Dmntfunyoris CoMmmt | By DAMON BUNION. , % N«w York, Nov. 18.—Stevciw, of Yale, la potentially a great football player, perhaps one of the greatest of this generation. Where -does Stevens, of Yale, come from? From the little town of Osborne, in the fine state of Kansas. Stevens of Y'ale is 23 years old, stands 5 feet 11 inches, weights 165 pounds, not an ahnormally big lad, but well nourished by the pure, sweet air of the Jayhawker region. He prepared for Yale not at some "smart" eastern preparatory institu tion, but at the high school in Os borne. !i" got the football schooling that made him one of the stars of the game against Princeton Saturday un it' r Dr. Billy Bull, famous old time Yale football player, now a coach of the second varsity. 1'r. Hilly Bull's pupila^dld well In the game Saturday. Kieheson. quarterback, who was perhaps Yale's nearest approach to All-American material, is of Bull's squad. Where does Rlcheson come from? From New Orleans and the New Orleans High school. Thus the sons of the west and the south contribute to the east's foot ball fame. Mallory, the Yale captain, is a Ten nesseean; Diller, the guard, a Texan; Neale, the halfback, a West Virginian; human, who intercepted the Prince ton pass. Is from Wyoming; Blair, the tackle, another Texan; Milstead, the end, Is of Illinois, Tint the east also Is well represent ed in Yale's football squad. 0 Neidlinger, lineal descendant of a tornado when he gets the ball, is a New Jerseyan; Beaver, the end, a Philadelphian; Lovejoy, the center, an other New Jersey boy; Hond, a really man; Butterworth from Connecticut, Eekhart, the guard, from New Ro chelle, N. Y. Bingham, the end, is a Long Island man; Butterworth from Connecticutt and Pillsbury from Minnesota, where his people make the flour. Football ability is born of no par ticular section. Yale. It would appear, will easily beat Harvard and win the football championship of the big three—of the Yale-Harvard-Princeton combination. This will not mean that Y’ale has the best football team in the country. The most ardent Y'alesian would not put forward such a claim. It will mean, however, that Yale, has the best team in the Big Three and that Is enough football glory fot Yale. - YALE ALREADY BIG FAVORITE New York, Nov. 3 9.—Football ex perts have agreed upon all but one detail of the game next Saturday be tween Yale and Harvard at Soldiers' field, Eoston, the last of the 1923 contests among the “big three’ and that Is the size of the Elue score over the Crimson. After Yale's overwhelming defeat of Princeton, 27 to 0, at the bowl Saturday, and Harvard's downfall be fore Brown, 20 to 7, virtually every one but the undergraduates of Har vard have conceded the game to the New Haven outfit. Hagen Not to Play in California This Winter Eos Angeles, Nov. IS.—Walter Hag en. former British open golf cham pion, will not invade California links this winter, but instead will go to Florida, where he will t-emain until late In February, according to advices received from New York. Hockey Club Seeks Donations for V. S. Team in Olympics Pittsburgh, Nov. 18.—•William S. Haddock, president of the United States amateur hockey association, announced today that interested cities had been asked to raise a fund of $8,000 to send the American Olympic hockey team to France in January. Hockey leaders in Boston, Cleveland. ■St. Paul, Duluth, Minneapolis, Eve lath, New Haven and Pittsburgh, have been asked to raise a portion of the fund either by subscription or exhi bition gamf<s. Transportation of the team will be provided by the American Olympic club but other expenses In cident to the trip will be borne by the hockey association. Grid Gossip The three undefeated Big Ten Teams weathered the week end storm all right. Minnesota and Illinois corning through with deeistve scores, and Michigan top ping the Badgers by a freak touchdown that will occasion debate for some time to come. Michigan's star renter, Jack Blott. was carried from the field Saturday with a broken ankle. This puts the ground KH.ning combination of Uterltz and Blott out of the game for the sea>-on, and the loss will b© keenlly felt In the Mincsota clash. Iowa players are of the opinion that the Minnesota machine Is the strong- -t that they have come up against this year. They will start preparing for th© North western conflict today minus their 23f. pound renter, Grlffen, who was In jured Saturday. •lohn Thomas was Injured In the Ohio game, but his trainers think h© will be ready to play when (’hbago stacks up against Wisconsin next Saturday.

