Gallaudet’s game with Shepherd College should be well worth watching. Last year the Shepherd team surprised Gallaudet and ame near upsetting the apple cart, the score at the end of the first alf being 20 to 20. Gallaudet. One of the best games ever glayed at Gallaudet is looked for y Roy J. Stewart, former Gal- laudet athlete and for years one of the closest followers and strongest supporters of Gallaudet athletics. His opinion is expressed thus: “Last year we beat Shepherd College in the second haif, but only after the hardest kind of a game. This year both elevens are stronger, if comparative scores count for anything. it geems that Shepherd College is trying to make us somewhat overconfident. Little Word from Shepherd. “Our manager wrote to that school #nd asked for the line-up and also for the record of the team, so that we could furnish it to the newspapers, He did not get the line-up, and all the Shep- {herd manager said about his team’s irecord was that it had had a fair sea- son and had beaten Bridgewater by & couple of touchdowns. As a matter of fact they beat Bridgewater by 33 to 0, and beat Shenandoah by about 40 to 0. “With the exception of Hokanson, who twisted his ankle a little against Susquehanna last week, the Gallaudet boys are in better condition than when they beat Susquehanna.

By the Associated Press. EW YORK, November 21.—Mar- vin A. Stevens, head coach of Yale, has announced that Albie Booth, backfield star, who has had a charleyhorse, will start against Harvard tomorrow. Booth never yet has figured in a starting line-up, al- ways being & reservist ready for quick action in a crisis. Every one of the Harvard 34 varsity players has been pronounced physically fit by Dr. Tommy Richards, team phy- siclan. The team had to practice in- doors yesterday because of snow. The game in the Harvard Stadium tomorrow is of major interest in the East, but there are other ancient rival- ries. Bucknell comes to New York to play Fordham at the Polo Grounds. New York University intends to give some of its second string a chance in its game against Rutgers at the Yankee Stadium. Lehigh awaits invasion by Lafayette, which is favored to win its eleventh straight in this series dating back to the early 80s. | The games of Brown, the Army and | the Navy against New Hampshire, Ohio Wesleyan and West Virginia Wesleyan, respectively, are expected merely to fur- nish the larger trio with sharp practice for bigger engagements next week. ‘More important action awaits Phila- delphia’s two newcomers to the foot. ball elect—Villanova and Temple. Villa- nova is confident of a victory over North Carolina_State. Temple must down Drake, champion of the Missouri Val- ley Conference.

Eastern High and Gonzaga elevens were getting in last licks today in preparation for their annual foot ball game tomorow afternoon in the Easf 2:30 Both teams are in shape physically and a real contest is expected. Eastern’s record for the season is not 30 impressive as Gonzaga's, but the Lincoln Parkers have a sturdy eleven, one capable of giving the best scholastic combinations hereabout the stoutest battling. Against Central Coach Mike Kelley's proteges put up a stern fight before succumbing, 6 to 13, and any team that can furnish the Blue and White a battle like that is assuredly formidable. As a whole, though, Eastern’s show- ing for the season has been disappoint- ing, for starting with an abundance of seasoned material the Light Blue and White gridders were generally favored to win the public high school title. After trimming Calvert Hall of Balti- more, 19 to 0, and Loyola High of Baltimore, 6 to 0, in their first two games of the season the Lincoln Parkers bowed to Devitt, 0 to 19, and then in their first title series game fell before Tech, 2 to 14. Eastern’s defeats at the hands of Tech and Devitt, both elevens containing several players who were unseasoned, came as upsets. Eastern then went on to absorb a 21-0 drubbing at the hands of the husky Emerson eleven. In their next game, however, against Western, the Kelley-coached eleven got back on a winning stride and drubbed the Red and White, 38 to 6., After the Eastern I;s!rvr! walloped Woodward School’s am, , drubbed the weak Business team, 46 to proximately 32 games is planned | day.

