DEFEAT OF OHIO STATE AND YALE UPSET DOPE Moment’s Carelessness by the Blue Responsible for Loss of Ba_ttle to Contests Rema Harvard—Three Big in on Program. BY WALTER CAMP. ' 3 cases of Yale and Ohio State. Yale, undeieated in the season, 2 OOT BALL games played last Saturday crushed the hopes of more than one team for a share in the final honors of the waning season, but the two biggest disappointnients to their followers were in the led Harvard at half time of its final game, and in the third period had actually worked up the field against a heavy wind into what looked like scoring territory. stalled and Harvard kicked cut of danger. so well, there appeared to be no chance for Harvard to Then their attack with Yale going core. Then came Even then a4 moment's carelessness, and, as in the Princeton-Harvard game, that moment of slackness preved to be the turning point of the contest. Yale punted and more than half her men were slow and sluggish in going down the field just as Harvard backs had been<“letting George do it,” when Gilroy’s famous run started at Princeton. Buell caught the ball and started up the fleld, turning to his right, and before Yale waked up to what was happening he was tearing along past midfield and into Yale territory be- hind good interference. For 45 yards he ran until the Yale back finally dropped him. But the I~bies .had turned and there was Harvard right at Yale’s goal. Then the sides changed for the beginning of the fourth period and Owen smashed the Yale line for nine yards and on the next play went over for a touchdown. That wi the end of the game, and Harvard, in spite of a temporary brace by the Blue, which carried the ball well up into Harvard territory. kept the upper hand and later added & fleld goal. So Yale" spirations for a cham- pionship team went aglimmering. At the same time Ohio State was going into eclipse as a joint claimant for the western conference cnampionship at the hands of Illinois. This victory will be some balm to the feelings of Zuppke's men for a bad season. Stagg’s Chicago University team barely squeezed out a victory over Richardson's Wisconsin aggregation by a fleld kick by Romney. The University of California won the Pacific coast championship by Iit- erally swamping Stanford, but the Palo Alto boys succeeded in scoring against their powerful opponents. What eastern team will go to the coast and dare tackle these world- beaters? They will certainly have their work cut out for them. Every foot ball enthusiast nmow is looking forward to the Pennsylvan! State-Pittsburgh game at Pittsburgh, the Cornell-Pennsylvania game at Philadelphia, and the Army-Navy ®ame at New York as the bits of final foot ball of the season of 1921. (Copyright, 1921.) ENTIRE 1921 HARVARD BACKFIELD T0 RETURN CAMBRIDGE, Mass., November 22.— The prospective task of molding.a 1922 Harvard varsity eleven w: ened for coach Bob Fisher todaf when Roscoe Fitts, right halfback, and Phil Coburn, faullback, announced that they would, return to college next year. This makes available in prospect next fall the entire Crimson varsity backfield that started against Princeton and Yate: : Fitts and Co- \ burn were expected to be graduated in June. Owen at left halfback and Beell at quarterback complete the backfield, leaving to Coach Flsher the problem of building a new line for 1922, with the veterans Clark at center and Hubbard at right guard, forming the nucleus. Yale, with all but six of the twenty- one first string men who played Harvard available, apparently has the brightest prospects of big three teams for 1922, & Capt. Malcolm Aldrich, halled ‘ms one of the greatest captains that ever led the Blue, will be graduated in as will Guernsey, the right ; Sturm, right. ens Speiden, a sub halfback: Miller, a sub tackle, and Quaile, who was at tackle in the final quarter of the Harvard game. ‘This leaves Hulman, Blair and Deaver, ends; Into and Diller, tack- les; Cruikshank and Cross, guards; Landis and Norris, centers; O'Hearn and Becket, guarterbacks, and Mal lory, Jordan, Knapp and W|x£t. hal backs, as a nucleus for the 1922 squa Clark, center, and Hubbard, right guard, will be availabe for the 1922 Harvard line. icomber and Croick- cr, ends; Tie and Capt. .Kane, tackles, and Brown, right guard, allt will be graduateds Capt.

PRINCETON-NAVY GAME NEXT YEAR UNLIKELY PRINCETON, N. J.,, November 22— There i8 a persistent rumor about the Princeton campus to the effect that the Tiger football eleven will not play the Navy next fall. No official announcement has been made concerning the matter, and none is expected until the full schedule is announced, but the undergraduates have been discussing the question for some time. Princeton will journey to Chicago { some time in October to meet the Ma- roon in & return match, according to an agreement entered into a year ago, and will, of course, also make a trip to Cambridge to meet Harvard. ‘With the Chicago, Harvard and Yale battles certain, a game with the Navy would have to be played about the third Saturday of the season, proba~ bly the week before the trip west. Experience has taught the Tigers that both the Midshipmen and Maroon elevens are capable of rising to great heights and that neither can be taken a3 a matter of course. Hence, the only possible arrange- ment of the schedule bringing Prince- ton against Navy and Chicago and then against Harvard and Yale in rapid succession seems patently too diffi- cult for any team. turday : American Fencers Win International Tfophy CAPTURE 7 OF 12 FINAL CONTESTS WITH BRITONS Victories With Saber in Ne'v'v York, Added to Triumphs in Washington, Give Yankees ° 24 Bouts to Visitors’ 18."

