COM MINES ARE FACING SHUTDOWN Late Arrival of Winter Af-fects-Indiana and the Illinois Mines. (United Press Service) Chicago, Nov. 24—(Special to Daily Democrat) —Every coal mine in the bituminous fields of Illinois and Indiana face either complete or partial shutdown because ot the late arrival of winter to the middlewest, F. tC. Honnald, statistician for the Bituminous Operators' association, announce ed here today. ‘More mines have been closed in Illinois during the hist six months than at any previous period in the history of mining in this state,” Honnald declared. • ‘‘Every day scores of cars are loaded at the mines still operating and then left to stand on sidings and switch tracks.” Extreme laqk of demand is responsible for the condition, Honnald said, pointing to the fact that consumption was far under the average for this season due to continued warm weather over most sections of the middlewest. "It means a slump ot about thirty per cent in production in both the Illinois and Indiana fields,” he said. ‘‘At least 72 mines in Illinois with a potential daily capacity of 100,000 tons, have been closed or abandoned” tons and 69 in Indiana with 50,000 Honnald also stated that of the mines still operating at least threefourths of them were running on a forty per cent of normal basis. o— G.

Harvard To Fight Against Yale Eleven (By Henry L. Farrell) (U. P. Staff Correspondent) Boston, Nov. 24. —Futth in the logic behind the ring proverb that "a game guy Is as good as any Jam,” was the only thing that sustained Harvard hopes as the Yale football aguad piled into town today for the last battle of the Big Three across the river. Here In Boston, in proximity to the ' heart of Harvard, confidence in the Harvard varsity eleven had wavered 1 to the point where the only hope expressed was: Harvard will fight and a fighting team always has a chance." 1 "For a big city, Boston takes Its Harvard-Yale game seriously. Shop , windows on the busy streets were fill- ! ed with blue and crimson banners and conversation everywhere was confined to the game. \ Most unusual was the trend of talk i which was found revolving around disI cushion of Harvard's chances to win. For years it has been a question of . how badly Yale would be beaten. o Ralston For Constitution i Indianapolis, Nov. 24. —“it is an in- ! Stilt.” This was the answer of Samuel M.
