CARMjAN For throe hours nnd clRhtccn minutes n brace of lipspoctnclpd members of the Qrdrr of the Cue engaged in bnttle. Fifty-ono times the word "safety" nlmost Inroherentlj" was announced. Fifty-one times the bespectacled heroes refused to tnkc a cbnnee find scatter the nppnrently helpless ivories. In the menntime nee nnd youth were jigaRp(l in picltiiift off nil the available aVrripples," but refused persistently to take the big smash. There must be nn end to nil Raines, nnd finis rapidly was beinjr written upon this one, vrhlrh was played at the Parkway HiillillnK Inst nipjht. With a dlfflcult shot in front of him and the ivories well bunched, Louis D. Krcuter, youth, Razed at his 124 total, blinked as he saw a 110 pasted be neath the nnme of Jerome KcorIi, nged, gave the massed ivories another once over, then called his twenty-fifth "safety." The Fntnl Six Kcosh proceeded to pocket three, had the spheres well scattered nnd triumph appeared certain. The fourth hnll also was pocketed. Referee Peterson in his arctic voice Called "four," nnd the required five ' were in .front of the veternn Kor1i. The crowd was prepnred to depart when Youthful Krcuter interrupted: "Mr. Referee, I protest thel last point. Sir. KcorIi failed to callthe ball." 'Tour protest Is recognised ; the point does not count nnd the table is yours,'! replied the ever-frigid, exacting C. C. Peterson, Then Youth Krcuter went to the table, snared the required point and the match was over. f The six ball wns the turning point in this marathonic exhibition nnd meant defeat for Keoph, triumph for Kreuter. I Kreutcr's Fourth Straight f This represented the fourth strniRlit triumph for Kreuter. Last Wednesday evening Kreuter was in last place, with three defeats out of ns mnny starts. IJIs. sensational reversal of form has carried him into fourth place, only n ' Knlf game behind KcorIi nnd n complete game in the rear of Allen for second place. Kreuter is plnyinR as strong a Rome as many in the tournament just now. He plays Fink this nfternoon nnd should rcRlster his fifth straight. .

Dec. 10. The I-af-nyetto College faculty athletic commit tee will hold nn imporlnnt meeting to day. Among the itema to be discussed will be that pertaining to eligibility o Joe Dumoe, Lafayette'R star end, who lust Saturday played with the Phoenlx vllle rlub against Cnnsliohoeken. When questioned Dumoe stnted that he had played with the Phoenlxvllle cbib Inst Saturday because it wns ri recognized independent amateur team. "t plnyed with Phoenlxville," said Dumoe, "nnd by so doing cannot see how I forfeited my nmnteur standing. For playing with the other college athletes I received my expenses. How this makes me n professional I am nt loss to understand." The reports thnt Penn would drop Lafayette from its football schedule for next season if the local institution per mitted Dumoe to play was the sub ject of much criticism among the stu dents nnd townspeople. Why Pctin should come forth and virtually siiy thnt Dumoe must he declared a professional for playing in Inst Saturday's contest is. a deep mystery. 1IAHTKKN I.UAOUK Camden... 11 1 .000 ltilmir. , . 4 7 ,M flrrmnnt'n fl K ,B4S N.

THE present trend is, obviously, toward cigars of the milder type having full Havana fillers like Robt. Burns. In this connection the rapidly increasing popularity of Robt. Burns is worth a moment's thought. In achieving mildness, coupled with Havana fra grance, Robt. Burns has steadily upheld the Havana tradition which no true smoker would dispense with willingly. The natural vigor of his full Havana filler is tempered to just the right degree of fragrant mildness yet free from excess strength. Fine hand workmanship goes into Robt. Burns. His leaf is rolled by men who understand how good cigars are made. Experienced dealers know the futility of offering "just-as-goods" for Robt. Burns. But let your own smoke palate be the judge. Mild Robt. Burns is bound to back up good words with good deeds. Robt.
