Pennsylvania batties at Ann Arbor the same aft- ernoon; Yale encounters the no longer fearsome Browns; Cornell meets and Marshall; Penn State settles with Lehigh, and at Pittsburg those two little terrors, Washington and Jefferson and the University of Pittsburs fall upon each other. Although it sizes up as a week-end far beyond the average, with cham- plonship embroilments as well as in- tersectional encounters to give it im- portance and added zest.

OUTPLAYED WESTERLY Lowry Made Spectacular Run, Scoring Westerly’s Only 19-6—Wilcox Played Strong Game —Academy Unable to Work the Forward Pass—Wind- In a well played and interesting e, the Norwich Free Academy eleven defeated Westerly High school Wednesday at Westerly by the score of 19 to 6. The Westerly eleven scored e touchdown in the first minute of play on a pretty forward pass, Har- vey to Lowry. Harvey threw the pass from midfield and the speedy Lowry carried it over Norwich’s ~oal line, It was the most spectacular play of the game. Academy tled the score in the second quarter. During the second half they added two more touchdowns and in general outplayed the Wester- 1y eleven. Wilcox, the Academy’s hus- Ky guard, was the bright star of the game. He ~layed the best game of his career and time after time .he broke through and threw the Westerly run- ner for a loss. Westerly was outweighed, but were enabled to keep in the game by com- plicated formations and trick plays. The formation Bulkeley used last Sat- CALVIN WILCOX, N. F. A’s Right Guard. urday in lining up four backs on a straight line for end runs was em- ployed by both teams with good ef- fect. The N. F. A. backfield showed an improved dodging and straight arm- ing ability. Shea ran the Norwich team well, and Lowry was the star for Westerly. The Academy tried several forward passes, but met with poor success, as a Westerly back usually nailed them. Westerly, on the other hand, used the pass with telling ef- fect. Saturday the Academy plays Wind- ham on the campus. The gamé by periods follows: -First Quarter, ‘Waesterly won the toss and received the kickoff. Beebe sent the pikskin 35 yards in a long and somewhat low curve. Then Westerly attempted to pound the Academy line. They tried it three times and, on the fourth down, Harvey threw a beautiful for- ward pass to Lowry. He ran 40 yards for a touchdown to the vociferous ju- bilation of the Westerly crowd. No goal was kicked. Hull received West- honors, but Penn and Michiagn have both come forward so far and so rapidly in the past week or ten days that their scrap is anticipated by the football fraternity with unexmected fervor. Harvard has a game with Brown and a battle with Yale to prepare for after Princeton has been met, and probabiy will not be at the top of her game next Saturday. Princeton, how- ever, has only Harvard and Yale to consider, and is likely to be a revela- tion to those who witnessed the earlier m‘mm of the Tigers to gain a foot- Both expect to have all their strength on the fleld. Buzz Law, who hasn't been in the best of physical condition the past two weeks, is fit, or almost fit, again, and barring new injuries, should be able to carry the full burden of Princeton’s kicking campaign. Much has been written of the new defense the Tigers are pre- paring to spring at the psychological moment, but Princeton is addicted to promising generously and fulfilling miserly. Hence. the prevalence of a belief that the Tigers will again center thel attack around the picking of their booting star and the eternall vigilance that has made for most of Prince- ton’s greatness the past few years. Princeton has no attack capable of scoring touchdowns against an eleven of Harvard's defensive strength and probably will not have one-tenth Saturday. ‘With Princeton it will dbe another case of laying back behind a stonewall defenes and a mighty kicker and walt- ing for a Harvard fumble or a block- ick, Haryard, on the other hand, fancies herself to win with a touch- down or two, and with Hardwick, ey, and Logan all oper- ating, the hope is likely to be realized. Brickley, too, is almost certain to horn in, but whether as a regular or as a nemergency corps has not been determined. Captain Charley appear- ed at the stadium in playing clothes Monday for the first time since his operation, and kicked 14 field goals out of 15 from the 1§ yard line—all with his left foot. If Brickley is started Harvard be- cpmes the best bet of the year, With Brickley in the Py YALE MAD STIFF SCRIMMAGE Captain Talbot Ran Through Signals “for First Time in Weeks New Haven, Conn., Nov. 4—Yale's football of changes in the line, indicating that he has not yet decided as to the final ‘makeup. .|man and should last longer. erly’s kickoff and ran it back 10 yards. Then the Academy 'backfield started a march down the field and it looked as if they would score, but Murtha fum- bled and a Westerly man feil on the ball. After hitting the line without gain, Knight sent a punt up the field and Shea ran it back 10 yards. Mur- tha made a 20 yard and then he shot a forward pass to O'Hearn, who took the ball to Westerly’s 15 yard line On the next play Murtha tried a forward to Hull, but Sloan of Westerly caught it Westerly tried a forward and it GIANTS MAY ADD DOOIN TO CATCHING DEPARRTMENT McGraw Has Offered Phillies’ Manager a Two-Year Contract The chances are that Charley Dooin, recently deposed as manager of the Philifes, will be on the catching staff of the Giants next season. On what may be considered absolutely reliable authority, it is said that McGraw has offered Dooin a two-year contract at a figure as high as that he received for managing the Philadelphia club, and has assured him that arrange- ments can be made with the club own- ers for his transfer. It is not known whether the plan contemplates the trading of players to the Phillies or the outright pur- chase for cash, but there can be no doubt that the negotiations are on. McGraw is in Laurel, M., and the rep- Tesentatives of the New York club In the offices here could neither confirm nor deny the report, not having heard from the Giant leader. Dooin admitted to a close persona friend two days ago that he had the offer under advisement and express- ed the belief that the deal would go through. The. Giants are badly in need of new catchers on account of the grad- val slowing up of McLean and Meyers. The new man, Harry Smith, may or may not turn out to be a star. At any rate, a catcher of the calibre of Dooin can be used to advantage. MACK IS SICK &= TOADYING H!S STARS Declares the Big Trio Will Never Ap- pear in Athletics’ Uniform Again Fans who believe that Connie Mack does not want to get rid of Plank, Bender and Coombs, but was merely trying to scare them, so that he could sign them at his own terms, are mis- taken. Mack has stated that the three pitchers would never again appear in Athletic uniforms. He didn't tell the reason for his sudden feeling of dis- pleasure toward the thres veterans, but he did say that the reasons for his action were different in each case. “The papers thave overlooked the fact,” observed Connie, “that these men are still great pitchers. Plank al- ways has taken good care of himself. He should be good for two or three years more. Bender is still a young ‘Why, he was the leading pitcher in" the Ameri- can league last season. “T haven't the slightest doubt that Coombs wili come back and pitch as good _ball as he ever did. This may sound funny for a man to say after the action I took, but it is a fact, nev- ertheless, For reasons which I won't divulge, I am through with them, and that's all there is to it.” Mack, in closing, made a significant remark when he ‘said: ‘I don't want the club. That goes for the whole one man on the team who is not for bunch.” . The gaunt general informed a friend that he was tired of working for ball playvers and wasn’t going broke toady- -ing to temperamental stars, failed. Then they rushed the ball on a series of line plunges and end runs a total of 40 yards. Mullen replaced Graham.

