INTO THIRD PLACE fale Will Not Start However Until October 4. Among the unquestioned bles resulting from the cl of the war is the return of college rorts. At this time of the yvear the chief interest in the collegiate athletics naturally turns toward the gridiron. It been years, or so it seems, since we have had any real old-time, peppery college football games. So when September 27 is chalked off on the calendar and We know the old pigskin is due to be booted about various stadiums for some weeks it will bring joy to the heart of the followers of this great college sport. The cheers of the ha ball fans will be ringing in the air, we know, when the opening battles take place on the various football fields but With the passing of October 4 every college in the country, indulging in foothall, will be in full cry and base- ! hall will ba.on the wane. away from the stadium—that will be the Princeton affair. To tackle the| Tigers in their lair will be game enough, we tigure, for the Cambridge men, for one season. Yale, likewise, plays but one game away and that will be the bi-annual trip to the stad- ium where the Crimson fighters lurk. The Tigers will gather all their trap- pings together and journey to New Haven an November 15 # try the feel | of the ground in the bowl—but that will be the only joy excursion that will take the striped warriors away from | Princeton. > Trinity, our own local eleven, will valiantly do battle with Princeton at Princeton on October 4 in the opening | game of the year for the New Jersey | university. Harvard plays Brown rather early, October 18, at the stad- ium and later at Providence. but with | home run. the exception of these two games and the clashes with Princeton, Tufts and Yale, the Crimson schedule does not look formidable. Yale, likewise, has but a few hard games. Dartmouth will open the season at | Hanover with Springfield Y. M. C. A. and with Penn State and Colgate due to play later at Hanover it would seem as if the Springfield business men would endeavor to have the two big games played at Springfield. Dar mouth is a prime favorite up the river and would draw heavy with two such formidable opponents. Herewith we present the schedule of a few of the colleges popular in the east: Harvard Sept. 27, Bates, at Cambridge; Oct. 4, Boston, at Cambridge; Oct. 11, Colby, at Cambridge; Oct. 18, Brown, at Cambridge; Oct. 15, Virginia at Cambridge; Nov. 1, Springfield Y.
