Stow and Pierce in 70 Yard Runs to Touchdowns. Cambridge, Mass., Oct. 31.—One hour of fast scrimmage work was given the Harvard varsity eleven today. With the first string men alternating with the substitutes, three touchdowns were scored against the second team. Stow, recovering a fumble, made the first touchdown after a 70 yard run. After catching a punt, Pierce, behind a per- fect interference, raced 70 vards through the entire second team for the second score, while the third touchdown was made on straight rush- ing. But little forward passing was tried. Potter, the regular quarterback, was on the fleld in street clothes watching the practice. He will be g REFEREE nm Duties of ‘the Official Explained—Um.- pire Watches. for Fouls. In football, as in every other branch of sport, officials come in for-a lot of ccndemnation from spectators simply because they are enforcing the rules. Offside, hurdling and holding are only a few of the expressions which thos- in the stands shout to (he arbiters who have been selected as impartial eMcials, suys Walter Eekorsall, That spectators not already informed, may know the duties of the referce, e-?;umu. field judge, and head linesman, the q“i:i’l::"' of ?efll‘c ;vlm govern G]\{U;y gridiron contes: mportan s fmportant that the duties of sach be explained briefly so that when penal- ties are inflicted those in the stands may know what rules have been vio- jated. The referce is the head official ot the game. His rulings are final and he may forfeit a game whenever any tcam does not accept his commands. He is the sole custodian of the ball and the players must abide by his de- cisions as to where the ball is declared dead.’ He may at any time put a player out of the game for unsports- manlike playing or language, and he must recognize the decisions of the other officials whenever he is in doubt as to certain plays and to which side the ball belongs. In order to expadite matters, the referec aiways blows a whistle, the vmpire a horn, the field judge a whistle which differs in sound from that of the reforce, and the head linesman is equipped with any sort of noise-mak- ing instrument that differs in sound from those used by other arbiters. It seliom happens that a referee levies a penalty of his own volition. Helping the man with the ball, hurdling, start- ing before the ball, fajlure of the of- fensive team to have seven players on the line of scrimmage, and tripping in the open are fouls which the referee can call and penalize, while he may at any time penalize a team for receiving instructions from the side lines and tar the guilty person from the in- closure. In the great majority of cases the referee levies penailties on fouls called by one of the other officials. Tnder the present rules there is only one 10-yard penalty and that is for Anterference in the 20-yard or neutral zone. If the side in possession of the ball commits a foul a penalty of a Cown Is inflicted. If the team on.the defense interferes in the zome, the side in possession of the oval receives 10 yards from the point of the preced- ing down anhd the ensuing distance to be gained shall be rated as first down, 10 yards to gain. Fifteen-yard penal- ties are numerous, but they generally are inflicted for holding or use of the hands in interference. ‘The umpire has absolute jurisdiction over these fouls and the referee must levy penalties accordingly. YALE AT PRACTICE BEHIND CLOSED GATES. Varsity Beat the Scrub 9 to 3—New Plays Worked Against Regulars. New Haven, Conn., Oct. 31.—Behind closed gates this afternoon the Yole footbull squad was given a hard scrim- mage. The varsity lined up against the scrubs and came out on top by a 9 to 3 score after an hour's play. Previous to the scrimmage the second team was drilled in a series of new plays which were sorung on the var- sity wher they lined up and worked so well that the ball was carried within striking distance of the goal and a fleld goal kicked. The regulars evened matters up by carrying the ball into the scrubs’ territory by line plays and scored on a well executed forward pass. This was followed a few min- utes later by a goal from the field kicked by Captain Howe on the 35- yard line.

Attorney Gemeral Wickersham's willingness to accept the tobacco re- crganization plan, provided it be modi- fied in accordance with his proposals, was regarded In the street as of large importance. The opinion is gaining ground that the scheme of reorganiza- tion as ultimately will not be as onerous to holders of the securities as was feared by some interests. It is probable that a feeling of relief on that score was largely responsible for the course of the market, which be- iraved evidences of bullishness, in a quiet way, throughout the day.

In spite of his remarkabie work on the slab for years, Walsh never had shut 2 team out with- out a hit_until near the end of this season. On Aug. 27 Big Fd blanked Boston without a safe hit and came within_one man of the world's record. Early in the game one Red Sox got a base on balls and no one else got to first base. Less than a fortnight be- fore Walsh shut out Detroit with only one hit in nine innings and he almost stabbed that hit himself. Wood pitched his no-hit game against St. Louis on July 29. Twice this year American jeague pitchers have ailowed only two hits in nine innings and have been beaten. Ford and Brockett, between them, held St. Louis to two hits and the Browns won, 6 to 1. Cashion was beaten, 1 to 0, by the White Sox al- though they made only two safeties off h'm. There have been four games in which a pitcher was beaten with only three hits chalked down against him. Jim Scott had that experience asainst Detroit on Sept. 3. Wood held York to one hit in eight innings Johnson of Washinaton allowed Phila- Qelphia a lone hit in six innings. but these do not qualify for the records. Eighty Shutouts in American League. Games In which one team has been shut out have been comparatively in- frequent in the American league this year. The record of whitewashes in the young league for the season is 145. This year there wera only 80 shutouts, or a little over half as many. Chicago has been mixed up in 24 of the 1911 shutouts and has fared well. for the ‘White Sox have shut out their oppon- | ents 17 times and have failed to score only seven times. Almost any pitch- | er of prominence has at least one shutout to his credit this year, but Ed- | die Plank of the Athletics has wielded the brush oftenest. He has pitched seven shutout games. Ed Walsh and Walter Johnson have performtd the feat six times apiece, Joe Wood and Van Gregg. the Cleveland pitching | find, have pitched five whitewash games, and Doc White has pitched four of them. Safe and Sane Driving. As a varnish for terminals it is rec- ommended to use sealing wax dissolv- ed in gasoline with a little linseed oil added to prevent brittleness, Leaky front hubs are by no means uncommon, but whereas the condition generally indicates an oversupply of lubricant, it may foretell a shortage instead. The auto driver needs to have some horse sense, and must always bear in mind that he is handling a machine which is capable of running amuck and doing great damage to all who are in it or who get in its way, Scale” ide a radiator is not the only cause of defective cooling' In time all radiators collect a certain amount of dust and mud from the roads and, as a result, cool air is pre- vented from coming in direct contact with the tubes. Whips henceforth may be included in the “accessories’ for automobiles— in Germany!

In doubles the Wrenns are more subtle than forcing, and they frequently employ the lob with great effect.

There is no player in the United States with quite the force behind his driving as that of S. H. Smith, or the power and consistency of A. W. Gore, at his best.