FOUR EAST-WEST GAMES BETWEEN SCHOOL TEAMS C ten, Army, Rutgers and Pittsburgh, the little brothers of the colleges, the high school elevens, have taken up the fight with the juniors of the east. Four squads from Chicago go east thig week to emulate the work of the colleges. Deerfield High School, champion of the suburban league here, started the procession last night. The team left for Boston and wili Mase., High School Thursday morning. Proviso High School of the suburban league, leaves tomorrow for Fitch- burg, northwest of Boston. 'TWO GOOD GRID BATTLES IHERE THANKSGIVING DAY/ PRACTICE UNTIL YMAS with an entertainment as delectable as could be desired. With WASHINGTON foot ball fans on Thanksgiving day will be provided _Cnho!ic University and George ‘Washington meeting in Cen- tral sted_mm at 12:30 o'clock and Georgetown and Bethany clashing on the gridiren “. American League Park at 2:30, the admirers’ of the autumn sport will have an opportunity of witnessing a pair of games that |should be unusually well contested. The three local squads are being This Bethany team, by the way, iIs a much different eleven than the one which appeared here twice last sea- son. In place of the light forwards that bucked their “strength against George Washington and Georgetown last season the Bisons have a line averaging about 193 pounds. It has been improved from end to end, and should be able to givg the sturdy Hilltop forwards a real battle. Inci- dentally, the Blue and: Gray will be outweighed in the line, if reports of In-e Bethany weights dre true, for Georgetown's rush men average around 190 pounds. ¢ The Bisons’ present forward combi- nation is about the best that they ever have had. Taking the place of Hughes, the 168-pound center now playing with George Washington, is Balley, @ 215-pound giant, pho has been playing a stellar game this sea- son. Lattoe's shoes at guard have been filled by Adkins, a boy who packs 180 pounds. In Gwinn's place at. tackle there is Broadley, who ‘weighs 238 pounds, and Shoemake, a punter of ability, has displaced Kidder on the other side of the line. The ends are carried over from last year. Roark and Smith make just about as good a pair of flankers as can be found in this part of the coun- try. In the backfleld Randloph, last year's fullback, has-taken the place of Elder at half, while Jean is playing full. Kelley is stead of half as before; and Payne, a hulky,l’l-nollnder. is the other half- back. 'This combination averages 189 pounds—some weight for Georgetown to_stop: g ‘The Bisons will leave Bethany, W. Va., tonight and should arrive here whose beyond the Qfdinary— aying at quarter in- | carefully. primed for the engagements, and the West Virginians will bring to Washington an eleven that has enjoyed quite a successful season. in time for a couple of workouts at American League Park tomorrow. The team came out of the 67-to-0 fracas with West Virginia Wesleyan last Saturday in excellent condition and is quite confident of its ability to subdue the Hilltoppers. ¥ _George Washington and Catholic University this afternoon are being sent through their last hard work- outs in preparation for their big clash. While neither te: has had 8an especially successful season, each has shown enough strength in early games to make it feared by its rival, amd the meeting Thursday probably will prove unusually interesting. Both the Hatchetites and the Brooklanders have depended much upon a forward passing game this fall, so the Thanksgiving battle is likely to be preductive of some brilliant aerial attack. ' Maryland's engagement with North Carolina State in Baltimore on Tur- key. day will determine the old line|7:3 team’s rating in the south Atlantic section. The Engineers have defeat- ed North Carolina University, victor over Maryland last month, so a Black and Gold success Thursday would put that eleven well up in the ranking. The College Parkers will be able to send their full strength against the West Raleigh gregation, all of the cripples who have been out of play {:lr several weeks being ready for ac- on. IPENN T0 CONTINUE GRID PHILADELPHIA, November 22.— Although the regular foot ball sea- son at the University of Pennsylvania closes with the Cornell game Thanks- giving day, foot ball practice will continue until the - Christmas holl-] days. The varsity and regular fresh- men squads, however, will not par- ticipate. In making this announcement to- day, Coach Heisman said there were 500 foot ball players in the university who had been recommended to him by the alumni. “I am going to seek these men out,” he added, “and hold practice during December. .1 am go- ing to get out every man who de- sires to play foot ball and teach him the rudiments. I will form a league, if_necessary, to stimulate interest. e varsity and second-string men will®be excused, as will the regular freshman squad. The object is to get hold of the men who have not been out this fall, and work them so that | when spring practice rolls around I will be able to select a fitting squad for the preliminary training camp in September.” | ' INDEPENDENT ELEVENS | ‘Washington Athletie Club, though playing in the 120-pound class, is pre- pared to meet any eleven in the 125- pound division. Challenges will be received by Manager Ambrogi over telzphono North 2028 between 7 and - m. p. ‘Trinity Athletie Club, which cla! the 115-pound championship of Wasl ington, will play & double-header Thanksgiving day. West- End Ath- letic Club will be encountered in the morning at 10 o'clock and Lexington Athletic Club will be met at 3.

The American team entered last night's competition with seventeen victories against thirteen for their opponents scored in Washington on Friday and Saturday nights with the foil and epee. 'Eleven of the Ameri- can victories had been scored with folls,.while six were registered with the epec. The British fencers had five victories with the foils and eight with the epee. This was the total score after thirty-two matches had been played, two double touches hav- ing been made with the epee. Dimond Wins Declsive Beut. Sergt. Dimond's deciding victory last night was scored over Col. Ron- ald B. Campbell, D. 8. C, by 5 to 4. The match was as close and exciting as the score indicates, and aroused in- tense interest and enthusiasm among the several hundred spectators who thronged the ballroom at the Astor to see the deciding contests of the in- ternational match. His victory over Col. Campbell was Dimond's second of the evening, he having previously defeuted Lieut. Col. A. Ridiey-Martin to 1. Dimond was not the hero of the United States team, however. Chaun- dey McPherson, national fencing champion, turned in three victories over the invading Englishmen, while Sherman Hall, former national foils champion and a fellow club member of Melrherson's at the New York Ath- letic Club, registered a brace of tri- umphs.
