Yale Football Coaches
Notified Not to Report;
Schedule Is Canceled
New Haven, Conn., July 21. T. A.
D. (Tad) Jones, Dr. Bull and other
football coaches at Yale have been
notified that their services will not
be" required next fall. The order to
the coaches is supplemented by the
announcement that Yale had can
celed its football schedule. It is also
declared that the Elis are making no
provision for even Freshman sports
and that no Freshman football coach
has been appointed,
tv Yale's announcement comes in the
wake of Harvard's and a similar
pronunciamento may be expected
any day trom Princeton. In fact, the
Tigers already have abandoned their
football schedule. Iq view of the ac
tion of the Big Three, the chief bur
den of the National Collegiate Athle
tic Association's congress, at Wash
ington, on August 2, will be to con
vince the trio of the inadvisibility ol
their action.
Practically all of the other colleges
already have pledged themselves to
the continuation of sport. Owing to
an error -we stated yesterday that
Cornell's faculty had voted against
resuming football and other sports.
Cornell has taken its place with those
in favor of sport and will make an
unusual effort to get out more men
than in peace times.

„• - ROVING JIM
A few days ago some one discussed the various shifts that ball players
frequently make. Any number of them have shifted and drifted from one
club to another, but the main wanderer of the field is Jim yaughn, of the
Cubs. Roving Jim has every one else in the game tied to a post. The Cub
80Uthj#aw has been in baseball eleven years. In that time he has played
upon eleven different teams in no less than eight different leagues.
His line of march follows: Texas League, South Texas League, Arkan
sas League, New York State, South Atlantic, American Association, Am
erican and National.
In 1908 Roving Jim tolled in four leagues—The American, the Arkan
sas, the New York State and the South Atlantic.
It can be safely and sanely and sedately said that Vaughn has covered
more ground than any other player in the game.
After a restling existence Vaughn seems to have settled down to a
homestead at last. This makes his fifth season with the Cubs, and under
the Cpok county banner he has been pitching winning ball. .
SHIFTS AND STARS
While a shift from one club to another frequently improves a player's
work, most of the leading stars have always fought under one flag. Hans
Wagner has served eighteen years in Pittsburgh. Matty gave his pitching
career to New York. Ty Cobb has only known Detroit as a big league
home. Alexander looks to be wfth the Phillies for life. Walter Johnson
has never left Washington, Ed Walsh only kn.ows the White Sox for his
home. On the more or less contrary, Lajoie, Cy Young, Collins, Evers,
Waddell, Speaker, Jackson and others have moved about—but not because
they had gone stale upon any particular range.
Jack Dillon was one of the few boxers more than willing to meet all
comers without haggling over the bulk of the receipts—which explains, in
one way, why he was also one of the first of the ring contingent to enlist.
THE UPSET
Yes, wasn't It a shame
The way that Russia.qult?
She couldn't play the game
She couldn't field and hit.
But out Galicia way,
Along the bloody slope.
Somebody in the play
Has scrambled up the dope.
THE OLD DIP
The hook slide with the shining spike whirled into the bag may be the
most effective type.
But for general observation we prefer the Hal Chase brand, Hal is
one of the very few ball players left who likes the old dip, the head fore
most dive>or the bag, skidding merrily along on his chest. And, in ad
dition to being an Inspiring spectacle, Hal gets away with this system as
often as. the others do. Chase is a hard man to tag, for he is still quick
as a panther In eluding trouble. He is no young kid, with thirteen sea
sons of campaigning to his credit, but he is still one of the best base run
ners in baseball.
In the last Fed year Benny Kauff and Lee Magee were far In front,
with Hal Chase and Eddie Brush well back, both under .300. But last sea
sons Chase led his league, and this season finds Roush out in front around
.3 40, with Chase back around .300 and moving upward. Roush looks to
be one of the star ball players of the last five years, one of the best to In
vade the field within that period. ,
RIGHT
Sir: As I understand it, the Hlndenburg line can repulse any straight
bucking or end rushing, but can be driven back by the forward pass attack
where the forward passers are armed with airplanes. Am I right?

Lumber
Transportation
Difficulties
Builders should
not delay provid
ing for lumber sup
plies.
Lumber buyers
usully want material
on short notice.
Just now we can make
prompt shipments. No
one knows how long this
condition may continue.
Daniel Willard, presi
dent of B. & O. R. R.
claims that it will take 75
per cent of the railroad
capacity of the country to
win the war.
This will leave only 25
per cent, for business pur
poses.
Lumber has made but
slight advances in price.
Now is the time to build.
After the war there will
be a world-wide demand
for construction material
This subject demands
your serious consider
ation.
