The play was sluggish, redeeming feature being av's Individual brilliancy ted in some degree » Nuvy contest, makin ing to do with “fixing the series,” but on the other hand “had done every- thing he could to prevent the fixing and has completely vindicated him- self.” One significant ipcident of the day was an accidental meeting between President Johnson of the American league and Alfred Austrian, attorney for Charles A. Comiskey, owner of the White Sox, in the offices of Chief Justice MeDonald For nearly an hour Messrs. John- son and Austrian were in close con- ference. As a result of this a bet- ter understanding of the situation is oxpected to eventuate between the antagonistic factions on the plan to reorgunize baseball, but that the ten- tative draft, generally ascribed to Mr. Austrian, would need coplous revision before it would be acceptable to the other flve American league club own- ors and also to the minor leagues, sev- eral of whose presidents alr y have expressed their disapproval of any arrangement which gave the minors no volce whatever in the formation of the new governing body. The disclosures before the grand jury yesterday are expected to put an entirely different face on the prop- osition and there is no doubt of the action to be taken by the “loyal” five American league club owners at their conference here later in the week Prospects of an ultimate amicable arrangement were brightened by the announcement of President Johnson, that he expected to attend the meet- ing of the Minor League association iIn Kansas City on Nov. 9, at which the Lasker-Austrian plan will be dis- cussed. OLD ELI STARS ASSIST Bigelow and Paige Visit Bowl and Give Attention'to Yale Dine—Var- sity Displays Snap. New Haven, Oct. 27 —This was a day of rejoicing at Yale, for nearly all of the members of the Yale var- ity football team reported at 'bowl for practice. Several of them | were in the forty minute scrimmage. Kempton ran the team at quarter- back most of the time and was suc- ceeded for a few minutes by Dan Kelly, Kempton then going to left half. Murphy, who was hurt in the West Virginia game, reported in a suit and did some placement kicking and a little drop kicking. Several old players who were on the teams of 1906 and 1907, of which Tad Jones was quarterback, were out helping with the coaching, among them be- ing Capt. Lucius H. Bigelow and Ray Paige. Mackay replaced Munger at tackle and Munger played awhile at end. Mackay al<o played a part of the time on the other side of the line and O'Brien went in at left tackle. Eagan and Sheviin each got in for a few minutes at end. Crosky and Coch- rane were in the backfield at one | time, replacing Knapp and Jordan. The varsity worked with consider- able soap, but at no time used for- ward passing. Kempton failed in a drop kick attempt from the 30-yard line. Knapp made two touchdowns for the varsity as a result of some brilliant open field running. Aldrich, Callahan, Acosta, French and Mur- phy all had light work Tom Knapp, whose work was the feature of the practice is a sophomore in Sheff. and comes from Roland, Md.

Hanover, N. H., Oct. 27.—After one day of rest Coach Spears sent the Dartmouth 'squad through a long drill yesterday, taking up many new formations and sending second team members with a few regulars into a scrimmage. The men worked better for their day's respite, although the backs and emed unable handle the majority of the forward passes used in serimmage. The coach- ing staff is emphasizing this part of the game, as the Green has shown a continued weakness in the overhead game throughout the season HOYLE IS CHOSEN. Ithaca, N.

This is an exceptionally fine mark for female performers on the lanes. League contests last night at Rogers’ alleys were between teams in the New Britain Machine company league, and the South End bowlers had another fling at the “‘ducks”. Frisk, one of the best in this city on the strips, is the owner of a new silk scarf presented by the manage- ment of the Casino alleys for high score during the week. Ed.
