New = York,” Oct. 20.—President Thomas J. Lynch of the league /does not agree with the con- tention of President Horace IFogel of the Philadeiphia club that the league has no jurisdiction in the matter of investigating Fogel's alleged state- ments reflecting upon National league haseball. In a statement tonight Lynch says he has been-advised by John Conway Toole, retained as counsel in' the in- quiry into Fogel's case, that the league not only has jurisdiction, hut that, further, if it-is proven that Fogel made the assertions attributed to him, he may be punished even to the extent ot barring him from further participa- tion in the National league’s affairs, The leaghe officials, according to Lynch, are unanimously insistent that ¥ogel's case be probed and that “ap- propriate action” be taken “if it is found that any person has been guilty of making false statements” reflecting on the league’s methods in conducting championship contests. Fogel's hearing will be held in this city on Nov. 26. PRINCETON PREPARING FOR HARVARL. Varsity Improving on Defense— Tackling Not Yet Perfected. Princeton, N.. J. Oct. 30—Trg Princeton football team praeticed for .almost three hours foday on Universi- ty field in preparation for the contest against Harvard next Saturday. The scrab team was strengthened by the presence of severa) former stars but succeeded in scoring only one touchdown. This was made by Thompson, a former All-Western full- back, on & line plunge after Ham- mond, who played on the varsity last season, had brought the ball within the shadow of the goal posts on a 390- yard rur around end. The tackling of the varsity was< far from perfect, bur the defense in oiher respects was so much improved.that the scrubs wege | unable to gain ‘consistently: After the session was over the var- gity was lined up against the fresh- men for practice on the offense and managed io push over two touch- downs. SECRET PRACTICE AT YALE. Coaches Refuse to Give Out Informa- tion—York‘s Successor at Guard Not Yot Chosen. New Haven, Conn., Oct. 30.—Sixteen football coaches flozked to° Yale field lay to commence the work of polish ing the rough edges of the Yale eleven for the champlonship games.

Others at the fleld today were Walter Camp, L. F Bigelow, Carl' Flanders, Pop Corry, Howard Jones, Bo Olcott, Dr. Bull and the regular resident coaches, Arthur Howe, McDevitt and Scully. Shevlin took charge of the ends and the candidates for the wing positions were given the most strenuous prac- tice of ‘the year. Heffelfinger, who towered head 'and shoulders above every man on the team, taught the guards the finer points of the game, assisted by Sanford and Glass. The varsity and college teams lined up for scrimmage, behind closed gates and the coaches gave ont nothing for publication. It 1is understood, how- ever, that the varsity worked out a new line of offense along lines studiea out by Shevlin. The coaches are worried over the] loss of York, the 205-pound suard, who dled tonight of pneumonia. sgelveral mea were tried out today, but no definite selection made.

Under the guidance of a dozen coaches, includi ‘W. Cameron rbes, governor general of the Philippines, the players were put through a series of scrimmagea.

FINANGIAL AND COMMERCIAL WAR NEWS DEPRESSING. Substantial Rises of Opening Wiped Out Before Midday. New York, Oct. 30.—The shadow of war hung over the financial horizon again today. All foreign markets were unsettied after an early period of moderate optimism, due to reports that two of the leading European powers had arrived at an amicable under- standing regarding the conflict in the London’s eariy tone was one of cheer- fulness and buying orders from the continent and absence of further liqui- dating in Canadian Pacific. That stock rose over four points abroad and al- most the entire American group closed strong. As a result of this apparent improve- ment our market opened with a gen- eral substantial rise, Canadian Pacific gaining over three points, with one point gains in Union Pacific, Northern Pacific, Reading, Lehigh Valley, United States Steel, Amalgamated and Amer- ican Smelting. Before the end of the first hour persistent selling had wiped out most of the advance, and at mid- day, when the selling became more ex - tensive and wider in scope, it was ut- terly effaced, with some issues sell- ing under yesterday's low. By that time news from Europe had again assumed an alarming tone, and | there were signs that the foreign mar- kets were once more under strain. Short selling, especially in Steel, and presumably based upon yesterday’s financial statement, was a factor checked in the final hour. More or less complete recoveries were then record- ed, regardless of a rise to 8 per cent. in call loans, the rallv continuing to the firm but dull close and with num- erous net gains. The one important railway return ‘was that of the Reading system, which showed net gains for both its lines and coal company,the mhole totalling $816,- 000 and a surplus increase of $800,000. Bonds were lower, especially converti- ble issues. Total sales, par value, ag- gregated $1,600,000.

Quarterback System the Best, Declares Hamilton Fisk, Jr. Hamilton Fisk, Jr. the one-time mous Harvard football player, speaking about the changes and new rules, savs: “In one particular the new rules point to a reversion to the old school theory of aitack. The ad- dition of one mcre down makes it highly probable that the offsensive team, as soon as It gains possession | of the ball, will attempt, for two downs { at least, to rush. A premium has been placed upon continued possession of the ball, and luck, which played such a large part in the games last year, has been materially abolished. “Straight football will he more ix evidence this year; consequently more attention than ever will be paid to the development of a swift atta Now | that pushing and pulling have been abolished, it becomes increasingly im- portant that the backs get to the opening before the defense has time to size up the pi There are many devices for speeding wp the attack. One is the starting signal: another. not much practiced, s having the back field wagch the center’s wrists before the ball is put in play. It is possible by doing so to tell, by the snap of the wrists before the ball is passed, just when it is coming, so that the backs can start with the ball and not a shade of a second after it, as so many back fields do today. “The direct pass from center 1o halfback, used considerably at Yale, is+ another device for increasing the speed of a play.' In reality the direct pass shows up a play. The speed of a play | depends upon the amount of time the | runner takes to get to hit the line. Anything which " prévents the runner from concentrating his whole atien- tion upon thls essential is bad. The direct pass is bad in this respect be- cause, instead of removing all respon- | sibility from the runnmer by permit- | ting the quartevback to feed the ball to him, the runner must think of get- ting the ball before he gets to the hole and if the direct'pass is' in the slight- est degree untrue, hesitation on the part of ‘the runner resulis, and the speed.of the play -is negatived. “The only sound, sure and swift manner of feeding the ball to the back is through the medium of the guarter. With the return to stfalght football | will come the ‘sustained attack. It is likely that we shall more ‘goal- line marches” this year. While the offensive team starts on its march | down the: field 1t will be.good policy | to wear down the defense by the use of a highly diversified attack. Speéd ! not only in the execution of the plays ! but in® the rapidity: with which the plays follow one another will be in evidence. The 'defense ‘must not be ' given time to guess the peychology of the attack, ang in proportion as the distance to the goal line diminishes the speed .of the attack.should increase.” | | | Tigers Want Games.
