| S * BULLDORS, IGERS " TOPEASTERN LT However, Clash at Princeton Is Merely One of Many Attractive Frays. Ey the Assoclated Press. ¥ EW YORK, November 17.—The fifty-second meeting between Princeton and Yale at Prince- ton was just one feature of today's Eastern foot ball card. There were also such alluring an- nual duels as that between Oolgate and Syracuse at Syracuse; between Co- Jumbia and Pennsylvania at Philadel- hia; Cornell and Dartmouth at Ithaca, N. Y.; willlams and_Amherst; Holy Cross and Harvard; Penn State and Lafayette; West vlrgxuu and George- town, and Washington and Jefferson and Bucknell. Intersectional games Included New York University and Missouri at the Yankee Stadium, Fordham and unde- feated Detroit at the Polo Grounds, Carleton and Army at West Point. Navy, Brown and Boston College were decided favorites over Loyola of Baltimore, New Hampshire and Can- istus, respectively, as was Wesleyan over Bowdoin, Fifty-second Annual Contest. PRINCETON, N. J, November 17 (#). —Thousands of visitors were here today for the fifty-second Yale-Princeton foot ball game. A town that normally houses fewsr than 10,000 people had to handle five times that number. The town fire- men and a detail of State troopers were neded to help Princeton’s police fo:g in controlling the rush of motor tri c. Princeton, with a somewhat better record for the season, reigned favorite in the pre-game predictions by a slight margin, but no sons of Eli were ad- mitf defeat before the final whistle. ‘The memory of last year's contest when the conceded even more of an edge they are given today, lost 14 to 6. Defeat remained in the minds of the supporters of both colleges. Both teams had injuries to detract from their chances. Johnny Garvey, star Yale back, remained out of the swathed ages. Ed Decker, mainstay of Yale’s defense, also took things easy, fearful of doing further injury to two broken fingers, but the coaches said he would be able to play. Howe Decides to Play. Chuck Howe, captain and star center of the Princeton team, has been in the infirmary all week with a severe cold, but-decided to lead his team into battle. Nine members of the Princeton team took rxt in last year's losing struggle, 8ix of them are seniors this year and opes of en eir varsity career with a victory over their tradi- tional rivals.

TULSA, Okla, November 17.—His fighting career behind. him, Quintain Romero Rojas of Chile, once regarded as a contender .for the heavyweight title, was en route to New York today to accept a job as a watchman. Before leaving here last night Rojas announced he was through with the fight game and would take up less strenuous work to support his wife and three children. Rojas, who was suspended and fined $500 for failure to put up a fight against Babe Hunt, Ponca City heavy- weight who knocked him out in the second round Thursday night, was de- scribed by Roy Rhodes, promoter, as “through, broke, punch drunk and down and out.” The $500 fine represented the full amount of Rojas’ purse for the Tulsa 'appearance, and he accepted $50 from one of the fight promotery to defray his traveling expenses, " % | pionship of the Western Conference. BY WALTER TRUMBULL. RINCETON and Yale are meeting today in a game with tr tions stretching back into the dim and distant past. The Tiger and the Bulldog have fought many a thrilling and bitter battle, and rarely has previous form been any true guide to the result. On paper, Princeton looks best. Every opponent except two—Maine and Dart- mouth—has scored on the Blue. Two opponents only—Ohio State and Wash- ington and Lee—have scored on the Orange and Black. Princeton looks to have the sf er ends, the better back- lr}eld and, all in all, fully as powerful a ne.

NEW YORK, November 17.—Joe Glick, hard-punching Williamsburg lightweight, has removed another for- midable obstacle from his path toward the 135-pound championship. Glick re- ceived the official verdict over Baby Joe Gans, California negro star, after a rather lifeless 10-round battle at Madison Square Garden last night.