Captain Arthur Pelham, arriving in London from Bombay, India, after several years* absence, is told by a railway potter of his strong resem blance to Sir Arthur, who he says was Killed in France Pelham declares that his cousin it very mu*h ajive. Jenkins, the porter, tells of words he heard the supposedly dying man repeat and declares that these names have been seen signed to personal Items In the "Agony Column" of a London newspaper. After going to a hotel. Captain Pelham decides to join In the fun and writes a personal addressed to "Matador and Vaquero" who had signed the ones whi^h drew hi* at tention. He warns both that “Hull’ la after them. ‘Scotland Yard will know of this in the morning." remark" one of the clerks In the advertising office. On a midnight walk Pelham walks through the gates of the family manor and immediately is set upon by an other Intruder. A policeman catches him but allows hiu assailant to es cape. After being Questioned at police headquarters. Pelham returns to his lodgings. Next morning O F. Prideaux of Scotland Yard rails upon him and hears his story front the time he ar rived in London to his fight of the previous evening. When the official from the criminal Investigation department hears that Pelham's assailant appeared to be German. Prideaux. It is interest In the ease increase* and he agrees to use the co-operation of Pelham in the clearing of the mystery Phyllis Paunt, flan e of Sir Arthur Pelham, calls on Captain Pelham while Prideaux is with him She toils of meeting the titled English man and of her suspicions She freia in duty bound to marry the baronet. The army officer is impressed with the girl. (Continued From Yestardar.) Prldeaux nodded gravely. His high ly expressive features .showed marked approval of Miss Phyllis's scheme. To his thinking apparently it was the. most natural thing in the world that a handsome and highly intell'gent girl should thrust aside all thought of love and matrimony. ‘‘Don't act precipitately," was what he said. "There Is no violent hurry. A few days,' Hir Arthur said?" "Ves." “That may mean a week. I shall see you again before he returns. Are your letters likely to be interfered with?” "No. I have no reason to suspect anything of the kind.” "I’ll write you, suggesting some frivolous appointment in a shop, and sign myself 'Dora.' It’s quite an of ficial name, you know. But I shall want you to come here at the hour stated, or telephone Captain Pelham beforehand fixing an alternative day and time. Now. I w&nt you to be lieve that you have acted very wisely in making Captain Pelham's ac quaintance. He Is no stranger, bglng Sir Arthur's first cousin, and an offi cer with a first-rate army record. At least, so the War Office Informs me. Kate has contrived that you two should be friends, and she is an ex cellent judge In such matters. Make a note of Captain Pelham's telephone number, lest he should forget to give it you. It Is long after 11 o'clock, but you two might pass an hour to advantage in Burlington House. I believe, captain, you will find that this year's academy has never been equalled before and may never be again. If you want a quiet and well cooked luncheon, go to V. Pucci's Italian cafe in Dean street, Soho, and say 1 sent you. And, while I remem ber, what club does that orange growing idiot patronize?” "He's a friend of Major Drummer, who hangs out at the 'Hag.' ” “I'll phone the major. Miss Phyllis, a few machine-gun questions, and I'm off. Can you describe the accents of the two men, ‘Maiador’ and ‘Va quero?' ” '• 'Vaquero' spoke with a guttural accent. lie might be German, or Dutch. 'Matador' was much more un English—altogether foreign. If he were an IC'U- ■ c-ho had lived a ittle time in England that would appear Just right. “Do you speak German?” "No, not well, that is. When I was at school I learnt enough German and Italian to sing intelligently, if badly, in both languages.” "It may seem a strange thing to say hut I hope some day to hear you giving evidence In the law-courts. The Judge will certainly compliment I SUCCESS WAS CERTAIN WITH tola ■ The amazing story H of a woman who ■ lived as a man.

