FORDHAM CHANGES FOOTBALL SIGNALS Extra Precautions Taken York ‘Institution For Coming By Game With Villanova. New York, Nov. 23.—The Fordham football squad started the final drive of the season yesterday in preparation for the game with Villanova Thursday. The squad weathered the hard Carlisle Indian game in fine shape and all the regulars were on hand yesterday for a brisk ‘drill, Vhich lasted two hours. Owing ao the fact that the Villa- nova coaches and several of the play ers watched Saturday’s game Coach Vaughn shifted the signals. A cor- don on freshmen who have 'policed the gridiron inclosure during the games, was on hand to keep away from the practice all who could not ghow a right to be there. The team lined up as it faced Car- isle with Captain Dunn in the back tield, Golden at quarter and Hall at | right end. Coach Vaughn had not much adverse comment to make on the playing against the Redskins. The interference, the tackling, the charging of the line, showed mar- velous improvement, Because Villanova possesses a stronger line than Carlisle everal Shifts and spread plays, featuring wide end run,s.were run off in the practice. Fordham was fairly suc- cessful at hammering the Indians’ line, and as a result did not flash many trick runs or passes, but the attack for Villanova will be more versatile. GILMAN OR HARTE LIKELY TO BE CHOSEN Tackle and End Are Chief Rivals for Captaincy of Next Yecar's Crimson Team. Cambridge, Mass., Nov., 23.—Al- though the election of a captain for Harvard’s 1916 football team will not take place for several weeks, the play- ers already are discussing the can- didates and it looks as if the choice will be between Dick Harte and Joo Gilman. JGilman played in 1913 as well as this fall, and while rated in the players list as & member of the class of 1916 he really is a junior and will be elig- ible for the team another season. He has been a remarkably fine player for New | on !} ESDAY, NOVEMBER 23, 1915. THE OLD Harvard and is the only man left who has been a regular player on two of Haughton's teams. Gilman did not plgy in 1914 at all. but came back splendidly this year and was the main strength of Harverd’s rush line against Yale. He weighs 187 pounds and is twenty-three vears old, the same ag: as Ned Mahan. Gilman played foot- ball at Exeter before coming to Har- vard and lives in Honolulu. Dick Harte, the other candidate, is well known as an intercollegiate lawn tennis player and last spring caught | for the Harvard varsity nine. This was his first year on the team, al- though he showed up well as a fresh- man after entering college from Pom- fret school. The twenty-three players eligible to elect the captain for 1916 are said to be evenly divided in their choice between these two leading can- didates. “BAD DAYS FOR SHIRKERS.

Le Puy, Central France, Nov. 14.— German officers living in a historic chateau on the banks of the roman- tic Loire, much as they would live in some castle on the Rhine, some of them with their wives and babies, with ~German orderlies, German cooks, German menus, German war- maps, German orchestras, German games, German drills—these were some of the things making it ap- parent today that France was living up to the complete letter and spirit of its international obligation of look- ing after German prisoners of war The visit to this German officers’ camp was made by The Associated Pre: through the courtesy of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, with two French army officers assigned - from the Ministry of War to assist in showing and explaining all the de- tails of the care given to German of- ficers. Live in Castle. The ancient castle of Roche-Ar- neaud is the temporary home of a hundred or more of these German officers, gathered in from the battle of Champagne and from all along the fighting line, and even from the re- mote German islands of the South Pacific which have been taken by French landing parties. The castle dominates a sweep of thirty miles of valleys, hills and low mountains, much like the picturesque ranges of the Blue Ridge. Entering the court was like pa of the castle ing into some vast Ger- man establishment. with German offi- cers in smart uniforms standing in knots or stepping sharply across the and the circle of surrounding windows crowded with smiling and good-natured faces of many other German officers. At the gate stood a broad-shouldered Saxon officer with an artist’s eascl and canvas be- fore him, on which he was laying on the color of these dominating tints of the Loire Valley and mountains. Photographs of all the imprisoned officers occupied the whole side of a wall in the reception-room as one entered the place. Fach photograph bore the name and regiment of the officer. The names were typically German—Major Schneider, Major von Erdt, Capt. Reis, Capt. Kasl. They were fine looking, big framed men each in full tniform, with cap jaunt- ilv pushed hack. And at the foot of the photographs were two wh stood out from among these fighte two faces of young German wom- en, and beside them two tiny ba- bies—war babies, horn on French soil, of German parents.

