Wallie Steffen, the great Maroon quarterback, who has been coaching Carnegie Tech. this fall, ar- rived at noon and went out to the field. Steffen turned out the best team that ever represented Carnegie, 1 holding Pittsburgh and Cornell to; two touchdowns. D “Shorty” Des: Jardien, who coached - Oberlin this season, was back in Chi- cago, glad that his schedule is com- plete. The Oberlin faculty expelled most of the first team of the great Maroon center for organizating a fra- ternity and “shorty” had to build an eleven out of men who had never touched a football. Choice Seats All Sold. The seat sale for the Minnesota game kept the business office on the jump all day yesterday. A long line attacked the gymnasium to secure pasteboards at the end of the day.

Previous to that time Yale had virtually a corner on scoring in the tie with her age-old enemy, 1912 was the last Yale year when the Blue cohorts smothered the Crimson 20 to 0. Graduations have left Harv. ard without the brilliant Brick- fey and Mahan, but the work of Casey and Horween in the backfield, with a forward line fully up the Haughton standard has, made Harvard a favorite. Yale has come fast under the tutelage of Tad Jones and will present a formidable front. \ ee ee oe ee oe + ate oth ote See ea8e RPP PAN eet ee eee oe Oo | KICKS 21 GOALS | WITHOUT A MISS | o——. u A record almost unique in foot- ‘ball has been made by De Vitalis, the Brown tackle, during the 1916 season.

Of the 20 contests already decided the Army holds the edge by one victory, having, captured ten ‘contests, the ‘Navy nine, and ope has been a tie. With such men as Oliphant, Gerhardt, Vidal and McEwan making up the strongest part of this year’s team the Army is being generally favored to win. And, in addition to this the West Pointers put a vict- ory over on Washington and é, a team which had little trouble in taking a fall out of the Middies.

As an open field runner Pollard was unequaled during the entire four years he‘ spent at Lane. Records: during. the last two years of his Chicago pre gridiron career showed that: he. covered more * ground than many.an entjre team. «He could. find openings in an op- * posing--eleven's ‘line. faster than the: average spectator’s eye could follow him. ‘Likewise, in straight line: plunging “Fritz” always was ood for at least. seven or ¢ight yards and it..was rarely he. was thrown for ‘a loss. Encircling ends for a fifteen to twenty yard gain was a common feature for him.. Punting and drop kicking found him. unexcelled. Football, however, was ‘not the only. sport that made Pollard’s pre career stand forth. He held more track and field records than any other high school performer in ‘the country. As a young pre track star he equalled many col- lege records at that time, especial- ly in the short distance sprints. It was not a uncommon occurence to see him coming into the dres- ° sing:roomi after a track meet with two hands full of the customary gold, silver and bronze buttons. In the same style of athletic efficiency. that characterized him in his high-school days. Pollard is playing football at Brown. To Pollard’s work alone can-be ascribed the 21 to 6 victory of the Bruins ‘over Yale’ and the subse- quent 21 to 0 defeat of Harvard. PURDUE PLANS GREAT LaFayette, Ind.
