HARVARD SUPREME AGAIN THIS YEAR
Dartmouth Ranks Second, Princeton Third, With Yale and Pennsy Following. OLD ELI OUT OF IT Regret Is Expressed That Two Leaders Will Not Meet. NEW YORK, Oct. 29. Harvard reigns surpreme in the Eastern section of the football world with Dartmouth second, Princeton third, and Yale and Pennsylvania about tied for fourth place. One of the big regrets of this season is that Harvard and Dartmouth, for the first time in many years, will meet. Just now it looks as if the champion must be chosen from between these two teams ond not from among Princeton and Yale, as in former years. Each new contest in which Harvard figures more forcibly demonstrates the fact that the Crimson squad this year is one of the best fotball aggregations ever gathered together a team that has a stonewall defense and a smashing, dashing offense but no opponent -has been able to stop. Dartmouth Also Favorite. The Dartmouth aggregation, by its 6 to 0 victory over the speedy Princeton 'team, has demonstrated beyond a doubt that it ranks second only to Harvard, and there aro many who believe that the heavy New Hampshire team if sent against the Crimson, would come out a winner. Princeton's defeat Saturday was a crushing blow to its supporters who looked for victory, or at least, a tie ecore. The muddy condition of the field greatly handicapped the tigers who depended very largely on their speed, but it was about as large a handicap to the Dartmouth boys who were unable to use the forward pass, one of their best ground gainers. Some Angry Coaches. The weakness displayed by Yale, Pennsylvania and Cornell Saturday had their sequel in tobasco commands from the coaches to their charges. A half dozen substitutions were threatened on both teams, and new plays and reformatory measures have been ordered. Saturday was a day of surprises and one in which the "dope" was upset and scattered in seventeen directions. Everywhere throughout the east the games were played in quagxnireB but this gave one side as much advantage as the other. Perhaps on a dry field, however, the results might have been different. Next to Princeton's defeat by Dartmouth, the most surprising result was the nothing to nothing Yale and Washington and Jefferson score. The Elis looked for at least 20 to 0 score, and miserable showing made by the Bulldogs has thrown the coaches into dispair. This was the second time this season the heavy Yale outfield was played to a standstill, the little Maine team turning the trick several weeks ago. Indians Sprung Surprise. Carlisle sprang a big surprise by holding Pennsylvania outfit to a 7 to 0 score. Pennsylvania supporters looked for a one-sided victory because of Carlisle's poor showing in its last few games. Cornell took a severe beating at the hands of the University of Pittsburgh crowd, but there is not disgrace in that. The Pittsburgh boys so far have demonstrated that they have a team that might give even Harvard or Dartmouth a mighty tussle. They iave swamped the teams they met their earlier games handily. They defeated Carlisle just when the Indians were going along like blue streaks, and then trimmed Cornell 20 to 7, Saturday. Judged on their record so far this year the Navy team is going to have an easy job beating the Arrmy outfit In their annual game. The Navy has been playing consistent football all season, while the Army has been an in-and-outer, winning most of its games more because luck was on its side than because of superior playing. ASKS POSTPONEMENT OF OLYMPIC GAMES NEW YORK. Oct. 29. Postponement of the Olympic games to be held In Berlin in 1916 for at least one week will be asked of the commission by James E. Sullivan, the American Olympic commissioner. The opening events of the games have been set for July 1, which would be a heavy blow to the American mem bers as many would be compelled to miss part of the games because many schools and colleges of this country will not close in time for the athletes to reach Berlin before the games begin. INTERNATIONAL GOLF TOURNAMENT WANTED LONDOM, Oct. 29 Leading golf enthusiasts in England have begun an agitation for an international golf competition with America and other countries where the game thrives, to be conducted along the general lines of the Davis cup tennis plan. Frequent visits of Americans here and the less frequent trips of British golfers to America, have given rise to the idea. At present there is no regular international golf event. One prominent English club is willing to offer a challenge cup if it can be assured that the players would enter the lists with sufficient enthusiasm. AGGIES AMBITIOUS. LANSING, Mich., Oct. 29. Michigan Agricultural College is seriously thinking of asking for a place on the western conference schedule. Flushed by the victories over Michigan and Wisconsin, the students here are urging a uch a move.
