jdays a = e. which threatened to mar
'j the spirit manifested in all the ath
/' It tic contests participated in by the
team. The fri Ehmen refused to wear
pkull caps', which distinguished them j
from the upper classmen, and the
Sophomores were read;.- to enforce the
?'rule, but the matter was settled by a
compromise and rooting rallies have
been held as If nothing had happened.

King Football Is crowned supreme
(o-day. Culminating a season flint, for
excitement, lias seldom been equaled,
the two big trump cards o? the yenr
Will be played to-day, when Vale and
Harvard clash on Soldiers' Field at
Cambridge, und the Army charges the
Navy on Franklin Field, Philadelphia.
A safo prediction Is that upwards
of 50,000 persons will pay homage tu
the spirit of Amorlcun rivalry at
those iwo games alone, Altogothci
there, are hull' a hundred football biit
llcs scheduled in different parts of
the country, ami the vast throne that
will witness tin- entire array will
number well into the millions.
Distinct contrasts arc presented in
the big star attractions. In the one
cusc. Yale and Harvard will go to
war with an oven slate, so far as last
year's contest?a 0 to 0 tie?la con
eerned. on the other hand, the Army
Navy same presents a light for re
vengc by the cadets, the Navy gout
having gored the Army bulldog l.y u
to (J during the last onslaught.
One fact that is noted with pleas?
ure by devotees of the grent gridiron
game Is thut in neither one of the
bin games will there be a regular
porfortner kept from the line-up be?
cause of injuries or any other rea?
son. Tlie teams will enter the frays
with their best men all in their allot
ted positions, and the losers can havu
no excuses to offer. Barring the In?
jection of that sinister element, luck,
the best teams will win, and the- sea?
son of It'll will come to a close with
glorious eclat.
With a dry held to play on, Vale
may possess a slight edge over Har?
vard. The JJlue has a Woll-orgunlzcd
attack, built around innchlno-Uke
teamwork, while the Harvard offcnslvu
strength lies in one man, Percy Wen?
dell, and the ability 01' the Crimson
linemen to open up holes for him.
Wendell has shown himself lo be an
unusual "mudlark." He kueps Ida
footing In tin- mire bettor probably
than any other man playing this year.
A dry lleld will help Yale in the
kicking department. In this Yale
seems to have far the best of It. Camp
and Howe arc both reliable punters,
and while Fclton, of Harvard, la good,
it doe-s not appear that he can stack
up with tin: two 13H8. On drop and
plucu-klcking, 11 is all Yale. Howo
ilgures to be dangerous whenever the
Itluo gets u itutii Harvard's iblrty-llve
yard line.
A great battle will be put up by the
end.-. It is conceded that Sit 111 White,
of Princeton, bus 0110 All-Amorlcan
wins position cinched, if uny one man
in to-day's game shows head and
shoulders above the other three "ho
will without doubt got the other Hank
assignment. If It Is oven-Steven, then
I Captain Daly, of Dartmouth, will land
the honor. "Bud .Smith." Harvard's
last year All-American end, Is opposed
to-day by Uomolsler, who starred for
Yult In the Princeton battle. At the
other :!d,>, Felton find A very will light
it out.
Centn will develop another dash of
Titans. Huntington, who was moved'
to I he plvolul position or the Crimson I
ream from fullback, was a revelation
to the Harvard coaches. His opponent
to-day, Kctcben, has been mentioned,
nlohg with lilucmepthni. 'of Princeton,
for the All-Ainorlcan snuppor-back Job.
mid If Huntington can out play 'his man
to-day, Harvard Is assured of another
11 .in '.'the year's ?reutest team.''
I i... Army-Navy name is expected to
dlrplay two widely divergent styles of
attack The middles have shown great
liptlltldc at the new, open style of
play this year, Captain Dolton llgurlng
us the revolving point of practically
all 1 ho trick plays, of which the An?
napolis macblno has a lot. The Army
has shown rcmurkable ability, to gala

Washington University, which meets
Arkansas; at St. Louis, has one of the
greatest teams in the history of tho

