GRID TIE MARS
EASTERI:N'S
RECORD

Eastern high schools football
maintained a clean slate in the high
school series when the Guyon elev-
en- slipped over a touchdown in the
third quarter of the game with
Western to deadlock the count at
to 6. At the same time Eastern
lost a possible chance to tie with
Central for the lead In the series.
Central has been undefeated. as
has Eastern, but the Blue and
White has had no tie games. That
will automatically give the Kelly
machine the pennant, If they Gan
remain unbeaten.
Hugh McDiarmid was Westerns
savior. He snaked his way through
the Eastern for a pretty twenty
five-yard run, despite the heavy
coating of snow on the field. Tom
my David missed the kick. Angus
Heeke tied his team up when. he
plunged over from the 1-yard line.
Previously, Eastern had recovered
q tumble on the 12-yard line.

ton teams with give football fans
their opposition in two Of the ath-
letic events here today which will
help fill the gap caused by the
lack Of a big football game, the
Naval Academy varsity playing
Michigan at Ann Arbor.
Gallaudet, the silent college
eleven, will play st. Johns. They
are old opponents and the game
should be a tight one. st. Johns,
since it's victory over Delaware last
Saturday, has gained a lot of con-
fidence and is looking for q second
victory.
AS the varsity teams do not meet,
the Georgetown fresh and Naval
Academy plehes must settle the
ancient rivalry between the institu
tons today. The Navy plebe team
has a lot of fine material, promis-
ing much for the varsity Of next
season.
There are also two soccer games,
the varsity against Swarthmore and
the plebes against Maryland State
Normal, and boat race among the
eight-oared crews of the first class.

YALE AND ARMY
CLASH IN
MUD
Ell Has Won Is Out Of "a
Contests Over Nearly
Quarter Century

NEW HAVEN, Conn.,. Oct. 81
A quarter OF a century Of football
relations, during which Yale has
emerged victorious from fifteen Of
the twenty-four contests, will be
closed here today for the edifica-
ton of the thousands packing the
Yale bowl when the followers of
the bulldog clash on a muddy field
with the Army.
Only three times In the last
twenty.four years have the West
Pointers been able to outscore the
Ellis, but on six occasions they
have succeeded in holding the tai
lies to a tie. Yale, however, can
look back across the vista Of years
and take cheer from their 24-to.0
victory in 1899-their high.water
score against the Army.
Today, despite the Army's vic.
tory over Notre Dame, Yale entered
the game a slight favorite. The
general prediction was for q very
narrow margin OF points in favor
OF the Blues. This despite two
technical weaknesses of YaIe-first,
injuries which have taken from
their line four regulars, Halfbacks
Ben Cutler and Billy Kline, Right
Tackle Ben Butterworth and Left
Guard Bill Webster. Captain Jimmy
Joss also will start the game not
fully recovered from a slight injury
suffered early in the week. The
second handicap Is the uncertainty
OF Yale's organized rush line, which
from tackle to tackle. is wholly
experimental in makeup.
Against this, West Points eleven
is composed of players who had
years of gridiron experience before
they entered the Military Academy.

| end of his trunk against the ground.
and at the same time blowing air
through it.
1 have several times followed a tiger
for a considerable distance by making
use of this habit of the elephant. II
you know roughly the direction in
which the tiger has gone and nave an
elephant which will give tongue on
coming across the tiger scent, YOU
can follow the tiger by making the
ell Jhant cast forward in semi-circles
thus picking up the trail from time 10
time.
I was greatly assisted in this way
last year in recovering wounded
tiger, which had galloped into a long
and narrow strip of extremely dense
grass.
We beat the grass without the tiger
appearing. 1t then seemed probable
| that the tiger had gone straight
through the grass, out in the forest
on the far side. There was no possi-
bility of tracking on the hard ground.
| I, therefore, sent on an elephant
which could be relied on to squeal on
coming across fresh tiger scent,
through the forest parallel to the
grass, about a hundred yards away.
She gave no sign of the tiger, so I
concluded that the wounded animal
was lying in the grass, which was
about nine feet high and very thick
and matted. This we beat again and
again until the animal disclosed his
presence by jumping with snarl on
| to one of the elephants, clawing her
| considerably across the top of her
| trunk and then dropping into the
grass. He was now located. Form
| ing up the four elephants, which were
all l had, we advanced on him.
The mahouts showed a little desire
| to advance and each one tried to
keep a little bit behind the others.
With another rush and a snarl the
/ tiger sprang onto my elephants head,
| but I was ready for him and lucky
| snap shot as he landed took him be-
| tween the eyes and tumbled him off
| dead before he had time to do any
| damage. In fact, the elephant only
showed one very small claw mark on
| the top of her head as the result
| Of her adventure.
Until he was wounded, driven into
| a corner or alarmed by something on
| ahead. tiger will very seldom
