MARKET UNSETTLED AT CLOSE. iy There ‘Were Further ieations of an Extended Bull Account. New. York, Nov. 22.—Trading in to- day's active market Was dgain go' erned to an unusual extent by techni- cal conditions. There were further in- dications of an axtended bull account, especially in metals and spectalties of recent prominence. and strength. Stocks of .theé - more speculative character were freely. offered -almcst from the outset, but registered lowest prices in the fina} hour; when the en- tire list became unsettled. One of the primary causes was an unexpected rise in call money to 4 1-2 and even 5 per cent., the iatter ratc being paid by a few belated borrowers. Authoritative denial of any impend- ing deal or consolidation of the metal companies was tne chief factor in that quarter, Coppers fell 2 to almost & points frcm highest quotations of the preceding session and twice that much from.- best prices of last week. Paper issues lost as much, also somo of the equipments and independent steel and iron issues, Bethlehemn oteel falling 30 points and recovering 10, with a ‘lo#k of 9 for the preferred. .

Motor shares and accessories domi- nated the market for a time at gains of 2 to 7 points, Chandler Motors.| leading the advance with Studebaker and Maxwell. Most i€ not all of these gains were forfeited, however, as were some substantiai advances «in the leather group. Ohio Gas retained over half its 5-point gain. but this proved to_be an isolated instance.

He tore line after line to pieces. Last year he failed miserably. His form reversal was one of the big surprises of the year. A Detroit sport writer advan- ces this solution: “Maulbetsch this year is probably just as good as the against Harvard. He was probably as zood last year. and did nothing. And the whole reason is this: “In 1914 Michigan had one of the best lines in ber. history; last year and this year two of the weakest. Just as a great flelding baseball team can make a pitcher, a good line makes’a[term again: backfield star. = Maulbetsch is not an open fleld runner but a line bucker.sTo buck successfully a line player has to have s, line that will prevent the op- posing” line men from bucking him. Maulbetsch standstill by the fellows on the other side of the scrimmage line who brealk threugh hi sown first defence and sit on him. They get him before he really gete started. Maulbetsch's line in 1914 was making holes in the Harvard first de- fence through which Maulbetsch shot for huge gains. But his line aid not open holes last year. Therefore Maul- botseh, instead of pouring into the op- posing mass, found them pouring in and over him.” FACULTY REFUSES TO LIFT BAN ON CLARY Cornell Baseball Captain Will be Un- able to Compete in Athletics.

This attack wiil embody ‘a‘eral and forward passing plays such'as neve: | have been employed by an Bastern eleven, a much more ezborate collee- | tion than that which Frank Hinkey re- veajed in the Yale e'even of 1911, and unless Yale ~'has secured informatior which is unknown and undreamed of by Harvard inen, except those on the varsity squad, Yals will have had no opportunity to fgmulate a studied defence, and such a defence is the only method by which such plays can be succeesfully met and overcome. Accounts of Harvard's practice ses- sions this season, well censored by, the Crimson coaching Staff, have. contain- | ed 110 mention of the drilling the Har- ard tesm has had in the passing style of, footbal’. "So contrary is this | style 1o the stvle Harvard has em- ployed for years, that even the few whisperings abaut Cambridge con- cernirg it. have been laughed at. Yet Harvard has been most thoroughiy drilled in this type of play; possesses men wHo are unusually capable in throwing and handling passes; while the events of-the season as regards the" two ancient rivals of Saturday, | emphasizes the wisdom ‘of employing | overhead football against the sons of Haryard for years has carried a s tem of elaborate passing plays. It has found it necessary to uncover this sys- tem, but few times. Two vears ago, in the Harvard-Penn State game, how- ever, with Penn State leading in the score, up to the last few moments of play, Harvard won the victory by means of a quadrupie pass which saw the ball ziz-zag three times across the field. and then forward into the arms of Willcox, a Harvard back who raced with it to a touchdown. And. although the bulk of the passing plays Harvard has vsed rezularly are direct forward passes. familiar to all teams, there have been other notable instances when more unusval passing has fig- ured in Harvard’s play. Dark Horse in Field. Coolidge and Harte, the regular Har- vard ends, and Casey, the regular left half-back. already this season have proved themfelves adept at -receiving fortard passes, and Harvard's per- centage of completed forward pass plays this season is far ahead of that of any other Eastern eleven. But in addition to Coolidge, Harte and Casey, there is a man on Harvard’s squad— a comparatively unknown p'nayer so far as the East is concerned — who two seasons ago was considered the greatest forward pass received in the West. That man is Joe Ryan, the star end of the great Notre Dame eleven of two years ago. Ryan, being a transter student last son, was ineligible for the Har- vard varsity, and worked through the 1915 season as an ond on the Har- vard subs. but such an end was he, particularly in handiing forward pass- es. that those familiar with his ability were then convinced that he would win a regular position on this sea- son's team. Ryan reported for the team: was given a seat at the varsity training table. but was not selected for the varsily squad with the first group picked, and those familiar- with the) situation wondered. That first week fornd Ryan playing end for the scrub found Conch Haughton solicitous as to how he was getting along. and a few weeks Jater found the Harvard censors finally allowing mention of his wonderful work against the varsity to escape to the At the Varsity Table. ATl this time Rvan still remalned a suest of the varsitr training table. instend of the scrub team table, at which ail other of his scrub mnle. dined. Finally Ryan was moted up to the varsity squad, and again those fa- ar with his ability predicted he would win out in the fight for a reg- ular end position. But such was not the case. In fact, since Ryan has been a member of Harvard's varsity £quad he has taken part in but one contest and on that occasion was in the lineup but a few moments. In that few moments, however, a forward pass play was called for. and Joe Ryan was the man to dash down the | fie'd. and Joe Ryan was the man to receive the pass for a 1f-vard galn, and in a fashion that showed he’ pos- sessed all the ability he had been COMBINATION No. 1 1 bottle 3-Star Hennessey . . ... 1 full quart Impcrted Por? . i ) PR AT SR S T LB Only $1.75 COMBINATION No. 2 full quart McGinnis’ Pure Rye 1 Full quart White Port .................