GLOWING REPORTS
HOT EXAGGERATED
Henry W. Savage's "'Girl of
Golden West" Is Powerful
and Dramatic Play.
[Sfioclal to Tho Times-Dispatch.]
Washington, jj c\, .November 24.?
Nothing that has bee:i printed In tho
Richmond papers concerning Henry W.
Savage's "Ulrl of the Golden West" ha3
been exaggerated. To-night's perform?
ance at th" Belaseo Theatre In Wash?
ington proved conclusively that one
of the most powerful and dramatic
plays of the lait few decades could be
.-et to music by an Italian master and
still remain a gripping and earth-roll
ing drum*. it i.< Indeed wonderful
that Puccini, the man who composed
the marvelous melodies and wrote the
amazing orchestration of "Madam But?
terfly" and of "La Boheme," could take,
as he has done, the virile, almost crude,
certainly realistic material supplied by
Belasco's famous picture of the West
of the golden days, and set i! to such
speaking, breathing, living vividness
of musical coloring.
Prom the first curtain, disclosing the
crowded saloon, through tho terrific
scone In the second act, when tile blood
drops upon ti;e outstretched hand of
the sheriff, down to the tlnril phrase,
sung by the girl and Johnson. a? they
walk off the stage, tho music Is de?
scriptive to t'.io last degree.
So far as tho performance itself is
concerned, ihere la nothing to criticise.
A brilliant house, crowded to the doors,
brought the principals out time and
again. Thu chorus-, all men. sang as
one would imagine some well-trained
soloists would sing If they all endeav?
ored to form a complete and harmoni?
ous whole, und the orchestra of fifty,
under the magnetic direction of George
Polacco, was In itse'.f a thing of pure
delight. W. DOUGLAS OCR BOX.

several fetales und oi lue United States
were cited in the argument on the
demurrer, which consumed ull of Hie i
day in to-- City Circuit Court.
Up to thin tune county magistrates
having original Jurisdiction litivo held
that no gambling in violation of the
Virginia laws is being conducted ut

SURGEON-GENERAL
President Considering Selection
of Successor to Dr.
Wyman. . j
Washington. November 24,?Interest
Is being manifested in the Selection
of a successor to lJr. Walter Wyman
as surgeon-general of tho Public
Health ond Marine Hospital Service, no
official action has yet been taken look?
ing to tilling the vacancy, but It la
understood that it wan informally dis?
cussed at the Cabinet meeting to-day,
there Is a fair possibility lha,t th-j
service ultimately will be developed
Into u separate department, with a.
head who Ik a member of the Cabi?
net, the appointment of Ii new sur
gcon-gt'lieral is looked upon us more
Important than would be the case wer?
the position to continue Indefinitely un
a bureau undor the Treasury Depart?
ment.
'Ihrer Men OlHcussed.
Three men arc being seriously dis?
cussed ua possibilities by tho ofllcers
Of the service. They are .Surgeon Jo?
seph White. Surgeon John V. Ander?
son and Surgeon Itupcrt Blu?. There
Is it possibility that OUC of these will
be selected.
All have scientific records. Surgeon
White was In charge of the yellow
fever work in New Orleans In IS06.
Surgeon Anderson Is now the director
of the hygienic laboratory in Wash?
ington, ami .Surgeon Blue is In charge
Of the bubonic plague work In San
T-'runclsco. He Is u brother of Victor
Blue Of the navy, who won fame by
his roconnalssance In Cuba during th
Spanish War.
All three of these o/liccrs arc hlgh
cla8s research men, and all of them
have had experience In executive- work.
Dr. Anderson, as head of the hygienic
laboratory, more, possibly, than tho
two others. Officers of the service In
discussing the matter said that tho
only objection to selecting any of tho
Hire* for the place would be the In
advisability of putting a high-class re
search man in an administrative posi?
tion.
Ilr. Wiley Proposed.
There has been a good deal of In?
formal talk of appointing Or. II. W.
Wlleyi of the Department of Agricul?
ture, to the place, but this would be
Impossible, as the surgeon-general, un?
der the law, hut: to >.??? an officer of th<
servlec. As the law stands, the ap?
pointments t" the service urc made
after a medical examination before
:i board of officers, much as In tho
case of medical oiMc-rs in the navy.
The appointment is made by the
President and confirmed by the Sonate
afler the applicant has passed bis ex?
amination. II" serve;! then for a series
of years a.-- assistant surgeon, passed
assistant surgeon and finally an sur?
geon. From this grade the surgeon
general is selectod.
The talk of l?r. Wiley for the po?
sition probably originated |u the sug?
gestion made some time ago for the
transfer of the pure food work from
tie- Department of Agriculture lo tho
Murine Hospital Service, it is known
that ib.- Secretary of Agriculture fa?
vors ill!.-; transfer and that he bus
recommended it in his forthcoming re?
port i,, the President. Dr. Wiley Is
now out of town. It Is known, how?
ever, that iie would consider the posi?
tion with the fairly Immediate pro^
pecl of a Cabinet position ntfnehed to
H. hut l><- w. old noi relish simply
having his bureau transferred lo the
M ? din. 11 o> pitu I Service.
It Is probable ihai the selection of
n siiivc-. *., Cenernl Wyman will bo
made wlt'ilii a uhrrt lime.
