The football game between West Point and Leland Stanford in Cali
 fornia today will be broadcast by WEAF and WABC. On account of the difference in time, the game will
 not start until nearly sunset in the
 east, or 4:45 o'clock, to be specific.
 The Glee club of Wesleyan uni versity, known as the Singing Col lege" since 1863. will be heard ln program of rollicking songs and choral numbers this afternoon at 3.30 o'clock. The Wesleyan Glea club is one of the oldest college singing groups in the country. It was the first to make a photograph record and the first to make a con- cert tour, as far back as 1863. h that year the club travelled on foot from Middl otown to the White Mountains with the final concert on Mt. Washington. In 1890 the or ganization toured as far west as Chicago. There an agent of Thomas
 Edison invited them to make a rec ord of their singing, thus becoming the first college club to achieve this distinction. This program may be heard through WEAF.

NEW YORK, November 27.-Even the
most skeptical admit that in the field
of business. Herbert Hoover is q master
workman. Those who have seen the
dif1culties which have attended his
leadership in the political field vision
an entirely different type of leadership
when he puts his hand to the business
wheel He's "at home" there.
1t is the Presidents belief that the
stock market boom and subsequent coll
lapse should have no permanent enect
on the economic and business system
Of the country as q whole; the business
was and Is sound; that credit. since the
stock market drop, has become tncreas-
ingly easy, and that the whole world
now can 60 ahead with the plans which
had been held up because Of the cen
centration of credit in Wall Streets
gambling vortex.
Wesley Mitchell, authority.on business
cycles, says that the "paucity of con-
tracts is what brings on business depres-
sionS. II confidence can be maintained
to q point where business and con-
struction contracts will be .$let" during
the present period. just as they have
been in the past. no depression Of any
duration should follow.
The Presidents prompt organization
