Major Teams of East Enter Upon Tough Part of Their Schedules This Week HARVARD TO FACE ARMY WITH REVENGE IN VIEW California Plays Penn in First Appearance in East. Local Elevens Show Improvement. Hilltoppers Hope to Climb. BY M. C. BYRD, : B!G Eastern foot ball teams swing into the hard part of their schedules this week, thouglr Yale and Princeton seem to have hit rough spots before they were fairly started. However, the ‘coming Saturday will find every one of the big Northern schools facing a foe from which it naturally may expect approximately even, if not superior, strength. Harvard meets Army and Pennsylvania plays California in what are likely to be headline contests, while the other games are between Pittsburgh and Nebraska, Cornell and Princeton, Yale and Brown, Penn State and New York University, Columbia and Dartmouth. Harvard last season lost to Army by 15 to 0, but now thinks it has a much better chance. The Crimson has been placing high hopes in its eleven, and even before it began practice felt very optimistic. The Army should prove definite- | coached and aggressive eleven and vir- ly if such hopes have been based on solid reasonirg, as it is likely | to afford just about as much op- position as any school the Crim- son is likely to meet. Much _interest will center in the Penn-California game. It will be Cali- fornia's first appearance in the East, and it remains to be seen whether or not it can uphold the reputation of the Golden Gate State as did Stanford last Fall against Army. Penn did not have an easy time beating Virginia Polytechnic Institute last week, and it barely beat Franklin and Marshall in its opening game. Penn does not seem any too strong, and California, despite the long trip in warm weather, may take back another Eastern scalp. Last Fall at Princeton the Tigers beat Cornell by 3 to 0. Saturday the Tigers make the trip to Ithaca and it remains 1o be seen whether or not they fare as -1l Judged by scores of games so far this season, Princeton is somewhat weaker than last year and Cornell stronger. Looks Blue for Yale. ‘Brown usually does not prove such a strong opponen', for Yale, but since the latter's defeat at Georgia and Brown's victory over Princeton just about the opposite may be the case this time. In other words, if Brown continues to do as well as it did against Princeton and ‘Yale does no better than against Georgia, the Bulldog is not likely to have such a brilliant afternoon. Dartmouth goes down to Columbia for its first big game. Last year it beat Columbia by 21 to 7. Penn State plays New York University in New York, and since the whl%plnx handed N. Y. U. by Fordham probably will not have the prominence in the gridiron world dur- ing the day that it might have had if N. Y. U. were turning the same tricks it turned in 1928. One of the most interesting struggles for an Eastern eleven will be that at Lincoln, Nebr., in which University of Pittsburgh is to face Nebrask2. Pitt has been mowing down its opponents right and, left. Duke University thought it had quite an eleven, but Pitt went to Durham, and not much has been heard of Duke since. Last week it swept West Virginia off the boards and, to make the really -interesting, Nebraska obligingly whipped Syracuss. Of all the games ploged last week not one had a more fitting climax, as far as an entire section of the country was concerned, the Yale. game at Athens. Yale virtually was the guest of entire section, Saturday being the first time it had ever played below the ixon line. And the ‘whole South is pleased that it was able to give the Dark Blue such a welcome and at the same time send it back to New England on the short end of a shutout score. Georgia Deserves Plaudits. For Georgia all praise is due. Start- ing with a defeat at the hands of little Oglethorpe, it then won from an and came through in its crucial mo- ment with a triumph as real as any ever achieved on a foot ball field. Geor- gia dedicated a beautiful stadium, which was filled to overflowing, and in one short afternoon showed that it had at- tained a new standard and was able to maintain it against the strongest op- position. Navy got a touchdown in its game with Notre Dame in the first period, but could not hold the advantage. The South Bend eleven shot in its varsity backs in the second quarter and quickly evened up the score. However, the Navy put up a 'fl‘elt battle after that and not until the final quarter was Notre Dame able to get across the winning touchdown. Princeton’s defeat by Brown was un- expected. The Tigers came through their game with Amherst with a mar- gin of only one touchdown, but opin- ions were expressed that they would be stronger last week. Apparently they were, but it looks very much as if Brown were somewhat better than it was supposed to be. Either Princeton missed its calculations because Brown ‘was stronger than expected or Princeton is not as strong as its supporters might Penn had a hard time getting away with _Virginia Polytechnic Institute. The Blacksburg eleven wound up the first half with the count standing 7 to 3 against them, but scored early in the third period to lead by 8 to 7. Penn was baffied until late in the final quar- ter, when it finally put across the score and won. However, V. P. I. made good its desire to show well on its first trip to Pranklin Field, and has little to re- gret as a result of its efforts. Fordham certainly put New York University on the back seat. It blanked Chick Meehan'’s eleven and scored far r‘xkerle points than anybody thought ely. tually no reserve strength, rose to its greatest foot ball heights in winning from George Washington. And the vic- tory was not in any sense a fluke, as the Methodists were the better eleven from start to finish. They outgained and generally outplayed the Buff and Blue in every department. Gallaudet “deserves a good deal of credit for what it accomplished against St. John's College. To hold the An- napolis eleven to a 2-t0-0 score indi- cates that the Kendall Greeners have another of the fighting aggressive clevens that some years ago earned them a high place in the gridiron world. Catholic University scored three touch- downs to win from Baltimore Universlti without difficulty, while Maryland tool another defeat, South Carolina getting the long end of the ‘score. Maryland, however, showed some improvement over its previous week's performance and probably will gradually develop into a fairly good team, provided it can whip into shape ct least one fair back- MCHGAN SHOULD HAVE PLAVED SIFE Punt Was Proper Play When Wolverines Led, Says lllinois Coach. BY ROBERT C. ZUPPKE, University of Illinols Foot Ball Coach.