Knight punted to Shea, who ran it bach. Holmes, Murtha and Mullen in a se- ries of line plunges and good end runs carried the ball to Westerly's 15 yard line. Eloan of Westerly nailed a for- ward, Murtha to O’Hearn. Westerly made 10 yards on two end runs and ‘Wilcox broke up two line plays. Knight punted to Shea, who ran it back 10 yards. Murtha and Holmes carried the pigskin to Westerly’s 10 vard line and Murtha bucked the line for a touch- down. He failed to kick the goai. Beebe kicked off and on the first play the quarter ended. Score: N, F. A. 6, Westerly 6. Third Quarter. Phil Henault caught the kickoff and ran it back 20 yards. Holmes, Mur- tha and Mullen began & march down the field and finally landed the ball un- der the shadow of Westerly’s goal posts. There the Academy backfield made three attempts to put the ball over, but the Westerly line held like s rock. On the fourth down Westerly broke up a forward, Murtha to Huil Instead of kicking, Lowry decided to rush the ball out and on the first a tempt Wilcox of Norwich brok through and tackled Wilcox of West- ‘erly so hard that he fumbled the ball. Before it hit the ground Phil Henault grabbed it and ~lanted it over for the touchdown. Murtha failed to kick the goal. Academy kicked off to West- erly, but they were unable to gain and punted. The ball changed hands sev- eral times and finally Murtha made a 20 yard run for a touchdown and suc- ceeded in kicking the goal. Score: N. F. A. 19, Westerly 6. Fourth Quarter.

