"SPORTS., THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C., THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 3, 1927. SPORT S New Rivalries Mark East’s Grid List : Central, Tech Primed for Annual Tilt PRINCETON AND HARVARD TO MEET STRANGE FOES Contests With Ohio State and Penn, However, Not Apt to Compensate for Loss of Traditional Clash Between Tiger and Crimson. BY H. C. BYRD. HIE first Saturday in November —the coming Saturday—for a zood many vears, has marked the first game between the Big Three of foot ball, Har- va 1 and Princeton, but instead of that contest this week two big con- tests new to the East are to be staged. Ohio State, one of the best teams in the Middle West, is to appear in the Princeton Stadium, while at Phila- delphia, Harvard is due to play Penn- sylvania for the first time in more than two_decades. Much of interest should be found in these contests. No doubt both will be well laved and be productive of excellent foot 1 ‘. but it is doubt- if the two together will provide as weh real fopd for foot ball gossip as the one that has formerly taken place between Princeton and Harvard. There was something about the meeting of the Tigers and the Crim- son that was above the average and there was that about the contest that Appealed to the general public as well as to the partisan supporters of both. Tradition Helps Contest. Something about a foot ball game of many vears standing places it as in- definably above the average contest, no matter how well the average one may be played, as a splendidly ethical something is above and apart from something that has a more material- istic function. Of course, in the Harvard-Prince- ton games there was plenty of ma- terialistic action, but also was to be found something about which partisan supporters of both schools could “rave” to their hearts’ content, while in neither the Ohio State-Princeton ocontest nor the one between Pennsyl- vania and Harvard is it likely that much of anything other than what might be found at the average big game will take place. Good foot ball, it is true, will be seen. Cheering sections will yell them- eelves hoarse, old graduates will get up on more or less steady legs and whoop it up for one or the other of the two teams, but few will there be in the stands with the innermost feel- ing that every movement on the grid- fron is almost as important as a matter of life and death. It is that feeling on the part of the alumnus that causes him to feel that for his team to lose is a calamity and to win & great and praiseworthy achieve- ment that distinguishes such contests &8 those between Princeton and Har- vard from those between Ohio State and Princeton and between Harvard and Pennsylvania. Old Game Missed. Just what chance there is for a resumption of reletionships between Harvard and Princeton is not known definitely and probably relationships will not be resumed for a good many years, as the feelings causing the break were rooted too deeply. But whether the game will be resumed in the near future, as far as the vast majority of alumni of the two institu. tions and the foot ball public are con- cerned it will be missed, greatly missed, from the season’s schedule. ‘The game Ohio State and Princeton are to play BSaturday undoubtedly brings together two fine teams, and in this respect Princeton is in a better position than Harvard. Neither Har- vard nor Penn is in a position to give their contest the place of importance that is held by the one in which the ‘Tiger is to take part. Ohio State lost to Michigan in a game in which it was generally as being far stronger than its comparative show- ing indicated, and last week beat Chi- cago, which previously had defeated Penn. Princeton has yet to meet de- feat and has among its victories one over Cornell. Despite the fact that the Princeton and Ohlo Btate game probably will be a better exhibition of foot ball than that at Philadelphia, it is probable that a much greater crowd will watch Penn and Harvard in their meeting. It was years ago that Penn and Har- vard broke off athletic relationships because of what is said to have been one of the roughest games in gridiron history. Many men still interested in foot ball remember that contest, and those that do not remember it have been told of it In the’ newspapers In the last few days. This combined with the fact that Philadelphia is a foot ball town. probably will fill Frank- lin Field to the overflowing. Georgetown'’s game with Lafayet! despite the losses by Lafayette last two weeks, stands among the big- gest in the East, excepting, of course, the two mentioned in the above para- graphs. The Blue and Gray is to face a team that may do almost any- thing if it gets started right. For in- stance, Lafayette had last year in Wil- mon one of the really great backs in about it ) the East, but he has not been playing well so far this season He was benched a short time ago, but got in the game last week with Penn State and showed flashes of his 1926 form. If he should round to and play one of his great games here Georgetown may have more trouble than its supporters now think it is barganing for. Lafayette and Georgetown have in teresting styles of attack. a lot of open foot ball and no doubt many long runs and good forward passing will be seen. Georgetown, it is reported, may he weaker than it expected to he, but no matter what lineup is presented Saturday the chances are good tkat the personnel of that line-up will be set to do its best and give its best tq the winning of the last big contest Georgetown is to see on a local field this season. One of the best games played in the South so far this year is pretty sure to take place at Nashville between Vanderbilt and Georgia Tech. Neither has as yet been \hipped by a South- ern Conference eleven, and the only defeats suffered by either were at the hands of Texas hy Vanderbilt and at the hands of Notre Dame by Georgia Tech. Neither nderbilt nor Georgia Tech sets much store by games out- side those played with Southern Con- ference elevens, and both bend their main energies to being at their best against each other. In fact, there is a general feeling among Southern elevens that makes them like to upset Georgia Tech at any time they'get a chance. With the exception of two or three great rivalries, such as that be- tween Virginia and North Carollna, almost any Southern eleven had rather whip Georgia Tech ~than any other school on its schedule. Out at South Bend two great foot ball teams are to clash in what may really develop into the best game of the year. Minnesota and Notre Dame are the teams, and, despite the bril- liance of the eleven ' coached by Rockne, it is not even remotely certain by any means that Minnesota will not come out on the long end of the count. ‘Two games are to be played Satur- day at Lexington, Va., Virginia Mili- tary Institute and North Carolina be- ing listed to meet at 11 o'clock in the morning and Virginia and Wash- ington and Lee at 2:30 o’clock in the afternoon. Both games originally were listed for the afternoon, but as Lexington is hardly big enough to support more than one contest, V. M. L. and North Carolina very graciously consented to bring theirs forward so that Washington and Iee and Vir- ginia would have a clear field. The Washington and Lee-Virginia game is the former’s homecoming and usually the biggest Lexington crowd of the year is present. Incidentally, Washington and Lee is not forgetting that last season, when it expected to win, the Cavaliers sprang one of the big surprises of the Southern season and romped away with the game by a decisive margin, winning by four touchdowns. Virginia's brilliant pass- ing game caused that victory and the chances are it will depend in the main on that again. Certain it is that the Charlottesville eleven is not going to get very far in attempting to crash the W. & L. line. That line is far too capable and experienced. Virginia was beaten so badly by Tennessee last week, while Washing- ton and Lee’s record has been so good, that it see: almost impossible for Virginia to win. But strange things happen in foot ball. Probably if Wash. ington and Lee wins it will win rather decisively, and if Virginia gets going with its long forward-passing attack it may accomplish what none of its supporters expect it to. COLONIALS EXPECT TO HAVE GOOD FIVE ‘With six members of last Winter's varsity squad and a group of prom- ising players from last season's Fresh- men combination at hand, prospects for a strong George Washington Uni- versity basket ball team are bright.

