I BY United Press.
New York, Nov. l7.-Fooiball begins
to pass out tomorrow with the semi-final
card Of the 1922 season. 1t has been a
wonderful season, the best in the history
of the great game and the end of the
road comes not as a welcome event for
the millions who now follow the sport.
The next to last program OF the year
is not an eight or nine star brand like
some Of lis predecessors but there s-e a
number of attractive games on this card:
Yale against Princeton.
Penn State against Pennsylvania.
Washington and Jefferson against
Pittsburgh.
Harvard against Brown.
Dartmouth against Columbia.
Syracuse against Colgate.
Iowa against Ohio State.
Chicago against Illinois.
Michigan against Wisconsin
California against Nevada.
Not only because it is additionally the
star number Of the program. but because
it promises TO be the bitterest contest
of the day, the battle Of the Princeton
Tiger and the Yale Bull Dog is the out
standing game of the card.
Last year Yale defeated Princeton Is
TO Z and avenged the 20 to defeat the
Tigers plastered on them in 1920.
O'Hearn, the brilliant Yale halfback,
ran right end for twenty yards in the
first period and Mac Aldrich. one of the
greatest Of all Yale players, added the
winning margin with two goals from the
field.
1t was one Of the greatest battles Of the
year and CilrOy threatened to win for
Princeton in the last two minutes of play
when he got away with a forward pass
and long run only to be downed inches
from the goal line Yale held and won.
Penn State and Pennsylvania come
close second as the best game of the
day. Since Penn pulled its surprising
Gefeat of the Navy, the Philadelphians
are treated with much more respect.
Penn State may not have as spectacular
team as last years eleven. but they wild
always be good as long as the Bezdek
system is used. Most critics agree that
Penn States system is as good as Har-
wards and some consider it better.
With the exception of the scoreless tie
with California, Pittsburgh gave Wash
ington and Jefferson the hardest game
of the season last year with defeat by

no, only have run out Of writing material
but he would have been more tired than
The Bengals. who worked without time
out from early in the afternoon until af-
ter dark.
The Cleyenger-Lewis-C arriiy- Dunckel
coaching staff set itself to work on the
Tigers and mol one department of the
game was overlooked yesterday. The Ii
gers went through a thorough understand
ing Of what they are supposed to do
against the Pikers.
Although no announcement has been
made from Rollins Field, ii is practically
certain that Scannen will pilot the team.
He has been doing very well in scrim-
msee this week and will have his chance
10 fight against a team from his home
city.
The style of play that the Tigers will
use tomorrow is unknown TO the large
groups of students who have been watch
ing the daily practice. The new coaching
staff has been spending much time on
line plunges, end runs and aerial plays.
The major portion of the practice this
week has been 10 drill the Bengals on
defensive play more than anything else
The Pikers. who are ii the bottom in
conference rank. will find it hard to do
much against the heavier Bengal team
if the latter is playing football.
Kershaw. quarterback. who was in
jured in the Ames game, jumped off
Of his clutches yesterday afternoon and
announced 10 the field that he was going
TO play agains, Kansas. The doctors
took the last piece Of cast from Kershaw's
leg. Doc Lawler is working on RED"

one touchdown. Pittsburgh got away bad
ly this year but they came back strong
and are bound to give the Presidents a
real fight. There is considerable rivalry
between the two clubs.
Harvard will have anything but an
easy game against Brown, although the
Crimson with the Yale game just one
week off may be content to win by a
field goal or single touchdown. Colum-
bia is just the kind Of an cratic team to
turn around after miserable season and
give Dartmouth a good fight. Colgate
under the coaching of Dick Harlow, HUI
90 Bezdek's former lieutenant, has de-
veloped into a good eleven and Syracuse
will have no cinch to win.
Ohio State hasn't the habit Of being

Bedtime Stories
The Young Fox Is Prisoner
By Thornton W. Burgess
Who loses freedom, to has cost
The vdlae learns Of what is lost.
-Reddy Fox.

The young Fox who had hidden in
the old barrel back of Farmer Brown s
henhouse felt as if he must die o!
fright. Outside Bowser the Hound
was jumping about and barking as If
he were trying to bark his head OF,
Stlll the young Fox was not without
hope. Bowser had tried to get into
that barrel and couldn't The open
ing was not big enough for him. The
young Fox hoped that he would be-
come tired of barking and go away.
But Bowser had no intention OF
going away. He knew that if he
barked long enough and hard enough
some one would be sure to come from
Farmer Browns house to find out
what ne was barking about Some
enc did come. 1t was Mrs. Brown
She had heard Bowser barking and
she knew by the sound of his voice
that he had found some one around
the henhouse. She stopped down and
peeped into the barrel. All She could
see was pair of eyes that in the
darkness seemed to be greenish.
Well, Bowser," said she. II don't
know sahom you have trapped in there,
pur | suspect It is some one who was
after those chickens. I'll Just turn
>NN~S pAAASA W vi SfiO AIlQ put q D0afU
over the hole. That will keep him 81
there until your master comes home =
So Mrs. Brown turned the barrel
!. up, put board over the hole ON tor
and on this put heavy stone. The
young Fox was prisoner, and no
mistake. Meanwhile Bowser sat down
outside to keep watch. He had
learned BY long experience that Foxes
are SO sharp-witted that they often
escape when it seems as il they had
no chance to and he didn't intend to
allow this Fox to get away.
But Bowser needn't have been so
watchful. That young Fox was too
frightened even to try to think of a
way to escape. How he did wish he
had needed his mothers advice and
kept away from Farmer Browns.
How he did wish he hadn't listened
to Sammy Jay and that he hadn't all
lowed his curiosity to overcome his
common sense. How he did wonder
what would become Of him.
Bowser had stopped barking, but
every now and then he walked
around that barrel and shifted. The

First Automatic Phones
Here Operative Tonight
1,7OO Lines in Pennsylvania
District to Adopt New System
at Midnig,lt

At midnight tonight the first ma
chine switching telephone central Of
fee will be put in operation in New
York City. The new apparatus has
been installed by the New York Tele-
phone Company in the Pennsylvania
central office district and will serve
about .1.7Oo lines. After midnight sub
scribers. served by this Office will use
instruments with dials mounted on the
base and will dial their local calls in
stead of giving numbers orallv to. an
operator, who then completes the con-
nections.
Other telephone subscribers will con-
tinue to use the manual type of instru-
ment, and will give their calls to the
operator. The new Office has been so
co-ordinated with other Offices in the
city's telephone system that It is not
necessary for any subscriber to know
which type Of instrument he is calling.
Several other central Offices in vari-
Gus parts Of the city will be placed on
a. machine switching basis within q
short time.