SCOTT MAY BE OUT OF OHIOJTATE GAME Indiana Fullback Likely to Be Replaced in Saturday Contest by Williams.
BLOOM 1NGTON, Ind., Oct. 29 Several of the men who were in the Illinois game were not out last night for practice. It is now an assured fact that Fullback Scott will not be able to play against Ohio State. Williams was used in that, position yesterday. A hard scrimmage was held last evening and the varsity registered four touchdowns in quick succession against the freshmen eleven. A considerable portion of the afternoon was :

Ind., Oct. 29. For the second time this year the varsity line has been crossed in a practice game. The scrubs turned the trick yesterday afternoon. Roach, an instructor in Shortridge, took c harge of the second eleven yesterday, working against the varsity under Coach Thurber, and some hot scrimmage worke resulted. WELCH INVADES EAST English Lightweight Champion Shows Up in Gotham. NEW YORK, Oct. 2!). Freddie Welch, the lightweight champion of England, has arrived from Buffalo with Ed Hagen, the heavyweight champion of the Pacific coast, and Eddie Moy, the Pennsylvania feitherweight. Hagen is going to try his hand at settling the question of supremacy among the white heavies of the east. He has had many bouts in the west and will be ready in two weeks to meet any heavyweight. Welch intends to spend practically the entire winter here. He has many offers for matches and will get into action in a couple of weeks. Roller skating, Coliseum, Thursday night. 2S 3t PLAYERS WANT LARGER COURTS Purchase of a lot which wTill give room for the construction of four additional courts will be given consideration Thursday evening at a meeting of subscribers of the New Paris Roque association. Owing to the great interest in the game, it is necessary to obtain some additional courts in order to care for all the players. Some revision of by-laws and amendmendments to the constitution will also be up for consideration. The meeting will be held in the township house in New Paris. The association has just closed a highly successful season and hopes by getting an early start for next season to make an even better record in the games to be played next year. GRIFFITHS EXPECTS MUCH FROM BOEHLING Joe Boehling, the sensational young twirler of the Washington Senators who made an auspicious debut in fast company last season by winning his first eleven games. Clark Griffith, manager of the Senators, is very proud of the youngster and predicts that he will develop into another Walter Johnson.

I M, C, A, RUNNERS SET NEW RECORDS
Van Allen Runs Fast Yard Race Against Competitors. 100 Indoor athletics at the Y. M. C. A. already have developed a promising athlete. Fred Yan Allen, a member of Class B of the Junior class, gives every indication of developing into a ten second man within a year or so. In running the hundred yesterday aftecnoon Yan Allen slipped and fell when within twenty feet of the tape. He was unable to make the trial again Breaks Record. In the running event for class A, Leo Medearis broke the local record I by making the distance in 12 3-5. Leiter also came in under the mark with the time of 12 4-5. The previous mark was 13 seconds flat made last year by Logan Keelor. Medearis took first place in the shot put, throwing the rubber ball 21 feet, 7 inches. "I am very much pleased with the way the boys are taking hold" said Director Pearse today. "I was rather fearful that there might be lack of interest in the events, but the boys are taking exceptional delight in the contests. There are now forty boys in the intermediate classes and the Seniors have planned a special meeting for Saturday night to increase their membership. I am very much pleased with the outlook." Mr. Pearse added that since so much enthusiasm had been displayed regarding the athletic events, he would arrange a big out of door field meet to be held some time next spring He regards the work that will be done in the gymnasium this winter as a very suitaN" reparation for it. WOULD OUST LYNCH IN BROWN'S FAVOR Herrmann Would Make Louisville Man National League President. WILL PROBABLY WIN Magnates Promised Him Support Then Changed Their Minds. NEW YORK, Oct. 29 Those who relish the sight of a goary and exciting "battle royal" may begin saving their pennies today toward buying a railroad ticket that will bring them to New York for the National League meeting in December. The meeting of the old league magnates in its time has provided some lively bouts but most of them have been fought under the Marquis of Queensberry rules, which are intended to eliminate excessive brutality. But the coming session promises to be one of the liveliest in baseball history, and one which will make the others seem like church socials. From this distance, it looks as if the battlers first of all will try to send down Garry Herrmann, owner of the Cincinnati Reds, for the full count. He sizes up in the pre-battle "dope" as the most likely winner