In and aronnd Newberry, so it is reported, football fans are confident that Newberry team will bring home Burma n's scalp; around Greenville, the general opinion seems to be that local institution will have little (rouble in walking away with the honors.

Scrf IE Many Games Will Be Played In The East Today; Pittsburg Vs. Syracuse OTHER GAMES XBW YORK, Oct. 10. Of the thirty-odd college football games1 to be played in the eaat tomorrow, the outstanding contest appears to be that between Pittsburgh and Syracuse. Under normal conditions the meet-Ins of Cornell and Colgate would be an event of unusual interest but with the uncertain material available at both universities now the contest is not expected to attain the standard of previous years.

Another match of promise is the game between Dartmouth and West Virginia at Hanover. Pittsburgh found West Virginia hard to beat, while the Southerners downed the Navy- 7 to 0. In view of this strength It is thought thHt the visitors will have a slight edge over Dartmouth. Itutgers is generally favored over LaFayette In the meeting between these two teams tomorrow. The.

navy is also the choice to win from tho Carlisle Indians, due In part to the better showing made by the Middies against West Virginia. Carlisle losing to the Southerners by 21 to 0. Tho elevens Captain Olymphant leading the charge is expected to prove a hard opponent for Tufts to overcome and the same may be said of Pennsylvania in its meeting with Buckne.ll. Harvnrd's "informal" team is scheduled to play Tuder Gardiner's Camp Bartleit Military team and as this eleven is composed entirely of former college stars It is likely that the soldiers will givo Harvard's players a lively tussle on Soldiers Field. Other games of Interest include the meeting of Lehigh and Georgetown, Brown and Boston college; Swarth-more and Gettysburg and Washington and Jefferson against Pennsylvania State.

LOXEOX. Oct .19. The "whie man's tig war" has completely mysti-lUd the natives of England's Pacific Islands, who for a generation have heard war as a s.ln by their white protectors. Moreover tha fact that a war could last more than a few days was a puzzzle to them. In interesting account of the attitude cf the natives of Ihe Gilbert and- KUice Islands is included in the annual report ot the colony.

It says: 'The Missions had first preached the sin of war; later the British Government, and the German rule of the, neighbor'ng Marshall Group, had sternly represj-ed any sympton of unrest, which is as natural to. native races as the growth from childhood to manhood. That these two great white races whose wisdom had caused wari to cease should be visiting each othors tslar.ds and driving home the spoar made them more human and less far removed as. beings of a superior order. "Then it wag rumored that native racef were being allowed to take their placo with British, troops, and the islands volunteered to a man.

When it waa learned that their services could not be accepted, but that they might be permitted to contribute towards war relief funds, they were again profoundly surprised. "Carefully It was explained tne money was not for the conduct of the war, that money for this purpose was raised, where necessary, by de-mand and not tjr voluntary effort, but that many men had to die, and that women and children must continue to live not wholly us a burden on the empire. Once realised the reply was spontaneous. The natives of icean Island asked leave to give all their phosphate royalty to patriotic funds, and were "with difficulty per-Mtiaded to limit their gltt to 1,000 by the warning- of possible future droughts.