There was not a sign of discontent about them, on the contrary they were a picture of a well conditioned set of men, living a life of ease and even clegance. Their uniforms were splc and span; they were well turned out and well tailored, their coats fitting faultles: and their trousers tightly over their big legs; they were well shaved, well fed, well conditioned as though they had recently stepped out of some military club on the Wil- Telmstrasse. There was a slight air of suspicion about the Germans as the French officers entered with the party. They raised their heads proudly and strutted away in pairs and groups, until soon all of them were lost in taste drew ' Suffered Twer;ry-une Years-- an_aMuund Relief Having suffered for twenty-one years with a pain in my side, I final- ly have found relief in Dr, Kilmer's Injections of morphine I became so sick that I had to undergo a surgical operation in ‘When the same pain came back one day I was so sick that I gave up hopes of living.

The latter, too, were most careful not to permit the visitors to intrude up- on the privacy of the German pri: oners by asking them personal que: tions, taking pictures of them or treating them as though they were an exhibit. It was this the German officers seemed to fear, but the scrupulous care of the French offi- cers overcame any such fears. Little Restraint, A strong wall, five feet high, topped by four strands of barbed wire a foot apart, circled the outer edge of the castle gardens, “That is the only restraint,” said ‘the officer. ‘“There are no bars or Lolts for the officers are on their parole of honor and these strands of wire are little more than a formality." In the living quarters of the castle the German officer: through their customary avocations. The rooms were large and light, a may be expected in a castle of this | proportion, with the windows over- | looking gardens and valleys. The names of the occupants were on each door. On one, for example, were the names: Captain Frelheer, Captain Gruner. As the French commandant knocked, the door was thrown open and the German captains staod like statues at military salute. One of them, a big, yellow bearded man; the other with a monocle in his eye looked the part of a young nobleman, ‘They were smoking cigarettes and a Lox of clgars was open on the table. One of them was interested in a por- trait he was painting. The library shelves showed collections of German classics.

His wound was slight and he was now convalescing with every comfort about him. On his bed was carelessly thrown a roll of fine blue-prints and drawings such as those madc by army engineers. When he saw the visitors glancing at these plans he shook his head and smiled. No, they are not war plans,” said he. “I am the burgomaster of Metz, and those are some of the plans for municipal improvements which were vnder my control. 1 continue to study them and they interest me sreatly.” Germans Artistic, Along the long corridors were many other rooms, each with a group of five or more officers under command of a ranking officer as chief, The walls were covered with drawings, portraits and landscsapes showing the artistic bent of the officers. Some of them had unique collections. One had « large collection of curious meer- schaum pipes: another was fond of medallions and enamels and had a considerable collection. The German officers continue to keep up their war maps, showing their own idea of the German sweep and visitors were grouped together. " ’in Russia, Serbia and elsewhere, and with no restraint from the French The maps were done with precision. Small flags showed the It was evident that German fervor was still dominant as the colored pins and flags showed the the various theaters of war, “But that is a mistake,” said the officer commandant, noticing a Ger- man war flag pinned far down into Serbia beyond the actual point of German advance. Then he laughed and passed along, making no change in the pins and flags and remarking: “It’s their own affair: Let them have it that way if it suits them.” Champagne a Blow, Some of the officers just brought in from the battle line at Champagne, where 24,000 German prisoners were Cne of these young from Champagne German stood at officers military Then, as CLampagne was mentioned, his salute gradually faded away, his arm re- ed to his side and he took on a | sickly smile at the visitors, as much | as to say: “Yes, they rather got the best of us | that time.” Now the party turned to the rooms where the wives and bables of the German officers were quartered. Tt was on the first floor of a substantial building on the court, up one flight of arrow stairs. In the first room ood a typical young German woman, buxom and good looking, with flaxen hair done up in a coil. The furnish- | ings were simple but good, and a large window threw a flood of sunshine on to a little cradle in which the baby was lying. “It's nice you have such and sunshine for the baby,” itor. fresh air ' said the replied the German wife dubiously, “but the room is very smal] | and the soldiers make much noise un- derneath at night.” That was her only comment, but so far as could be seen there was every evidence of creature comfort naturally to be expected under such conditions, ‘Women Seek Release. In the next room the German wife had her door firmly closed and it took | a sharp knock on the door, and a word of command in German, to bring a slow and reluctant opening. Then this young German matron appeared, with | the baby in the background under an- | other flood of sunlight, but with her | good-looking face full of fire and re- sentment at the intrusion. She said nothing and the party did not press inquiries. As the party withdrew to the great court of the castle, the two German women left together in their rooms | evidently held a council of war.
