room-filling heat or just enough to take off the chill.
There's onlyone sure way, though, of getting absolutely
satisfactory results. Use Atlantic Rayolight Oil. Don't
accept unknown, unbranded kerosenes. Rayolight Oil
is so highly refined and scientifically purified that it
gives a better, steadier heat—and without charring the
wick. Buy it where you see the sign: "Atlantic Rayo

COLLEGE FOOTBALL
ON TO-MORROW'S
SEASON
New York, Nov. 23. —The waning
of the Eastern college football sea
son is indicated by the decrease in
the number of games scheduled for
the final Saturday of the month. Sev
eral of the more important elevens
have completed their allotment of
contests and others will close the
present gridiron campaign with to
morrow's play. In a few cases teams
with Thanksgiving Day matches will
devote Saturday to practice and all
of these circumstances tend to re
duce the list of games as compared
with those of preceding week-ends.
While keen inter-college rivalry
will mark almost every contest
scheduled, two games stand out as
promising high class and exciting
play in the meeting of Brown and
Dartmouth and Notre Dame vs.
Washington and Jefferson. The
Army team will also face a formid
able opponent in Boston College;
Pennsylvania has an easier task in
playing the Carlisle Indians, while
'he Yale and Princeton freshmen
elevens and several of the canton
ment teams are down for what are
expected to be hard fought gridiron
battles.
Teams Evenly Matched
There does not appear to be any
great advantage for either Dart
mouth or Brown on the eve of their
game which will mark a renewal of
the athletic relations between the
two colleges. Both teams have had
a hard season during which they
have played a strong and consistent
game, considering the handicaps un
der which football has been con
ducted at the two institutions this
fall. Kach eleven has been forced
to bow to one or more opposing
teams during the present schedule
of games but whether in victory or
defeat the players have shown foot
ball power and a thorough know
ledge of the game which leads to
the conclusion that when they face
on the field the combinations will be
evenly matched and that the result
will hinge to a great extent upon the
breaks of the play.
The work of both Notre Dame and
■Washington and Jefferson all season
has stamped them as teams of unu
sual strength and the meeting to
morrow should produce one of the
very best games of the day. The
first eastern appearance of the In
dian collegians resulted in the defeat
of the Army team at West Point but
whether Notre Dame can duplicate
this feat against Washington and
Jefferson remains to be seen. The
work of the latter eleven against
Pittsburgh and West Virginia, while
impressive, resulted in defeat and
the playing of a third hard game in

Pcnn State Beginners Run Up
String of Victories
This Season
State College, Pa., Nov. 23.—Unde
feated in the last three years and
with twenty-one victories to their
credit, Penn-State's stalwart fresh

the University of Pittsburgh year

realize that the Pantherites will not

their seven games. Their opponents
have not crossed the goal line, and
are credited with only three points,
so far. In the absence of "Dutch"

the opponents are of the caliber of
Pittsburgh, West Virginia and Notre

Army Meets Strong Team
While the Army will find Boston
Collcga, coached by Charles Brick
ley, a combination which will re
quire close watching it would appear
as though the Cadets in their final
game of the year should emerge vic
tors. The same is true of Pennsyl
vania in its meeting with the Car
lisle Indians. The Quakers, with
the Cornell game less than a week
away, will not be inclined to take
chances, but even under these con
ditions should be able to hold Car
lisle safe. On the season's record
the Yale freshmen are certain to be
favorites over Princeton's first year
players. The leading games of the
day, with the 1916 scores where the
same colleges met last season, are
as follows:
