Compared with the wonderful exhi- bition of team play given by the Har- vard eleven of 1915 against Yale, the first_meeting of these two university squdds would appear almost laugh- gble if it could be staged again today. TFhat contest ‘was played at New Ha- ven on Saturday, November 13, 1875, on a fleld measuring 400 by 200 feet and was witnessed by about 1,500 spec- tators, which included several hundred women. The number of players on a team was ‘optional with the captain, the: rules simply specifying that from tleven to fifteen might be played. The game was divided- into three thirty- minute periods and the only scoring permitted was a goal following touch- down, kicked over the goal bar sus- pended ten feet from the ground from two uprights twenty feet apart. Harvard won by four goals to noth- Ing,. the.Crimson. scoring two-in the frst half hour and one, each in the remaining two periods. . The ball could e kicked . or. carried; caught on the bound or fly and the runner could be. tackled and thrown as at present. Har- vard’s cheering contingent consisted ot 150 students who made. the trip from Cambridge to witness. the play. No w@missiori was charged and the size of the erowd and absence of gate re. ceipts asty sparply with the fact that- ver g alose fo 120,000 persons ‘paid $240,000 to see the Harvard-Yale games of 1914 and 1915.

The fact that Fred Fulton has knocked out Arthur Pelky and several other heavies of the same calibre, SYRACUSE CRUSHES OCCIDENTAL Heavy New York Eleven too Much for Californians—Score 36 to 0—Slater Made Feature Run of 90 Yards—Cap- tain McClung Fractures Right Leg. while nothing much to cheer over, is taken seriously in some quarters, not- ably by those who are figuring on pro- moting a battle between him and Jess Willard. * Just at present New Orleans appears In line to get the contest, with the datc all set.for March 3, but much may happen between times, and it remains to. be seen whether the affair will- go through or not. And in. the meanwhile, as probably not more than one fan out of ten has ever.heard of Fulton before, or at least has anything like a line on him, a lit- tle dope is not out of place. Fulton was discovered in the wilds of Minnesota some time ago—and not a long time. In fact, he has not been out of the brush long enough to have his name appear in_the fistlc records or his photograph break into pluces farther remote from Minnesota than Chicago. Fulton's age has not been revealed, but his picture would convince that he is still on the youthful side of 30. He was born, raised and found in Roches- ter, Minh. He is reported to have been found by Mike Collins, prominent Minnesota promoter and manager. Fred is the only boxer in captivity who closely approaches Willard in size and general development. He stands six feet four inches in height. Willard’s height is six feet six inches. His battling weight is 220 pounds. Willard battles at about 225 or 230 pounds. And Fred's reach is 84 1-2 inches, which evervone must admit is some reach. Figure it out for yourself and youll find that to be seven feet and one-half inch. It's the longest reach possessed by any living boxer. Willard measures 83 1-2 inches in reach, and Jess is the only man who approaches Fulton in that respect. These are two of the reasons why Fulton has jumped to the fore. His record is a rather brief one, including knockouts over- Arthur Pelky, Jack Moran, Jack Lewis, Tim Logan, Terry Kellar and last, Andre Anderson. The knockouts over Pelky and An- derson thrust Fulton to the front more than all of his other performances. The clash with Anderson took place at Milwaukee just a short time ago. Anderson had been well advertised. He undoubtedly had.more than mediocre merit. Wise men wasted considerable vocal energy raving over him, A Chi- cagoan was so_thoroughly convinced that Anderson had the gcods that he backed his opinion with $5,000. Fulton dropped Anderson cold in an early round. y It has been claimed and since de- nied, that last spring Wiilard was touring Minnesota_giving exhibitions, in connection with the 101 Ranch show, against all local comers that he FINANGIAL AND GOMMERCIAL MARKET DULL AND IRREGULAR. Frequent Periods of Absolute Inertia Until the Final Hour. New York, Dec. 6.