Don't| risk forward passes which may be in- :,ertupted‘ One bobble and you may be lost. ‘This is hackneyed wisdom, of course. but it is often forgotten by the best of quarterbacks. If Michigan's field gen- eral had remembered what Coach Harry Kipke undoubtedly had cautioned him to keep in mind at such a juncture, Michigan might perhaps have been de- feated anyway, but I refus> to admit that Purdue would have scoicd four touchdowns in the final period. Michigan, leading 16—8, at the close of the third period, threw a pass, which was intercepted and this started the fireworks. 1 rcmember an Ilinois- ‘Wisconsin game in which our downfall came the same way. Gembis of Mich- igan, a good punter, should have punted the minute the Wolverines had exhausted their three downs on con- ventional yhyl.

You don’t get the habit of runnin, wild through Michigan teams. ¥ MARSTERS FAR AHEAD SCORING GRID POINTS By the Associated Press. The 78 points Al Marsters of Dart- | mouth has rolled up in his first three games have given him a wide lead over the field in the Nation-wide race for individual foot ball scoring honors. Figures compiled by the Associated Press from the major conferences or districts show Marsters leading his nearest rival, McElreath of the Baylor Bears, by 22 points. The Baylor half- back has scored 7 touchdowns and 7 points after touchdown for 56 points. Marsters’ 78 points are the result of 11 touchdowns and 12 extra points. DIXIE GRID STANDING.

