CRIMSON WINS GREAT VICTORY AT PRINCETON Karl Pfaffman Stands Out Today as Hero At Harvard. By HENRY L. FARREL PRINCETON, N. J., Nov. 10,—One mile for every inch of his six feet three, Kar] Pfaffman, a bean pole sub- stitute, sat tonight in the Harvard clouds. Pfaftman, conspicuous in Harvard football only because of his extreme height, rose to a place in keeping with his a’titude when he gave the Crimson this afternoon its first vic: tory over Princeton since the war. The score was: Harvard 5; Prince. ton 0, but it was the boot hanging from the long leg of Pfaffman that Kicked the life out of a gasping Tiger in the third period. Through the whole first period and part of the second, when Har vard was fighting for Ife without getting any place, Pfaffman sat humped over on the Crimson bench towering above his comrades of the scrubs, even with his stooped back. Late in the second period, Harvard spurted and made its first advance {nto Princeton territory. With the bill on the thirty-yard line, Pfaff- man was shaken out of his blanket and rushed tn to kick, He strutted onto the field, look. ing Uke “Slippery Slim." He drove dangling leg against the ball an?’ it went forty yards just wide of the goal posts and he had falled.

STANFORD GRID ELEVEN HANGS UP VICTORY IN BATTLE WITH OREGON eleven, 14 to 3, here this afternoon. Captain Harold Chapman saved his Oregon tearm mates from a shut- out when he booted a beautiful place kick from a difficult angle late in the fourth quarter. Oregon made more first downs from scrimmage and from forward passes than Coach Andy Kerr's out- fit, but the “breaks” were too much for them to overcome. ‘Wheat carried the ball for a five yard gain through left tackle, with the ball on Oregon's 10-yard line. then made two yards more and Nevers went over, after breaking through the same hole, for Stan- ford’s first touchdown. Campbel! converted and made the score: Stan- Oregon, 0. Starting the second half Chapman received the kickoff on Oregon's five yard line. He returned 28 yards and Stanford was penalized on the f'rst down, the ball being put in play on Oregon 38-yard line. Sax failed to gain on a left end run Oregon was penalized 15 yards, the ball going to Oregon’ yard line. Chapman gained a yard and when Latham’s punt was blocked, Shipke. unassisted, raced arcoss the Oregon Zoal line for a touchdown. Camp- bell again converted. Score: Stan- ford 14; Oregon, 0. Oregon's only score came in the closing minutes of the last period. A series of forward passes enabled Oregon to take the ball to Stanford's 26-yard line. Chapman stepped back and made a place kick from the yard line, the ball, kicked from an angie, passing between the uprights with plenty of room to spare. Final score: Stanford 14; Oregon 3. NO UPSETS ON COAST GRIDIRON Football Results Hold Few Surprises for - Fans, Report. SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 10.—Fate sprang no surprisus in the best foot- ball circles dn the Pacific coast to- day. California beat University of Bouthern California 13 to 7 at Los Angeles but the result was expected. The Bears went into the game a slight favorite over the Trojans and the score justifieG the margin of betting, which was close to even money. Stanford untfyersity bested Oregon at Portland by the score of 14 to 3. Stanford was a heavy favorite and her supporters were disappointed that she did not roll up a bigger score. Washington beat Montana decis- ively, 26 to 14 at Seattle. which the huskies were expected to do, The re sult did not particularly strengthen Wnshington's claim to being the second best team on the coast nor did tt hurt it any. ‘The one surprise was I(nho's vic- tory over Oregon Agricultural col- lege. The majority of observers con- ceded the game to the Aggies but Idaho played the better football and scored a lone touchdown. The final score was Idaho 7, O. A. C. 0. A surprise of a more minor char- ‘acter resulted from the Stanford university - California university freshman acrap at Stanford. Call- fornia was regarded as the favorite yet Stanford was on the long end of a 12 to 0 score. Nevada continued its good work by beating Fresno college 46 to 3. —_—__ Military Forces Crushed © © George Smythe, Army quarterback, fs shown here making one of his spectacular gains during the Army- Yale game at New Haven, Despite Smythe's good work, Army lost $1-10, — |GHURGHES TAKE LEAD IN FATHER AND SONWEEK OBSERVANCE HERE Banquets to Be Served by Methodists, Presby- terians, Christians and Baptists; Luncheon Clubs Will Also Entertain Sons.

The Trojans crossed the goal tine in the last minute of the final per lod, scoring on California for the first time this year and upsetting Andy Smith’s hopes for another seasun without a tally against his layers. ‘With only five minutes to play and the ball on U. 8. C's. 20-yard lina, fans were pouring toward the exits, believing the contest as well as ended. Newman, the Trojan's Indian halfback, ill with tonsilitis, was rushed into the game. Two passes, Newman to Dolty, and Newman to Dorsey, carried the bal! to the Bears’ 10-yard line, and. line bucks smashed it to within taro feet of the Bear goal fine. A quar terback sneak by Dolley put it over. California’s scores came in the second and fourth periods.

