RAIL BONDS LEAD

Approval of Eastern Carrier
Merger Proves BuIIish In

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK. July 22.-Bonds ad-
vanced in a broad movement today, led
by the railroad list. The volume OF
trading was heavy.
The market opened sharply higher.
stimulated by the report of the Inter
state Commerce Commission approving
the our-party merger plan for all East
ern railroads except the New England
carriers While the decision has been
anticipated for some weeks. it caused
brisk buying in nearly all rail issues. 1t
proved of such moment to the market
that the signing of the home loan relief
bill by President HcoTer, raising the re-
sources Of the Reconstruction Finance
Corporation to nearly $4,000, 100000, was
ali.io@t overlooked.
Naturally the bonds that gained most
were those of the roads directly affected

Industrials continued their advance
with special strength in motors. rub
bers, oils and steels. Utilities joined
the advance.
While some quarters had expected
cut in the New York Federal Reserve
rediscount rate, now 81 per cent, in
view of the new Government financing
soon to be announced. there was no
interruption in the gradual advance
Of Government bonds. Signing Of the
relief bill assured that low coupon
treasures now selling at discount will
be eligible for the backing of approx
mately S9O00COO 900 in currency author

In the foreign department German

Half Dozen of East's Leading
Teams Threatened With First
Defeats in Struggles Today

Harvard, although its showing against
Dartmouth was unimpressive, was
slight favorite over Browns unbeaten
team. Columbia was also given slight
edge over Cornell, with much depend
ing on the work of Johnny Ferraro,
brilliant Cornell back.
The many teams that no longer were
in the race for the mythical sectional
championship, after one or more defeats,
offered great program of games which
shared the days interest with the per-
formances of the unbeaten few, partic-
ularly in long array Of intersectional
battles.
IN the East, New York University
i faced Purdues rugged Boilermakers,
Army entertained william and Mary,
Syracuse met the Michigan State eleven,
which vanquished Fordham last week,
and Manhattan played Oglethorpe.
Princeton and West Virginia Travelled
West to meet pair Of strongly favored
rivals in Michigan and Marquette.
The sixteenth Yale-Dartmouth strug
gle at New Haven topped list Of games
backed by records Of old rivalry and
bearing the promise of interesting en-
counters. The White Indians from New
Hampshire were favorites to defeat
Yale for the first time in q series that
goes back to 1884.
Other traditional rivalries were re-
sumed in the Lafayette Washington
and Jefferson, Boston College -Fordham,
Villanova- -Bucknell, Trinity Wesleyan.

n YEW YORK, october ga good
nj half of the bakers dozen of
" Eastern foot ball teams which
came up to the last October
Saturday with records unsmirched by
defeat were in serious danger of having
their clear states spoiled today.
Six of them were paired off in three
decisive games, and two of those con-
tests, Harvard-BroWn and Columbia
Cornell. were rated as the nearest things
to toss-ups. Holy Cross, however, was
favored over unbeaten but somewhat
smaller Catholic University.
Pittsburgh, although one Of the best
in the East, was distinctly the underdog
as the Golden PantherS went out to
do battle with the great Notre Dame
scoring machine, and Johns Hopkins,
although victorious over one of the
Middle Three" Lehigh, was given only
an outside chance to defeat q second
member of the trio, Rutgers.
COLGATE, on the other hand, was a
~ top-heavy favorite to continue its
brilliant string of victories at the
expense of thrice defeated Penn State
team. Penn held the edge over Navy,
although the Quakers were rather fear
full of Navy's passing. Western Mary
land was favored over ppyola Of Balti-
more.
Among the unbeaten little fellows
Susquehanna was safe with an open
date, but Waynesburg and Lowell Tex
tile faced good opposition In Westm1uS-

TWO LONG DASHES
UNDO|NG Of HOYAS
Enable Detroit to Win, 1870
Otherwise Georgetown
Is Greater Gamer.

~ ETROIT, Mich, october 29.-
Homeward bound and licking
the wounds today of the sea-
sons third consecutive defeat
inflicted last night by the University of
Detroit by 13 to o. Georgetown Hill
toppers face the task of developing an
attack more potent than that displayed
against New York u, Western Mary
land aid Detroit if they mean to snap
out of their slump at the expense of
West Virginia next Saturday.
Unable to score against the Titans
last night, the Hoyas now have played
180 minutes of foot ball with only six
polnts-that marker scored against
Western Maryland-to show for it.
Georgetown might well have gained
a scoreless tie last night had it not
been for two long runs by McCracken
and Mott. The former took AL Kelly S
punt early in the second quarter and
weaved his way through broken field
to run 73 yards for a touchdown.
Not until late in the final period was
Detroit able to get their second marker,
Mott taking the ball on his 43-yard
stripe and dashing down the sideline
for touchdown. Hillary Costello
managed to tackle the Titan flash be-
fore he reached the goal line, but Mott
fell over the last white stripe.
Take away those two runs, totaling
124 yards, and Georgetown gained more
yardage on the ground than Detroit
The Hoyas' passing attack, too, was
slightly superior to that of Detroit's
more famed air game
Al Kelly, the former national inter-
collegiate indoor sprint champion,
gained the most yardage, but the block
ing of the Hoyas was spotty. George
town gained much ground between the
20-yard lines, but never was serious
threat to score.

Picking the Winners.

.ONE of the most popular of all the
~ indoor and outdoor sports today
is the twisted picture puzzle in
volved in trying to pick winners from
the foot ball map. The number OF
contestants might easily run into the
millions.
But the game at least has one cheer
full side-the public at large, finding
how simple and easy it is to slip on
what looks to be a sure thing, is less
inclined to indulge in old-fashioned
raucouS cries at the expense of foot
ball writer's the day after the game.
Few have the nerve to turn on the
hoarse huzza of derision where they
also have done their share of skidding.
There are many reasons for So-called
upsets. which, If one were closer to the
situation, would not prove upsets.
One is the matter of physical in
juries, which may handicap the poten-
italy better team
Another may be a decisive mental
Saturday the week before.
Still another is the matter of luck,
cne item being the interception of for
ward passes now and then by those
who should have been somewhere else
Then, often enough. one team can
outplay the other rather badly and still
lose
1t is easy enough to see where any
attempt to pick winners on a large
scale is loaded with topsy- -turvy turns
and is replete with shocks. And this
doesn't mean the natural set-ups which
rarely miss fire, referring to the list
where any one ought to nail 19 out
of 20.

Down South there will be hard fight

For example, those picking Harvard
to beat Brown must figure the posi-
bility of Harvard'S battering against
Dartmouth last Saturday, recalling also
that Brown has a fine, charging line,
always dependable factor
In the Columbia Cornell test one
must remember that Cornell missed
Dobie's keen foot ball brain weeks be-
fore the Princeton game and that
Johnny Ferrara, a fast, smart triple
threaten, a rubber man in action, was
also missing in the Tiger test. And
that Columbia has the heavier casualty
list on the eve of battle.
Dartmouth ought to beat the type of
foot ball Yale has been playing all year.
But Dartmouth has failed to beat Yale
before when the Green was three touch
downs better than the Blue. Dartmouth
never has beaten Yale. And Yale can
hardly remain all season as ragged as
Yale has been to date. Also, the Bull
dog will turn when trodden upon When
worm turns, it is still a worm, but
bulldog is different.
Purdue ought to beat N. Y. u, but
the Violet may break into the flame
that caught Georgetown. And a strong
Navy line defense has at last been
hooked to a much better forward pass
defense, as Princeton discovered a week
ago.
You can see from this that any num-
ber of analytical fast ones must be