COACHES JARDOWN ON BIG TEN LOSERS Michigan, Wisconsin, Indiana and lowa Seek Causes of Unexpected Beatings. * BY WILLIAM WEEKES, Associated Press Sports Writer. practice in at least four big ten camps will be no picnic this week, as Michigan, Wis- consin, Towa and Indiana, all parties of the second part in Satur- day’s upsets, seek to learn what caused them to lose to supposedly inferior lr;;rc:s and to try to eradicate the trou- es. Michigan, victim in the biggest up- set of the day, learned from Purdue that its line lacks much of being the kind of a forward wall a title contender must have. The Purdue backs, Alex ‘Yunevich, “Pest” Welch and Glen Har- meson, tore through the Michigan wall almost at will, in the final period par- ticularly, with plenty or help from their own forwards. . Michigan will tackle Ohio State at Ann_Arbor Saturday, while Purdue will get a “breather” when De Pauw goes to Lafayette. Ohlo snaked out a 7-to-6 decision over Iowa for another un- looked-for win. The Hawkeyes were more powerful than Ohio State, out- gaining the Buckeyes by a good margin, but lacked a scoring punch. They will seek vindication for the lapse next Sat- urday, when Illinois goes to Jowa City to start its campaign for its third straight pennant. Easy for Illinois. The Tllini easily defeated Bradley Tech by 45 to 0 in theTr final warm-up contest Saturday. Northwestern’s Wildcats, perpetrator of another jolt to the dope which left Wisconsin on the short end of a 7-to-0 score, will take on Minnesota’s powerful team Saturday. Ndrthwestern will meet the Gophers without the aid of Hank Bruder, its great halfback. Bruder’s leg was broken in helping the Wld- cats to win, and Coach Dick Handley faces a big job in trying to develop a replacement for his star. The Badgers, ranked as one of the most dangerous contenders for the big ten title before they met Northwestern, will meet Notre Dame in Chicago at Sold'er Field Saturday. The Ramblers conguered the Navy Saturday and fig- ure to be too strong for Wisconsin, but will be battling a team thirsting for vindication. Gophers Show Power. The big ten's intersectional offerin for Saturday will b presented at Bloomington, where Indiana will enter- tain Colgate. The Hooslers will be hunt- ing trouble following their surprise d¢- feat by Chicago Saturday, and the team from the East will be after the b'g ten scalp they failed to lift at Wisconsin two_weeks ago. Chicago, owner of its first conference victory since 1927, will engage in an- other ‘double-header Saturday, with In- diang Normal and R:pon furnishing the opposition on Stagg got away to a good start with a 15-to-6 displayed the' same powerful running attack that has characterized their play snce Dr. Spears took charge, and tough afternoon. i HICAGO, Octdber 14.—Foot ball | Field.

They are the champion Mo- hawks and Apaches. The former drub- bed Catonsville in Clark Griffith Sta- dium, 18 to 0, and the latter was a 6-0 winner over the Fort Meade Tanks team. It was the opening home game for the Hawks and the first contest on the Apache card. In drubbing Catonsville for the sec- ond win in as many starts the Indians were superior all the way. They scored one touchdown each in the first and second periods and a third in th> final session. Though fraquent substitutions | were made by Coach Craig Wilton in an | effort to gst a lin: on his material under fire, some of the players used gave outstanding exhibitions despite they were in action only a brief time. | Knocky _Thomas, Johnny Howard, Burke, Birthright end Abbey were among those who were leaders on_al tack for the winners. Thomas’ long runs and Howard's line smashes were particularly noteworthy. Apaches were ext:nded to take the Fort Meade Soldiers to camp, but the latter appear stronger than usual.” The Little Indians scored their lone touch- down in the second period when Joe Sweeney broke off tackle, following a drive from mdfield featured by a 30- vard end sweep by Huck Hilleary. Apaches again threatensd in the fourth period when Hilleary stag:d another end run and brought the ball to the enemy 10-yard line. However, they lost the ball when a pass was grounded over the goal line. In the third period the Tanks eleven made its most serious scoring bid, but was stopped on the Hawks’ 20-yard line. Jerry Carroll, 1928 Georgetown Uni- versity captain, making his sandlot de- but here, played a stalwart game for Apaches at right guard. Petworth-Pennants won their gaid game of the season when they routed Pierce A. C. of Hyattsville, 31 to 0. Stea and Ward each scored two touch- downs for the winners, with Rock counting the other. So far the Pen- nants have not been scored upon. Northern ‘A. C. eleven, which was |beaten in a 7-6 battle by St. Mary's Coltics yesterday at Alexandria, will practice tomorrow night at 7:30 o'clock on the Silver Spring field. Next Sunday the Red Birds will visit Baltimore to engage Irvington A. C. STANDING IN BIG TEN.

