BULLDOG TO MEET
TIGER IN SD GAME
Yale Favored to Score Its
18th Win-Many Rivals
in East Clash.
BY HERBERT w. BARKER,
Associated Press Sports Writer.

N VIEW YORK, November 12.-With
only one intersectional game OF
any consequence on the pro-
gram, Eastern foot ball fans on
Saturday will turn to the re-
newalsof a half dozen ancient rivalries.
New York University's clash with
Missouri of the Big Six heads the inter-
sectional slate on the Atlantic Sea-
board, but there will be more interest
in such games as those involving Yale
and Princeton, Cornell and Dartmouth,
Penn and Columbia, Colgate and syria
cuSe, williams and Amherst, and Tufts
and Bowdoin, all Of them r1valrieS OF
80 years or more.
Yale, with little Albie Booth for a
spark plug, will be a decided favorite
over Princeton Tiger able to win only
two games this year, both OF them over
minor opposition. In this rivalry. going
back to 1873, Yale has won Ct games,
Princeton is, with 9 ties.
PENIS twentieth meeting with CO.
lumbia looks like another triumph for
the warriors from Philadelphia, who
have beaten Columbia is tlrnes since
1878. Columbia has won three games,
and one was tie.
williams and Amherst have met As
times since 1884, with Williams the vic
tor on "a occasions and Amherst on IT,
Four games ended In Ties. comparative
records this year indicate closely
fought game.
Colgate appears to pack too much
power for Syracuse this year and ex-
poets its seventeenth victory OF the
series.
Unbeaten Cornell may not be that
way after the thirteenth meeting with
Dartmouth, which has won z of the IL
previous meetings, the other five going
to Cornell. In the last eight meetings
tie two teams have scored an aggregate
of 378 points, an average of more than
~ to game.
Tufts looks good enough to record its
nineteenth victory over Bowdoin.
PittSburgh's unconquered Panthers
take on a hardy city rival IN Carnegie
Tech. Harvard may find the Holy
Gross defense hard to pierce. Davis
and Elkins, unbeaten thus far. tackles
Harry Stuhldreher's crack Villanoya
outfit. One of the toughest games OF
the day will bring together Bucknell
and Penn State.
Georgetown should win from West
Virginia. Although the score may be
close and Lehigh will be favored over
Rutgers. Boston College invades the
Midwest again for Friday game with
Marquette.

hard battles it has been through. In
fact, Morgantown should send to Wash
ington for Saturdays affray a team
quite 1T to give Georgetown much
more than interesting afternoon.
Georgetown and West Virginia have
been tussling on the gridiron for some
years, with the former generally sue
cessful. The Hoyas were triumphant,
IL to 0, last year, and they are favorites
to win this year on the 1929 records Of
the two teams. Georgetown this Fall
has won five games, lost one and tied
in one. It has scored 80 points to for
the opposition. All the scoring against
GEORGETOWN was done In its lone defeat
by Western Maryland. West Virginia
has won three games, lost as many, and
been in two ties. 1t has scored II
points and its opponents SO.
The foot ball game Saturday win not
be all the entertainment for George
towns alumni and guests at the home
coming celebration. Festivities will start
Friday night with the smoker and
alumni meeting at the willard Hotel,
and there will be class reunions Satur-
day morning. But the game, OF course,
will draw the crowd. Tickets already
have been placed on sale, and desirable
reservations may be made at the ticket
agency in Spalding's sport goods store
on G street near Fourteenth, or at the
athletic office at Georgetown University.

From the moment the police pup ar
rived the terriers disposition changed.
The friendly pup occupied a box on the
porch. Once in q while she was per-
mitted to enter the house. On these
occasions the terrier leaped at her with
growl.
The playful pup soon discovered that
he was not frolicking with her and
meant business. He resented her pres
ence in Ibis" house. She wanted to be
friendly, but her advances were met
with what might have been serious con-
sequences had his sharp teeth become
fastened in her throat.
One cold day the new puppy was in
vited in to lie before the roaring fire.
The owner was present to see that the
terrier behaved himself. The phone
rang and the two dogs were left alone,
A second later there were growlS and
squeals. A tong and shovel fell to the
stone hearth. The owner dropped the
receiver and rushed into the room to
see the fine police pup fighting for its
life. The dogs were separated. Grad
ually the little terrier became moroSe
and moody. His appetite failed and a
few months later he was laid away un-
der sheltering maple tree.
A veterinary surgeon said that the
terrier had died of certain disease.
Those who knew him knew better. He
had died OF jealousy.