—In its outstand- ing features, today’s market was large- Iy a repetition of last week’s dull and irregular sessions. Dealings were light with frequent periods of absolute in- ertia, until the final hour, when a broad and general buying movement in standard railway shares, notably New York Central and the Harrimans, im- parted decided strength to the entire list. > Prior to the inquiry for investment issues there had been a number of spectacular advances in high priced specialties of various descriptions, in- cluding automobile, oil, sugar and ex- press’ company shares. General Motors, common and pre- ferred, sold at record-breaking_ prices, the common gaining 37 1-2 at 530 and the preferred 7 1-2 at 123 1-2, while other issues of that particular group were 2 to 5 points higher. “Mexican Petroleum preferred led the oils, rising 8 to 94, with an advance of 5 1-2 to 217 for Texas Company. Gains of 2 to 7 points in United States, Adams and American Express shares offered a marked contrast to the weak- ness of those stocks some months ago. Coppers, fertilizers, department store shares and erstwhile favorites in the war_aivision, such as Baldwin Loco- motive, American Locomotive, Crucible Steel, ‘Republic Iron, Colorado Fuel and General Electric were one to three points over recent quotations. Allis-Chalmers preferred rose 2 to 84 1-2, a new record, the advance co- inciding with the resumption of divi- dends on that stock, together with partial payment of deferred disburse- ments. First place in activity was held by U. S. Steel, that stock making an ex- treme gain of 3-4 at 87, but Beth- lehem Steel was azain unquoted. United Fruit was pressed for sale, al- though its annual statement disclosed a surplus of $2,973,000 for the fiscal year, in place of a deficit in 1914. Total sales amounted to 562,000 shares. Lower rates for short time money were accepted as a corollary of the un- precedented banking supplies at all re- serve centers. Western railroads re- -ported a larger volume of freight and greater diversification of traffic. The Burlington road showed a net increase of $724,000 for October, while Norfolk and Western galned virtually $1,000,- Bonds were steady to firm, sales, par value, were $4,685,000.

Crimson Slowly Returning to Gradu- ate Coaching System. Good athletes who will be lost by graduation are not worrying the Har- vard athletic authorities one-third as much as the string of coaches in th varsity teams of former years who have been lost to the crimson. With the coaching of Haughton for another year rather doubtful, Harvard will have three new and untried coaches for its big team in 1916, and possibly four. Baseball crew and track have already had last vears coaches deposed, in favor of newcomers, and the indica- tions are that Harvard is slowly re- turning to the graduate system of coaching. Dr. Frank J. Saxton quit the baseball squad in the middle of its season last spring, and he was tem- porarily succeeded by Percy D. Haugton. Jim Wray, the head coach of rowing, was deposed following the Harvard defeat on the Thames last June, and the head coach now is Rob- ert J. Herrick. J. Fred Powers, coach of the field athletes of the track team, has also resigned, and Ellery H. Clark is his successor. Alfred H. Winsor, coach of the var- sity hockey team, and ‘Pooch” Dono- van, coach of the track team, are the only two veteran coaches who are cer- tain to have their positions in 1916. The greatest concern, however, is over Percy D. Haughton, the football coach, whose contract with the Harvard ath- letic association expired at the end of the present season. It is Haughton's wish that he have a vacation just now, and the advances of the Harvard au- thorities to have him sign a new con- tract will not be made until spring, probably. The football czar is independently wealthy and is interested in the brok- erage business. A salary of five figures would therefore not be particularly luring to him in these days when the stock market men are cleaning up big money in the open market. Haughton considers thag the time he spends pre- paring the football team for its cam- paign is really more than he can af- ford to takef rom his regular business. Robert F. Herrick, the head coach of the crew, is hardly an untested tu- tor in this branch of sport. He has done good work at Harvard already, the training of the second varsity crew, which won the English Henley against all comers, having been his prize feat. Mr. Herrick will be assist- ed by William Haines in running the Harvard crew, and Jim Wray, inas- much as he is still drawing the money that his unexpired contract calls for, may be seen at the Harvard boat- house. 