All the men who were on hand yes- terday showed some sign of the pow= erful Georgetown attack. Cantwell had a decided limp from a twisted ankle, Golden’s knee was out of com- mission, both Conklin and Corriden were badly bruised, Dave Dunn battered up, while T nor, diminutive centre, who was the only Fordham man to put up a favorable opposition to the heavier Georgetown rush line, looked as if he had been introduced to the wrong side of & steam roller.

Local Man In Group of Landed for Rioting: New Haven, Conn.,, Nov. 4.—In celebrating the arrival of Tom Shev- lin as football coach, Yale under- graduates Tuesday night completely blocked Elm street, pulled down trol- ley poles, stopped cars, outmanoeuvr- ed the police, and roughed Mayor Rice. Finally a riot call, bringing police reinforcements, routed the un- ,{dergr-’Ldualcs. who scattered, leaving \t\\‘(l of their number in the hands of the police and one in Mayor Rice's grip. The Mayor, whose shins were barked by the handling he recetved limped into the Police Court this morning and told Judge George Hall to treat the collegians just as if they were New Haven boys. The student whom the Mayor ar- rested proved to be Thomas Louis Stix of Cincinnati, a freshman. The Mayor testified that Stix was annoy- ing three women who were in an automobile which was marooned in the crowd of undergraduates which clogged Elm street. Stix said that { he was only trying to crank the auto- mobile for the women so that they could escape from the crowd. Judge Hall fined him $5. Earl Narramore of Bridgeport and Marshall House of New Britain, Conn., were the other students ar- rested. They were released for lack of evidence. Dean Jones was in the court room during the trial and promised to investigate the cas Students TAST GAME HERE SUNDAY. All roads will lead to Traut's park, Sunday when the strong Tiger-Cub team of Meriden will line up against the Pawnees in what should prove to be one of the best games of the sea- son.

But he can check the skidding quickly enough by installing the one-man rule—with that one man given full control. Theory vs. Practice. At Yale the captain is at least able to divide authority, if not to hold the whip hand. In theory this may be a fine little system. The main drawback comes when the scores are being pested. What chance has a Ketcham or a Talbot or an Alex Wilson pitted against a Haughton? The answer for the last three yvears is 71 points for Harvard and 5 points for Yale. How much more conclusive does it have to be? No, Clarice, “The Blue Paradise” isn’t having its run at New Haven, s a New York production. “Columbia playing aggressive foot- ball.” Or, as Old Frank Adams would say, “Hail, Columbia, scrappy band.” Two Toes vs. One. “In spite of what you have seen at Princeton,” writes Crimson ‘09, “T'd like to set up a small wager that Fddie Mahan out drop kicks Tibbott and out punts Driggs, proving that one toe of the Mahan type is better than two of the Princeton variety.” Mahan may out drop kick Tibbott and again he may not. For the Tiger is a star performer with the major toe. { We doubt that he will out kick Driggs. Certainly not if the Tiger thumps the ball as he did against Dartmouth, where his punting was phenomenal for distance and accuracy. Driggs has the ability to kick with any punter we have seen in quite a while. Whether, against the test, he will put something over on Mahan, is another matter. For Mahan, like Brickley, as a rule is at his best under heayy fire. The Har- vard star has a wonderful tempera- ment for play. He is as cold always as a segment of cucumber on ice, and as Harvard now figures Princeton to be the hardest opponent left, Mahan will work at full speed in this game.
