A. will play its final game with the All Collegians. N. F. A. has won seven games this season and lost only two, so that a very fast game is expected to close the season. The All Collegians will have a number of col- lege stars in heir lineup. Murtha who has played end on Trinity this fall and who hurt his shoulder in the Trinity- Yale game will play, if his injuries do not stop him, while Coyle or O’Hearn, both old N. F. A. stars will probably play the other end. Gilhooley will probably play in the backfield. He is well known in N. F. A. football life, having played on the All Collegians last year. In the lne will be Jackson of the Trinity team of this year and “Doc” Beebe, an old N. F. A. captain. ‘With this aggregation of fast college stars N. F. A. will have a hard time to do much, but a fast game is hoped for. Kozlowski of the N. F. A. lienup will probably not be able to play to- day. Brend will play right tackle. The management depends on this game to bring the season through to a successful financial end so that a large crowd is hoped for.

NO MORE AUTO | RACES DURING WAR| coo DA e T Skilled Mechanics Used in Racing. The contest board of the American Automobile Association, which gov- erns automobile racing in this country, yesterday decided not to issue any more sanctions for motor contests dur- ing the period of war exigency. This practically means the abandoning of automobile racing until after the war, it was stated. The step was taken because pf ‘the government’s need of skilled = me- chanics. It was explained that there are more than twelve hundred drivers and mechanics enrolled in the Amer- ican Automobile Association ~who, now that the temptation to race has been removed, will be available for war needs. The resolution of the as- sociation putting the ban on racing will go into -effect January 1, when the rules of the contest board will be sus- pended, it was announced. . The resolution follow: “Whereas our country is in a state of war in which our entire availgble man power is needed for national ac- tivities: and “Whereas, the national need for skilled workmen in numbers greater MARKET WAS DULL‘ of the High Grade R: One to Almost Three Points. New York, Nov. 28.—The impending holiday and the yet more drastic reg- ulations adopted by the stock exchange against professional trading were in themselves sufficient to effect a decided diminution of operations in today's mraket. ‘To these factors were added the con- flicting adivces from abroad, such as the reported peace negotiations be- tween the Russian radicals and the céntral powers and Italy’s further suc- cessful defensive. Hxchange on Rome failed to respond to the latter develop- ment, however, and remittances to the Scandinavian countries were scarcely altered, despite the reported German threat to seize Denmark. Rails were again consistently heavy, several of the high grade issues yield- ing one to almost three points. new low records were established, Pennsylvania falling a fraction to 45 7-8 and Baltimore and Ohio yielding 1 1-4 to 49 1-2. Grangers and trans- continentals reacted one to two points, with minor low priced rails. JIndystrials were less susceptible to m although losing ground in the more general setback of the last hour. Motors and a handful of specialties registered extreme gains of one to 3 1-2 points, but these, too, were shad- ed at the heavy close. Announcement of the placing of sev- eral large war orders to some of the leading equipment companies failed to- stimulate issues of that division. U. S. Steel continued its narrow movement of recent days, closing at 97, a loss of 3-8 of a point.

M. Rowe, of Baltimors, one-time President John W Wilson, of Franklin, Pa., and other national officers in attendance at the meeting approved the action of the contest board. CHICAGO FOR SIXTH TIME GETS THE GRAND AMERICAN As 1917 the Trapshooting Classic Will Be Shot Over the Traps of the South Shore Country Club—Contest- ants W Wear Numbers and 100 Prizes Will Be Given if More Than 350 Entries. By Peter P. Carney, Editor National Sports Syndicate. ‘Chicago will be the scene of the Grand American trapshooting tourna- ment—the blue-ribbon event of trap- dom: 19i8. The place of action will be the South Shore <Country Club, where the 1917 tournament was con- ducted. Tho Interstate Association—the na- i of trapshooting—and the in general appear par- al to the Windy City when it comes tc .making selection for® the trap- shooting c: . This will e {he sixth Grand American in Chicago 19 years. It was first staged cazo in 1907 anad played sements in 1909, 1910, 191 And the greatest of all tournaments was the one of 1917. There is no bet- ter spot in the world to stage such a tournament as the Grand American than at the South Shore Country Club, and when the Chicago organization made u request for the 1918 tourna- ment there was no one to say them no. There will be a few changes in the handling of the 1918 tournament—all for the better. There will be no pro- fessional matches each day, as in the past. The professionals will shoot the line with the amateurs on thie opening day of the tournament— in the introductory event at 18 yards —and the one who makes the high ore ‘will‘be hailed as the profession- ai caampion of 1918. This shooting will wind up the professional for the week. As time goes on less is scen of the trapshooting professional in competi- tion. The shooters will be numbered, too, Trapshooting is about the last sport to take to the numbering of its contest- ants, but the reason for this is that no one suggested the idea before. It will be easy to understand just how much of a benefit it will be to the spectators to