Manila, P. I., Sept. 27--Two agents of the Harvard CRIMSON, arriving here today in a junk from Shanghai, China, announced that they had with them the successor to Joe Forecast, the famous Chinese prophet, Dr. Who Slung Hooey.

The trio had an amazing, almost incredible story to tell. Dr. Who Slung Hooey had recently been in the employ of the National Government in China, predicting the out-come, if any, of the Sino-Russo war. The glint of American gold, however, lured the great oriental prophet away from his position with the near-bankrupt Nationalist Government, and after a series of thrilling adventures and hairbreadth escapes the doctor and his two American companions were able to elude half of the Chinese army and all of the Chinese Navy to set sail for Manila in their tiny craft.

The acquisition of Dr. Hooey's services by the Harvard CRIMSON marks the triumphal conclusion to an arduous search through all sections of the world for a suitable prognosticator of football scores to succeed Joe Forecast. Astrologers, crystal gazers, weathermen, whole tribes of gypsies, spiritualists, and all sorts of seers in all the far corners of the globe have been interviewed by CRIMSON agents since Joe Forecast first intimated some months ago that the rosy path of matrimony was going to lead him forever away from the printshops and football stadia.

Dr. Hooey is proceeding from Manila to Cambridge via Honolulu, the Aleutian Islands, Nome, Seattle, and Chicago, in a desperate effort to reach Harvard before the CRIMSON eleven goes on the field against Bates next week.

Although the oriental sage hopes his new followers will not risk all their money so early in the season on his predictions for Saturday's games, like the good sport that he is, he submitted the following scores for the day's gridiron battles to newspaper correspondents here today: Boston College 27  Catholic U. 6 Dartmouth 39  Norwich 0 Holy Cross 32  St. John's 0 Brown 20  Springfield 0 West Point 33  Boston U. 7 New Hampshire 13  Colby 0 Michigan 27  Mt.
