HARVARD PAPER URGES
 FISHER TO REMAIN
Alumni Bulletin Would Have Him Continue as the Football
 Coach There.

Cambridge, Mass, Nov. e7 Pl- The retention of Bob" Fisher as head football coach at Harvard is urged in an editorial In the current issue of the Harvard Alumni Bulle- tin, on the ground that the stand of the crimson eleven in It's battle with Yale was 'one of the most eXtraor- dinary performances ever seen on football field" The Bulletin said:
 Fisher assumed charge of foot ball this year against his own in. clination and only because he was urged to do so as a matter of duty. He said when he finally consented to take the reins again that he would serve for one season and only in or der that the Harvard authorities might have time and opportunity 10 find another head coach.
 We are not content with that sit uaton and we express the hope that the athletic authorities will try to bring 1t about that Fisher Is con- tinued at the head of Harvard foot ball"
 Condemnation of college football as played at present and the sugges- ton that English rugby be adopted in it's place are contained in letters appearing In the bulletin from the pens of F. C. Woodman, Harvard 'SS, and George A. Derby. Harvard '05.
 Describing the college game as stupid dangerous and brutal" Mr. Woodman said:
 American football has become business rather than a game. Those participating 1t, especially In col lege, arc usually doing so for person. al glory and fame, or as a duty to the college, or through unwilling compulsiOn, not for pleasurable or healthfnl exercise. The players gen. orally dislike it, consider 1t drudgery and punishment, and are glad when it Is all over"

MORE LOVE LETTERS IN
 RHINELhNDER SUIT LIKELY
Young Octoroon Wife Is To Be Called to Witness stand
 on Monday.

New York, Nov. 27 UP Tho fortune of young Leonard Kip Rhinelander Is fast disappearing as his suit 10 annul his marriage to the daughter of a negro taxi driver proceeds. There are indications he will be practically penniless when the trial ends.
 In d preliminary hearing his counsel stated that his multi-mi- lionaire father had disinherited him and that he had only a s300,- GOO legacy from his grandfather. IL is understood that the father has not advanced one cent for expenses.
 Attorneys fees. alimony and in- vcstigations have eaten up the young mans fortune. One of the most ex- pensive items was the tracing Of the brides ancestry back to Eng land and the West Indies. An in- vestiGator was sent to Europe sev- cral times to gather evidence. This expense was rendered needless by the withdrawal at the beginning Of the trial of the wife's formal de- nial that she had negro blood.
 The first witness when the trial re-opens Monday is expected to be George Jones, the wifes mulatto father.
 Mrs. Rhinelander also is expected to testify Monday. Her attorneys say they have only a few questions to ask and her husbands counsel profess to rely more upon her let. ters than upon her cross examina- ton. There Is possibility that she will be confronted with more of her own love letters.
