Clever Navy Line Overcame Michigan : Service Clash May Settle Eastern Title FORWARD WALL HINDERED WOLVERINES’ AIR ATTACK Sacrificed Player That Five-Man Defense Might Be Formed, But Six Men Stood off Enemy Rush- men and Also Took Good Care of Friedman. BY LAWRENCE PERRY. EW YORK, November 1.—Line play has assumed a significance this season greater than in any year since the forward pass was in- stalled and other changes designed to open up the game were made in the foot ball rules. It remamed, however, for the Navy eleven to give on Saturday at Baltimore the most graphic exposition of the influence of excellent pay up forward in the gen thus far this Fall. There were offensive merits to was a defensive cxhibition. The Wolverines came to the field with the mental sanetion of a sure fire overhead attack and a_strong run- ning game. as they remain- «d in this mood they were dangerous | and like . fi ve the Mid- They had the stuff, no mistake about that.

In such case the decision is more likely to lie with the defense, and so it did at Balti- d that the cock- tn failing to sxes grow out of n helped the Navy cause. Tn the meantime the Navy forwards, nfter checking igan line- the Middie forwards played on a pretty low plane—swarmed into the | backfield and attended to Friedman.

The left side of the Michigan line, especially Baer at tackle, was the section that the Navy dominated most convineingly on running attack al- though, strangely, it was a sudden tch to the right side which let a Navy back loose on the long run that paved the way for a_touchdown. Both Michigan and Navy paired th tackles on the strong side, but the Navy in the backfield threw out two wing backs; one of them was in motion, legitimately, toward his own zoal before the ball was snapped. The other helped take care of the end or tackle. There was quite a little deception in the handling of the ball and usually a path for the run- ner just in or outside left tackle. A tendency to blunders as well as a pervading shakiness was more re- sponsible for the Yale debacle at New Haven than inherent weakness in the Blue. There is no reason why Yale should not swing into November a formidable outfit, if the minds of every one are fixed on the future and the past forgotten. A ban on hys- terla, good work by the physiclans in atching up_injured regulars, and a wholehearted support of Tad Jones in working out of a tough situation, will be very effective. Yost on Friday sald that he feared Minnesota more_than any other con- ference rival. He does well to fear the Gophers, who are coming along at a rapid rate, but a little wholesome dread of Ohio State might not do any harm. One of the hardest coaches in the|o country to beat is Glenn Warner, as Howard Jones and his University of Southern California Trojans found to their cost on Saturday. Incidentally, in Hoffman, a tall, rangy, blond- haired young fullback, Warner ap- pears to have found another Nevers. Hoffnian was not very promising last vear, but in the very first game he nlayed this season he tucked the ball under his arm and made a broken- fleld run for a touchdown that made Warner blink. Since then he has been coming with glant strides. With the Bowlers HEN ducks are breaking against you they sometimes get posi- tively vindictive. For further details, see Joyce, who shot in second place for the Public Buildings and Public Parks outfit last week in the Federal League. 5 Starting with games of 105 and 104, he appeared to be in for a good set, especially since he was working mobile. as smoothly as a fine-running auto- He actually did better shooting in the third game than in either of the first two, but you'd never guess it from the score, which was 85. All he had was nine splits in the 10 boxes and the only spare break that presented itself late in the game so startled him that he missed the pins with both shots. However, since his team lost by a margin of about 40 pins, he scarcely can be charged with contributing much toward the defeat, but he cer- tainly looked discouraged enough for the full fiveman team. Another bowling team has adopted a uniform. The Smithfields will be sporting nifty suits when they tackle the Orrisons Thursday night in the Athletic Club League at Convention With foot ball grabbing so much room in the Sunday paper these day: it 1s impossible to crowd all of the facts and figures of Washington's bowling leagues into the pink section of The Sunday Star.

YALE TO REORGANIZE ELEVEN THIS WEEK NEW HAVEN, Conn., November 1. —7Yale’s coaches will rally its battered foot ball squad today for a stubborn stand against Princeton and Harvard {in the closing games of the season. he Maryland match, scheduled for turday, also must not be considered lightly. The coaches declined to comment on the Army game or to discuss the re- maining matches, but they regard the situation as not without hope. They believe that Noble will round into physical condition for the Princeton game, but no attempt will be made to start him on Saturday. The return of Kline from his home early this week will restore another valuable regular. The Yale coaches were unwilling to state what line-up changes will be ordered in reorganizing the eleven. The glaring weaknesses uncovered in the Army game are certain to be fol- lowed by radical changes, particularly in the rush line. Head Coach Tad Jones has ordered the full squad to report for routine practice today, in an effort to elimi- nate the fumbling which reached its highest point of the season against the Arm; A large part of the dalily drill this week will be aimed at grounding the team In the fundamentals. ‘The coaches pin their hope of vic- tory over Princeton and Harvard in the Improved physical condition of half a dozen first-string players who have heen on the hospital squad the past month. In the rush line, Rich- ards, Wortham and Webster, who played a part of the Army game, sustained no {ll effects and are re- garded as fixtures for the final matches.

WESTERN IS PICKED TO DEFEAT EASTERN Games between Western and East- ern tomorrow and Central and Busi- ness Friday are carded this week in the high school foot ball title series, and both are attracting marked at- ‘| tention because of the fact that no team has yet clinched the crown, al- though the series is entering its final Four of the five schools still have a chance for the title, and Cen- tral, the other, may tie for it. Western is regarded as likely to conquer Eastern despite the fact that “Huck’ Hilleary, its fleet little quar- ter, will be out of the game with an injured ankle. Eastern, however, showed considerable against Central and may give the Georgetown grid- men a tougher argument than ex- pected. Business, which, in the opinion of many, is the strongest eleven among the five high schools despite the fact that it is not leading the titular race, should, if it shows anything like the form displayed in its last game against Eastern, take the measure of Central. The Mount Pleasant war- riors, however, showed _decidedly stronger in their tilt with Tech than in other series games, and may offer the Stenographers brisk opposition. —————————— moved into_second place with three wins from Hugh Rellly Co.

By the Associated Press. EW YORK, November 1.—Foot ball critics who have been making records this season for wrong guesses today were inclined to the belief that the mythical Eastern title would be settled when the hoofs of an Army mule and the horns of a Navy goat battle i Chicago November 27. The Sailors, in fine condition after their victory over Michigan, have nothing more serious on the schedule before the Army game than Wes: Virginia Wesleyan, which managed to cross Boston College’s goal line for the first time it has been done this season, and Georgetown, the high scorer of the East, with 231 points. Army, having walloped Yale, can expect no serious opposition fro Franklin and Marshall and Ursinus, in the Yankee Stadium November 13 cal effect on the Eastern ranking.

On the western side of the bay rock running from one to eight and nine pounds are being caught, but the big “sea horses” seem to prefer the deeper water on the Eastern Shore, and over there fish weighing as much as 24 pounds were landed during the past week. One party fishing at Tilghman Island landed 220 rocks and blues, running from 3 to 12 pounds. Trolling at Herring Bay, William P. Beckwith, Norman Stenz and son George, 6% years old, landed 40 rock and two trout, ranging from 1% to 8 pounds, the largest beinz 26 i !inches long. The youngster caught the first one, a 3-pounder, on a pole. The balance of his catch was made with a handline. Coached by his father and Beckwith, the little fellow very handily brought his fish up to net and only lost two during the six hours of sport. This party used number 1 drones and about six ounces of lead. A week ago yesterday there were twelve or fourteen boats trolling off Herring Bay and Chesapeake Beach.