"Does Peter*, or any other of the servant* at Cedar Lodge, know of the existence of 'Vaquero' or 'Mata dor?' " "I think not." "Are all the servants British?" "Yes, all. Sir Arthur would not even accept a Swiss chauffeur as deputy for Tomlinson when he had 1 influenza. At least, so Peters salil" "Ah. llo»v did that point arise?" "W'e were talking about the war, and Sir Arthur's horrid experiences in a German hospital." "Secure all available facts in that regard. Did Tomlinson drive you this morning?" "Yes.” "So he would vouch for it that his employer went to Waterloo?" "Undoubtedly. 1 didn't guess at any change until we were inside tlfb station, where Sir Arthur- bought an A. B. C. time table. It seemed quite reasonable he should choose Padding ton If the train suited him better.” "Did you happen »o notice what town he looked up?" "No. I was too interested in a dear dog, an Irish setter, with the loveli est pathetic eyes, who was chained to a pillar." "Andromeda chained to a rock," said Prideaux. Then he stood up, and Phyllis rose at the same time. The three descended the wtalrs to gether. and Prideaux Insisted on dropping the young people at Burling ion House. Once there, the two headed for the least crowded room. "Isn't he a darling?" said Phyllis. “He strikes me as a Jolly decent sort of chap," agreed Pelham. “And don't you really mind putting off that luncheon on my account?" “Whatkluncheon?” “I shall be angry if you pretend things. The luncheon with the orange-growing man at the 'Rag,' which Mr. Prideaux is going to tele phone about. “On my honor. I have never seen the blighter, and don't even know his name. Drummer did invite me in a casual sort of way, but it's his showr, not mine." “I’ll believe you this once," said Phyllis saucily, "but only because I’m dying to hear what the railway porter said. Mind you, you've got to tell me everything." “I'll tell you what I had for din ner on the train, if you like." “What train?" “The P. & O. special from Mar seilles, in which I traveled on Wed nesday." “Where from?" “India,” “Oh, I should love to go to India.” “Unhappily, I am out of the army now." “Well, as we are here, let's-look at a few pictures," said Phyllis hur riedly. The vivid interior of V. Pucci's res taurant atoned for a certain external d.nglness The mere mention of Mr. Prideaux's name brought the pro prietor himself hotfoot in attendance, though the phrase is a figure of (■perch, since he wns a most portly pel soil. ■'Perhaps you have an alcove. 01 corner, w here we can talk w ithout be ins overheard?” said Pelham. "The very thing, sir," whs the an swer, In surprisingly good Knglisli. And. Indeed, the restaurant abounded in such nooks. They ate something, they never knew what, but it tasted like a ban quet of the gods, for they were young, and hungry, and much inter ested in each other, while fate, hav ing, as Prldeaux said, contrived their friendship, gave no hint of the som ber days yet In store for both of them. Now, of course, Pelham got ids in nings, and, to tus own great surprise, was able to compile a rather thrill ing story. This was the first time he had actually marshalled events in sequence in his own mind. He is hardly to be blamed If lie looked lather at ills fair companion than at the other occupants of the cafe, and not even Prideaux's omniscience' foresaw that the very man whom he (Pelham) had pinned to earth the night before should choosaatliat par ticular restaurant for hi*luncheon that day. Yet so It happened, though the co incidence was not far fetched, since most foreigners of a certain type vis iting London find themselves at home in Soho, and V. Pucci's fame was great, in that small circle. The particular alcove In which the young folk were seated lay at the end pf a long, narrow room on the ground floor. An open window looked out on to a glass plot, wun a muintrry tree doing its best to obtain a glimpse of the sky Pelham was seated with his back to the window; Phyllis faced the main body of the restaurant. Khe could not, and did not, look at her companion all the time, and, in tent as she was on his recital, her eyes took In many of the people who sat at the other tables, some being quite visible, while others were hid den by the slight wooden screens which gave a degree of privacy to each section. She had never before mixed in such a strange company, which is quaintly dubbed ■'cosmo politan" by writers in search of local colour, but which Is actually made up of Italians, a few southern French men, and a sprinkling of nonde scripts, w ho might have .been tier mans before the war hut are now classed by themselves as Swiss or Scandinavians. Nevertheless, they were all people of some means. V. Pucci's menus are expensive. A tall, thin man. wearing very dark spectacles, and diessed in a suit of Assam silk, came in when the two were eating a risotto. The only va cant table was near theirs, and the girl fancied that he gave Pelham an almost startled scrutiny. He that as It may, he dived into his retreat, and was seen no more until he went out again. Phyllis literally paid no heed to that fleeting Impression of hers un til the place was empty, and a fur tive waiter asked If he could bring them anything else So they reached the street, and the girl's sharp eyes instantly detected flu Assam silk suit lounging at the nexi - orner, “Please don't think me absurd." she said, “but your description , f that man whom you tackled last night fits in physically, at any rate, with a per | son who lunched in the restaurant, and who seemed to recognize you. Don't look round. Pant you light a cigar or pipe while I tell you about him? Then we can walk that way, land you’ll see him.'' Pelham admitted that the fellow’s build and air corresponded with his assailant's. "If only I could see his nose," he said. Phyllis did not quit^ grasp his meaning. “Well, 1 hit him on the nose, and there is no specific I know of which will remove all trace of a good healthy punch within twelve hour*.’’ When they were within twenty yards of him the stranger Walked away quickly, and vanished up a side street. » "Now what’s to he done?" laughed Pelham. "I can hardly run after him. and demand a close Inspection of his boko, which is what Tommy calls it." "Suppose we walk that way, too," she suggested. They did so, but the man was striding out swiftly. He did not even look hack when he rounded another corner. Pelham, however, had beep trained In two good schools for sharpening the wits. In Shaftsbury Avenue he had no further excuse for detaining his charming ‘and most agreeable companion, so put her into \l>\ fCfiTIKF.MES T.