in the battle over the leag eupresidency. Comes Out Into Open. Herrman is out openly in his fight against the re-election of Tom Lynch as president of the league. He long has regarded Lynch as a man unsuited for the position. And he has his own candidate Robert W. Brown, a Louisville sporting editor. A year ago Herrman boomed Brown and threatened a mighty upheaval in National League affairs if he was not elected. Cooler heads in the organization "got to" Herrman, and it is said, soothed him with the promise that if he would withdraw Brown's candidacy in, 1912. they would see to it that Brown was elected without opposition in 1913. And now, according to reports, they who did the promising last year, have forgotten all about it and have decided to vote for Lynch. All of which has angered Herrmann, and he is out for a battle to the finish. He claims that a number of league presidents have assured him that they will vote for Brown, but Garry, mindful of the broken promises of a year ago, isn't counting on putting Brown through without a fight. NOT TO PROSECUTE PROMOTER BURNS CALGARY, Alberta, Oct. 29. It was announced yesterday that the crown would not push the case against Tommy Burns, who promoter of the bout here last May. which resulted in the death of Luther McCarty during a fight with Arthur Pelkv. PROMINENT CITIZENS PAY ATHLETICS HONOR PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 29 Preceded, by the police ban and escorted by a squad of mounted police, members of the world's champion Athletics rode through the streets of the city last night on their way to a banquet given in their honor by prominent citizens of Philadelphia. More than eight hundred were present at the dinner.
QUAKER TEAM NEEDS GOOD PLACE KICKER
I Captain Bogue Perfects Art of Kicking Ball Between Posts. SQUAD GETS DRILL Williams Shifted to Fullback to Bolster Up Earlham Offense. By holding Butler to a tie. 0 to 0, and the fact that Butler tied with DePauw by a 7 to 7 score, the Earlham squad has taken a decided brace and j is expected to finish the schedule with J a chain of victories. The most difficult j part of the schedule is to follow, as i games with DePauw and Wabash are I on the sheet. Last year the Yellow and White squad defeated DePauw and : held the Wabash squad to a low score, but this year's eleven is much weaker than the 1S12 pigskin followers. The Yellow and White squad trotted out o Reid field, none the worse for Saturday's grueling contest with Butler, with the exception of Fullback Williams, who is still limping. Wil liams, however, went into the Butler I contest with a strained ankle. Captain Bogue and a few of the squad practiced drop and place kicks. Coach Reagan realized that a place kicker might have won Butler's contest, although Bogue made a couple of attempts to plant the pigskin between the Butler bars, in the last quarter of play. Bogue a Good Punter. As far as punting is concerned Captain Bogue is considered one of the premier hoisters of the pigskin in the secondary race. His punts will average from thirty-five to forty-five yards at all times in the contests, and at times he has passed the fifty yard mark. With Williams out of the line-up for a few days, Bowen. the Georgetown (111.) half back, is being shifted to the center position on the back field. Thornton and Trueblood are being given work-outs at the halves. Captain Bogue is still retained in the quarter back position, although both Darnell and Hobbs are kept working Ihe pivot position on the scrub squad. This week's program consists of three nights of scrimmage and signal practice. It is expected that the training table will be restored at the latter part of the week. NO MORE FOOTBALL IN TIPTON SCHOOL TIPTON, Ind., Oct. 29. So many high school students have been disabled since the football season started that the faculty has canceled all the remaining games on the schedule. Henceforth the attention of the students will be directed to basketball and baseball. Harold Fritz was the last player to receive injuries, sustaining a broken collar bone In practice. RALSTON UNABLE TO ATTEND GAME INDIANAPOLIS, Oct. 29. Governor Ralston will be unable to accompany the Indiana university team to Columbus, Saturday for the football game with Ohio State university. In a letter to Governor Cox yesterday. Governor Ralston stated that his engagements at home would preclude his presence at the game between the two state universities. WIFE BASEBALL BUG WILKESBARRE, Pa., Oct. 29. Because his wife was a thirty-third degree baseball bug, James Cooper deserted her, according to the story he told in police court yesterday. He declared that she was away from home every time there was a game, and that she talked nothing but baseball, morning, noon and night. The judge told the couple that as the baseball season is now over, they should make an effort to patch up their difficulties. Women Attempt to Form League Bowling May Become Popular Among Fair Sex.

