HICAGO, October 20.—Amos | Alonzo Stagg likes to think | of the 1922 game between Princeton and Chicago as| the greatest and most thrilling of lll.l%?t ball conflicts. Man and boy, the Maroon coach has been In foot ball for more than 42 years, and who is the youngster to argue aganist him? | A rainy day on the midway found the old man in a reminscent mood as h ‘waited the gathering of his players and ce for another game with Prince- , that will be played on Stagg Field The details of that famous 21-to-18 le are not yet forgotten by the kL jed thousands that witnessed the lay, but in the mind of Alonzo Staggz ey are ht as though they oc-| curred yesterday. Clad in a dark-blue dressing gown with “Yale” embroidered | o the pocket and a sheaf of plays in his | hand, Stagg allowed his mind to drift back to that gray November afternoon of eight years ago and gave his version the game. “How u-uuxx‘u Pflncebg;l‘ htrf,ck:d us_that day,” he began. “With John X d:n’a Willle Zorn tearing the Princeton line to shreds, we scored three touchdowns while Princeton was get- a one.

ALEXANDRIA, Va, Octeber 29.— Teddy Sutherland, shortstop of the Cardinal A. C. nine, was awarded a silver base baM by President Sylvester A. Breen last night as the team’s most valuable player during the late season. The award was made at a social held at Breen's home in celebration of the club’s twenty-fourth season on the dia- mond. Don Purvis, second baseman, was awarded a gold lapel button as the team’'s heaviest hitter while a similar presentation was made to Capt. Buddy Zimmerman, outfielder, who scored the greatest number of runs. Walter Johnson base ball games were presented to Sammy Berman, outfielder, and “Honey Boy" Peyton, catcher, while autographed photographs of President Breen were presented to Berman and Manager Samuel De Vaughan. NORTHERN ELEVEN FEARS WET FIELD Has Pinned Hope of Victory| Over Apaches Tonight on Passing Game. WET gridiron, wouldn't help the youthful and comparatively light Northern Red Birds to- night when they make their bid for the sandlot foot ball championship against the Apaches in the Griffith Stadium at 8:15 o'clock. For the last two weeks, Buck Grier and Coaches Nick Manfreda and Lou Brunelle have been trying to perfect an aerial game which was expected to give the champions no little trouble. Tonight, with prospective slippery foot- ing and a slippery oval, the Northern chances have been minimized. ‘Though his eleven is rated the under- dog, Buck Grier, Northern pilot, sees a close battle and thinks the Birds may spring a surprise. Supporters of both teams are of the opinion that neither has opened up us far this season. The Northerns have lost several per- formers from last year's team, rnlcu- larly missing Ed Dugan and Jackson, who are wearing Apache togs, and Phil Delaney, one of the best defensive pivot- men in local sandlot ranks. A practice has been carded for to- night for the G. P. O. Federals, 135- pounders. They will meet at the field at Seventeenth and B streets. A Sunday game is wanted.

Thirty thousand reservations already have been made for the Chicago-Prince- ton game Saturday and Coach Stege has his somewhat weary Chicago team all steamed up for a typical Staggian comeback. Although minus an important victory , the Maroons are expected to give Tiger a very in- teresting afternoon. With the excep- tion of his ace, Capt. Van Nice, Coach Stagg has an intact first string line-up for the first time this Fall and is out to make it three out of four in the inter- sectional series with Coach Bill Roper's men. More than 10.000 Princeton alumni plan to attend the game and the an- nual Princeton dinper Friday night, & dinner that will be a Western farewell dinner for Coach Roper, who retires at end of the season.

Bruder, out for almost three weeks with a smallpox attack, was named as a certain starter in the Minnesota game by Coach Dick Hanley of Northwestern last nignt, after he had ripped up the line, kicked and passed as deadly as ever.

The Buckeyes flashed a lot of power in a long scrimmage against the freshmen in the rain last night, and Wesley Fes- ler, alternating at end and fullback, stirred hopes for a reversal of form against the Badgers. Meanwhile, the Badgers concentrated on a passing attack. All the regulars will be available for the game, and the Badgers, believing they have a chance to win or tie in the champlonship race, planned to shoot the works against the | Buckeyes. All was sad and dreary at Indiana, where Pat Page's Hoosiers were trying to get warmed up for the Notre Dame game. Coach Page revised his line-up here and there, but it will be about the same one that faced the Southern Methodists & week ago.
