Both elevens have come through the year with no defeats end both consider themselves, at this stage of the game, extremely eligible for the state title. After tomorrow's game one of the two schools will have to take a back seat in its claims. Casper will be handicapped by the loss of two backfield regulars and two Mnemen for the greatest part of the game. Captain Hales and Bell, left end, who are on the in- jured list, will be in action part of the time but Stanton, halfback, and Van Doren, will not get into suits. 'The former is hors de combat with a bad knee and the latter is down in his work. Through more than half of the game Casper will have a lineup con- siderably changed from former games. In the backfield will be McKelvey, Archambault, Gorrell and either Allsman or Habernicht. On the ends will be Young and Gibson in Bell’s place: At tackles will be the old reliable Tom Kassis and Alls- man with Boln, a new man, and Thompson, a veteran, holding down the guard: Shikany is due to start at center. Several of the second string players are expected, to be seen in action before the game is over. Cheyenne is sending its strongest Uneup of the season with every man in fine condition for the game.

The gamé is scheduled to start promptly at 2:30. ‘The local high school students are making big preparations for the game and will hold a parade at noon tomorrow through the downtown business section with the cadet corps and the school band in line. So far this year the high school has had bad weather breaks and the football management 1s considerably in the red. With any kind of a fair day tomorrow the school expects to break even on the day and pay off the debts contracted bringing teams here earlier in the fall. Charm Worked In Grid Game; Will Become Fixture MANHATTAN, Kan., Oct. 381.— When the Kansas State Aggies re- cently triumphed over their tradi- tional gridiron foe Kansas univer. sity, in thein first victory in eight een years, a “charm” that the alumni had seen work in 1906 was revived tor the first time since that histor: ical game. During the 1906 encounter “Aggie” supporters turned loose on the field ® jack rabbit waring thetr purple and white colors. It was not until @ member of that team came back this year to witness the annual clas- eio and watched his daughter invoke the od “charm” freeing a rabbit on the field between halves, that the Aggies defeated their rivals again. Twice successful, the tradition now may become an annual rite.

(Special Correspondent of the Casper Tribune.) NEW YORK, Oct. 31.—We have heard a great deal about the scout- ing system.in football -but some- thing must be happening either to the scouts or to the sysem. if one may judge of its results. Tho mos: siartling inrtance of this is in the ease of Grange of Illinu's, the All- American back of last year, who has probably been more scouted than any other man, and yet in the Mich- igan vam in the first ten minutes of play, he got the ball in hiv hands half a dozen times, ran 266 yards and scored four touchdowns. It is said that Yost has scouted Illinois. for two weeks and. other Michigan scouts had studied him-through the season of 1923, Ancther illustration {s the revers: cribs cross play of Dartmouth, Ya" it is said, had scouted Dartmouth in Practically all her games, and yet this play, a criss cross to Hall, wark- ed nearly every time. Last year Princeton scouts had been following Notre Dame, Lourie the former All-American quarter- back of Princeton, studying their p’ays and particularly in the Army game the week before, and yet Notre Dame rolled up over twe: Points against Princeton, her plays going like clockwork. There are plenty of other in- stances already this season. One of the difficulties of scouting that has not been reckoned with, however. outside of individual players, is that a play may be switched from one man to another, and the very fact that the opponents have information as to the character of the play, the final recipient of the ball may work to their detriment, because such Plays can be crossed. Ono of the best instances of this back in the old FOOTBALL QUESTIONS of the Casper Tribune, 814 World Building, New York.

Altogether there seem to be good and bad points about the scouting system, Another Saturday has shown evi- dence of what this column called attention to last week, the inability of the majority of the big teams to co-ordinate their attack when it comes to getting over that goal line from insignificant distances, I can hardly believe that it is the guper- human efforts of the plucky team on defense much as they should be praised for the heroic stand. Four downs to make a paltry yard or two betokens a weakness in co-ordina- tion of the brains and brawn of the attacking side for it eleven men all working together not only to aid ‘tack but to decelye the oppon- and all advised by the signal just where the attack {s to be made while the opponents do not. know how or where the thrust is to come —it I say that eleven men can not advance the ball under such condi- tions five feet there is something wrong that can be corrected. ‘W. N. Morice, one of our most prominent football students and of- ficials, sends me from abroad an account of a football match played at Neath, which winds up with the following paragraph: “At the close of the match the crowd made a demonstration against ‘he referee, Mr. W. J. Llewellyn, whose decisions during the game came in for much criticism. On leaving the ground he was surround. ed and attempts were made to as- sault him, but the players and police rushed to his assistance and rescued him and conveyed him first to the grand stand and then to the house of the police superintendent, from where he got to the railway station.” Our good friend, Bill, it will be remembered, has been through some of these experiences and ks me to send {t on to Langford. Those who draw seats near the ‘op of the stadiums or bowls in the siMottment of tickets for the big games can get a good deal of con- solation out of the fact that both Foster Sanford and Bill Roper erect towers up just above the top of these seats from which they follow the formations and dg the coaching by megaphone. As a matter of fact, it is far easier to diagnose formations, as well to pick out technical faults, from this position than any other gn the field. Grantland Rise’ says: ‘Football comes closer to expressing the American spirit and the American idea than any two other games com- bined. The truth of the matter is that there is no spirit so strong in youth as the so-called “‘gang-spirit,” which develops in later years into local loyalties as evidenced by the growth vf clubs of all kinds—Ro- tary, Kiwanis, Lions—and is the basis after all for love of commun: } ty and country. Edgar W. Garbisch, hailing from Washington, Pa., and the star cen- ter on the West Point team. well as a remarkable place kicker, and captain of the team, came from the Washington High school where he was captain of his football team, went to Washington-Jefferson where {n his junior year he was made ecap- tain of the football team, is a re- markable all around athlete. He ts captain of the tennis team at West Point also, which gives out some idea of his versatility. ‘The announcement was recently made that Foster Sanford, Jr., the son of the Rutgers coach, has en- tered Penn. This young man is a big fellow and played football at Kent school at Connecticut, and everyone will watch his career with terest. . in’ Ox - WHAT DO YOU THINK Ive GOT ON, my NIGHT GOWN OR SOME ‘THIN?

