COLLEGE ELEVENS
 GET GOING TODAY
Final Contingent Of Major Foot ball EIeVenS Swing Into Action

New York Oct. 2.-tP>-The final contingent of major football elevens, led by the Big Three and the Army and Navy, in the east, and the Big Ten in the western conference, pace the white stripes of college gridirons today as the last of hundreds of teams swing into their fall sched- ules.
 Two intersectional conflicts vic with the opening games of Harvard, Princeton and Yale for the interest of eastern pigskin followers. A husky middle eleven from the Naval academy at Annapolis, endowed with plenty of fine material and hoping this year to break the Army spell under the membership of Navy Bill' Ingram meets it's first test of the season in Purdue, Q storm eleven from the western con ference ranks. The Army mule at West Point, under a new leader in Riff" Jones, has a veteran squad cntrenChed on the Hudson 10 re- pei another western invasion, that of Detroit university. Army faces a stirring conflict with the capable machine of Gus Dorais, former Notre Dame field General.
 A promising Harvard eleven, talk ing on a new lease of life under the tutelage of Arnold Horween, Crimson line smasher of few years back. has picked a tartar for a. first assignment in Little Geneva. The "Bo' McMillan squad held Cornell to one touchdown last Sat urday. The loss of Crosby, one of the best of the 1925 backs, and Turner, Varsity center last year, through scholastic deficiencies on the eve of the opener, has struck a powerful blow at Crimson hopes, now spring up again after the disasters of the past seasons.
 Princeton, champion Of the Big Three, faces another titleholder in Amherst, lord of the Little Three, an opponent that last year held the powerful Tiger attack scoreless for half a game before crumpling 27 10 Q before the Orange and Black onslaught. The Yale Bulldog, re- vivirg the Huddle system under Tad Jones, sets it's teeth into the throat of the terrier from Boston university. The Eli machine, with another high scoring combination in the making. may find trouble in the Boston band, coached by Ed Robin son, former Brown leader, and Reggie Brown, who for years scout cd Yale elevens for Harvard.
 An interesting battle is scheduled in the Pittsburgh Georgetown con- flict. The SmoketoWn warriors bare ly edged out a to win over Allegheny last week while George town was rolling lip a mass of points on DreXel. West Virginia and Wash ington and Lee are closely matched at Charleston. Other leading en- agreements are Syracuse and Yer mont Washington and Jefferson and Bucknell, Lehigh and Gettys- burg, Dartmouth and Hobart, Col gate and Clarkson, Cornell and Niagara, Rutgers and Crsinus, Brown and Colby and Columbia and Union.

NEW INTEREST IN
 DONOVAN ESTATE
Older Southington Residents Re
 call Sister in Boston
Special to the Herald. !


 Southington, Oct. 2.-Folloving the appearance of woman last Monday at a probate hearing on the estate of the late Jane Donovan who died last March, saying that she represented sister of James many of the resident here recall that MT. Donovan had a sister who was parted from him many years ago.
 The woman told Judge Thomas Welch who presided at the hearing Monday, that she was from Boston and that she could prove that her client was sister to the father of the testator. Judge Welch decreed that she should have until October 25 to prove the relationship.
 For a time, it was doubted that Miss Donovan had an aunt living and there being no immediate rela- tives outside of first cousins living, it semed almost impossible that any information could be given concern ing the sister. Light, however, Is be- ing thrown on the matter today through the recollections of some of the residents hereNho recall Mir. Donovan's sister and there are some who say that they would be able to recognize the woman if they saw her.
 She lived in Southngton a short While many years ago and then left for parts unknown. She would be in the neighborhood of 70 years of ge and that is probably the reason for her non-appearance at the hearing.
 Though the statements of South inGton people that Mir. Donovan had a sister may have no bearing what ever on the present case, the fact that they know that such person did exist, has given a strength to the claim of the latest contestant for q share in the estate.
 According 10 all reports. the claim Of the aunt of the deceased will supersede the score or more of claims of first cousins which have been filed. Miss Donovan's estate has been appraised at approximately Sl23.Oo0 with S10,00o of this in bank deposits in Southington banks.
