30 SP ORTS. PAIR OF STRONG ELEVENS E FOR GAMES COME HER Washington and Lee Opposes Maryland and Marines Stack Up Against Catholic U. in What Are Sure to Be Strenuous Battles. BY H. C. BYRD. ASHINGTON AND LEE and Marines come here to- morrow for games with Maryland and Catholic Uni- versity with two of the strongest elevens s duled to visit here this season. The first mentioned has been defeated only once, then by Princeton in a close, hard game, while Marines has yet to finish a game on the short end of a score. Maryland and Catholic University each has been defeated once out of five starts, so the local universities ought to furnish real opposition for the stellar line-ups they | are to face. Both games begin at 2:30 pm. Washington and Lee has a brilliant backfield-and a big, powerful line that have so far been able to give excel- lent accounts of themselves. The backfleld is made up of a quartet of good ball carriers in the open field and hard line smashers, while it was the power and aggressiveness of the forwards that really wiped up Ken- tucky last week, 25 to 0. Kentucky put up a good game against Wash- ington and Lee during the first half, but In the second its forward wall be- gan to crumble before the onslaught of seven experienced and aggressive players who constitute the Generals’ first line of attack and defense. And when Washington and Lee's line beat Kentucky’s line into submission, it was simply a procession of gains for the Virginians. Spotts Is W. & L. Star. Star of the W. & L. line is,Spotts, ‘who has been the bright light at cen- ter on the basket ball team as well as at end on the foot ball squad. And that basket ball experifence seems to have made Spotts the best forward pass receiver in the section; at least, he has done so well that he has come to be regarded in that light. Howe and White are the best ball toters in the W. & L. backfield, and both are good. The former does most of the open fleld work and end run- ning and the latter the banging into the line. White is leading scorer of all the backs in the State of Virginia. Maryland will oppose this array with a team that has at times played brilliant foot ball, and at others given a rather excellent display of what con- stitutes just the opposite. It is not known how the team will line up ‘when the first whistle blows, but in all ‘Washington and Lee has been the last two seasons, and for tomorrow’'s game is home- 1 sections of thin, victor another, coming day, and from a the State former students will gather. | Washington and Lee's band is com- ing up and a goodly part of the stu- dent body with it. Marines will have in their line-up against Catholic University four men wio stand out as brilliant performers and who undoubtedly will be thorns in €. U.'s side. Levy and Shapley in the backfleld and Wigmore and at tackles are excellent far better than the usual good man in college ranks. So far no team has been able to take the measure of the Marines, and Marine followers do not figure that C will be able to break the record tomorrow. Willlams and Mary made things hot for them for awhile, but generally in their games this Fall the Quantico eleven has outclassed its opponents in ground gaining and gen- eral effectiveness on the field. The team seems just about as strong as any eleven that has worn Marine Corps colo} Tf Catholic University can beat the Marines tomorrow, it will have ac- complished a feat of which it may well feel proud. The Brooklanders have a good deal of incentive to play great foot ball, because a win over the Marines should give them a standing they do not now possess and which they have a chance to win in no other game on their schedule. ‘While Catholic U. will miss Foley, its quarterback and gackfleld ace, it is fortunate in having a fine under- study in Murphy, who also is a good runner with the ball, passer and punter. Foley's experience and gen- eralship, though, doubless will be greatly missed. Marines ought to defeat C. U., but that does not mean that the game will not be productive of g little of every- thing in the way of good foot ball. No doubt the two teams will battle for every inch of ground. Georgetown Gets Respite. Of the other four local elevens, two play on their home flelds and two away. Georgetown has a contest with Waynesburg that it should win about as it pleases at American League Park, while American Uni- versity, with its weakened squad, may not have things so easy against Blue Ridge. George Washington goes to College- probability it will not be far from that which has started in previous con- tests. Three men have had slight in- Juries, but all seem to have mended fairly well. Every indication is that the game ubbornly fought. If it is not it will be the first one between the two schools that has not been.

In other words, the Buff and Blue apparently has an easy contest, one it should win by a comfortable margin.

But Chicago this year is one of those elevens upon which the star of destiny seems to be shining. With a person- nel of lesser class than the Buckeye outfit, the Maroons are welded in a team spirit which is likely to prevail over a rival whose coach is being buf- feted by bull-mouthed criticism, and whose players evidently have been torn by internal dissension. Ohio has it in her to rise supreme above her Whether she will or not is troubles, another question. Nebraska is likely to come into her own any day now.