have the ‘shooters num- bered and a programme to teil them who is who when 100 or more men are at the traps at one time. It will make it easier for every one to get acquainted. These numbers will be furnished by the South Shore Country Club, and the programme, showing ‘handicaps of all entrants, where they are from, etc will be distributed by the Interstat: Association. This idea will bring th spectators in. closer touch with the sport. The scheme might be through in all state cham tournaments, too; in fact, shoot where there are more than competitor. A change that interests every trap- shooter was that of making 100 prizes if the entry list exceeded 350 in the Preliminary or Grand American Hand- icaps. If the number of entrants falls e gegsgstey SBE W THINGS WE SHOULD BE THANKFUL FOR. (Continued from Page One.) no foe has invaded our country, our | cities have not been destroyed and our people go about their business and live in peace, in plenty and in se- | curity.” ¢ - Secretary Sweet. Several of the messages emphasize that the American people should con- sider it is a blessing to fight a right- ecus war for. honest ideals and Edwin F. Sweet, acting secretary of com- merce, says that the wrongdoer can never truly give thanks “He may gloat over his barbarities and crimes, but thanks to the Giver of All Good, in the name of the Prince of Peace, would, on his lips, be a hide- ous mockery. Secretary Lansing. “If we measured our national biess- ings by the materialistic standard of physical comfort and prosperity, which has been in recent years so potent in our thought as a people,” says Secre- tary Lansing, “the observance of Thanksgiving Day this year might seem almost a mockery, for we are engaged in the most destructive and terrible war of all times. But a new conception of national blessing has come to the American people, a con- ception in which the spiritual is ex- alted above the material, in which the Hfe of the nation is placed above the life of the individnal No greater blessing could have come to the re- public than this awakening to the fact that patriotism is more to be prized than wealth.” Secretary of Labor Wilson. Secretary of Labor Wilson who bas just crosséd the continent, telegraphed from Portland, Ore., that “in the midst of all diversity of place and people, behind all differences I find a common and complete devotion to. this country and an unquestioning devotion to the aims of freedom and @emocracy which are the purposes of the country be- hind the war.” Secretary McAdoo. “Grim and terrible as is the task before us,” says Secretary McAdoo, “let us thank God on this Thanksgiv- ing Day, that noble America, faithful to her traditions, the undaunted cham- pion of democracy, has been called to perform this great and glorious service tc mankind Secretary Baker. Secretary Baker savs that men of the war department sent a word of cd cheer in midst of activities of trying to get men to France and equip- short of 350, then the prize list re- mains as it is nov--30 places. For the past #ive yea however, the en- trants have exceeded 500. There was no end of important hap- penings at the annual meeting of the Interstate Association, the most im- portant being the abandonment of the subsidiary bhandicaps for 1918. In piace of the Lastern, Western, South- ern and Pacific Coast Handicaps, the tournament .committee was delezated to find ways of conducting a handicap event at cach of the 46 State cham- pionship tournaments. The money that was given to the four subsidiary handicaps will be ziven the handicaps conducted by the state associations. This move is a radical one, but it was the opinion that the subsidiary handicaps did not promote trapshoot- ing as it was thought they would, and the association thought a change was necessary—and thought this was the time to make the move. In connection with every one of' the amateur state championships there will | be a professional championship. The professionals who reside .in the state will be allowed to shoot along with the amateurs, and the professional who makes the highest score will be regarded as the professional champion of_that stite. The 1918 policy of the association will be the same as in 1517, outside of | e fact that the number of registered tournaments in some sections may be cut down. There is a feeling that in some sections there are too many reg- tered tournaments, and the tourna- ment committee was _instructed to delve into the matter with the state associations and work out an equitable pian for every state. So It Goes. Manager Miller Huggins of the Yan- kees now has to_endure all the ad- vice and ild rumors that go with a {new manager. One has it that he al- iready has started a move to land ‘Walter Jjohnson. Another is that he will trade Slim Caldwell. And so on. Spring Tour Vetoed. President Comiskey of the White Sox is quoted as saying that he does- 't favor any spring exhibition. games for his team, with the Giants or any- body else. This will be disappointing to a number of citles that had” been led to believe the two teams would make a spring tour and that they would see them in action. Diplomacy. John McGraw, diplomatic and cour- teous, paid Miller Huggins some fine compliments upon the * latter's_ap- pointment as manager of the Yan- kees. McGraw doesn’t meant to vield his position as king of the walk in baseball in New York, but he real- izes that if Huggins can make the Yankees a winner it will benefit both clubs _in. the -metropolis. McGraw says he * ‘would like thing better than to play the Ya s in the world’s series next' fall, which may be an Indication of how he feela abont his own chances for the coming sea- son.

