32 SP Penn to Figure in Intersectional Game With Chicago. Yale Sure to Have Difficulty in Combating Army’s Great Array of Backs. BY H. C. BYRD. VERY one of the i elever has a game Saturday that is likel its mettle to the utmost. One, Pennsylvania. goes to the Mid- dle West to meet Chicago, but all the otners are playing among themselves, Harvard has Dartmouth at Cambridge, another strong Army | Princeton and Cornell open a e, and State goes Fracuse. 3 Duke | at Ann and probably ts ha ar Chicago East Philadelphia, and what it found Quakertown was not to its liking, ore by which it _los However, Chics thinks the ould be different this | time. The so-called hidden ball offense of Pennsylvania is not likely to prove so0 bothersome. And Chicago is much ger now than it was last season, ctory over Purdue, which easily heat Harvard, indicates anything. Pennsylvania beat Brown two weeks ago, but Saturday’ fell before Penn State, 20 to 0. in what is about as dis- astrous a defeat as can be encoun-| tered by a Pennsylvania eleven. Harvard managed to beat Dart- mouth last Fail by 16 to 12. The New Hampshire eleven is strong and ex- pects at least an even chance against the Crimson, notwithstanding the great improvement shown Saturday by the latter in winning from Hol Cross. Universit | ol in | Elis Face Tough Task. undoubtedly remember: pame it lost to Army las and _when Yale remembers in that way Yale is not an easy foe to face. But Army has enough men and seems able to take care of itself under any other than extraordinary circumstances. It is one thing to whale the life out of a weakened op- penent and quite another to take the measure of one imbued with hizh <o backed by experience and power. In Wilson, Cagle and Murrell, it is doubtful if any team has a better trio of backs. Certainly they are far more experienced than any hacks be- hind the Yale line. Murrell was a great fullback at Minnesota, Cagle a good halfhack at Louisiana State and Wilson an all-Americn player at Penn State. It is not easy for a college team to beat that kind of a combina- tion. Cornell and Princeton are heginning an alliance that is_expected by the former to furnish it with an excel- lent big Eastern contest which has been lacking on its previous schedules and by the latter to take ! the place of some of the other connec- tions voluntarily relinquished. Just how the game will turn out, as a tech- nical and popular exposition of grid- iron activity, is certain to be the sub- Ject of much conjecture by those fa- miliar with foot ball. Penn State undoubtedly elated by a | Yale that t Oc- victory that was sweeter to it than | any other it could have won, meets | Syracuse. Penn State won last year 10 to 0. Rezdek seems to have another strong eleven at State College, and certainly is working under conditions much more congenial to him than they +have been for the last two years. And Ancidentally, it is likely that the de. feat of Penn is only a forerunner of enerally better results. Some other games in the East, while thev do not measure up in general in- terest to those mentioned, as actual ‘demonstrations of good foot hall, should fall very little, if any, behind those hetween the bigger schools. JLafayette and Washington and Jeffer- son are likely to put up a great strug- gle. Pittsburgh and Carnegie Tech have a bitter rivalry over which to contend, and Georgetown and West Virginia ought to do some real bat- 4ling here. Many things happen on a foot ball fleld that are never seen by the spec- tators that have great influence on spectacular bits of play for which another plaver gets almost entire credit. Take that runback of a punt by Roberts, which won for Maryland over Virginia Polytechnic Institute last week at Norfolk. Roberts made the run and deserves all the praise that has been bestowed on him. for his splendid effort, but he never ‘would have reached within. 35 yards of the goal line had it not been for Jack Keenan, husky guard. It was Keenan wko cleared out Peake, V. P. 1. quarterback, who was rushing Roberts to tackle him. Peake the week before had twice caught Galloway, star Colgate back, after the latter had got clear and prevented scores that would have beaten his team, and he probably would have got Roberts the same way had it not been that Keenan struck him just as he was about to make & tackle. Good guards never get the credit that is due for the part they play in a foot ball game, because there are® probably no more valuable men jon a team and no others on whom #0 much depends both for successful offense as well as successful defene, It be.ins to appear that Geo.gla and Grovgia Tech may battle for the - outh- St | Saturday Georgia Tech beat Ala ! group will show their ORTS. they fac. at Atlanta in November, Both are going their merry way and so far no c«lven has proved strong enough to take the measure of either. am llace Wade, two t uchdowns, and W Alabama coach, says that it was the best Tech team he ever has seen. Georgia, after beating Yale, was ex- pected to have something of a let-down ard time against Furman, sup- posedly an exceptionally strong out- it but instead of a let-down it came through with a victory by five touch- downs. With the interest in that game that always exists, even when one team may completely outclass the other, no field in the South is even anywhere wear big enough to hold the people that would like to watch it, but with both teams exceptionally strong and possibly undefeated, interest will be redoubled.

