denny in January. 1906. In the Har-
ward game that year Yale pass re-
suited in a 30-yard gain which
reached the Crimson three-yard

Yale victory after the Ellis had

The Gotch- Hackenschmidt match
in Chicago in 1908. After two hours
Hackenschmidt walked out of the
ring, thus relinquishing his world

so well covered with oil that it was
almost the same as trying to grap-
pie with a 'swell-buttered eel.''

caves of the Mosque Of Omar, to
day was reported to have sent out
call to Arab rulers to intervene

Mufti telegraphed to the Arab
head men, urging them to immedi'
ate action to induce the British
government to restore justice" to
Arabs in Palestine.
The Mutt fled to the Mosque
when British officials, intent on
nipping a threatened uprising in
Palestine, took drastic military
action, arreSting many Arab
leaders.
A number Of Arabs were placed
aboard British warshipS for trans
