ChisON Beat Cubs.

Chicago, Oct. 12.-The White SoS evened up the series with the Cubs yesterday by taking pitchers battle 4 to 3. Each club now has won two games. The veteran Alexander was opposed by the rookie Dixie Lever cite and more than held his own un- til the sixth inning, when he began to weaken.
 The Sox then started their uphill fight and at the end of the seventh had tied their rivals. Alexander then frightened up and it looked like extra innings until Hooper uncorked line drive to right which was good for two bases. Collins out moved Hoop CT to third and Sheely shot a hot grounder over third base which sent Hooper home with the winning run.
 Leverette held his opponents to seven hits, three of which were made by Statz, while the Sox touched Alex ander for ten safeties, Hooper mak- tug three and Collins and Sheely two each.

|FORDHAM SWAMPED
 BY BOSTON COLLEGE
Twenty Thousand Fans Witness
 the Rout Of New Workers

Boston, Oct. 13.-Twenty thousand fans saw Boston College smother Fordham at the Heights yesterday, the score being 27 to 0. Boston used substitutes literally and might easily have run the tally higher by sticking closer to her first string men.
 Fordham appeared a bit lighter and 1t was expected she would resort freely to overhead play. Her few at- tempts at this style were not partic- ularly productive.
 Boston College played with plenty of power. The opening quarter saw one touchdown pushed over and the second quarter added two more, the score being 20 to when the rest period came. Comerford made the initial touchdown, taking Darding's fine forward pass for a long run, fol- lowing one of 3S yards by Cronin.
 DarlinG's Big Run.
 In the second period Darling raced TO yards and put the ball on Ford hams one-yard line. Boston was as- sessed 15 yards but made the neces- sary 16 yards in three downs. A bit later Paten trapped the leather when Fordham fumbed on their own eight yard line and Kelleher scored soon after. Paten kicked successfully for two extra points on the three tries.
 With the first string men back fin he lineup in the final period, Boston scored its fourth touchdown, Darling doing the honors. Paten kicked a nice goal, bringing the total up to o7

 A NEEDED REST
Yale Grid Mentor Plans Only a
 Signal Drill for Today

New Haven, Oct. 1S.7-Yales scrim maging before the Iowa game Is over according to Head Coach Tad Jones who yesterday rested his eleven witf only painstaking signal rehearsal Yesterdays line which, with one ex, ception, Is regarded as the selection for the clash with the Hawkeyes wa, as follows:
 Left end, Eddy; left tackle, Greene left guard, Cruikshank, acting cap. tain center, Landls; right guard Cross; right tackle, Diller; right end Human; quarterback, Neidlinger left halfback, Wight; right halfback Haas; fullback. Mallory.
 At left tackle Greene, who has had only class team experience. was placed. He has developed rapidly the past fortnight and risen from the ranks of the fourth to the second team. Last Saturday he was injected into the lineup at left tackle follow the best exhibition of any tackle ex- cept the veteran Tex" Diller.
 The coaches this week have used Greene, Storrs and Joss, another nov ice to varsity ranks, in competition for the position and chances now ap- pear about even between Greene Emerson Quaile, former guard, and Storrs, for the place. Lester Miller who was clearly in the lead for the position, is still crippled by an injury received three weeks ago. He is in uniform and will probably be used in another week.
 Mike Eddy, the baseball captain, has leaped into the lead in the con- petition for end position. His grey hound following of the ball in the North Carolina game last Saturday netted Yale a touchdown which was wrested from the southerners by sim pie alertness. The rush line, as se lected' is practically a veteran com bination, with the exception of left tackle, but Mallory is the only back field regular who is in his old posi- ton. Neidlinger was second string hafback last year and has easily earned a regular position this fall. The crippling of O'Hearn and Beckett, however, has made it necessary to switch him to quarterback. John Haas, picked for right halfback, played his first varsity game last Sat urday.
 Ted Wight, substitute fullback last season, was unable to play until two weeks ago because of a recent sur gical operation.
 tri, tnx terday and planned as reserves to- morrow consisted of Luman and Hart ends; Storrs and Joss, tackles; Herr and Mckay, guards; Lovejoy and Norris, centers; Adams, quar- terback Scott and Neal, halfbacks; Cochrane, fullback.
 Yesterday O'Hearn. Beckett and Capt. Jordan were at the bowl but only Jordan was in uniform and trainer John Mack does not regard him in condition to play for anotherl week.
 Many former Yale players, taking of the holiday in New York city, witnessed the practice. They included Sammy Morse, Charley' Rafferty, Frank Lynch, Douglas Bo- meisler, Jack Owsley, Fred Graham, Clarence Alcott and Ted Coy.
 It was announced yesterday that the gates to the Bowl will open at l o'clock tomorrow. while the game WM start at 2:30 Plans to handle crowd of 1000 have been completed and all records for the attendance of the early season games were expected to be broken.
