Coaches Are Missing;
May Be in the War
New Haven, Conn., Aug. 31.—Yale
rowing officials await eagerly a letter
from Coach Guy Nickalls relative to
his plans fdr the fall and. possibly, the
winter and spring. Nickalls signed an
agreement to catch at Yale the com
ing year, his plans including return
ing to this country in October for the
fall coaching and coming across the
Atlantic again about February 1 to
remain till the close of the rowing
season in June.
Fear is felt that both he and his
brother, Vivian Nickalls. the Univer
sity of Pennsylvania coach, are In
volved in the war and may not be
available for at least the fall practice.
It is believed that they will be
found among the English volunteer
troops and a statement of their plans
Is expected soon.
In case Guy Nickalls does not re
turn to Yale this fall It is likely that
the rowing committee will give charge
of the coaching to Eugene Giannlnl,
freshman coach last year.

Crucial Test Games This Week;
Teutons Must Be Routed
Reading Plays at Allentown Today; Harrisburg Must Win
Eight Out of Ten Games; While Castle's Crowd
Will Have to Win All Games
With a lead of three games at the
opening of the final week In the Tri-
State, Harrisburg has the best chance
to win the pennant. The flag is not
likely to be cinched, however, until
the series with Allentown on Wednes
day ,and Thursday is ended and the
final' result may not be known until
Labor Day.
Manager Johnny Castle has secured
a transfer of the games to-day and
to-morrow, and Reading will play at
Allentown. The Teutons cannot af
ford to lose a game with Reading.
Manager Hoffman denied the reports
that his team is giving up, and before
leaving Harrisburg last week, request
ed that a close watch be kept on the
final series between Reading and Al
lentown, saying that Reading would
take one game.
CockiU's crew meets Lancaster to
day and to-morrow at Island Park.
Two victories are necessary. Should
Harrisburg and Allentown meet in the

Yale Makes Bid
For Army-Navy Game
New Haven, Conn., Aug. 31.—Yale
13 making an aggressive effort to se
cure the Army-Navy game for the
new bowl, which will be finished at
Yale Field in November. The Yale
football officials urge the fact that the
structure will accommodate some
72,000 people, about 25,000 more than
can be placed In other stands in this
country, and that the only possible
disadvantage to the selection of the
place is its distance from Annapolis.
This, it is believed, can be over
come by a modification of the existing
rule that prohibits the teams and
students of the Naval Academy from
remaining away from Annapolis over
night at the time of the annual game
with the Army. The War and Navy
Departments might secure a relax
ation of the rule or it could be over
come by congressional action, it is be
lieved.
Yale has not urged the new bowl as
the place for the game because of the
slight uncertainty that has existed
over the completion of the Structure
till recently.
It is now sure that the sunken
stadium will be ready by November 15
for the large crowd which, the fol
lowing week, will pack it for the Yale-
Harvard game. The Army-Navy game
will be played the Saturday after the
Yale-Harvard match and the Yale
howl Is regarded here as easily the
most desirable spot.
The Army officials have given assur
ances that its choice would be satis
factory to them and Yale football au
thorities are hopeful that the field may
be selected annually for the event.

RARRISBURG TELEGRAPH
Teutons would put them out of the
race. The Ponies must romp home

lead.

Yes, men actually wonder why
the quality of King Oscar Cigars

usual for a cigar to be regularly
good for 23 years when so many
brands come and go (emphasis on
go) in half the time and less.
Well—

King Oscar 5 c Cigars
