SCHAIFER TITLE KUMMER TO RIDE EPINARD SATURDAY COLGATE OFF TO MEET NEBRASKA - GIANTS millllllllllUmnunillilKlilKlllinm.nm WEEK-END GRID CONTESTS WILL FURNISH BIG THRILLS Yale-Dartmouth Match At tracts Most Attention in the East-Betting Odds Are About Even. Br Tht Aiilttd PriH. New York, Oct. 16. Sensing an other upset, Interest in the week-end frldiron contests has veered sharply tt New Haven where Yale and Dart mouth will clash. The Green swept through Its pre. llmtnary fames with a majesty that has fathered confidence In an ability to "go out and clean up" this sea on. Yale, standing In the path, must be destroyed. Yale, with its (treat squad of 1313 disrupted by graduation and In eligibility rules, has not been Im pressive In Its reconstruction. The stage was set for a Dartmouth vic tory. But preparations in Hanover were a bit too feverish and the confidence Overflowed the campus and found Its way Into print and into New Haven. Yale was warned, and a team with a football tradition, regardless of its physical make-up will be hard to defeat after it has been warned of Impending disaster. Now, both elevens will trot on the field In a big game atmosphere. The spiritual element will be 'added to the physical, and Yale has so much confidence in its own flRhting quali ties that odds, once leaning toward- Dartmouth, have now been declared oven. Ths big punch of the Green arid ens of the first candidates for all honors" to arise this year, Is "Swede" Oserlander, a lineman re formed Into a halfback. He is a 200-pound triple threat player with 10 touchdowns already attesting his prowess. In addition to the ordinary qualifications, the Nfjrdlc menace to Ell is credited with a ham-like hand, stiff arm like a board and inter fering ability of a high order. So Yale prepares for "Swede." If he passes the Blue test he will be entitled to further consideration as one of the great backfield men of the year. Dartmouth will meet Pond and Cottle, who ran through the Eli scrubs for touchdowns yesterday, and Eddie Bench, converted Into a quarterback and picked as the pos sible successor to Bill Mallory In the Yale scheme for the season. Other camps begin to announce the 'tout for the seasons" which op posing coaches read and sometimes sniff at. Army reports Baxter out of the Notre Dame contest and Quarterback Terrill of Rutgers will be out of the Cornell game. Aulich, a substitute linesman, had a bone in his ankle broken at Columbia.

This was disclosed toMay by a source close to Commissioner Landis and established from the first time the real reason why apart from their own denials, Krisch, Kelly and Young were cleared in the Investiga tion which preceded the world series. According to this source, O'Con-' nell's story of what happened before and after he approached Sand dur ing the game at the Polo grounds September 27 was diametrically op posite to that related by Sand and also the accounts given by the oth ers called before Commissioner Landis. Asked by Landis what he did af ter offering Sand 4.r00 to "throw" the game, O'Connell was said to have related that he walked to the batting cage and there told Kelly what had happened. Then, O'Connell said, he took part in batting practice. According to Sand, however. O'Connell did not approach any oth er player at once but went to the bench and sat atone in one corner. VANCE REPLIES Would Help to Modify Yolstead ' Act, He States Replying to a questionnaire sent out by E. L. G. Hohentlial or oum Manchester, leader of tne dry forces In Connecticut, Johnstone Vance, democratic nominee ror con gress ;in this district, has mailed a etter setting rortn nis desire 10 kb the present "dry" law modified, ana questioning whether the enactment of civil service, would Improve con ditions in liquor law enforcement. Mr. Hohenthal also inquired inio the candidate's personal habits as reeards the "dry" law and was In formed by Mr. Vance that he is not an habitual drinker, but providing conditions are right will take a drink of hard liquor. Vance's letter to Hohenthal fol lows: "Mr. E. L. G. Hohenthal, "South Manchester, Conn. "Dear Sir: , "Tour questionnaire .regarding my personal habits and my stand towards liquor received. I thor oughly appreciate that endorsement, the possibility of which you hint at in your letter, by the prohibition party might mean the addition of several votes to my column, but 1 am not going to misrepresent myself for the sake of those votes. "I am not a habitual drinker. Providing conditions are right I will take a drink of hard liquor. I have too much regard for my own stomach to Imbibe of Illicit stuff if offered it. "I cannot see how Civil Service would affect the honesty of Pro hibition Agents. There is many an honest man ho could not pass a Civil Service tfst and there is many a dishonest one who could. Law enforcement should be in the hands of honest men. The Civil Service farce, as it has been in some in stances, would not guarantee honesty any more than the present method of choosing agents. "A law has been enacted by what Is represented to be majority choice. That law should be obeyed. But if I can bring about, or help to bring about, a modification of it I shall do so because I believe that many per sons, although abstainers themselves, are convinced that the stringent rul ings of the Volstead act, enforcing the Eighteenth Amendment, are a mistake. That. belief, I admit, may be In error, but I am willing to abide by it. "Sincerely yours. "JOHNSTONE VANCE."
