In a furi- ous drive of 20 miies, in every mo- ment of which he was closely pressed, he set the new mark of 16.42.76, This js 11.04 seconds better than Oldfield’s record at Indianapolis. George Robertson at last was able to enter a race and finish it. Yesterday and today he started in several races ‘but never lasted more than a lap or tws He spent his time searching for some elusive defect in his machine, which seemed to keep in hiding dur- ing practice only to.bob up as s00 as the race was on. The big blonde driver, smiling as he had smiled all through his ill luck, withdrew from the twenty-mile handi- cap at the end of the first mile, but ame back grinning and faced the wire in the ten-mile handicap, which he won in a hard drive over Aiken and Harding, the latter in an Apperson, in 074771, . He promptly repeated this perform- ance in the ten sile free for all hand- icap, although his time was slower, 08.39.8. ( Disbrow in his Ranier, won the 20- mile handicap in the elapsed time \of 17.36.15, or .53.39 slower than Aiken's pace in the stock races for that dis- tance. TIGER BACKS POOR AT CATCHING PUNTS, Hot Weather Prac ce for Princeton at Farmington. F¥armington, Conn, Nov. 11.—The exceeding warm weather of today Jed the Princeton coaches to cut short the practice on the temporary gridiron laid out on the golf links of the Country club. The squad was divided into two elevens and a long signal drill gone through with, followed by the break- ing through and blocking of kiocks; tackling was eliminated, so as to pre- clude any chance of injury. After the lineup the backs were given an ex- tended practice in catching punts, but with the exception of Cunningham made rather a poor showing. Preceding the afternoon practice the squad took a cross country walk and had a chalk talk on formations and plays. SAVING HARVARD'S BEST Second String Backs Only Against Dartmouth. Cambridge, Mass., ov. 11,.—Unsea- sonable heat caused a curtailment of practice by the Harvard 'varsity foot- ball team today. No heavy work was attempted. [Formations, by the second team such as Dartmouth may use on Saturday wete opposed without tack- ling. Much attention was given to the intercepting of forward passes and on- side_kicks, believed to be a factor in Aiken Drives Car in 16.42.76 at Atlanta—Yale, Prin and Harvard Have Light Practice—Academy the Dartmouth offense. 1 4 best team wiil not meet Dartmout Saturday., Minot and P.

New Haven, Conn., Nov. 11.—As the time for the Yale-Princeton e draws near rumors are rife of the in- ability of this or that player to get into the game Saturday, but they all seem to emenate from the usual hard luck stories that always precede a big game. 'om Farmington, where the Princeton team is staying, come re- ports of the great things expected of Cunningham in the drop kicking line and the optimistic feeling of the team in general. On the other hand, while the Yale supporters are confident of a victory, there seems to be an under- current of feeling that while Yale has great strength it is of an individual kind and that the team strength is in a way an unknown quantity, the games during the season not having been of a nature to, force Yale to show its full hand. The first betting on the game was in evidence today, but Yale seems to be almost a prohibitive favorite. Yost Feels Confidence in Michigan. Philadelphia, Nov. 11.—The Univer- sity of Pennsylvania football squad left the ciy today just as the Univer- sity of Michigan eleven reached here for the annual game between these two elevens Saturday. The -Pennsylvania team and_ substitutes went to The Pines at Winslow Junction, N. J, 25 | miles from Philadelphia, to put on the | kicks the gates were opened to a thou- finishing touches of practice, and will remain there until the morning of the game. The Michigan eleven, on the other hand, will stay at Wayne, one of the city’s suburbs, wuntil Saturday morning: The Michigan team did not get in until 6 o'clock. Coach Yost was not willing to make any predictions con- ceining the game, but expressed full confidence in the ability of his eleven. Cornell Developing More Speed. Ithaca, N. Y., Nov. 11.—The Cornell football coaches decided today to have no more scrimmages this week. In- stead they will make an effort to de- velop speed against the resourceful Chicago eleven by running signal for- mations without an opposition line. Captain Tydeman, Quarterback Ba- ker and“Left End Hurlbutt will prob- ably be replaced by Robb, Owen and Teagle. respectively, as the latter all showed up well today. Chicago Has Tricks for Cornell. The total number of tricks Chicago university is supposed to have is 60. Halt in Speculative Activity an Inevi- table Consequence. New York, Nov. 11.—The money position was the dominant influence on the stock speculation again today and the topic of principal interest. The re- tention of the five per cent, Bank of England rate was accepted with satis- faction, but it had been anticipated and as a result discounted. The influ- ence on prices of stocks therefore was short lived. The building up of the bank's proportion of reserve to above the fifty per cent. line demonstrated ‘the efficacy of the measures to that end which have been in force. There were fresh withdrawals of gold for South America, and a violent drop of two centimes in the sterling exchange rate at Paris indicated the waning power of one influence in the recu- peration. This sign of the narrewing of the point of ingress to the Paris money market added to the effect of the tightening money situation in New York, as depriving the speculation con- tingent of hopes of recourse to other sources to replace the credits which are being withdrawn in New York. The week’s éxport of gold from New York, the absorption of cash by the sub- treasury operatigns and a renewal of requisitions on New York from in- terior points for currency have de- pleted the slender surplus reserve of the clearing house banks to a point which is forcing them to reduce their loan account in an attempt to avoid | the exhibit of a deficit in the weekly | bank statement to be published on | Saturday. When the money rate be- gan to rise in New York in response to the first demands of the interior for crop moving currency, interior banks madé loans in New York on a large scale on their own account to take advantage of the higher interest rate. The effect of -this was to eve the requirements upon the New York banks and to form a large factor in the enormous loan contraction effected in New York during that period. Now, in connection with the further call for cash from the interior, there has been some scaling down of loans which had been placed directly for account of the interior banks in the New York mar- ket. The clearing house banks, in the depleted conditiol of their reserves, are not in-position to take over these loans. The conrse of forpeign money markets also,throws obstacles in the way. of would-bhe horrowers from New York. The halt®in speculative activity and the dribbling of Hquidation sueh as came into the stock market today seem an inevitable consequence of these conditions. The unpromising outlook thus implied for capital flota- tions has a part in depressing the tone ‘of the speculation. The reception ten- dered to new stock issues sufficiently proves the distaste of the investment appetite for these offérings. The spe- cial heaviness of Union Pacific in the day’s market was partly due to dis- appointment over the retention of the present dividend rate in the Southern Pacific distribution. Holders of South- ern Pacific preferred stock who con- | verted their seven per cent. bonds into the common stock when it was called for retirement have hoped for an in- crease in ,the Southern Pacific com- mon stock dividend from the six to the seven per cent. rate. The two Hill stocks were under specidl pressure as well, with the query suggested whether thegsettlement of a'large estate was in- volved in the movement.

New Haven, Conn., Nov. 11.—Many of the old Yale football stars gathered on the field this afternoon and gave of their knowledge to the ’'varsity men preparing for Saturday's game with Princeton. Frank Hinkey devoted his attention to the ends, Vaughan and Kilpatrick, who will start in the game. Philbin devoted ‘his time to the prac- ticing of drop kicks and kicks from placement, while Murphy tried onside kicks. .Captain Coy walked with a no- ticeable limp, but the coaches said there was nothing the matter other than a slight stiffness of the muscles.

Visiting Team Hopes to Defeat N. F. A. Today. This afterncon on the Academy campus the Norwich public’ will have a chance to take a look at the Acad- emy football team in a game that is bound to be well played and full of interest. A team from Storrs will be here to line up against Captain Galli- van's men and will be right on the job to put a smear on the Academy record of winning games. Three players on the Storrs, eleven are well known t the home crowd—Skelly, Stockwell and Nason—so that there will be added interest in seeing what these local fel- lows will do against the home eleven, Undér the instructions of Coach Bunnell, the Academy has developed a finished team work game, with all the best of the new football at their fiu- gers’ ends, ‘while Captain Gallivan, Halfback Noyes, Quarterback Hen, and Center Richards, all individual stars, can be depended upon to shoot off the real fireworks. The following will be the lineups: Academy—@Gallivan _(captain) le, Swan It, Walsh 1g, Ricketts c, Isbister rg, Lawson rt, Gebrath re, Hendrick q‘l;.

Dudley Dean, Harvard quarterback in 1890, writing in_a Boston paper, sums up the Yale-Harvard football situation as follows: Yale today certainly has the call on any cold-blooded analysis, yet 1 can't imagine a slaughter as in 1900. The year 1900 was the ‘“Gordon Brown year,” if T recall. Yale's eleven th fall may be “the team of the century.” but in the vernacular of the day it will have to go some. o To which the most fervent Yale par- tisan will heartily assent. Laure| Hill Lineup.

Memphis, Tenn., Nov. 11.—The ex- tension of the Jife of the National As- sociation of Professional Baseball Clibs until September 6, 1921, and the selection of Chicago as the next meet- ing place were the principal features of the closing session of the annual meeting of the association here today. The national board of arbitration will probably remain here until Saturda disposing of the large number of cases on its calendar. The National association made one or two other changes in its eonstitu- tion concerning the signing of con- tracts, the promotion of welfare of th players and the punishment to be vis- ited on those who fail to live up t their contracts or violate their reserve clauses.

