New Haven, Oct. 10 P\-Yale this season sports two backiields.
 One is made up of heavy men to soften up the opposition. The other is comprised of fleet boys whose job it is to go in later and run circles around battered defense.
 The tank squad includes Mo Lennan, Parker, Snead and Taylor. The cleanup" boys are headed by Albie Booth. His mates are Beane, Muhfeld and Dunn.
 The system was worked with great success by the Ellis in theft game wiht Maryland, a additionally tough foe. One weakness develop ed in that Maryland didn't look like it had been battered particularly, eX- cept when Booth carried the ball.
 The Old Liners were easy then only because they couldn't get their hands on the elusive Albie Booth in that game had one of his best days since he fitted gaily through Army tacklers last year.
 Booth dashed two touchdowns and threw two perfect passes to Al Beane that resulted in two more scores. He also drop kicked for three extra points. He carried the ball 12 times and reeled off IA yards.
 Yale's two backfelds will have to strut against all major foes henceworth except on November &. On that date the team plays Alfred college. But on the other Satur- days beginning October II, Yale meets Brown, Army, Dartmouth, Princeton and Harvard
 The double backfeld system is to remain in force. but it will not be surprising if Albie Booth, the 144- pound New Haven town boy, is looked upon as a backfeld all by himself before the season is over.

bLUENOSE HAVING
 ITS SAILS FITTED
Canadian Schooner Undergoes
 Repairs Before Second Race

Gloucester, Mass, Oct. 10 P9A day of racing inactivity today was not one of idleness for the two fish ing schooners competing for inter national sailing honors of this an- cient port. Captain Ben Pine, skip per of the Gertrude L. Thebaud, Gloucester's entry, found little to do aboard that trim schooner after her victory in the opening race yester- day. but he and his crew gave gear and rigging minute inspection against resumption of the series to- morrow.
 It was otherwise with the Cana dian champion, Bluenose. Her sails, that fitted so badly in the opening contest, were in the hands of local sail makers, and her skipper, Cap tain Angus Walters, who has more often sailed her to victory than to defeat, was busy going over other equipment.
 Sail Misfits Badly
 Bluenose was fitted out so hastily for the international series that her misfitting suit of sail did not become fully apparent until she actually ap- peared on the racing course to trail Thebaud over the entire 37 5-S miles of rolling water. Then it was found necessary to hold up her main boom with the topping lift to prevent 1t from fouling the wheel or deck house. This spoiled the set of that big piece of canvas. The sailmak- CTS promised to have that sail, and her topsails as we'll, setting proper ly when the schooners go over the starting line tomorrow.
 Captain Angus also found himself at another disadvantage in the opening brush. Bluenose, although much larger vessel, carried only A men in her crew to the 32 aboard the Thebaud. The race committee, however. promised to furnish Cap- tain Angus with additional hands and she probably will have a full compliment of men when he next faces Captain Ben. There are many men from the maritime provinces in the Gloucester fleet and 1t was prob- able that some of them would trans fer their allegiance.

BASEBALL MOGULS
 SEEK DRAFT PEACE
Majors and Minors Meet With
 LandiS in Cleveland

Cleveland, Oct. 10 P)-settlement of the dispute over the universal draft, a perennial source of friction in the machinery of baseball, was sought by major and minor league representatives who came here for a conference today.
 Judge Kenesaw Mountain Landis. czar of baseball, was due to preside at the sessions and use his influence in an effort to settle the differences between the American and National leagues on one hand and the three class A circuits-American Asso- citation and Pacific and International leagues-on the other.
 The majors have threatened to sever all relations with the three big minors unless the universal draft is accepted. The minor trio has in- sisted on the limited draft, und er which they may retain players sought by the majors.
 lnasmuch as a complete break in relations would cut the majors from a large source of their recruits and likewise would leave the minors without markets for their stars, 1t was expected strong efforts would be made to reach compromise.

New York, Oct. 10 P1Jack (Kid) Berg of England, battles an old rival, Billy Petrolle of Fargo, N. D., in the headline ten round bout in Madison Square Garden to- night.
 The Fargo puncher gave the Bri- ton the only real trouncing of his career, stopping him in five rounds at Chicago several years ago. Later they fought to draw.
 Both these bouts, however, were waged before Berg reached his pres- ent eminence among the light weights. He stands now as an out standing challenger for Al Singers 135-pound title. His impressive performances in the last year or so have made him an to favorite over Petrolle, expert opinion hold ing that the middle westerner can hope to win only by knockout in an early round.