Easy to Fit In, How easily the competent individual fits into the system is shown in two incidents in my own coaching work. When I came o Michigan in 1901, the entire system of attack of the Michi- gan team was changed, the new plays being based fundamentally on tackle back formations. In the preceding Zuppke’s Pupils Adopt His Plays BY SOL METZGER. When any pupll of Bob Zuppke's coaches foot ball you can expect his teams to feature end runs and wide off-tackle plays. Thus Iowa’s rivals will have the task of stopping Capt. Glasgow, cne of the great backs of the year. Both guards come out.on this play, and but one back, No. 5, takes the opposing end. That's a ‘big job nor- mally. But Towa gets away with it because Glasg'w fejmts to circle the end.

The year before coming to Michigan while at Stanford a team made up of thoroughly trained individual ‘“parts defeated California 5 to 0. The yea preceding California won 30 to 0. Cali- fornia_had retained the same system throughout the year, being coached by Ad Kelly, Princeton, while the Stanford squad had changed system of plays, but had been drilled in the fundamentals and actions of foot ball so thoroughly it was a winning combination even when working with newly acquired systems and “strange” plays. Task of Coaches. The coaching task is rather the de- velopment of individuals to the limit of | their physical, mental and moral ca- pacities and the fitting of these indi- | viduals together. It is not a largely different task from the building up of & successful sales organization or the con- struction of a staff to head and direct a manufacturing enterprise. Foot ball has | & different outlet than sales or factory, but the elemental planning and devel- opment of men is similar. Today in foot ball the defensive and offensive formations are almost as standardized as those of base ball. The best and most successful plays are used | in every section of the country. Inter- | sectional games and Summer schools for coaches has brought to ail this common knowledge of the easily observed ele- ments of foot ball. The coach’s success, therefore, de- pends almost entirely on his own abil- ity to develop individual personnel and upon his leadership—that element in mankind which creates the elusive something called spirit or morale. In other words, today's successful coach is the one who develops to the fullest individual rsonal _abilities; f i who succeeds in finding and developing men who will give their best in the short 60 minutes of a foot ball struggle.

Be e Penn, perhaps, has adopted the tactics of Connie Mack and keep- ing its strategy a sacret, to be sprung upom the unsuspecting CaH- fornia charges of Clarence M. (Nibs) Price. Otherwise the difficulty which the Quakers have had in overcoming Franklin & Marshali, Swarthmore and Virginia Poly in successive Saturdays has not been calculated to toss any fear into the Far Westerners. California has had some troubles of its own, being held to a scoreless tie by St. Mary’s a week ago, but St. Mary’s in the West compares with the Fordham | ervers some quick-acting method array in the East that has just mopped up New York University. The Far West closed last season with just about a perfect score, as Stanford, Oregon State and Southern California took the| scalps of Army, New York Univer- sity and Notre Dame, respective- ly. California will be favored tc add to the score, unless Penn dis- to bolster its line. Meanwhile one of the East's fore- most contenders for national champion- ship honors this year, the University of Pittsburgh, steps out to tackle the Ne- braska Cornhuskers at Lincoln. This figures to be the severest test so far for the Panthers, who added West Vir- ginia to their list of victims Saturday, | while Nebraska was beating Syracuse. | Nevertheless the dope favors Pitt to win. | Colgate Meets Indiana.

Ohio State, after nosing out Iowa by a single point, will be favored to down its old rival, Michigan, which saw pro- spective victory snatched away by Purdue with a 24-point last-period scoring bee Saturday. Notre Dame, after successive victories over Indiana and Navy in hard-fought battles, runs into Wisconsin at Chicago, while the champion Illinois eleven tackles Iowa in other outstanding Widwestern games, The Eastern slate features three games involving a half-dozen unde- feated and ambitious teams—Harvard- Army at Cambridge, Holy Cross-Ford- ham and Dartmouth-Columbia at New York. It will mark the first major test for Red Cagle and his West Point | mates, when they run into the strong Crimson tide.

Several of this week’s most thrilling prospects are centered in the South, where Tennessee's young juggernaut meets Alabama in a game that may go far toward determining championship prospects. Tennessee will be the fa- vorite. The Hackmen and McEver backfield combination of the Volunteers first came into prominence last year in beating Alabama, 15 to 13, and they are even better this season.