It will be the east vs. the west Sat- urday. Pennsylvania plays Michigan and Cornell vies with Chicago. Th2 only position In-doubt at Yale is fullback. With Daly, Murphy and Savage to select from it will not be weak. Walier Eckersall, the once famous Chicago quarterback, says that Aller- dice, the Michigar captain, is the best kicker in the west. The game at Princeton Saturday did more than anything eise this season-to show the readjustment of the relative value of a goal from the field and a touchdown. The aggregate weight of the Yale team as it is picked to meet Princeton and Harvard will be 2,056 pounds, ac- cordirg to the official statements, an average of 186 10-11 pounds per man. The tickets allotted Dartmouth for the Harvard game have been over- subscribed for, and the Hanover man- agement has asked for more. At Jast accounts Harvard itself had more ap- plications than it can fill. Corbett doubtless will be in_physical condition to play against Yale, but much-will depend on whether he can do enough work before the game to get back his speed as well as the farm he was showing before he was hurt. Since points, Instead of touchdowns, goals from touchdowns and goals from the fleld have counted to designate scores of games, the bigzest score in a game, between two Ieading college teams has been ‘that of Princeton vs. the University of Pennsylvania in 1887, 95-0, in favor of the former. The list announced for officials at the Yale-Harvard game is as follow. Referee, W. S. Langford, Trinity; /. H. Edwards, Princeton E. K. Hall, Dartmout linesman, J. B. Pendleton, Fowdoin. Substantially the list agreed upon is that which Harvard submitted to the Yale officials for consideration. Yes, she was there on Saturday— the woman in the sealskin coat. He —of course—yas with her, wearing an ulster of muskrat skins. She asked the same question: “What were the lin for sacross the field?” He replied: “To show the five yard gains; a team must make five vards to retaig the ball.” These peaple will throng the stadium on Nov. 20. And on that day the fellow who saw all the plays on Saturday, knew every man and every- one who entered into them, and car- ried home the game in his mind as a music lover does a strain of music after going to the opera—this fellow will not be able to get a ticket for love or money for the Yale-Harvard game.—Boston Globe.

GILBERT & SONS, 141 Maia Street EUCAL YPTUS The commercial propagation of the timber Eucalypts, the growing of the trees for fuel, posts, poles, piling, ties, lumber, manufacturing of implements, vehicles, fixtures, furniture and ve- neers, will be the one greatest indus- try of those sections adapted to the best growth of th trees. The tim- ber supply of the United States is fast fading away. PFvery working day sees the cutting of 100,000 acres of our for+ ests—perhaps thirty million acres per year, and we have less than 700,000,000 acres in all. To cut-all would be a crime. The timber supply of the fu- ture, particularly hardwood timber, will be the one . greatest economic problem the next generation will be called upon to solve. The forestry bureau has compiled statistics to show that our forests hold perhaps a twenty-five years' supply of all kinds of timber, estimating pres- ent rate of consumption. The situa- tion with regard to hardwood alone is mofe perilous. Tn 1905 the nation consumed 25.000,000,000 feet of hard- wood—less than fifteen years' supply now remaining, Timber has vastly in- creased in price and will increase in ever-rising proportion as the supply lessens and the demand increases. Twenty-five thousand million féet of hardwood! What can the most gigan- tic planting do to supply such a con- sumption? One hundred thousand acres would be only an introduction, one hundred million trees would stem the tide but for a breathing spell. There are untold uses for which tim- ber is required other than for lumber of common consumption: Hundreds, even thousands of millions of feet are used annually for such purposes as piling or wharf and pier construction, telephone and telegraph poles and posts, railroad ties, bridge materials, mine timbers, cooperage, implemen furniture, fixtures, finish, neers and the thousand and one manu- factures.

The steam and elec- tric roads of the United States use annually over one hundred million rail- road ties. The cost to the raflroads has increased alarmingly. No substi- tute for a wooden tie has ever been foungd that proves practical in use and wooden ties must be produced. The question is so grave that one great system sent its tie and timber expert around the world to seek a satisfac- tory solution; that systegr 15 now planting great areas of Eucalyptus te produce ties for the future, an exam. ple which every system should follow if economy and self-preservation is w1 object. The Eucalypts will gradually and certainly replace oak. hickory, and ash In the manufacture of impicments and vehicles and kindred produs-s. A t'mber supply for these industriss fs one of the distressing problems o 1he generation. For furniture and finest fixturs work there are few woods grown superlor tc the commercial Eucalyp's.