Considerable interest is evinced in the game Saturday between the Catholics and the Army at Went Point, as this is the lirst Indiana team ever to meet the Soldiers, and one of the few teams in the west to go east this year. Armed guards patrol the field during a game, and the military spirit of the Institution prevails even while big sport events are being conducted. Two practice hours every day will be observed for the remainder of the week by the Catholic in preparation for their game with the Army. The men are given their usual workout on the field in the afternoon and are lined up again for signal practice in the gymnasium in the evening. All the Notre Dame players came out of the game with Alma last Saturday unhurt. Coach Harper hopes to have the strongest team of the season In condition for the game with the Soldiers. Notre Dame 'will leave for the east on Thursday, returning the following Monday.
The Day's in Smoke AT LAST. The hottest thing in the stove league talk is that the "Feds" have climbed over the ramparts at Baltimore and have secured a park. The new league although but a year from infancy is growing faster than an elephant's baby. SO SAD. DANCE lures the Butler football men to break training is the startling news that hops before our eyes from Indianapolis and that is assigned for the defeat of the Butler squad. They laughed at the new "8 bells to bed" rule at DePauw but now find that is the best policy. Never mind Butler there are many "almosts" who might have broke through had they not broken training. SOUNDS LIKE WORLD'S SERIES. HEAVY DEMAND FOR SEATS AT ARMY-NAVY GAME reads the head lines. Football seems to follow in the wake of the national game and with much eastern popularity. If this had been a game with the Carlisle Indians we might expect some scalpers at work. SHOCKING! We see from the "edits" that Washington and Jefferson's football eleven sent fifteen Yale men to the hospital for rests ranging from three days to three weeks. Funny that the W. & J.'b could do such a thing when the Harvard crew has never been able to shoot over more than ten at a game. WHAT MADE HIM DO IT? Gov. Ralston must have been wise when he invited his old friend Gov. Dunne, of Illinois, to see the Illini-In-diana game at Indianapolis, last Saturday for he knew that Indiana played at Columbus, O., the very next week. True to his dope, the Indiana execuTO VOTE ON RETURNJTO BIG 9 Students, Alumni and Faculty Will Submit Result to Regents.

"Jimmy" Craig, the sprinter football star of Michigan, is back with the Wolverine squad. Now most any person will stop at a cra(l)g and we wonder what effect Jimmy will have. Jim things for the enemy? SOUNDS LIKE AUTO TAIK. The guide lines say: "A VANDERBILT PLAYER INJURED" Sounds like an auto cup race over the Vanderbilt track but people are so used to those common things now, and It doesn't excite them. James K.Sullivan, the United States Olympic Commissioner, has protested the German committee to set the date of the 1916 Olympic contests one week later than planned. He is of the opinion that the American stars will not be able to get in shape for the contests because of the late closing of the big athletic universities. TOO SHORT. Many a candidate will tell yon that straw votes are no good, especially if he gets the wrong straw. NAUGHTY SCHOOLBOY. ITHICA. N.