1915 A SEASON OF CRACK PLAYERS. Game Has Made Remarkable Strides All Through the Country. With the intercollegiate football campaign of 1915 gone into history, the merry season for making all-star seléctions is ushered in. In the days of yore, sridiron critics were unani- mous in their heroism and dubbed their choices All-American _teams. There are still a few such hardy gen- tlemen extant, but in the main critics nowadays confine their selective efforts to_sectional elevens. There is absolutely no man, or even set of experts, in this country capable of choosing an that will even approach giving all the available material a square deal. Good football is no longer confined to a sec- tion within 400 miles of the Yale yard. The game has made remarkable strides in the south, on the Pacific coast, in the Rocky mountain section, in the middle west and in the western Penn- sylvania division. They All Belong Whereas in past years Yale, Har- vard, Princeton, Cornell, Pennsylvania and a few other eastern teams almost had a monopoly of stellar football players, we now find such places as the University of Washington, Oregon Agricultural college, Washington State college, Nebraska, Illinois, Minnesota, Michigan Agricultural, = Pittsburgh, Washington and Jefferson, Penn State, Virginia, Alabama Poly (Auburn), Vanderbilt and a host of other insti- tutions each having its quota of ex- perts of really major cilabre. Game Really National. The trend of the times in football is indicated by some of the results of the season just closed. Virginia came up and trounced Yale and gave Harvard a neat scrap. The Oregon Aggies whipped the Michigan Aggies, con- querors of Michigan, with the utmost ease, and the Oregon eleven had al- ready been beaten by Washington State, 29 to 0! To further complicate matters, Washington State is consid- ered only second to the University of ‘Washington, unbeaten for eight years. Evidently they play football out yon- der. Syracuse, with a claim to the east- ern’ title, accounted one of the strong- est teams in this section of the coun- try, went out to beat the University of Montana by 40 to 0 and was held to a tie. In the wild and woolly Montana is considered pie. Syracuse also gave the Oregon Aggies a bad trouncing. Castern coaches and the glant and sturdy sons of the cat- tle-growing, timber and mining coun- try have produced remarkable combi- of football civilizatidn. truly natlonal.

Syracuse Freshmen Win Debate New Haven, Conn., Dec. 6.—Syra- cuse University freshmen won _the ff°th annual debate with the Yafle freshmen tonight. The visitors main- tained the negative of this question: ‘Resolved, that immigration should be further restricted by a literacy test.” The decision of the judges was unani- ‘moue. All-American team ! will flow at low temperatures, but coach Cornell teams, which has four more years to run, the request would not be granted, judging by the present state#of mind of the men in charge of football at Ithaca. A careful sounding of :sentiment finds a unani- mous opinion on this point. It has taken Cornell 15 years to work out her football salvation and any _at- tempt to disrupt the system would be met with strong opposition. It is not believed here that the conting- ency will arise. The football team will elect a cap- tain next week at a banquet to be gliven in its honor by the athletic as- sociation. All of the “C” men will take part in the election. The dis- cussion of candidates so far has not developed any great favorites, al- though a number of men are mention- ed for the honor. If Cornell elects a man who will be a senior next year, and that probably will be done, the choice will lie between Mueller, full- back: Anderson, right guard; Tille guard and tackle, and Eckley, right end. Tilley and Anderson have played for two years, Eckley and Muellot were subs last year and played ‘Var- 'sity football for the first time this year. The other 'Varsity men who will be available next fall include Shiverick, Gilles and Miller, all Soph- omores. It is not thought probable that any of these three will be chot en captain. Although Cornell suffers heavily in the loss of Barrett, Cool, Shelton, Collins and Jameson, the outlook for next year is not bad. In addition to the men mentioned above Sharpe can call on Hoffman and Benedict, two capable substitute halfbacks; Bard and Dixon, substitute linemen; Brown, a substitute centre and Ryerson and Zander, two prominent ends, and