ped by their lack In weight, they are
showing some speed, and cheered on
by the big crowd In attendance they
are coming pretty well up to. the ex
pectations of their friends.
Weston team this yenr Is stronger
than for1 years and the husky teacher
chaps show considerable strength In
play. Coach Keefe, who Is a former
Harvard man, has drilled his men
pretty thoroughly In the game and
some surprises In the way of new
plays are expected.

Boss Tweedy.
"Rockefeller Is supporting Taft be

Elmlra, X. Y., Oct. 31. Before an
enthusiastic crowJ here today, Taft
opened his last day's tour of the
state and appealed for the election
of Hughes.
He referred to the announcement
by Rockefeller that the latter favor
ed the republicans, as the surest
sign that the Standard Oil is against
the republicans. He called the an
nouncement an ante-election trick.
After his speech he went to Wa

Mrs. Taft will Join the party to

she will go with her husband to

Calls Taft's Statement Foolish.
Cleveland, Ohio. Oct. 31. Relatives
and close associates of Rockefeller
declare today that the announcement
of his support of Taft Is the logical
outcome of his statements last fall.
"It is foolish to suppose that Rock
efeller made the announcement for
the purpose of hurting Taft," said W.
C. Rndd, Rockefeller's brother-in-law.
"Rockefeller announced early in the
campaign that he favored Taft, and
his support Is merely that of a party
man and a citizen. The statement
that it was given in return for im
munity Is equally foolish.'