MAUDE A. KING Marked First Effort: of State to In- troduce Evidence in the Means Trial | { I Concord N. €., Nov. 28.—First forts of the stale to introduce dence designed.to prove a moti the killing of Mrs. Maude A. wealthy Chicago widow, at Bla er Spring the night of last Augus were blocked by the defense tonigh at the trial of her | former business manager, County court Solicitor Huyden Clement announced that the prosecution relied upon W ard J. Rockefeller, managing director of a Chicago hotel, to testify that M King had told him a short time be- | fore her death that she and her estate were under the. “absolute control of Means,” bat that she expected soon Lo | free herself and do as she pleased.’ Superior Judge Cline ruled, however, that Rockefeiler could relate to the jury only such statements as Mrs. King made to him in the presence of Means. The admissibility of this was argued and decided while the jury was excluded from the court roem. When it returned. Rockefeller testified that Means, Mrs. King and a party were at his hotel from April un- til early July and that Mrs. King never left the hotel unless either Means or Henry Deitch, described as| Means' “watchman” were with her. | Deitch, the witness alsp testified | watched the hotel lobby when Means | was absent to see that Mrs. King did | not leave the hotel. Means upon learning that the hotell manager had been talking with M King, Rockefeller said, warned him | not to speak to the woman any more | nad threatened to move the entire par- | ty from the hotel. I'm. preparing to spring a will that | will surprise the United States and | 1 don’t want anybedy to talk to her, was the explanation given by Means, the witness declared. A copy of a secbnd will was found in a raid on Means' New \O k d.pflrt» ment. _Under its terms, i Mrs. King would have reccived about $2,000,000 additional from the estate of her late husband. In the Means party Rockefeller said, were Mrs. King" mother, Mrs. Anna L. Robinsen, her sister. Mrs. Mary C. Melvin, Mrs. Gas- ton B. Means her daughter and nurse, and Mrs. Means' father, W. T. Pat- | terson. Each month, he said. a check for $1,600 came to Mrs. King and out of it the hotel bills of all the party except Mrs. Robinson and Mrs. Meivin were paid. In forbidding him to talk with Mrs. King, the witness said, Means told him he might talk “to Old Seventy-six” all he wanted to. Means explained that “Old Seventy-six” was Mrs. King’ mother, She is 76 years old. The witness said he afterwards had one more con- versation with Mrs. King and “on in- structions” from her agreed not.to speak to her again. On cross examination Rockefeller said he allowed Means and his party to remain at his hotel.. after he had learned of the alleged state of affairs. He said Mrs. King left on July 8 and that Means and Deitch left some time later. Rockefeller's testimony came at the end of the first day of presentation of the state’s case and the defense ex- pected to resume his cross-examina- tion tomorrow, Judge Kline having an- nounced that court would sit Thanks- giving day. Means purchased a 25-calibre auto matic pistol several days before Mr: King’s death, according to M F. Richie, a local hardware man. who was among the first of the state’s witness- es. Richie said Means had desired to | get a 32 calibre pistol, but he had none | in stock. Captain W. S. Bingham of Concord testified that Means. at the time he! bought the small pistol, said he wanted | a larger one because he thought it was safer. Captain Bingham also toid | how he and Means, Mrs. King and Af- ton Means, brother of the defendant had gone target shooting late on the afternoon of the tragedy. Means and the woman were alone for a short time, he said, and he heard a shot and Means called the others back. They found the woman without apparent signs of life. Her ankle appeared broken, he sai@ 'Dr. P. R. McFadden, a local physician, described the frac- ture as probably having resulted from sepping on a /root. : Other witnésses described the scenes around the spring. and events before and after Mrs, King's death. Questions to State’s witnesses by the defense on cross examiration were tak- en oy some to indicate that an effort would be made to show that Mrs. King might bave met death when the pistol fell. “either from her hand or from a notch in.a tree.
