286 NEW MEMBERS
 SIGNED BY t. OF [.
Campaign Will Be Brought to
 End Monday Night

With tho reporting of sS more members at the daily luncheon in the Chamber of Commerce exten- sion drive today, the list of new members secured this week now stands at 2SS, and the campaign will wind up with dinner and final reports on Monday evening at 6:S0 o'clock.
 Much interest was occasioned at the meeting today when in response to a request by Congressman Dan Reed 1t was found that more than two-thirds of all the workers are men who were born outside of New Britain. You should be proud of this large gathering of men born In other towns who are fighting for a better New Britain" the con- gressman from New York stated.
 The director of the drive stated that Monday nights meeting would show the successful goal achieved. He paid tribute to Attorney Don ald Gaffney and Secretary Ralph Gould and added You are going to see this thing through and have an organization that will do things"
 He stated that people in this city who assume no civic responsi- bility when they go away 10 other towns register as from Hartford. "I don't want 10 live in town where the citizens are not proud of their city" he said. The remark was greeted with a burst of ap- plauee.
 New Britain Is more cosmopolitan than either New York or cities along the Pacific coast, according to Rabbi Gershon Hadas, who quoted Presi- dent Coolidge in the statement that the strength of America lies In its component parts.
 He said one of the functions Of the Chamber of Commerce Is to make merchants and others feel that they belong one 10 another, and added that he would be happy to see every member of the Jewish race in the city become a member of the cham Der.
 He said when officials councils fail and ministers cannot achieve world peace by appealing from the pulpitS 1t will be the agency of businessmen who will finally bring this about. There is not a single agency for uniting people stronger than the agency of business" he said in conclusion.

However, Annual Harvard
Yale FootbaII Clash Decides
: Not a Thing
By DAVIS j. WALSH

. CAMBRIDGE, Mass, Nov. 21.--
e beng the modern custom, to re-
yive Hamlet annually and make
che public like it, Yale and Har-
yard were to be taken out OF. the
competitive moth balls this after
noon. carefully busted off and pre-
scented to the view Of some $4,000
customers, just as though the oc-
easion were quite worth all the
attention it will and must re-
eeive. The time was when
fale-Harvard game was the ult-
nate word in consequential sig
nificance but that time is not
now.
. Both were to enter the game as
hiscredited football teams, with
Princeton enjoying the doubtful
honor OF having won the Big Three
title well in advance or the occa-
don in question. Both have been
beaten twice this season.
But, like couple of broken down,
cid actors living on the glory or
dead past, Yale and Harvard today
were ready to drmatize something
that didn't exist They were ready
% simulate an importarice they
probably were far from feeling.
It could hardly be otherwise.
Harvard went down TO Princeton
two weeks ago and finished an
absurd second by q matter OF
IS TO 0. Princeton went up TO
Yale last Saturday and finished
first by % to IL. These figures
make today's principals look like
. couple Of fallen arches.
Yale. of course, ruled the public
choice at odds OF to 3. because it
at least showed something in the
Princeton game, while Harvard
showed nohing but a great and abid-
ing ineptitude. Since them the
Crimson came back to beat Brown.
In every week.
However. Harvard seemed destined
20 start the game without the IN
Jured Stafford at quarterback and
be is quite young man. just why
Stafford was not used early in the
season is something the Harvard
coaches will have to tell with the
rest Of the bedtime stories.
Uncertainty In the forward line
and lack OF punch in the backfield
also initiated against Harvard
chances OF scoring its first victory
over Yale in three years. The Bull
dog, weII-conditioned and rarin' to
70. had almost two complete teams.
ready to shoot at Harvard. If
need be.
The likelihood that the first
punch would decide the issue, as
& so often the case with heavy.
weight fighters, held true today.
In fact, it has held true through
out Harvard Yale history, the rec
ords showing that the team scor-
ing first almost invariably won
the football game.
: Most of the time it has been
Yale. The latter has won twenty
five games OF the series, lost thir-
teen and tied five. During the last
two years, the only thing that kept
Yale from INDUCING in a cross
country run at Harvard's expense
were weather conditions. These,
e not altogether impossible, were
highly improbable.
Barring a repetition today, Yale's
chances of running up score were
slightly better than good. It has
the man power and the attack.
Harvard has neither or. at least,
such was the case not more than
two weeks ago. It would seem
that only modern miracle could
supply all the things that were
lacking then.