 Most coaches felt the last days workout should consist of nothing more than enough exercise to keep muscles limbered up.
 Although such purely sectional battles as Colgate-Lafayette, Prince ton-Brown. New York University Villanova and Syracuse are on the schedule, popular interest revolves about the march of several Southern Conference elevens into the strongholds of the North.
 Georgia Seeks Second Win
 Georgia's Bulldogs hope to make it two in a row from the Ellis of Yale at New Haven but they will be under-dogs despite the 15-0 victory they scored year ago at Athens, Ga. At Pittsburgh, Georgia Techs formidable machine which bowled over South Carolina 45-O week ago, encounters Wally Steffen's high powered Carnegie Tech eleven with the final result distinctly in doubt.
 For two other Conference teams, Virginia and Washington and Lee prospects are not 50 bright. Vir- ginia must tackle Lud Wray's Penn outfit at Philadelphia while Wash ington and Lee is facing West Vir- ginia at Charleston, w. Va.

 Two teams-Purdue the defend- ing champion, and Wisconsin, dark est Of dark horse" possibilities meet rivals which entertain few championship illusions, but the third conference game, Ohio State vs. Northwestern. brings together the two early season titular favorites.
 Northwestern was touted as the outstanding title contender even be- fore practice got under way and if the Purple's star back, Hank Brud- CT, avoids his injury jinX, promises to be one of the nations outstanding teams.
 Ohio State Wins Favor
 Ohio State, generally overlooked in preseason forecasts, gained re- spect by it's impressive performance in games with Mt.

 Purdue has championship hopes despite the loss Of it's .All-America stars Wclch and Sleight and a sched- ule which calls for six conference games. Last weeks triumph over Baylor indicated that Purdue has found capable replacements for de- parted stars.
 Wisconsin, reputed to have the best material of recent years, faces the danger of an upset in it's open- ing game. with Chicago. The Chica- go team rates far below Wisconsin, but Coach Stagg will gamble his hopes for success on q deceptive and unorthodoN passing attack.

War Dances USa to Inspire
 Indian Eleven

Lawrence, Kas., Oct. 10 LP - Pale, beef scented smoke from In- dian campf1res curled skyward to- day about the tepees of 2,000 abori- zines assembled here to see their braves take the warpath which lies between the chalkline of a gridiron.
 For a college football game was the magic which brought together in a common village once hostile tribesmen from widely separated reservations. Present were the denizens of the painted desert, the Dakotas' prairies, woodlands of the northwest, Montana's rugged peaks and desolate Osage hills of Oklaho- ma.
 The braves of Haskell institute government Indian school, faced a University of Kansas football team for the first time in A years. In keeping with tribal tradition, the copper-hued warriors were inspired on the eve of combat by war dance. It was staged by more than a hundred braves from score of tribes.
 Pottawatomie, Cheyenne, Sioux, Arapahoe, each danced the ancient war dance of his tribe in a modern, school stadium, illuminated by a silver harvest moon-and football fioodlights.
 Weird Spectacle
 It vas a scene of barbaric splen- dor-half naked, twisting, writhing, wheeling bodies daubed with war paint: throbbing kettle drums and shrill war chants quavered apparent ly with savage sincerity; war bon nets gorgeous with eagle feathers; beads. wampum, elks teeth and tinkling bells.
 Going through the ritualistic steps which once presaged blood shed were moccasined feet which, Haskell authorities said. had sped along the trail of human foemen. There were elders brandishing toma- hawks who had sent quiverins ar rows into hairy bison. When the programmed dance was concluded. the old braves, including former Chief Bacon Rind of the Osages and Chief Magpie of Chey- enne, Wyo., credited with fighting at Clusters last stand. repaired to their village pitched on the schools grounds.
 In a few moments, however, the drums again throbbed their mono 4Ns told. An impromptu dance was on. Above it all sounded the high notes Of chant, which may have been the Indian equivalent of hold that i line"
