YALE-HARvARD
 CLASH NOV. 21
Game at New Haven; UcOnns Surprise Coast
 Guardl No State Champ
BY UNITED PRESS

The football season in Connecti- cut rapidly neared close today, with Yale meeting Harvard in the final game of the year Saturday, and with small college rOoters still trving yainly to determine which team won the Connecticut champ ionEhip.
 Yale University's rejuyenated eleven, fresh from it's B to 6 victory over Princeton, began preparations for it's final and big game of the year this Saturday against Harvard in the Yale Bowl, and there was great confidence in the Eli camp.
 The team showed up well in the Princeton games, especially in the third quarter when two touchdowns were made. The offense on the ground was clicking, the aerial att tack wasn't too bad. and the defense kept the Tigers well within bounds.
 Harvard has won but two games this year. but that doesn't mean anything when the Crimson goes against Yale. It's anybody's game, Harvard beat Brown over the week end ' to 0.

 The situation among the small colleges in the state. which have concluded their schedules was, to put it mildly, confusing.
 University Of Connecticut beat the U. s. Coast Guard Academy eleven Saturday. I6 to 0, in a sur- prise Earlier in the season, the Coast Guard defeated Wesleyan, ard Wesleyan defeated Connecticut. IL was vicious circle and probably TO Connection; champion will be named this year.
 Connecticut's unexpected victory gave it a seasons record Of six victories and two losses.
 The Coast Guard has a similar record.
 Wesleyan, which beat Trinity to 0 Saturday. has a seasons record of three wins and five defeats.
 Trinity. in a slump, won one game, tied one, and lost five.

The Great Game Of Politics
Republicans Have Better chonee to Give

a single year. AS result, we have
had two crude and defective laws
in two years.
Under. the later one, 1t is ex-
pected 100000 citizens will file
returns, but the collections will fall
so far short Of producing the mini
mum amount needed that another
bill to raise six more billion is al
ready being asked.
Demagoguery Charged.
Even without that, the 1912 law
will require a vast army of new
Treasury employees to administer,
and no one can estimate the num-
ber of uncollectible returns nor
gauge the fiscal confusion. Both
will be large.
Nor are matters improved by the
$4,000 salary limit, conceived by
the CIO, Endorsed by Mrs. Roose-
velt and now, under direction Of
the President, put into operation
through an order from Economic
Director Byrnes. This is as mex
cusable q piece Of demagoguery as
We have been treated to in a long
time. Senator George, chairman
of the Finance Committee, states
that the result will be loss rather
than a. gain in Treasury revenue,
and that it will greatly boost ad-
ministrative costs and general con-
fusion. Certainly 1t will decrease
the power of the limited number
of people to whom 1t applies to
buy War bonds and make chari-
table contributions.
1t is cheap political gesture of
which, with the Nation at war, the
administration should be ashamed.
If it were possible through this
order to achieve good purpose,
there might be some defense for it..
But all it does is further harass q
small group of citizens without any
resultant benefit to the Treasury. It
is half baked, labor-leader scheme,
vaguely aimed at the profit system
and twice rejected by Congress.
It is possible for the Republicans,
with the Byrd group, to use their
increased strength to nullify this
foolish scheme and, by including the
sales tax, early in 1943 enact bill
that will stand until victory and
peace have come. If these are not
the line on which the Republicans
perform, then there will have been
little national nourishment in add
ing to their power.

Cohan's Will Establishes

NEW YORK, Nov. 11.-George M.

NEW YORK, Nov. 11.-Zack and
Nick Zachary, 20-year-old West Vir-

reached a big decision a week ago,
but didn't know how to proceed
from there.
So they asked policeman and as

dred people"-with five other men,
bers of the family to look for jobs.
While exploring Flatbush, they
reached the decision.
Where all can we register for the
Ar,ny?" they asked the policeman.
Il guess" Nick said yesterday at
Evening star., 1942-11-11

Against this Dorothy Thompson
speculation two arguments were
advanced: First, that we did not
have sufficient shipping, and
second, that the coastal defenses
of the Germans were too strong.
Concerning the matter of ship
ping the situation has been clari-
fled. We did have enough ship
ping, and we shall now have
much more, because we have
greatly shortened our communi-
cation lines. We shall no longer
need to sail around the Cape Of
Good Hope to the Near East and
that saves some 10000 miles. BY
the shorter way through the
Mediterranean, now open to us,
we may save some 2,0O0, 900 tons
of shipping for other purposes.
The argument about the
strength of German coastal de-
fenses still holds good. But the
outlook has been changed. For
from now on speculations about
the invasion Of Europe still range
from Norway to the Gulf of Bis
cay, and, additionally, from
Southern France to Italy and the
Balkans. And the Southern
European coastal defenses are
very weak.
So our North African victory
forces Hitler to divert an meal
culable number of troops, along
all the shores of the Mediter-
ranean. He has the choice,
either to weaken his forces as
sembled at the Channel coasts
and in Norway, or to reduce his
armies in Russia, or both.
Up to now the war of nerves
has been restricted to the specu-
lation whether we would attempt
to invade Europe somewhere
along the Atlantic or North Sea
coasts. From now on, we are in
exactly the same position as Hit
Ter was in the first days of the
war, when every one was trying
to guess where he would strike
next.
And in this war of nerves, Mr..
Willkie, consciously or uncon-
sciously, has rendered a service
by further confusing speculations
about a second front, in his state
from Moscow. For Berlin knows
we'll that Moscow wishes US to