also on Bretz, who played a good game at quarter on the Freshman eleven this ra{lt. Bretz probably will succeed Bar- rett. Talk of next vear's schedule is of games with Harvard, Penn and Michi- gan, the last in Ithaca, and probably a game with Colgate. Most of the smaller teams on the schedule this year will be retained. Jack Howson Dead. Jack Howson, pitcher for two sea- sons in the Colonial league, died in a Lowell hospital the other night. How- son was with Brockton last summer and lowered the colors of Bert Max- Th unpleasantness of cold weather starting has been eliminated by better motor design. Automobile eniineers have done a great deal of experiment- ing in order to make easler the start- ing of cold motors. As a result, cars having carburetors designed in correct relation to the motor: ignition that is reliable even on the lowest motor speed, and easily accessible priming devices are those that can be right fully called all-weather cars. Carburetion is naturally a big item for cold weather starting. _Gasoline | its vaporization is difficult to draw ’into the motor on cold days. Hence, the long intake manifold is practically useless as he gasoline vapor, on strik- ing its cold walls, condenses and flows back to the carburetor. This obstacle has been overcome by having the car- buretor directly connected to the cyl- inder block and therefore at the near- est point to the cylinder chambers. Methods to produce carburetion have also undergone changes. Water was used in some instances to flow around the carburetor. The more simple design of using hot air from the motor has superseded this, how- ever, giving better results. Ignition is a' factor to be considered in easy motor starting. Magnetos are ad- mitted to be reliable when the motor is running at a high speed, but not when it is being turned over slowly by_the starter. Dry cells are only reliable when at their full power and to have this re- quires frequent renewals. Even if kept renewed at frequent intervals, they prove a nuisance owing to the additional wiring involved. Low speed ignition that has proved reliable for easy starting has met with success in the generator-storage battery system. This method gives a good hot spark at all times and serves the purpose of starting the motor at once even if only a lean gasoline mixture exists. The old-time method of priming the motor by hand has been replaced by a cowl board control that operates the “carburetor in such a manner that the raw gasoline is drawn directly into the motor. Besides the accessability of the device more easy starting also is brought about. Automobiling is be- coming a national sport that is follow- ed at all_times by people in all cli- mates. To meet the demand. follo ers of the sport are becoming critical in their selections and the car used must be capable of withstanding vary- ing condition: All accessories of a car that are subject to wear can be greatly re- duced. The life of the wiring, gas tubing, can be increased at slight ex- pense and little trouble. Metallic flexible tubing is now marketed in ject to the weather and could not 2 small piece of this was placed over the rubber tubing, leading fo the gas lights, the rubber would not be sub- ject to the weather and could not kink, a trouble frequently met with. A method of preserving the insula- tion on the wires leading from the battery. Pieces of tubing are insert- ed In holes in the battery box and the wires passed through them. The Canadian praliament in Ottawa has granted to motorists in the Uni- ted States the privilege of touring for 10 days in Canada without complica- tions as to licenses or customs bonds. Canadian motorists in the United States have had this privilege for some time, but on entering Canada it ‘was necessary to get a license and put up a bond for the re-exportation of the car, which usually cost about $5. The present privileges are granted at the discretion of the customs officlals and are contingent upon satisfying him that it is the intention to take the car out of the country again. Last spring the Royal Automobile Club tested in England a fuel origi nating in Natal, South Africa, which was a_combination of alcohol and eth- DOINGS IN THE AUTO WORLD Carburetion is a Big Item for Cold Weather Starting of Cars —United States Motorists Granted a 10 Day Privilege of Touring Canada Without Complications—Predicted That There Will be 5,000,000 Cars in 1920- well's Maxims on several occasions.

