MANY CLEVER PLAYERS -| DESPITE BIG DEMANDS| BY WALT HE foot ball season is now advancing to the point where it shows what men really are delivering the goods. that with even slight modificat tingencies of the season certain stars may go back and other new ones come to the front. It is a matter often of adaptability, but it is this that produces winning teams. Many teams have experiment‘e In some cases this has worked and far as defense is concerned. ER CAMP.

West Virginia has in George Hill a running back who is one of the most versatile in the country. Idaho has in Irving a man whom all foot ball fans love to watch because of his versatility. Yale has a great tackle in Into, and in O'Hearn and Aldrich possesses a pair of backfield men of the best type. California has recenfly lost Muller, one of the star gnds of the season, and it is @ question whether he will get back into play.

Hubbard may be held in reserve and used either as a substitute guard or tackle. Clark, * the 167-pound center, has been given the preference over Bradford. Charlie Buell will be at quarterback, and the i other backs will be Owen and Grat- { wick, with Fitts at fullback. PRINCETON, N. J, November 1— i Coach Bill Roper was well pleased with the efforts of the Princeton foot ball team yesterday in the first / practice of the week, which is to culminate with the battle against Harvard. The Tiger coach put the Orange and Black warriors through defensive dummy scrimmage follow- ing a preliminary drill. The purpose of this scrimmage iwas a thorough defensive drill against the Harvard plays which were employed against the regulars by Nat Poé's Omelette combination. Princeton feels that she has the most car from the Crimson's passing game. The Tigers are therefore concen- trating defense strategy against Harvard’ pen v, relying on Lourie, Garrity, and Cleaves to_furnish the offensive drive behind a line composed of Stinson and Snive- 1y at the ends, Keck and Hooper, tackles: Morgan and Baker, guards, and Wittmer, ta center. NEW HAV] Conn., November 1.— Yale foot ball players have been told { by Head Coach Tad Jones that, despite | their big score against Brown, the| coaches are dissatisfied with both the | attack and defense of the eleven. It was pointed out that Harvard and Princeton will be much stronger be- cause of their defeats by Centre and by Chicago and_the Navy, while Yale ! is apparently feeling satisfled with i accumulating large scores against weak opposition. Yale will get considerable of a bump when the Tigers crash into her, unless the glaring defects of fum- bling, poor passes and handling of opponents’ passcs are remedied, the coaches said. WEST POINT, ., November 1.— Army has begun its drive for the Notre Dame battle Saturday. Fol- lowing the usual Monday blackboard talk, there was a light drill. General satisfaction was expressed with the performance of the substi- tutes against Susquehanna last week. ‘Wood was the only varsity man used in the contest. Johnson's work at quagter was pleasing, and he may play Saturday, as Wilhide's leg injury, received in the Yale game, will prob- ably keep him out of the line-up. French will out indefinitely, and he positively wlll not be able to start against the Hoosiers. Breidster, the siant guard, who was also hurt in the Yale game, is limping badly, and one of the problems will be to find a | strong substitute for his position in the Army line. ANNAPOLIS, 'Md, November 1.— Practice of the Navy eleven yesterday was light and was directed toward preparation for the Bucknell game Saturday, the last home contest, and the Penn State clash in Yhiladelphia a week later. While Bucknell is highly respected and a good game is expected, it will be necessary for. the Navy to save its players for the Penn State battle. Naval Academy tickets for the Army-Navy game November 26 will all go to members of the Navy Ath- letic Association, mostly naval offi- cers and midshipmen, and the chance civillans will have to buy tickets will lars as souvenirs of the battle witlf Centre, Rouillard and Gehrke, Jand has a great punter in Brewer. 1—Harvard had two injured regu- egular backfield, being in thegcollege hance that he will} n, substitute center, also had a bad he Princeton game Saturday. ‘Penn State Team Makes Few Changes in"Contest Hugo Bezdek, Pemn State | foot hall coach, works on the theory that it Is not necessary to be continually el ns i into the game. line-up by sending players three gnmes preceding the claxh with Georgia Tech at the Polo Grounds last Saturday Bezdek made only seven sub- onx-—two against North two d three agaiant Hur- vard.

In the early years of the school, Tech had on the roster of its eleven Harry Hunt, punter, drop- kicker and place-kicker “extraordi- TNEr ¢ afid —ME. curedd bOBONE Kept victory away from Central for two successive campaigns, Hunt came to Tech from Western in- 1903 and that season set a record of thirty-five goals after touchdowns without a_miss, as well as kicking-a number of goals from fleld by drop- kicks and placement. The following year, when Tech and Central clashed for -the championship. nt saved the day for the Manual Tri¥iners. It was a_bitterly fought game in which the Centralites scored edrly, a fumble paving the way for Logan Cunningham to cross the goal. Later, Tech counted, but its touchdown was achieved across the end oi Central's goal line. In those days the try for goal was made from a point on a line passing through the point of touchdown and running parallel with the side line. This made the try for goal a diffi- cult one, but Hunt was equal to the occasion. With only a yard of day- light visible between the posts, Hunt set the ball carefully and sent it spin- ning cleanly across the bar between the uprights. The kick tied the score and the Centralites were unable to break the deadlock. Quite a few boys made gridiron reputations in those days. Bryan Morse and Courty Church were per- forming gallantly for Western, Cun- ningham, Jock Snow, Block-Kipp and Chris_Cox were playing for Central, and Clyde Dunningtog, Beef Field and Harmon Linthicum w&re mainstays at Eastern.€ On the husky Tech squad with Hunt were Tubby Ballenger, Al Duganne, Johnny Herring, Bill Backus and Couptney Gieb.