Lord Byron had a perfect passion for

In the pretty heads of brunette ladies.
He admired the dark Spanish type

Mary Duff, wee lasSie with dark
brown hair, almost black, so touched
his heart that he could scarcely sleep
for many O night.
His second love came in his twelfth
year. Its object was his cousin, Mar
garet Parker. Inspired by her dark
eyes and Grecian face, he made his
first essay into poetry.
She loved him, too. But she lived
only two years more.
He was soon in another passion, this
time for another cousin, Mary Cha
worth. Mary gave him no encourage
ment.
There was o mysterious love during
an affair with young lady who went
about with him dressed in boys cloth
ing. Nor is 1t to be supposed that
blondes did not claim some of his at
tention as well as brunetteS. After
he won fame, all women pursued him.
For q time Lady Caroline Lamb
claimed him. She had golden hair, but
also those dark eyes which the poet
so constantly admired. A mad crea-
ture, queen of a dissipated society,"
and careless Of morals, she disregarded

There is very special interest in
plants that have come to us from far
away-happy-go-lucky stowaways and
waits that have spread into our nora
from Europe, Asia and even sometimes
from the tropics. And Summer is the
time to look for most Of them. Our
Spring flowers and our Autumn flowers
are almost purely natives. Now, when
there comes desolate lull, in the dead
OF Summer, in our own native Wild
flowers, even o city man viii not fail
to notice the gay and wicked weeds
that have Ynarshaled their legtons,
green banners unfolded, all about us
like o besiektng army.
What is q weed, after all? It Is
something like o person that you have

him. It often happens that familiarity
conquerS your dislike; he Is not such
o bad sort Of fellow, after all. And

The union was wrecked on the rocks
Of infelicity. Byron consoled himself
with a beautiful brunette, Jane Cler-
mont, or, as she called herself, "Claire."
It was time for Byron to get out
Of England. Now came the residence
abroad
claire" passed from his life as others
had done. He cast her or after she
had borne him daughter. And now,
for q time, Mariana Segati, black
eyed and black haired wife Of linen
draper, with whom he lodged in Ven
ice, became q very goddess to the
poet.
There seems some doubt az to
whether Byron's last affair Of the heart
was with a blonde or brunette. She
was the youthful Comtesse Teresc
Guiccioli. Tom MedWin, who ought to
know, says her hair and eyes were dark.
She left her husband for love Of
Byron. But. he was soon embarrassed
by her. Probably he never loved her.
At any rate he was considerably CEN
sured when he died, because she who
had sacrificed wealth and position for
him was not remembered In his wiz
by a bequest.

What We Read

The magazines which tell the story
Of those obscure yet dauntless ones who
rise from poverty to glory are sold in
countless tons and tons. We often hear
Smart Alexis jeering at publications
Of this type; the "1ntellectuals" are
sneering, they say such stories are but
tripe. But am glad SO many read
them, and find In them the dope de-
sired; methinks the toilers often need
them for Inspiration when they're tired.
The young man reads how Jabez Jingle
has risen from low estate, and
straightway tightens his surcingle, de-
termines also to be great "If Jabez
left the dump behind him." the Young
man says, with shining eyes, "I1l take
the trail he took and find him, and
show him'I can win q prize. I've been
discouraged for season, did not seem
to get ahead; tonight I thought I'd
bitter reason for coming home with
laggard tread. But having read of
Jabez Jingle, see that chances great
are mine: the story sets my nerves
a-tingle, and sends a thrill along my
spine" It is hopeful sign, my mas
tiers, that people read those uplift tales
which are Endorsed by all our pastors,
In which white virtue still prevails.

BEAUTY CHATS
Hair Treatments.

A great many people write to me at
this time Of the year and complain of
hair troubles. In many cases I think
the trouble Is not with the hair but
with the weather. for the hot days are
sure to cause . certain amount of hair
to fall out. These days, however, are
excellent for treating the scalp; i'm
provement in the general health Of the
hair Is much more noticeable now than
IL treatment Is begun In the Winter
time. One important reason Is that
hats are not worn so much, that the
hair Is shampooed oftener and generally
kept in better condition also that hot
weather makes the hair grow.
Here Is an excellent tonic which adj
wise you to use at least twice a week
for the next couple Of months: Precipi-
tated sulphur. 80 grains; carbon deterg-
ent, so. drops; castor oil, 10 drops; alco-
hol COS per cent?, ounces; tincture
cantharides, drains; cologne. drains;