FARRELL (United Press Staff Correspondeft) NEW YORK, Oct. 31—With all the interesting and exciting preliminary formalities ended last week, the foot- ball season will get into heavy ac- tion tomorrow with a schedule filled with a flock of banner attractions. ‘With the exception of a very few games, where varsity teams are tak- ing a rest before a sereve test next week, every game on the schedule rates as a feature attraction, Hun- dreds of thousands of fans will fill to capacity all the great stadiums of the country. Ranking as the feature game of the schedule because of its spectac- ular trimmings and its promise of hard, if not perfect football, is the Army-Yale game at New Haven. For the third time the ganie will fill the huge Yankee bow! to its capa- clty of 75,000. The demand for tickets was so great that all the tickets were sold more than two weeks ago and none were offered to the public. There {s something patriotic and inspiring about a drill of the West Point cadets that nothing else can equal in the way of a spectacle. is a thrilling sight to see the cadets marching down Pennsylvania Ave- nue in the inaugural parades, We- cause it is the finest drilled body of men in the world, but it {s something vastly more inspiring to sit in the towering stands and see the battal fons drilling down on the green turf of the big Yale Bowl. More spec- tators go to the Army-Yale game to see the cadets drill than to watch the football game. The Army has a powerful team and Yale doesn't seem to be as strong as the champion team of 19238, making bright the prospects for an even and hard-fought battle. From a pure fotball standpoint the Army-Yale game will be the most important game of the day in the east. There are six other games that may have more,of an important bearing upon the award of the Enst- ern championship. Lafayette and Pennsylvania meet in their annual battle at Philadelphia and the East doesn’t have to be told that It will de a football game. Syracuse and Pittsburgh meet at Syracuse in another annual ‘battle that always brings out some of the hardest football of the season. Penn State goes to Annapol's for a return game with the Navy mid- shipmemen and it is sure to be a hard-fought game even if the Navy did get away poorly, Columbia, continuing on its sched ule that was made for a team of war horses, megts Cornell at Ithica. Since Williams showed how it can be done, Columbia will not be over awed by the past reputation of Cor- nell. Dartmouth, always one of the best teams in the East, has a game against Brown. It was scheduled for the purpose of giving Dartmouth a breather after two successive bat- tles with Yale and Harvard but tt may not turn out to be that way. Three other major teams of the ~ East tried to arrange for a let-up under the strain to prepare for hard games next week. Harvard, getting ready for the Princeton game, plays Boston U. Princeton, making the same prep. arations for Harvard, has a harder game against Swarthmore. West Virginia, out of the Cer game last week and getting, ready for Colgate next week, meets Beth- any at Morgantown, After visiting the West, seeing Western football and hearing West- ern football fans, it seems a waste of words to say that all the good games will not be played in the Hast tomorrow. From a Western angle it would be more to the point to say that a few good games are to be Played in the East. As a matter of fact the West to- morrow has all the bul: of the games with intersectional flavor and with neighborhood importance, Two big intersectional games are on the card. Georgia Tech, one of the leading standard bearers of the South, comes to South Bend to meet Notre Dame and repay the visit that Notre Dame. paid last year, Rlea- tions have always been so cordial between these two teams that they have become almost permanent fix- tures on their schedules. There ure some reasons why the Notre Dame team should not be popular in At- lanta and it is a tribute to the sportsmanship that football develops not only among the players but among tho spectators that the re- iations of these two teams have al- Ways been so friendly. Another intersectional contest that has become rather regular will be played in Detroit when Washington and Jefferson, one of the leading teams of the East, plays the Univer- sity of Detroit. Two very important games’ will feature the “Big Ten" competition Michigan plays Minnesota at Minne apolis, and Illinois meets Iowa at Urbana, Chicago meets Purdue in another interesting game, if not as impor- tant. Ohio State has a breather game against Wooster and Wisconsin get- ting ready for the Notre Dame game next week, has an ©ff-day. Nebraska's game against Missouri will feature the Migsour! Valley schedule. Kansas plays Washington at St. Louis. With Georgia Tech ‘away from home fields the big Southern games will be between Vanderbilt and Ay- burn at Nashville and between Ala- bama and Mississippi at Montgom- ery.

Copyright, 1924, Casper Tribunq, NEW YORK, Oct. 31.—The Yole Army game at New Haven will bo @ real ‘test for both teams. Yale has come through games with ‘Garrison — finishen" when the contests looked hopelessly lost. “The Yale crowd in the stands has tasted the agonies of defeat up to the last few minutes and thon seen the big Blue team pull the garte out of the fire. The Army, up to the time of the Notre Dame game, seeméd to be #0 ing fine. But in that ft looked, by comparison, ponderous and slow. If Yale plays as she has in the earlier games it would be asking to much to expect the kind of a finish that has character minutes of play in her es If West Point does not w: her lethargy and use from the her very best men while they win, sho will not be lik that she has earned another stop toward success.
