WESLEYAN LOSES EIGHT REGULARS
 OF GRID TEAM
Special to The Democrat)

N0DGCAWl NO 41hQ OCAAAOGAobIv
 Middletown, Conn, November 21 = Eight regulars of the Wes- leyan university eleven completed their three years of action with the Cardinals last Saturday and will be lost to the squad when the first call for recruits sounds on the Wes- leyan gridiron next fall, a tabula- ton of the teams members showed today. The line will suffer the greatest setback by graduation although several eligible men are expected to come up from this years frosh outfit to fill the va cancies.
 In the backfield. two first-string stars of the present season will no longer wear the Cardinal uniform. whitney, who distinguished him. self this year by his brilliant open field running and his contribution to the aerial attack of the Blott- men, and Huntress, a powerful booter and heavy line plunger. both will be lost by graduation. Both of these men are Rhodes Scholar candidates fo nomination from Connecticut this year. In the line, Frost, an end. Eastman, guard; Merritt, an end; J. Burt. a tackle; Overton, tackle; and Cap- tain Eyerly, pivot man of the squad, win all bet absent from the Cardinals rank next fall.
 Prospects for next season are frightened by the outstanding backs that Coach Blott will have to choose from. Burton, Klinger, Johnson, Robins and Coultas all saw varsity service this fall, while Horne and Merrell, both yearlings, give promise of filling regular posts next season. The line will have O'Leary and Jones, ends: Rome, B. Burt, Craig, Jennings and Wardell, guards; and Cranston, tackle; as a nucleus around which to build up it's weakened strength.

Limited Press Stan Correspondent New York, Nov 21. (UP)-In-
 vention department: scientific cir
 cles were a-buzx to-day with the
 report that Ed White, manager oi
 Jim Londos, was seeking patent
 on a perpetual motion machine called the "Gryoscopic Creek"
 "It ain't sotpped while I been around it," White is quoted as say ing. "It wrestled in Dallas, St Louis, Pittsburgh, Philadelphia, New York, and Baltimore in the last nine days. And it's been doing that for years"
 Financial department: Jim Lon- dos is not called the Golden Greek" for nothing, 1884 has not been his best one by any means, but when 1t is over he will have added a neat $500,O00 to his kick.
 Question and answer depart ment: How long will professional tennis continue to flourish? A un- til Granpa Tilden qnits, when 1t will roll over and die in its own blood.
 High pressure department: The publicity director of George Wash ington U. is circulating a poster plugging Tuffy Leemans for AL America, of a size and content worthy of Dexter Fellows herald ing the addition of a sabre-toothed, ring-tailed, nine-footed, three headed giraffe, which can cook and sew.
 Shoe on other foot departments: Princetonians who pooh-poohed the suggestion that Columbia's de- feat by the Tigers last year was largely due to Maniacrs tumble on the opening kickoff should not the chief alibi given for Princeton's poor performance against Yale. It was Sandbach's tumble on the opening kickoff. Princeton men have pointed out, that started the upset of the year.
 Who cares department: The rules committee of the United States Lawn Tennis association, 1t is rumored, met in solemn con- clave the other night to put the old quietus on a certain organizations application to conduct a tourna- ment in which players would De to one service.
 Sad failure of protege depart ment: Franny Murray. Pennsyl- vania quarterback, had three chances to kick Penn out of de- feat against Columbia Saturday. He muffed them all, failing to follow in the footsteps of his teacher, Al Kruez who, ten years ago, booted Penn to a 10-7 victory over a Co., team that included Kop- pisch and Pease.
 We agree thoroughly depart ment: Olin Dutra, national open golf champion, says that his games most cock-eyed belief is the one that the guy who has the best chance to win tournament is the player who trails the leaders by a stroke or two going into the last round.
 "That's the pure and simple says Dutra. Just try and get one of the leaders to swap scores with 8 gent who trails by even so little as one stroke. Sure, the pressure Is on the leader; but there's twice as much on the guys behind. They know they can't waste a stroke. The leader knows he can waste one, and still be level. Furthermore, he is fortified by the knowledge that If he can manage to slip a birdie in somewhere, the show is about his.

Danbury, one of the strongest eIevens in the annals of semi pro- fessional football in Connecticut. has not lost a game thus far and boasts of what perhaps is the states outstanding passing team.
 In Jack Thompson, former Lafa- yette college back, the Trojanst have a brilliant threat ball corrier. He specializes in the art of passing and the host of touchdowns rung up by the stalwart team have re- suited from the aerial hurling abil-,, ity of the ex-Lafayette player.
 The turnstiles should click mer- rily in the Hat Town Sunday for the battle shapes up like a natural, and Thomaston is going after the triumph hammer and tongs. The Ponies worked out last night, plan another drill tomorrow night, and will wind up pre-game condition ing with a practice Friday night.
 One of Thomaston's starting former Manhattan college captain, who. since joining the Thomaston squad two weeks ago, has been one of the team's leading ground gain ing guns. He will be situated at either halfbaek or fullback. Tipper Conley, who with Burke represent Waterbury on the squad, will oc- cupy the center post with the black jersied Thomastonites.
 The Danburians have won games from the East Haven A. C., West Haven Elks, Holy Name A. A. of Stratford, Bristol West Ends, Branford Laurels, Bridgeport Rose buds, Newark Pros, Stamford Pros and two strong soldier elevens of West Point.

YALE JUMPS TO Al CHOICE TO HUMBLE HARVARD Pond Drilling Team for Strong First Period
 Offensive.

New Haven, Conn, Nov 21.-- (UP) was preparing today to employ the same tactics against Harvard as in other games this season and to smash through for a score in the first period.
 Highly optimistic after upsetting Princeton, the Blue first stringers engaged in light offensive and de- fensive drills while the reserve line bore the brunt of the heavy work against an imaginary Harvard eleven. The aerial attack also was fine-combed in anticipation of it's extensive use.
 Yale's strategy this year has been to strive for a score the opening period at all odds and then set- tie down to straight football, for the psychological effect 1t would have on the opposition. Tn spite of the precautions Head Coach Ray mond W. (Ducky) Pond is taking to assure his team of victory, the Blues were rated a 4 to, 1 favorite.

Special Pin Match Arranged For The
 Neighb Boys

 There are strong rumors around to the effect that Bob and Bill will shellack Ernie and Lou by about 50 pins per game and the odds at this time are about 5000 to that Bob and Bill will take the little Schnozzolas over. There are plenty of packer sfor beth teams and the royal rooters no doubt will be on hand to cheer the boys along. Reporters have attempted to inter- view "Wee' Schiavone but he would not give out a statement as yet. He has had his men practicing every afternoon this week and has gone to the expense of hiring Lone- some Lou Piedmonte, Bearcat star, to coach his boys. Happy Tom Cop polo was ordered to hand in his resignation as coach of this outfit beceuse he is having an off year on the drives and talks too much, in fact much more than he can &C., complish. These two a teams have met on fifty-two different occa- sions and the series stands even. The last time these teams met Templeton's Big Bad Wolves won out in the last box when that sen sationaI curve leg-ball star "Wee" Schiavone pulled beautiful two in the last box, thereby giving the Wolves victory by the narrow margin of one pin. Come early fans and avoid the rush and get your misses all tuned up for your favor- ites when they fail to make marks. Get plenty of them ready, because after all what can you expect from Wee, Wee & Go.