BY PAUL R. MICKELSON. Associated Press Sports Writer. CHICAGO, November 17 (#).—First place in the Big Ten foot ball champion- ship race and membership in the Na- tion’s select circle of undefeated teams were at stake at Iowa City today where Towa and Wisconsin match speed and brawn before 35,000 spectators. The battle, which may decide the championship scramble—barring upsets in next week's final games—was easily the outstanding attraction of the West- ern Conference’s schedule, which in- cluded games between Ohicago and Illinois and Northwestern and Indlana, Because of impressive triumphs over Minnesota and Ohlo, Coach Burt Ingwersen's ponderous Iowa machine was the experts' cholce to win. Wis- consin, however, packed a passing game with every team it has met this season and was conceded a big chance. ‘A teady drizzle yesterday made the play- g fleld soggy, and that was regarded as an advantage for Iowa, which an almost invincible line attack. Towa Line Is Heavy. The Towa line, averaging close to 10 pounds more to & man than Wisconsin's, and its two line smashers, Mayes Mc- Lain and Willis Glassgow, carried the Hawkeye hopes, while Wisconsin de- pended on its line’s aggressiveness, the throwing arms of Bill Lusby and Sam- my Behr and the uncanmy ability of X " Cuistner, its midget quarterback, to_spear passes. In vindictive mood because of its de- feat by Michigan two weeks ago, Illi- nols, 1927 champions, invaded Chicago bent on giving Coach Amos Alonzo Stagg’s men their fifth straight Con- ference licking. Chicago was in good physical shape for once, but wasn't conceded much of & chance fo turn back the Illini. At Bloomington, Northwestern and Indiana, were to do battle. Off to a Efio a powerful aggregation with vic- tories over Minnesota and Purdue and todav was poinunr to a first-division berth in the conference rating. Indiana was badly crippled. The fleld was soggy and heavy. Minnesota had the once mighty Haskell Indians for opponents in a non- Conference clash, which was regarded as merely a workout for the Gophers. Wabash Visits Purdue. An ancient enemy, Wabash, was at Purdue and this time the Boilermakers are fearing an aerial attack. Today's battle was the twenty-eighth between the two schools. Kipke, one of the best ball car- riers ever at the University of Michigan, led his Michigan State College eleven to Ann Arbor to meet the Wolverines. The Kipkemen promised trouble for the Michigan squad, which has been con- demned by Coach Tad Wieman for its listlessness in this week. Coach Jack Wilce planned to do con- siderable experimenting today when his Ohlo State eleven tackles Muskin- | by f"m at Columbus. Most of the regu- lars were expected to be saved for the important Illinois game a week hence. Field at Towa Muddy.

Defeated in four straight Big Ten games, Chicago wasn't even conceded a chance inst Coach Bob Zuppke's dashing Illini, who have had two weeks to_prepare for the game. It was the final game of Chicago's schedule, however, and Stagg was ready to use every trick in his repertoire to score an upset and answer critics, who have been lambasting the team for its “lack of fight.” Carnegie vs. Notre Dame. SOUTH BEND, Ind., November 17 (#)—Carnegie Tech's future rating as a contender for the national foot ball chmplonshlr d;{nnaed on a victory over the University of Notre Dame to- day. Undefeated in six games, they brought with them a reputation of being strong- er than Army, more powerful than the New York University eleven and just now at the peak of their game. Notre Dame, too, appeared ready to go. Two motives were added to the usual desire to win—one to protect a record of not having been defeated in 23 years on the home gridiron and the other to knock Tech out of the running for the national championship just as the Pittsburgh aggregation eliminated Notre Dame two years ago. Early season defeats eliminated Notre Dame from championship consideration. There was every indication that an- clent Carter Field would be crowded to_the limit.

The Alabama eleven has not been beaten in three has | seasons. One More Game Left. With the crucial Eastern-Tech game now history only one more title series match remains to be played, that be- tween Central and Western Tuesday in Central Stadium. It will be a battle are tled for that position with one win and two defeats each. ‘Pech outplayed Eastern yesterday and deserved to win, but the Lincoln Park- ers offered the Maroon and Gray the most_ dewperate opposition. Though Coach Hap Hardell's boys scored only one touchdown, they were the aggres- sors virtually throughout, and with the exception of one splurge, when it reach- ed Tech’s 12-yard line, £astern was un- able to gain consistently. On the other hand, the McKinley compinauon, empiuying & spectacular AsSINg game anu u Ciever aecermined rushing attack, contrived to advance the bau orien ana for substantial yard- age. ‘The forward passing combination of Homer Drissel to Bradley Edelblut accounted for Tech’s lone touchdown, and the rushes of Holmes Fountain, Howard Florence, Tech’s nifty little backs, were the brightest spots in the McKinley team’s triumph.

Eastern’s Defense Strong. From this stage until the fourth peri- od, Tech, though virtually always car- rying the fight to Eastern, was unable to plerce the Eastern defensive. How- ever, Eastern found it even harder to. gain against Tech. In desperation Eastern lashed out with its only real offensive of the game in the final period, and, with the whole backfield alternating in toting the ball, smashed through to Tech’s 12-yard line. Here the Tech defense became a damant and in a final effort to score Oxle; flung a pass toward Smith. The bail, however, was grounded and went into Tech's possession on its own 20-yard line. The McKinley boys soon the ball out of danger and thereafter East~ ern never threatened. In the late stages Tech was again menacing the Eastern goal, play ending with the Maroon and Gray in possession of the ball on Eastern’s 15-yard line. Line-Up and Summary. Position. Eastern. L E.
