Umpire Hawkins explained that the ball was right on the line when Markoft was tackled and al- though he did crawl some it made no difference. as a touchdown is made when any part of the ball touches the lina. The Rulkeley men seemed very Jistrustfol of the officials, though the latter were fair to all alike and showed no faveritism whatever.

Coach McKay was right in making them stick to the agree- ment. In the first two quarters the ball see- sawed back and forth, neither side be- ing able to gain a telling advantage. As the half closed it looked as though the game would end in a scorelass tie. In the last half first Bulkeley, then the ‘Academy sprinted a little, then they both relapse® to their former pace. and they were punting back and forth as the game ended. . Bill Ringland got off some splendid punts during the game, easily outpunting his Bulkeley rival. He also essayed a field goal from the 3§ yard line in the third period but failed, the.ball striking one of the goal posts a few feet below the crossbars. Captain Suplickl proved to be a tower of strength at left tackle and his absence was felt in the third.period, when he was forced to retire owing to injuries. % This will g0 down in, the records as a Bulkeley veam.as they won a game and the other was a drawn battle, and they should be very thankful for get- ting away with it. Saturday night the N. F, A. students formed a.line on Main_street and pa- raded up Broadway to the campus, where they circled around a huge bon- fire and sang songs and listened to speeches from » the plavers of both teams. The boys spoke in an eloquent manner and the students listened re- spectfully with nary a raspberry. Coach McKay told the students that his team had improved 200 per cent. since the first game and they deserve much credit for their work this season. Mr. McKav has turned out a good team, considering the raw material he had to work .with.-and the lack of a scrub team to practice against. He overcame obstacles this season which would have caused many coaches to give up in disgust. He has every rea- son to be proud of his season's work. The lineup: N. F. A, Bulkeley. Young . MecCarthy FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIA SATURDAY MARKET. New York, Nov. 22—Trading in stocks today was dull and altogether srofessional. The only interesting or fiverting features were presented by weveral highly speculative issues in which further covering of short con- iracts was under way. Foremost amonz these shares were Seneral Motors, Pierce Arrow, Cruci- ble Steel and some of the seasoned oils at extreme gains of two to ten points. This advantage in several instances @as materially reduced at the close. in the case of the petroleums, im provement was traceable to other than technical . conditions, there being indi- cations of another substantial advance in prices of crude and refined products. The active list was one to three points higher at its best, but rails and coppers were inclined to sag. Gains sredominated at the close, U. S. Steel ind several of the motor specialties then attaining highest prices of the session. Sales amounted to 375,000 thareés. There was considerable activity in sonds. esnecially Liberty issues, where Mirther selling was noted at new low Juntitlane. Total sales (par value) ae- reesated $12.650,000. Old U. S. bonds wers unchanged on call during the woek 1t was expected that the recent liqui- fon in the stock market would be reflected in today's statement of the earing house. The report was dis- appointing. however, in that actval loans showed a decrease of slightly ess than $65000.00, with a decrease > almast $10,000,000 in excess reserves, while reserves of member banks in the leral reserve banks were decreased »y. abeut $12,000,000.

