follows:
“James B. Neale, who succeeds Mr.
Law, is a comparatively young man,
probably 30 or 35 years of age. He
came originally from a small town near
Pittsburg, where his family was en-
gaged in the coke business. Graduating
from Yale University, he chose mine
management as his life work, and in
order to gain the practical experience
so desirable, entered the mines of the
Pennsylvania Coal Co, as an assistant
foreman. For some time he - was
located in the Schooley mine and later
in the mines at Dunmore. For several
tnonths past he has occupied a responsi-
ble position with the Scranton Coal Co.,
in Scranton, the new concern that oper-
ates collieries controlled by the Ontario
& Western Railroad Co. Mr. Neale
comes to a position of responsibility at
an early age, but those acquainted with
his abilities have no fear but that he
will be able to meet all the require-
ments. He will have under his super-
vision five collieries—the Twin and the
Ravine, in Pittston; the Phoenix and
Columbia, at Duryea, and the Girard,
at Mt. Carmel.”

Fall Meeting Well Attended—Bull’s
illustration of Football.
The regular Fall meeting of the Long
Island Association, Nov. 18, crowded
the parlors of the Brooklyn Club and
was especially marked for the presence
of many recent graduates, new acces-
sions to the rolls of this Association.
Mr. Joseph A. Burr, ’71, presided, and
introduced as the ante-prandial speaker
Mr. F. W. Williams of the Yale Faculty,
who gave a keen and scholarly exposi-
tion of the Eastern question. After the
supper a Ja Moriarty, Mr. H. S. Brooks,

football formations which would proba-
bly be used by Harvard on Saturday.
The finer points of the modern game

lightenment of the large company of lay-
men.
Mr. Frank J. Price, Yale ’92, Assem-
blyman elect, modestly related how
he cornered the market in grizzlies this

creditable to the mightier Nimrod who
is Governor of his State.
The meeting was attended by about
one hundred and fifty graduates.

_Ex-President Dwight Exchanges
His Property.
Negotiations have recently been com-
pleted, by which ex-President Dwight
exchanges his residence on the corner
of College and Wall Streets for the
University property on the Northwest
corner of Hillhouse Avenue and Sachem
Street, occupied for some time by Miss
Cady’s School for Girls. This exchange
gives the University property of 80 feet
on College Street and 150 feet on Wall,
in the heart of the territory on which
the University is developing. The
property on Hillhouse Avenue, which
will, after a few months, become the
home of ex-President Dwight, has
about eighty feet frontage on Hillhouse
Avenue and about four hundred on
Sachem Street, running back to Pros-
' pect Street.

Paean Yalensis.
The following song, written by a
graduate of the Class of ’81, may be
sung at the Princeton game to original
music:
Hurrah! Hurrah! Lift up the cry for
Yale.
Fling out, with shout, her banner to the
gale.
On waves of song our cheers are borne
along:
Rally, boys, for Eli!
Hurrah for Yale!
No foe we know, that can inspire a fear ;
Defeat we meet with just another cheer ;
If for an hour it seems to overpower,
It’s “Rally, boys, for Eli!
Hurrah for Yale!
A cheer sincere to the bravest of our
foes, °
The zest is best when heaviest are the
blows.
Our gauntlet’s thrown, but the hand
will clasp your own.
Rally, boys, for Eli!
Hurrah for Yale!”
All hail to Yale! Her trophies set it
forth
How true the blue to loyalty and worth.
Our banners wave over legions of the
brave.
Whoop her up for Eli!
Hurrah for Yale!

Cornell Wins Cross Country.
The first annual cross-country run
of the Intercollegiate Cross Country
Association was held on Saturday, No-
vember 18th, on the Morris Park race
track course, near New York. The
course was six and two-thirds miles long
and included about forty-five obstacles in
the way of hurdles and water jumps.
Cornell won the team championship,
and J. F. Creegan of Princeton the in-
dividual prize. Yale, University of
Pennsylvania, and Columbia finished
second, third and fourth respectively,
Princeton failed to qualify, as four men
of the team did not finish in the first
twenty-five.
_ Yale has accepted a challenge sent by
Cornell for a dual cross country meet to
be held in Ithaca, December 2.
The course to be run will be seven
miles long, and the winning team is to
receive a banner and its members team
prizes.

The importance and significance of
the banquet of the Chamber. of Com-

complete record. This record will be as
interesting later as it is now. It can
hold better than other matter and so
goes over into another issue.