Howard Jones has been bringing the This the So Trojans along through harder opposi- tion than the Bears have met and the team has done creditably. California is looked upon as another of those Berkeley wonder teams, but the writer has an idea that the Los Angeles eleven is going to win. Two great rival tackles will be on the field, Hibbs and Coltrin. Cornell looks as though she had a good chance to defeat Columbia and in the intersectional game at Cambridge, Indiana would appear to have the edge over Harvard. ‘Wisconsin, which is a team greatly improved over recent years, is likely to give Minnesota & rough-and.ready battle, but in view of the intrinsic strength of the Gophers the chance of victory seems to incline in their direc- tion. Army Has Hard Game. ‘West Point will see the Army in ac- tion against Bucknell.

New York University should defeat Colgate. Georgia Tech has been going swong in the South and is one of the well as in tempered veterunll best teams below the Mason and Dixon line, but in meeting Notre Dame on Cartier Field it is lkely that the sons of Dixie will be biting off more than they can chew. The Navy is likely to defeat Penn- sylvania. Unless Texas can stop Southern Methodist's great passing attack she will lose this game; chances seem against her checking 8. M. U.'s over- head threat. Stanford should defeat Oregon. Georgla will beat Tulane. ‘West Virginia-Carnegie is a tough game to pick, but all in all the writer likes West Virginia's chances. Denver has a good chance to defeat Iowa if the team can stand the low altitude of the Corn Belt. Drake and Kansas will probably have a nip-and-tuck battle, with Drake a Iikely winner, basing judgment on her experience against high-class opponents. Utah will beat the Colorado Aggies. YALE PAPER URGES UNPAID GRID TUTOR By the Associated Press. NEW HAVEN, Conn., October 28.— Return to “something like the unpaid coaching system of former days, when “In consequence of T. A. D. Jones' retirement at the end of this season, Yale looks about for his suc- cessor as coach of the foot ball menage,” is suggested in the Yale Alumni Weekly, which appears today. “We hope that full consideration will be given the question whether Yale cannot at that time make a rad- ical change as regards her foot ball coaching and go back to something like the unpald coach system of for- mer days,” says the Weekly. “Intercolleglate foot ball, within bounds,” it asserts, “is wholly desir- able, as it gives a fillip to the sport and something to work for by the under- graduate body. Competent coaching for the teams so that as individuals they know how to play and as teams what plays to attempt under the vary- ing conditions of a hard game, is essential, “It would meem that these things could be secured without paying the is coach and his staff of assistants, just as readily as paying them. We are for a complete reversal of practice in this regard, and for careful considera- tion of the question whether this can- not be done now, when a new arrange- ment to begin next year is open to us. * * ® “Foot ball 1s a college game and for the benefit of the undergraduates.

Georgia Tech, Without Shift, Threatens Notre Dame Team ATLANTA, October 28.—The Golden Tornado ef Georgla Tech is blowing again, blowing with old-time force to- ward the supremacy it held in South- ern foot ball for many years. Already Alabama, three years champlon; Tulane, Virginia Military Institute and North Carolina have been conquered. Ahead are Vander- bilt, Louisiana State, Auburn and Georgia, and the only intersectional game of the season, Notre Dame. ‘The Tornado battles Knute Rockne's men in South Bend, In?, tomorrow, with its greatest opportunity for vie- tory since the two institutions have been Tulln‘ annually. T’l"i:h te’exing revail e e fact 'aces "thfi flmu Dameé team recognized as one of the strongest in the country. Last season, Tech, with a much weaker team than the pres- ent, held Notre Dame to a 12 to 0 victory. Far different from any of the elev. ens it has turned out in the past, Tech is known this year as the “shift- less tornado.”. When training season opened Coach William A. Alexander announced the famous Tech shift had been abandoned and a new offense would be developed. As long as John Heisman was at the helm of the coaching staff Tech had great success with the shift and its playing brought national recog- nition in intersectional battles, but in the years since then the Tornado gradually lost its power. A varied, baffling and apparently much_stronger attack now is em- ployed. The team huddles around each other in a circle, with the quar- terback in the center calling out the signals, instead of telling the players directly where the play will be run. The ends play close to the tackles in order to box opposing flankmen. The quarterback stands with his back to the center. Sometimes the center shoots the ball into the quarterback’s hands, only an inch or two away. Again, the quarterback darts quickly with the passage of the ball to another back. Sometimes he runs with the ball himself. Occasionally he relays the center's snap to another back. In other instances he darts quickly in direction of the play and in others he goes in the opposite direction. His position and movements are designed to hide the direction of the ball and the following play. Modern Foot Ball Is Better Than Old Game, Edwards Says By the Associated Prest EW YORK, October 28.—Other old timers, such as Joe Becham, Cornell ‘97, may point with pride to the “gen- uine foot ball” they played in the “Good Old Days” and view with disdain “the game that’s played today,” but “Big Bill” Edwards of Princeton wants himself set down on the side of the modern game. Although himself an outstanding and typical representative of the old- style game, to which he applied his 265-pounds net of solid muscle in his playing days, Big Bill believes the modern game which lays the em- phasis on speed “is better in every way—taster, more spectacular and a better game to watch.” “Players may not have to stand the endurance test as we did in those days when the same 22 men played steadlly for 30 or 35 minutes or more, but you don’t find them going stale nowadays from too much work as they did then,” Edwards said. “You don’t find so many serious injuries, either. “It's the new game that's really saved foot ball by reducing the num- ber and seriousness of the casualties. “The practice of running in many substitutes these days speeds up the game and gives men .of different cali- ber a_chance to show what they can do. It isn't any sign the players have less staying power than they used to have.” Instead of being a concession to the “weakened man power” of the present, as Col. Beacham asserted recently at Ithaca, the forward pass in the former Princeton player’s opinion “is an at- tractive feature of the modern style of play which has brought the ball out into the open where the spectators can see it.” In the old days the crowd rarely saw the ball, he went on. “Now the plays are more deceptive, more open and easier to follow.” In marked contrast Col. Beacham declared: ‘Players of the old days look upon the forward pass with great disapproval—but perhaps the changes are necessary to accommodate our weakened man power—nowadays, the team will be playing excellent foot ball and some guy will throw a for- ward pass and the contest will de- generate into a game of ‘come chase me, Charlie.’” “In its fundamentals the game hasn’t changed much after all,” be- lieves Big Bill. “The old smashing line play is just as important as ever. As the line goes so goes the team,” declared the one time Tiger captain. Playing at about the same time, both Beacham of Cornell and Edwards of Princeton lost the last game they played against the rival institution.