Here two attempts to gain failed and a forward was tried, Murtha to O’Hearn, but it hit the goal post. The game ended with the ball near mid- field. Score: N. F. A. 19, Westerly 6.

OUTLAWS UNABLE TO PAY $20,000 YEARLY TO JOHNSON President E. A. Steininger of St. Louis Opposed to Exorbitant Salaries President E. A. Steininge rof the St. Louis Federal league club has stated that he personally was opposed to pay- a year salary to Walter Johnson, > Natignals’ famed right- hander, who is said to be flirting with the outlaws. Fielder Jones, manager of the St. Louis Federals, likewise is opposed to exorbitant salaries for ball players, and it now appears that the “fireball king” 'will not be afforded an oppor- tunity to hurdle to the independents. “Just suppose we paild Johnson $20,- 000 a seasor and he pitched 40 games for us,” eaid Steininger. “That would mean $500 for each game he hurled. To get back this- money he wouldl have to pass at least 1,000 fans through the pay gate before we would procure receipts for our expenses.

The government-ownes cars are being used for military pur- poses. It is stated that these were o considerable service to the Greek army during the recent military cam- paigns in Macedonia, where there is a dearth of railways, acording to United States Consul John E. Kehl. “The = government now maintains an automobile corps and repair shop in Saloniki and in Janina, Epirus; and it is stated that it is so well satisfied with the results attained by the auto- bile service of the army during re- cent military operations that it has decided to equip a complete battalion of expert chaffeurs with 400 lorries,” Consul Kehl reports. “The minister of war at Athens is the competent authority in all matters relating to army supplies. The motor lorries at present employed in the army service are of about tow-ton capacity and can make about forty kilometers an hour. “Motor cars are being used by the Hellenic regime for carrying mails and for military traffic between Sa- loniki and several points in the in- terior. A regular automobile service, private undertaking, employing Amer- ican cars, is maintained between Ca- valla and Drama in the tobaceo- growing districts.

None of the highways are of modern construction, and the streets of the city are poorly paved and in bad condition. It is reported how that the Hellenic govern- ment will take steps to improve the condition of the roadways in the in- terior, of the occupied territory. Ow- he unsatisfactory country and lling topography of Macedonia, it is essential that motor vehicles for this market be durable and not of too light weight, and, so far as cars for | pleasure ~ purposes are concerned, cheapness is a requisite. For the latter reason, American manufactur- ers should be in nosition to compete against European firms in this dis- trict, inasmuch as American cars are as a rule, of lower price and of dur- able construction. Official sanction has been obtained by the Indianapolis motor speedway from the American Automobile Asso< ciation for its next G&00-mile racs, thereby refuting recent reports to the effect that the owners of the Hoosier track contemplated breaking with the parent orsanization.

Everything points toward a most suc- | cessful contest season in 1915, it is| said, so that to stir up a row at this time would be considered wholly un- wise. The value of motor car measured in the number of miles of successful use obtained. How much mileage is secured depends not only upon the choice of tire, but as well on how carefully the in-built mileage is conserved. Makers of tires can and do employ skill in the compounding rubber, in methods of making and in the -vulcanization processes by which the rubber and fabric are fused, into a homogeneous whole. The human element in the equation is important. Ne maker can or will underwrite and insure against the user’s abuse, mis- use and neglect of tires, which de- preciates the life of tires " in large measure. The common form of tire abuse is under inflation. Some mak- ers claim 97 per cent. of tires used are under-inflated.

For a_ fortnight we have been running nights and there is no telling how long we will have to keep to this schedule. There is not a sign of a let-up as far ahead as we can see. We are making machines for nearly every part of the country just now and they are going into various lines of trade. Farmers are buying quite a number, but they are not the only ones. “One of the interesting facts right here is the motorizing of the paint- ing and decorating trade. Contractors they can move their men, ladders ani paraphernalia all at once and from one end of a great city to another with the loss of a half hour or an hour at the most.