OCTOBER 19, 1927, | | Many Big Grid Contests Saturday : Love Is Backbone of Foot Ball, Yost Declar ALL OF LEADING EASTERN TEAMS WILL SEE ACTION EACH GREAT T es ' MAKES COLLEGE PASTIME ER, HE SAYS [Famous Michigan Athletic Leader Declares That Loyalty to School, Pals and Team Makes between now and the time Georgia and Georgia Tech play. This modern game of foot ball is almost impossible as far as predicting what results may be. One week a team seems good enough to beat any other eleven, and the next week the same team curls up and takes a beating at the hands of a2 much weaker combination. Either corgia or Georgia Tech may take a whipping any time from some team not figured in the running with either of thems but right now they certainly seem to be on top of the piie, with the possible exception of Vanderbilt, which has yet to play a conference same. Vanderbilt plays in its first confer- ence game this week, meeting Tulane. The Nashville eleven lost to Texas last week, but probably expects to trim the New Orleans school. 1t will be interesting to note what Georgia Tech does against Notre Dame this year when they meet, No- vember 5, at South Bend. Both have been main exponents of the shift play, but it seems that the rules to curtail the shift have not affected them very adversely. Alexander of Georgi Tech and Rockne of Notre Dame are friends, and the former always has claimed that Notre Dame has the greatest team speed of all foot ball elevents. That is, Notre Dame may not have some men as fast as some men of other teams, but as a whole its eleven is far faster than any other. G. W.-FORDHAM FRAY SET FOR 1 0'CLOCK George Washington's foot ball eleven will play its important game with Fordham at Central Stadium here | Saturday, starting at 1 o’clock. While this is an exceedingly attrac- | tive contest, the biggest game here | Saturday is the annual clash between Georgetown and West Virginia at Clark Griffith Stadium, which will start at 2:30. Aside from the Colonials and Hill- toppers all other elevens of the local ares on foreign gridirons. Maryand will go to Richmond to meet Virginia Military Institute in a Southern Conference “game, Catholic University will travel to Worcester to engage Holy Cross, Gallaudet will take on Temple at Philadelphia, and Ameri- can University will engage William and Marry. A squad of 30 Catholic U. players will leave for Worcester tomorrow night at 7:30 o’clock. The Cardinals, so Coach McAuliffe announces, doubtless will start with their entire regilar line-up. In preparation for the Temple game Gallaudet was to scrimmage this aft- ernoon with the Tank Corps eleven at Camp Meade. Capt. Byouk, the Ken- dall Greeners leading performer, will not play against Temple, as his bruised leg is not vet healed. Marshall is holding forth for Byouk and doing creditably, too. WIDE HURTS_.HIS KNEE AND MUST TAKE A REST By the Associated Press. Edvin Wide, famous Swedish run- ner, has suffered a knee injury, ac- cording to information from Sweden, which may keep him out of track competition for some time. Neither Wide, Paavo Nurmi, his Finnish rival, nor Dr. Otto Peltzer, noted German middle-distance star, is expected to come to the United States for the indoor track season fore. going invitations to do so in prefer- ence to focusing on preparations at home for the 1928 Olympics.

Yale has an unusual squad of foot ball gian Nine of the first-string | eleven are six feet or over, while among the reserves, Ladd, a tackle, | is six feet six inches tall and Miner six feet four. The prize for height, however, goes to a freshman tackle, Fred Weicker, who towers six feet eight inches and | has the official distinction of being the | tallest individual ever to enter lhe; New Haven school GRIDIRON FLIPFLOPS EARLIER THAN USUAL By the Associated Pres College foot ball is putting on its| flipflops earlier than usual this y ‘Where the “dope” usually is str enough to weather most of Octob shocks, it has already been k against the ropes by -a s form somersaults. It will be a topsy- turvy season, as bewildering to keep up with as the rule changes, if N vember unfolds anything like the up- sets that October already has ushered in. The climax battles are yet to come, but the carnage so far finds defeat escaped by only one of the elght major teams that finished the 1926 campalgn unbeaten. Lafayette, the only Eastern team neither conquered nor tied in 1926, is the only survivor of the unbeaten brigade and even this team has one tie marked against its record so far this season. The Maroon juggernaut ran into unexpected opposition from ‘West Virginia last S8aturday and bare- 1y escaped with a 7-7 score. Lafayette may stumble this week against an old rival, Washington and Jefferson, to complete the downfall of last sea- son’s pace setters, Alabama_and Stanford, intersec- tional rivals who fought to a tie in last New Year day post-season battle after mopping up all rivals previously, met swift and sudden downfall this season. Georgia Tech’s golden tor- nado swept over Alabama last week, handing the crimson tide its first de- feat in three years. Little St. Mary's College toppled Stanford rather un- ceremonious, 16 to 0.

HISTORY MAY REPEAT IN BIG GRID CONTEST EASTON, Pa., October 19.—Will| history be repeated on the gridiron | here next Saturday afternoon? That is a question that at pres is causing considerable worry those who wish Lafayette well. On an October afternoon back in 1922 on the Polo Grounds in New York, Lafayette and Washington and | Jefferson fought one of the mo ter battles that has ever been between two college elevens. vere riding high on the crest of vic- Tafayete went into that game with a record of 17 consecutive victories. W. and J. faced the Maroon with a similar number of games behind in which a Teverse had not been suffered. The Presidents, however, had played | a tie match. Lafavette left the Polo | Grounds a defeated team that after- noon, beaten by a single point.

In victory and in defeat, the plav of this 190-pouna 1ad from Lynch- burg has been consiistent. he is equally good in carrying the ball himself or, when others are running, in preparing the way by interference and blocking. As a defensive full- back he is probably without an equal in Virginia today. Hutter led the Cavaliér running at- tack against V. M. I. last Saturday. When his teammates failed to gain save through the air, he charged over the guards and off the tackles for | gains of from one to a dozen yards. | Time and again he drove with such force that several men working to- gether were needed to stop him. Four years ago Hutter entered the university from Virginia Episcopal School, where he had won a reputa- tion. He was on the undefeated first- ar team of 1924, and for two seas ns he has had a regular place in the Tnjuries received son prevented Hutter t his best in Novem- early las from appearing ber games, but he is making up for | lost time_this year. ‘When Virginia meets Virginia Poly- technic Institute next aturday after- noon on Lambeth Ficld, Hutter will be counted on to stop the fast Tech runners by backing up the line.
