In the second half Lamb kicked a field goal.

CLUBS ARE FOR SALE Br Associated Pbess to Gazktts Tiuss.l NEW YORK, Nov. 13.

Immediate peace In the baseball world is by no means certain, according to a statement given out tonight by Robert S. Ward, president of the Brooklyn Federal league club. Ward returned from Chicago yesterday, where he had been in conference with Charles Weeghman, August Herrmann and President Gilmore of the Federals on the peace proposition. The Brooklyn Federals' president was annoyed by a report that he and his nephew, Walter Ward, had been In Philadelphia to purchase the Philadelphia National League club from William F. Baker, "I was cot In "Philadelphia," said Ward, "and at the present time I have no option on any club, nor am I negotiating with any one for a club.

"It is true I said yesterday that I had been told by a person In authority that the Boston, Brooklyn and Philadelphia National League clubs could be bought. I reiterate this statement, but I do not say that any ot these three cluba were offered to me. "My pergonal opinion1 of the present attempts to bring about peace in baseball is that the time Is too early, and that a year from now will be far more suitable time to settle the baseball wrangle tnan the present. We are not begging for peace- "I also wish to say that there la chance of Mr, Weeghman buying the Chicago Nationals unless all the othef men in the Federal League are well taken care of. Mr.

Weeghman fa no! tying to throw down the Federal League, I can speak positively on that point. TV's are all banded together, and there can be no settling of the present baseball war until all our men are protected. Organised baseball knows this as well as we." William Baker, president of the Philadelphia club also entered art em phatic denial tonight, that any deal Involving the club had been discussed by him and Mr. Ward.

From Allegheny High IfOlKi CALL) OH Mt a Pin AND TECH TO HAVE IT OUT Heiiewinj; Friendly Hola-tions in Football Al'tnr Two Years, Rivalry Is Keen. I'NTERKST IX GAME A kliort, snappy icnal practice at l'ortxa Field yesterday afternoon concluded the prarutlon of the University of Pittsburgh football eleven for its meeting with Carnegie Tech this afternoon. Tractlcs for the Oold and Blue has been greatly hampered this week by the aboence of many regular players from the lineup and the formation of a raw combination has been the task set before the roaches with the Tech gamo the objective. Not for several years have the two educational neighbors met on the gridiron and the contest today will be followed by the greatest anJ most wide-spread local Interest that bas attended any game thus far on the local card. Tech and Pitt flrjit met in football years ago, shortly aftvr the organisation of the former Institution anil before (he university had changed its name.

During the earlv games the Gold and films was universally succesnful and later when Tech luet prestige by repeated unsuccessful sasons, the metings betwocs the two elevens wus abandoned. In lh last two years Tech has regained In great art its lost wjttkn on the gridiron. This Is Bteffens- first yeifr with Tech and his astonishing success In the face of obKtacles has put the Plaid eleven In th front rank of local college elevens. Pittsburgh will have her work cut out for her from the very start today. The Gold and Ulue will be shy several varsity men and tht-re is llitlo doubt but that the Plaid will give Duff men ft merry time of It with the open attack that must be Tech's only houe against the heavier Pitt team.

In Kr.n-ner. who directs the team at quarterback, Tech has one of the cievereat quarterbacks In the business this fall. Kesner Is a heady player and makes an Ideal medium fur the operation of Stiffens' football strategy, lie Is quick as lightning, a daring open field runm-r and throws the forward asa with judgment and accuracy. Pittsburgh will be represented by a backneld which should not have a very great advantage tn weight. Pittsburgh should have a noticeable advantage in tne line thouch great "effort hes Ik-en made In the week's practice at Teen to strengthen her forwnrds with this game in view.

In fact Teeh has heen preparing for this game for some time. Following the poor showing of thu Pitt team In the Indian and Georgetown games, which came ab-ut the time when the Plaid was achieving such success by the close game at l.ehigh, there was some hope at Tech of besting the Oold and Blue by a brilliant dispUy of open attack. And even though Duffs eleven lias greatly Improved since that tlmu, there Is still little room for the university eleven tn overlook the dangerous style of s'tck that it will have to defend against today. Tech's great hope at i.iaent Is touchdown agulnst Pittsburgh. The kick-off will take place at 2:30.

Nov. 13. Both Princeton and Vale had their final workouts here today In preparation for their annual gridiron contest In the new Palmer stadium tomorrow. Coach Penflcld gave his squad only a short signal drill on University Field, the stadium be Ins given over exclusively to the Yale players. A high wind prevailed all dr.y and the handling of punts in the new structure largely was a matter of guesswork.

Immediately after its practice the Yale sjuad returned to New Brunswick where training quarters have been established. Notwithstanding the comparatively poor showing made by the Princeton eleven so fur this season, many of its supporters believe that the team has been materially strengthened, both on tiie defensive and offensive, and that Yale will find In the Orange and Black tomorrow a different machine from that which met such an overwhelmingly defeat it the hands of Harvard u. week ago. Yale followers, however, express confidence in the KUj and are offering odds on ttteir favorites. The coaches of both elevens declare their men are In good condition and ready for the battle.

Fifth Avenue High's plunging backs taking advantage and winning by 12 to 7. One minute and a half remained to be jjayed when Jefferson. Fifth Avenue lett halfback, carried the ball over after a short skirt around right end on a fourth down.

It was a grueling contest and the teams were apparently about evenly matched. Fifth Avenue High School, imbued with plenty of the "old" fighting spirit, carried the battle to Allegheny during most of tiie game and this, together with a speed, ler eet of forwards, offset what little poundage the North Slders had. All kinds of football was used during the game, but for the most part the straight game was the rule. A stiff wind was blowing from the weet and the eleven with its back to the wind usually resorted to kicking. Both teams got away with long punts.

Allegheny kicked to Fifth at the start, but Fifth Avenue was asleep and Allegheny recovered the ball on the 30-yard line without Fifth getting a chance at it. Fifth's line held and finally Allegheny had to relinquish the ball. No score was made In this quarter, but a short time after the opening of the second period Fifth scored. At -the start of the second period Wittmer punted to Tovey on the 38-yard line. Allegheny held and Tovey punted short, I short, fast signal practice completed W.