St. John's and George Washington Freshmen were to meet at the Tidal Basin in the only other game set for a local fleld. Devitt and Calvert Hall were to come together in Baltimore, and Emerson and Georgetown Prep were to clash at Garrett Park. “FOOLPROOF” WATCH TO BE USED IN EAST By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, October 28.—The “fool- proof” timeplece, constructed for use by foot ball officials and adopted re- cently at Western Conference games, has gained a foothold in the East. For the first time the nmew watch will be introduced at a Harvard con- test tomorrow, when Horween’s eleven meets Indiana. J. J. Lipp, the de- signer, will be one of the officials at the game. The timer consists of two separate mechanisms—one for registering the time of play and the other for record- ing time out. The watch has a 75- minute dial, representing the four 15-minute periods and the 15-minute intermission between halves. In addition notations appear on the dial to remind officials of their duties under the rules at specific intervals. There is a lug control for starting and stopping each movement. The snap back to zero is by a stem press with a safe-locking device which prevents losing the time even if the watch is dropped or hit by the ball, V. M. I. IS TUNING UP. LEXINGTON, Va., October 27.— Rough work in preparation for the home-coming game with Davidson College at Davidson is over, and mem- bers of the V. M. I squad are en- gaged in putting the finishing touches on the offensive they expect to flash Saturday. “TROUSERS Dlea i ke, VIRGINIA UNCERTAIN AS TO ITS LINE-UP UNIVERSITY, Va., October 28.— Twenty-six Virginia varsity players have gone to Knoxville, where the University of Tennessee is to be played Saturday afternoon. How Virginia will line up against Tennessee is not known, for exactly the same combination of players was not used together any two afternoons this week. Capt. Cardwell and Luke, the only veterans in the line, will be in the tackles, Symington and Daniel in the guard positions and Taylor will play center. But most of the other places are uncertain. Flippin probably will be able to take his place on one end, but Turner is not likely to be in shape to flll the other. This means that Hofheimer will fill Turner’s shoes, as he did those of Flippin last week. Hushion, veteran quarterback, will start in his regular position and Sloan seems likely to be in one of the halves. If he recovers from injuries received against V, P, I. Hutter will be at full- back, but if he is kept out of action it will be hard to say who will start. Pendleton went in against Tech when Hutter was hurt, but this other veteran back was also numbered among the cripples at the end of the game., Hardeen is next in line for the place, but it is by no means cer- tain that he will be called. Either Gus Kaminer or Lefty Close will prob- ably be paired with Sloan as halfback. Gamés are to be played on Lambeth Field both Friday and Saturday while the varsity is away. Tomorrow after- noon the first-year team will play the Washington and Lee freshmen and on Saturday there will be a game be- tween the scrubs and the ineligibles of Hampden-Sidney. Virginia’s first-year team has de- feated V. M. I. and tied Maryland, but Washington and Lee is reported to have a strong team of yearlings, perhaps the best in the State. The scrubs will be playing their first game while returns come back from Ten- nessee. The next game of the Daffo- dils is against the Pennsylvania scrubs. After the Tennessee game this week the Virginians have a trio of South- ern Conference contests. Washing- ton and Lee is to be met in Lexing- ton on November 15, and Maryland will be played here a week later, while the North Carolina game ends the season Thanksgiving. RENROC GRID TEAM IN ALEXANDRIA TILT Ttchy Prender will send his Renroc gridmen against Alexandria Tigers on Heyden Field, Alexandria, Sunday at 3 o'clock. Final practice is scheduled tonight at 7 o'clock on Plaza Field. Coach Prender will try some new players and wishes all to report.