Several other varsity players who were unavailable during the hard mid- meason schedule are back in shape and certain to see service. i Return of Mike Wilson and Capt. Cothran to the playing form of a year ago. when both received considerable mention by those selecting all-Ameri- ca teams, has caused followers of Lafayette increased hope as to the outcome of the battle with George- town. Both Wilson and Cothran against Penn State, despite the one-sided score, seemed to have hit the playing stride they are capable of. Wilson did not even start the State game, but his temporary stay on the bench seemed to have put new fight into him, for he played a bang-up game nfller getting in during the second November 3.~ To go down to defeat Saturday would mean that thls year's Maroon eleven would experience the worst season of any Lafayette team since 1918, Jock Sutherland's 1920 team Hangs Collarettes are cut to size.

A defeat at the hands of George- town would be the third this Fall and there is also the tie score with West Virginia to mar the record. A new set of ball carriers is ex- pected to start the Georgetown fray. Shellenberger, who was at a halfback post a week ago, probably will direct the team from quarterback. Wilson and Chimenti, the early season selec- tions for the halfback berths, are ex- pected to be at their old posts, with Guest at fullback. If Hanlon, who started the firSt four games at quar- terback. is sent in it probably will be to relieve one of the halfbacks or Guest at full. No changes are ex- pected in the line that faced State.

C, 3 A Man, Here—Devitt and ENTRAL and Tech squads after careful preparation feel primed for their game tomor- row in the public high school foot ball championship series, the game long regarded as the annual c of Washington's scholastic on. The struggle will be staged son Stadium, the opening kick- oft being due to occur at 3:15 o'clock. While Central-Tech athletic meeti 1ly one on the grid- iron, attractive because of the old and strong rivalry between the schools, the impending battle has 1roused an unusual amount of inter- est, as it appears the winner will just 1bout land the series title. ech and Central have vet to lose The Manual Trainers have downed Eastern, 27 to 0, and Western, 6 to 0. Central was held to a 19-19 tie by Business, but got the game through forfeit, as Business used ineligible players. here appears to he no great dif- ference in the strength of the teams. Both have bang-up backfields and stalwart lines. If there is any ad- vantage held by either team it is pos- sessed by Tech in a more seasoned bunch of boys on the line. However, Central's line has done well, despite its greenness, Tech's backfleld strength s fur- nished by Capt. Kriemelmeyer, Flor- ence, Ritter, Bailey, Mills, Drissell. iuy and Sorrell. Just which combina- tion will be picked to start by Coach Hardell is uncertain. Tech's line i made up of players of proved including Benner, Shipman, Oyste: Winston, Oehmann, Rooney Hissey. Capt. Simmons, Stevens, Ault. Cro White and Boyd are the ball-car | upon whom Central's hopes are pin- ned. The Blue and White line will be strengthened by the return of Joe Dinkin, clever tackle, who did not get into the Business game. Rhodes and St. John, clever ends, are other boys who will be available tomorrow who were not ready for service azainst the Stenographers. ~ Other Central { men are James, Mehler, Smith. John- | son, Michelet, Hockbaum and Ross. Students and adherents of the »ols are planning to support_their favorites enthusiastically. While Tech's rooters have, so far as is known, arranged no pre-game meeting, followers of Central will gather to- night at the Racquet Club to organize, Part of the meeting of the Racquet | Club will be devoted to honoring Bill | Foley, veteran track coach of the school, who will be presented a pic- ture by the “C” Club, but the remain- der of the evening will be devoted to “pepping” for the Central-Tech game. Arrangements will be made to dis- tribute megaphones among the stu- dents of the Columbia Heights School, outfit the cadet band in snappy regalia and set the stage in every for the biggest kind of demonstration in Wilson Stadium. Headlining the prep school games tomorrow is the contest between Devitt and Emerson, set for Georgetown Uni- versity field at 3 o'clock. Both elev. ens have shown power in tests thus far, and appear to be just about the class of schoolboy teams outside of public high circles. In other games tomorrow, Gonzaga | {and Georgetown Prep will meet at Garrett Park and St. Alban's entertain St. Paul's School of Balti- more, on the former's gridiron.
