over the
european situation was supplied by
the course and commodity markets.
Ordinarily anything making for
political disturbance would put up
grain and put down cotton. But the
reverse was the case today. The
grain market was featureless and
little changed, while cotton was
very strong, reaching new high
prices for the year. Call money
remained at four per cent and there
was no change in time funds or