WAYNESBURG ELEVEN - DRILLS HERE TODAY Waynesburg College gridironers of Pennsylvania, who arrived here late yesterday evening, were to drill this afternoon to get set for their clash with Georgetown Saturday at Clark Grifith Stadium. In meeting the Blue and Gray Waynesburg feels it is stepping con- siderably out of its class, as the team plays, as a rule, much smaller schools. With a number of star players in- | fured or sick, the visiting Yellow | Jackets will be further handicapped. Loss of George Drury will be particu- larly felt, as the Waynesburg attack had been built about the star fullback. 1“'“*‘ several ligaments torn in his leg Drury is out of it for the re- mainder of the season. Waynesburg has just come through tough battles with West Virginia Wesleyan and Geneva the last two aturdays. Yale and Dartmouth Appear On Par for Tomorrow’s Fray By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, October 28.—Yale's struggle with Dartmouth at New Haven tomorrow will have an impor- tant bearing on the mythical college foot ball championship of the East. Yale, defeated by Georgia, con- quered Brown and the Army, while undefeated Dartmouth has vanquished Harvard. A victory for Yale will pave the way for a championship affalr with Princeton next month. Experts rate Yale and Dartmouth as even. Yale has its Caldwell and Dartmouth has its Lane, and there are other sensational players for both sides. Coach Hawley has hopes of rushing over the Bulldog with a strong for- ward passing drive. Indiana lends intersectional color with an invasion against Harvard. Harvard has braced its defense in an effort to avoid repetition of the weak- ness shown against Purdue and Dart- mouth. Indiana has tied Minnesota and held Notre Dame to 19 to 6. Army regulars were in a scoring mood yesterday and made four touch- downs against the scrubs in a scrim- cage In preparation for Bucknell Bucknell had an intensive workout, atter which Head Coach Snavely an: nounced his starting line-up, which will include_a backfleld of Quinn, Hambacker, Hallcki and Diehl.

Twice in recent years Michigan has scored 3-0 victorles over Illinois, and Louis Gilbert has practiced falthfully this week to make the fleld goal at- tempt against the Illini again. So far this season no fleld goal has been registered in the Big Ten except one by Rinehart of Indiana against Ken- tucky on the opening day. A forward passing quarterback has been working with the Illinols varsity this week— Steussy, the youngster who tossed the IIlint to victory a week ago. Both Have Full Strength. Both teams, among the unbeaten four of the conference, are at full strength, with no injuries of conse- quence. In fact, Northwestern is the only squad in the Big Ten which has important casualties among its first- string men, and all but one of these are likely to see service tomorrow against Missouri. Waldo Fisher, end, has an infected arm, which likely will prevent his appearance. The thirty-eighth annual struggle between Minnesota and Wisconsin is expected to draw a record-breaking crowd to the Gopher stadium, with ap- petites whetted for another over- whelming Minnesota victory. Having the reputation of coming into top form late in the season, the Minne- sotans believe they are well on their way after last Saturday's 38-0 defeat of Towa.

He departed for Min- neapolls last night with 36 players. regular Lion varsity guard, was fll, and Hastinge took his post, and will probably start against Lafayette. Coach McCracken will be without three regulars in Pursell, Hanlon and ‘Thompson, who are still nursing in- Juries. Emphasis was placed on forward passes by Coach Dobie for his Cornell players. Hoekelman figured in most of the plays which will be used against Columbia. Columbia hopes to repeat its victory of a year ago. The game will be played in Ithaca. Expecting an aerial assault from the Navy, Pennsylvania had an inten- sive drill against Middle formations. Although still limping, Paul Scull practiced some drop kicks. The Mid- shipment resorted to Penn plays in practice, with considerable attention centered on a defensive. Former stars of Princeton worked on the scrub team and produced three touchdowns to the varsity’s one. Un- corking a spectacular forward-passing attack, Jake Slagle and Al Wittmer featured. Winn and Keck also played with the second string. The squad takes on Willlam and Mary, in what is viewed as an easy contest. _— FOOT BALL YESTERDAY.