DALY'S STAR ELEVEN ms Coach Pays Great Tribute to Mahan Coach Fred Daly of the Williams football team has picked from the teams that he has seen in action this season the 11 men whom he _thinks would be best qualified for the dif- ferent positions on an “All" team. Daly does not call his choice either an All-American or All-Eastern. As in every case he picks Mahan for fullback on the eleven and pays the great crimson leader a glowing trib- ute. He says: ‘If all the good qual- ities of the other 10 men were put together and a few more words of praise added it would be appropriate and fitting to the greatest of all play- ers. No cleaner, no harder, no more skilled football player ever played the game than the Harvard captain of 1915." His choice is as follows: Left end Shelton, Cornell Left tackie ........ Gilman, Harvard Left guard . . Dadmun, Harvard Center 3 McEwan, Army Right guard Black, Yale Right tackle . eveees... Way, Yale Right end .. Soucy, Harvard Quarterback . Barrett, Cornell Left halfback . .. Pollard, Brown Right halfback Oliphant, Army Fullback Mahan, Harvard THIRTEEN TEAMS BUNCHED IN SIX DAY BICYCLE RACE Had Coveed 535 Miles, 9 Laps at Mid- night—Two Miles Behind Record. New York, Dec. 6.—At midnight, when the riders in the six-day bicy- cle race here had completed 24 hours on the track, all of the seventeen teams were still In the running. Thirteen of them were bunched in the lead, having covered 535 miles, 9 laps, exactly two miles behind the record, made by Fogler and Hill last year. Sullivan and Anderson were one lap behind the leaders with 535 miles, 8 laps. Suter and Madonna had cov- ered 535 miles, 7 laps, while Kopsky and Wdhirbach as weil as Ruddie- Russe and Vanderstuyft had covered 535 miles, 6 laps. 2 a. m. Score. At two o'clock the 26th_hour, thir- teen teams were tied at 576 miles, 3 laps. Sullivan and Anderson were one lap behind; Suter and Madonna had covered 576 miles, one lap, while Wohl- wil ogy, in _the Transvaal. He reports that .165 gallon of ethol is consumed per brake horsepower per hour as compared to .125 gallon of gasoline. This is about the same or a little less than the efficiency that was secured from natalite. It is the prediction that by 1920 there will be 5,000,000 automobiles in use in the United States. The num- ber today is about 2,250,000. The owner of a large interest in one of the leading companies has this to say about the future demand for cars: H _“When you stop to think of it there are few articles for which such a demand exists as for the motor car. The automobile is a product which every one, man, woman and, above a certain age, child, wants. There are not many products in this class. Everyone who has the price, | for instance, does not want a type writer or an adding machine. Most articles have a limited field, even though everyone could afford to buy them. But with the exception of a few cranks, very limited in number, every grown up can and does enjoy motoring and wishes to own a car. That is why every reduction in price enlarges so rapidly the size of the au- tomobile market. We have not yet ap- proached the saturation point in this country and increases in motor car production seem to ~me certain for many years to come. A new two-cycle motor, which is de- clared by experts to eliminate most of the objectionable characteristics that have previously been experienced with two-cycle motors, has been developed in Philadelphia and is now being used in trucks and tractors intended for war uee. Instead of using the crank case as a pre-compression chamber, the low- er end of the cylinder is used. The connecting rod is outside the cylinder and connects with the piston through a slot in the cylinder wall. This invariably efficient pre-com- pression is sald to make the operation of the motor at any speed and regard- less of the age of the machine as ef- ficient as the four-cycle motor, while all the simplicity of the two-cycle is maintained. This improvement is be- lieved to make the two-cycle motor avallable for automobile use. _Contributing so-called registra- tion taxes over $20,000,000 yearly to the upkeep of the nation’s roads, dis- criminated against in that horse- drawn vehicles are neither tagged nor taxed nor restricted in crossing and recrossing state lines, automobile own- ers are not receiving with an vast en- thusiasm the proposal that they shall pay again substantially in the cost of war preparedness. What may accentuate their dissent from once more being singled out is that in many states owners now pay three taxes; for registration of the car, operating license for its driving, and also under the head of personal property.

CARLISLE INDIANS MAY ABANDON FOOTBALL Owing to Poor Showing 1915 Eleven Made- The question as to whether the Car- lisle Indian school should abandon football after a rather poor season has been much discussed at Carlisle for the last few days, apparently without sug- gestion from authoritative sources. Throughout the past season differences between the coaches, Victor Kelly and Gus Welch, have been noted by those familiar with the Indian team's work and it was realized that the school authorities would not allow an atmo- sphere surcharged with uncongenial feeling to surround the football team for_another season. Following the rumors of the probable abandonment of football there, Super- intendent Lipps was asked as to the school’s probable policy. Superintendent Lipps said that he was siving the m ter consideration, but had not m Lis mind and would not care an announcement until about th of the week. Sentiment amon Indian youths and maidens a lisle school is strongly against siving up football, and none of the school's friends in the locality can understand what reasons can be siven for its a lition.

The demand for games against Indians is ronger than ever. Prince. ton has asked for a game for the first time in many years, and many of the best schools in America would like to have Carlisle on their edules.