An- the Tarantula Found Is Removed From Bunch of Bananas ‘With a howl and a leap the dis- mayed clerk beat it away from the bunch of bananas! There is no reliable way of telling whether or not the first part of the story should start out that way. Anyhow, when an in- spection was made today of a large inviting cluster of the fruit that has not gone unsung (to say the least) at the Logan and La- Clare Grocery store on East A street, a chilly end ugly tarantula was uncovered. Therefore, in order to have acted human, who- ever was doing the inspecting must certainly have given but one terrified glance at his find and forthwith bounded to safety. Though capable of ferocity in the clime where the United Fruit steamers take on their cargoes of tropical produce, this “perticler” tarantula was harmless when he reached Casper for he was all wrapped around himself in a des- Pperate effort to keep warm, Advantage was taken of his “Sam-MoGee-of Tennessee” con- dition, and he was promptly cap- tured and calaboosed in a large glass jar. terror of the tropics has now had time to thaw out in the transparent prison in which he is displayed at the Logan and LaClare store. ponent samas chee dices MAH JONGG NOT CHINESE LOS ANGELES (United Press)— Mah jongg. so-called ‘Chine: game which has become a craze in the United States, Canada and Eng- land, is no more'Chinese than chop suey, declared J.

By Novem! 20th the regiment and its sister unit, the for the march, Being motorized, the brigade could cover more ground In one day than the marching infantry could cover in ten days, and the Third Army went into Germany in combat for- mation and prepared for whatever might present itself. Infantry was deployed along the march, and the heavy guns would move up one days march, and then billet for a few days awaiting the infantry to move ahead and furnish the necessary protection for the ‘pets’ of the army as the G. P, F. guns of the westerners were affectionately termed, It was Di cember 10 when the regiment cro: sed the Moselle river from Luxem- burg into Germany proper, and until January 1, the regiment moved slowly from town to town. On Jan- uary 1, 1919, starting the new year, the regiment crossed the Rhine, and accomplished what was fn the heart of.every American soldier when he entered the service, that thrill of taking over the Rhine river as conquerers. Along the east bank facing Coblenz, was the famous Fort Ehrenbrietstein, which on this cold snappy clear New Years, as the regiment crossed the famous river, flew the American flag. January first started the actual occupation duties. .The regiment was assigned a position on the outer edge of the fifteen kilometer area to be occupied under the armistice terms, and billets were arranged in the pottery manufacturing town of Hoehr, where guns were parked, kitchens built, men assigned one or two to a German home, and the reg: iment “dug in" for winter’s comfort. One of the problems confronting the American commander aside from the task of showing Gexmany that American soldiers could fight, and still be gente conquers, was the job of amusing the American troops, The westerners were not soldiers by profession, but citizens of peace who) had volunteered for vice when needed, and when thrown into ba‘ tle line had functioned as they had been expected to function. When it came to the #&mdrum job of occupy- ing a conquered nation as fruits of the battle field victories, the west- erners did not enjoy the work. Every possible phase of American| clty life that could be reproduced for the westerners was reproduced. Schools were established, post office arranged, telephonic communication from all parts of the town put in by the army communication details, theaters taken over and shows ar- ranged, stores established by various units of the regiment, and finally a newspaper came into being as rep- resenting the brigade, and to give the westerners just one more phase of American home life. The news- paper, of which the writer was in charge, was the “Long Range Sn! ner, d as far as can be ascer- tained the first newspaper printed in the Eng’ish language in the Ger- man Empire following the outbreak of the world war some five years ear- ler. The plant of the Coblenzer Volkzletung was taken over for the publication. A pre“it of sorne $1500 was the result of the publishing en- deavors of the brigade, but it might be borne in mind that labor was costing not a thing, the editors, and reporters, sporting authorities and make up men, printers and proof- readers, all going to make a news paper possible were found among the regimental personnel. The money profit from that weekly paper, was by special order of the War Department permittted to be added to the fund raised by a sub- scription of $2 a book for the his- tory, and permitting the publishing of @ larger and better volume than the $2 each wou'd have done. The German people took kindly to the Americans, and the Americans to the German people, and it was with real grief that the Americans, on receiving orders May 19th, 1919 ordering them to turn in thelr guns, and prepare for home going, advised their German housewives that they were leaving for home, Many a tear was publicly shed by the German people as the regiment five days later marched out of Hoehr to en- train for Saint Nazaire, France, the port of embarkation. June 2nd found the regiment, checked and re- checked, bathed and reun!formed paid off, and loaded comfortably on the transport Peerless, and June 15 the regiment, to the tune of several bands and an appreciative New York welcome, debarked for Camp Mills thi inal paper work preparatory of the entraining for Ft. D. A. Russell! in Cheyenne for mustering out. The war department at the request of the cities of Cheyenne, Denver, Ft. Colling and Colorado Springs, ordered the regiment to parade in each of these places, and the wel. come from the two western states sponsoring the fighting regiment of “Powder River" spirit was an event- fulone. By July 4, two years from mustering In, every man was out of the service, and in his home town. starting again to pick up the broken threads of civilian existence, and to wear anew the cloth of citizenship and peaceful pursuits. So ended the activities of what was probably the most famous and best known regiment of the A. E. PF. Colonel Sinclair, coming back at the head of his regiment, was wearing the eagles of a full colonelcy, an appreciation of the war départment for his work so well done. Five years have elapsed this morning since this body of westerners fired their last shot in the war for right, and it is with a quickening of the heart that November 11th, at 11 o'clock, 1918 is recalled.