McGuiness was_the shining light of the Orange and Black and his line plunging and end running were too much for the Academy. Bulkeley had the intérference, a fea- ture that was lacking in the Academy's football tactics. Markoff’s 30 yard run through the Bulkeley team along the sidelines was the prettiest piece of football work seen on the campus this year. His line plunge for the touchdown that tied the score was another piece of brilliant work. field and spoiled the Academy’s chances of scoring when Case and Whitney dropped two perfect forward passes with a clear field in front of them. X While Whitney played a very good game, he at times showed poor judg- ment in choosing his plays. Once with the ball on the 25 yard line directly in front of Bulkeley's goal he tried a for- ward pass instead of a _drop kick which would have beaten Bulkeley. Johnny Young and Otho Chase play- ed their usual good game but did not have much chance to shine. After practicing three weeks on trick plays, only one was used during the game by Whitney, who resorted to practically straight football. Captain . Suplicki was back in the game for the first time since his in- juries, and his work at tackle was as though he had been playing the whole season. The Bulkeley crowd had their nerce with them, as usual, especially a lad by the name of Dondero. in demanding that they should have the right to choose the officials of the game after they chose them in New London. The usual crowd of New Londoners were present and had off their usual rough stuff for which they are noted. We like that crowd—ves, like a cat does hot soap. There was only one fight, which was quietly settled by Officer Luke Riley. Well, after all is said and done, both teams deserved to win. but we rather see the old Alma Mater bring home the bacon. Let's go. YALE FUMBLES RESPONSIBLE FOR HARVARD’S VICTORY Harvard undergraduates, back from the war, Saturday scored in the sports of peace time. a football victory over Yale, their ancient rivals. Playing before 50,000 spectators in the Sta- dium, which was crowded as never before, the Crimson eleven triumphed 10 to 3. The game, marked by several striking plays was tne climax of the first football season at Harvard un- der the new coaching regime of Rob- ert T. Fishdr. It was the first time in 20 years that a Yale team had gone down to defeat in its_two big games with Princeton and Harvard. In a seasoniof advanced develop- ment of the forward pass and the field goal as weapons of football attack, Saturday’s game stands out with no- table instances of each. Spectators will long remember the field goal kicked by Braden for Yale's only score in the Jast period. The ball carried 53 yards with a 25-mile wind through the center of the Harvard goal, after Braden had booted it with his line bending under a strong Crimson at- tack. Scarcely less notable was Caser's touchdown for Harvard gained in the second period. through the surprise accomplishment of a forward pas: The Harvard star, catching a pa: thrown 16 yards by Quarterback Fel ton, run from Yale's 22-vard line to| the' goal using all his qualities of | elusiveness and. speed to avert over- taking by the Yale pursuers. | The contest was staged urider low ering skies, which dimmed somewhat the' riot of color in the ampihheatre and wooden stands. The stadium was crowded to an extént never etualled previou: entrances being closed to make additional seat accommodations and the wooden stands at the open fend of the horseshoe being enlarged over any previous year. The 50,000 persons included men and women of highest standing In the country’s business. and - social life, many of whom had come great distances for the renewal of the classic. The last meeting between Yale and Harvard on the gridiron was in 1916 in which Yale won, 6 to 3, had marked an interruption in the football suc- cesses scored by the Crimson under Haughton's coaching. Harvard's victor? under the, new Fisher regime was the tenth time that Harvard had won from vale in ‘37 games, five of which were tied. The contest to which Yale's fumbles cost the Blue the advantage of rushing_ strength is shown in a sum- mary of the play. Yale gained 207 vards in' 57 rushes, as compared with 32 yards advanced in 28 Crimson rushes. Harvard lost 12 yards in 5 negative attempts, and Yale forfeited 12" yards in two unsuccessful at- tempts. Kicking honors were virtually even, the several men kicking for each team averaging 33 yards. Yale. losing the bal so frequently by furfbles, punted \out onl’ 13 times, as compared with 20 Harvard kicks from scrimmage. | Running back of punts gave Harvard |a total of 39 yards, and Yale 75. But much of the time the receiving player either elected a fair catch or was downed without gain. The forward pass, medium of Ca- sey’s successful touchdown thrust, gave Harvard 64 yards in six attempts three of which were successtul. BROWN TRIMS NEW HAMPSHIRE BY SCORE OF 6-0 Brown defeated New Hampshire State at Providence, Saturday 6 to 0. The Brunonians had the edge on the visttors all the way and several times when other scores were:almost with- in grasp New Hampshire thwarted them -or the touchdown was missed through a_fumble. Dutch Connor ~'was the shining light in the New Hampshire back- fleld. Brown's only score was made in the second period when following a series of line backs by Jemail and Moody with a fifteen yard penalty on New Hampshire. Williams on an end vlay shot over for a score. “Lebanon vs. Baltic.

Long Run Beats Chicago. A brilliant sixty yard dash by Al- len Davey, who entered the game as asubstitute quarterback in the last three minutes of play gave Wiscon- sin a 10 to 3 victory over Chicago on Saturday. Davey squirmed _through the entire Chicago team for the touchdown. Both teams had scored field goals from the 25 yard lines during the first half and until the closing min- utes of the game the struggle gave every indicaation of ending in a 3 to 3 tie. Then almost before the big crowd realized what had happened, Davey caught a Chicago punt on Wisconsin's ~ forty yard line, and shaking off at least seven tacklers, sped across Chicago’s goal.

DID ANCIENT ROME HAVE WIRELESS STATION “Wireless telegraphy is new; wi less communication is as old as Bibli. cal times.” With this statement the National Geographic Society quotes from a communication by John A. Kingman, who sets forth the interesting theory that the island of Capri was an im- all retary Redfield, as the new member of the Cabinet. perial wireless station of ancient Rome., “We know that the ancients sig- naled in various ways and over long distances,” he says. '“They signaled by beacon fires, by beacon smoke, hy pigeons, by flags, and by shouting from one sentinel to another. “Lighthouses are as old .as _the earliest chapters of the Bible. Bea- con fires and beacon smoke were commonly used by the early Greeks, and there was no reason why the more practical Roman should not have employed improved methods, such as heliographing. “We do know that the the siege of Syracuse by Marcellus mirrors were employeq by Archimedes; and though we may doubt the burning of ves- sels from shore by mirrors, as stated G that occasion, we can appreciate the blinding effect of many mirrors on the eyes of the navigators of the at- tacking vesséls. That is what proba- bly happened during that conflict. At any rate, it shows that the great Archimedes, at least, had found some use for mirrors other than the usual one. “In imperial times the Romans had mirrors large enough to reflect the en- tire person; they ‘even had mirrors of glass backeq with tin instead of quicksilver. ‘Signalling was certainly a common military practice among the ancients, and ancient writers, such as Virgil, Aeschylus, and Herodotus, frequently alluded to it. “An interesting case of long-dis- tance signalling by relaying is men- tioned by Heredotus, in which . ap- pears that certain tidings were sent to Xerxes in Asia by means of a line of beacon fires arranged through the Greek islands. N “The ancients went further than simply announcing some . prearranged message; they had codes and sent long messages. The Greeks signaled on one occasion 100 miles at one jump. This was Mt. Chigri, 1,698 feet. to Mt. Athos, 6,500 feet. “Gallu’s Hand Book of Military Signalling states that ‘under favorable conditions the distance to which mes- sages may be sent and receiveq is |only. limited by the curvature of the earth;’ also, that ‘square mirrors are better than round. ones only because things harmlessly Here is a clothes washer charming ferinine thingo—ithings ycu never trust to a rub-boar them without the tear.
