The faculty representatives of Ten” also will meet at the same time to give consideration to several new rules governing the sport As a result of t arges of pro- fessionalism filed against D. C. Ger- ber, star tackle of the Wisconsin eleven, it is probable that the faculty representatives will consider the adoption of a rule establishing Oc- tober 1 as the latest date that ineligi- bility charges may be considered. The base ball and track coaches of the “Big Ten” have an agreement under which no cases of ineligibility may be taken up after the start of the season. Some of the foot ball coaches favor a similar agreement for the gridiron season. The athletic directors and facult representatives will hold a joint sion November 30.

"Elevens in Big Contests : Princeton Picked to Defeat Harvard TIGERS APPEAR TO HOLD MARKED EDGE ON RIVALS Crimson, However, Specially Pointed for Game, May Prove Much More Formidable Than It Has Shown in Previous Contests. BY LAWRENCE PERRY. RINCETON, N. J, November 9—In point of a fine tradition tHat extends back nearly fifty years and because they are institutions of national character whose students come from all sections of the the Princeton-Harvard game here tomorrow would seem to take precedence. Teams of the Big Three are de success in the classic Novembe cept th P land, developed essentially with a view to ! he | T series, and, as a rule, it is unwise to ac- | r carlier form as applying to the three-cornered test which con- | cludes the season of Yale, Harvard and Princeton P In other words, when these teams come up to the contests for which they have been preparing all fall they may be expected to show an ex- cellence in fundamentals, a worthy defense and a deviousness and pre- cision on attack—all of which may not have been strongly marked in preceding contests. FootBallFacts WHEN QUARTER BACK MAKES FORWARD PASS Usually some one of the trio oc- cupies some such position as Yale does this season, a team with 2 wealth of experienced material which is able to storm along up to the crucial series | with all sails set, distancing every | opponent without too great strain | But both Princeton and Harvard have not been so favored this season. Both have been beaten once and both have played tie games. Showing Hard to Explain. Just why Harvard should have gone through a season so unsatisfactory : been the case to date is a mys y. Her eleven is composed of a majority of veteran players, and re- cruits, particularly in the backfield ve been of excelient caliber. Prince- son thus far is easier under- stood inasmuch as she started with the necessity of developing an entire- Iy new line with the exception of an end and a guard. Progress thus was slow, and the fact is that those close to the eleven have been well pleased 1o get by the preliminary season with the Joss of Lut one game. Just before the Navy contest Prince- ton coaches began ta see the results of their work and since then the eleven has been coming along very well indeed. So much so that ¢n Sat- rday against Harvard it may be pre. {dicted that the Tigers, win or los will show such form as to enlist the pride of every Princeton mian. There will be a cohesive and well conceived attack, not too narrow in scope, and it will not be an easy eleven against which to score. As for Harvard, there have been re- ports that this year every enerzy was to be bent upon winning the Princeton #ame, since Harvard has not prevailed | over sau_since 1916. To the end that the Tizers might be laid low, ac- cording to the story. the Crimson has held everything secret. has been wil ing to accept even defeat rather than Termit Princeton scouts to obtain a single definite idea concerning the eleven. ENDS AND OTHER BACKS PLAY AS IN RUNNING PLAYS Assuming that the quarterback is to farward pass the ball, how should the other backficld men and the ends play?