Coach Mitchell has been rather well satisfled with the attack shown by his team in recent games, but has not been leased with its work on defense and e has this week given much attention to improve the team in this - Jimmy Hayden, clever fullback, may not be abie to start for Eastern because of an injury and if he is kept out of action his place probably will be taken by Ralph Shackleford, who has dem- onstrated backfleld ability. Charlie Millar, who has been handicapped by injuries for some time, may start at his old position at quarterback. If Mil- lar starts, Oxley, who has been at the signal-calling post, probably will be shifted to halfback, replacing Burns. In other respects it is probable that the starting Eastern line-up will be the same as the Lincoln Parkers have started in recent games and will include Smith, left end; Tom Nally, left tackle; Montague, left guard; Chester Miles, center; Hogge, right guard; Moffett, right tackle; Jenkins, right end, and McCullough, halfback.

ATLANTA, Ga. November 22.-—Ai new athletic conference may spring into being in the South before the start | of another foot ball season. Furman and Oglethorpe universities have decided to withdraw from the Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Asso- ciation and there is much talk that sev- "Ttl other schools will shortly follow suit. It is believed that these withdrawals are the first move in a plan to form a smaller and more compact conference of Ge North and South Carolina and Vi schools. As now consti- tuted, the 8. I. A. A. is a large, un- wieldy mur of more than thirty small colleges scattered over the South. J. D. Poteat, faculty director of athletics, speaking for Furman, and Dr. Thornwell Jacobs, Oglethorpe presi- dent, say they ultimately hope to be- come members of a more centrally lo- cated conference. Georgia is now represented in the S. I A. A. by Merver and Oglethorpe, Erskine, Citadel and Presbyterian. North Carolina has both Davidson and Wake Forest, now unattached, and a half dozen Virginia schools would be available for a new conference, includ- ing the University of Richmond, Lynch- burg College, Roanoke College and Wil- liam and Mary.

YATTSVILLE, Md., November 22.—For the first time in the annals of the institution Hy- attsville High School is to place a foot ball team on the field. Believing that there is sufficient interest in the gridiron game smong the students and followers of e school, Prof. K. J. Morris, principal, has given his consent to the organiza- tion of an eleven to engage in two or three games after Thanksgiving. If the venture proves successful, it is prob- able that the school hereafter will be regularly represented on the gridiron. Heretofore, soccer has been the only Fall sport . for boys fostered at the school.. It is not intended to discon- tinue soccer, the belief being expressed that the school can support both sports. Paul Smith, former University of Maryland athlete, will coach the grid- ders, who today were to be given a blackboard drill, and tomorrow will take t’he gridiron for practice for the first time. Efforts are being made to arrange games with some light high or prep school elevens in the Washington area or with reserve combinations of the big scholastic teams. It 1s with the intention chiefly of get- ting a line on the material available for foot ball next year at the school that the team has been' assembled so late in the season. Hyattsville High is the first high school in Prince Georges County ever to form a foot ball team. Though most of the candidates for the eleven are rather inexperienced, there are some who have some season- ing and others who have shown an aptitute for the sport. Frank Hawkins, who is a halfback as- pirant, is acting manager of the Hyatts- ville eleven, and John Haney, fullback candidate, is serving as “m‘i captain. A notable candidate is Curley Byrd, jr., son of the assistant to the president and director of athletics and head foot ball coach of the University of Mary- | land, Who is out fér quarterback. Young Byrd, weighing 125 pounds, is described as unusually fast and a deadly tackler. Other aspirants include George Down- ing, guard; Warren Evans, center; Fred Watson, back, and Doug McChesney, end. Commenting on h's decision to per- mit the organization of the eleven to play a few games, Prof. Morris ex- pressed the opinion that foot ball as played in schoolboy circles nowadays is much less rigorous than was the case several years ago. Dor-A foot ball team, which last Sunday triumphed over the Arlington, Va., Preps, 7 to 0, have booked a game for Sunday afternoon at 3 o'clock at Riverdale with the Kennedy A. C. eleven of Washington, Dor-A’s will drill tomorrow afternoon at 4 c'clock and Sunday morning at 10 o'clock on the Riverdale fleld. Brentwood Hawks, runners-up in the | Basket Ball Prince Georges County League last Winter, conquered the Dixie Pig A.
