HOCKEY LEAGUE OPENS
Five Teams Stand in First Place While Others Arc no Worse on Than Second,

New York, Nov. IS LPl-The Ma tional Hockey League season for 1923 was just one day old today the only day In the year that five teams can share first place in the standing while the others are no worse off than second.
 A share of the spotlight was cost ly for the New York Rangers, for in defeating the Toronto Maple Leafs to 2. the local squad lost the services of "Taffy" Abel, giant de- fense star, probably for the greater part of the season. Abel suffered a fractured left wrist in a miXup close to the Ranger net in the first period. He played five minutes before pain forced him from the ice to a hos pital.
 The world champion Ottawa Sena- tors started weakly in quest of an- other championship, losing to the Montreal Maroons, 10 l.. in a fast, clean game. The Chicago Black Hawks tied with Boston II in the first overtime match of the year.

Crimson Hoping to Turn Back
 Yale Next Saturday

New York, Nov. 16 Pl-The rank est Of the seasons underdogs Harvard eleven that has won only four Of seven games-worked quiet iy today on a surprise package that may yet turn mighty Yale and the entire eastern football world topsy- turvey.
 Other Crimson teams as equally despaired of as the husky youngsters drilling calmly and confidently for the Bulldog invasion of the Harvard stadium Saturday. have proved that
 anything may happen" In the an- nual meeting of these scions of east ern football.
 Only two years ago, another Yale squad, headed straight for stardom, was held to a scoreless tie by a Har- yard team that seemed touchdowns weaker. And in 1921 and 1922, moderate Crimson elevens developed enough power In the final weeks drive to whip Bulldog aggregations that had bid for greatness all sea- son.
 Turning even the brilliant for ward passing attack of Yale to their own side of the argument, Harvard points ont that no game is lost as long as there is time for just few moro passes, IS the Ellis proved in downing Princeton last Saturday. Working on that principle. Harvard is strcssinG passing-and defense of the other fellows heaves.
 The Crimson has drafted a new coach, Frank (Shag) Shaughnessy from MCGill university, where later al passing long has been an art in the game as played in Canada. He will work with Dave Guarnaccia, Bill Potter, Art French and Joe Crosby through the week in an ef- fort to develop a branch Of the Har- ward attack that has shown consid- crable promise.
 Harvard, in all probability. will face the ace Of Yale passers. Johnny Hohen. the youth who injured his el- smothered Princeton in the final minutes of play. Hoben has all most recovered from the hurt and with John Garvey, plunging back, and Captain Webster, probably will answer the starting whistle. Garvey bruised his shoulders Saturday and Webster aggravated an old leg in- jury.
