N W BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 16, 192 CHAMP SCHAEFER DISPLAYS RARE FORM IN DEFEATING CONTI IN. INTERNATIONAL BILLARD TOURNEY — COL. HUSTON "SAYS CARL MAYS WILL BE WITH YANKEES NEXT SEASON — WILLARD FAILS TO IMPRESS SPORT WRITERS IN BOUT AT LOS ANGELES—CARP WANTS TO MEET SIKI VALEIS FAVORED TOBEAT PRINCETON Blue Looks the Best to Those Who Follow the Game New Haven, Nov. 16,—Yale will nd a fghting, confident eleven against the snapping frisky Tiger in the Palmer Stadium at Princeton Sat- urday afternoon. The Ells, players and coaches alike, belleve that the 1921 Blue vietory will be repeated and have already admitted to them- selves that they have the cdge on Roper's eleven in every department of the game. Critics Think So Too It is not the Yale players coaches alone who think that Blue will win. Feotball men and the who Orange and Black in the Cambridge Btadlum carried away the idea that Yale, playing with the spirit and form displayed against Brown, wil} defeat both Princeton and Harvard in the next two weeks. ‘The Ells have wonderful football ! material. On every side, except in the New Haven Bowl, it is admitted that the material with which Tad Jonep {8 working is better than that with which Reper and Bob Fisher have struggled. This material, in the early games of the season, did not get the results the undergrads and the alumni ex- pected. At once the ery of “obsolete methods” was raised and Tad Jones beeame a target for hostile criticism. Whether or not this criticism chang- ed Jones’ plans the fact remains that ‘Yale showed a marked improvement in its West Point game over what was revealed in the Towa struggle. And then agalnst the Brown warriors, thought to be one of the best minor college téams in the east, Yale ex- pleded a running attack which sur- prised the football world. The old style football was dis- carded. The Ells showed an over- head game fully as advanced as that of any of the other big college elevens, Close formations were dis- catded and the Elis, with their team showing it can and will play ad- wvanced foetball, won in decisive style. Feollowing this rev:alation of its ability the Yale squad, with prac- tieally all second and third string men, throwing forward passes from many formations and running open plays, slaughtered Maryland 45-3. This team held Penn to 12 points and Penn trimmed the great Navy eleven of future a:lmirals at Annapolis and is regarded as one of the strong eastern elevens. ! Has Good Defensc, What Yale has got is a tight de- fense. Jowa broke through for a gingle touchdown and so did West Foint. Maryland scored on a goal from the field. In all 16 points have been scored on the Elis in eight games. Only ithe Big Red team ‘of Cornell and the bustling elev- en of future generals at West Point Compare this record with that ot Princeton and also with that of Har- vard. Centre and Princeton have each crashed thro the Crimson for 10 points and rtmouth nicked the Harvard record for a frjo of points with a placement kick, totaling ,23. Princeton has 34 points on the wrong slde of its record. Harvard got three, Bwarthmore 13 and Chicago 18. But records mean nothing to the fighting Tigers. The 1922 Ropermen have been able to rise to every call and meet gevery emergency. Short- enders in Poth the Harvard and Chi- cago contests the Jungle Tribe has réally risen to great footbally heights and made gridiron history by defeat- ing both these teams, thought to be its superiors. There is no question about the ef- fect of these victories. They have filled the Tigers with confidence in their abllity to meet every situation. They have made Roper's team believe it {8 the best in the Big Three. They will spur the eleven on to even great- er deeds and the Elis will be on the shert end of the psychological end of the game. Outplayed Crimson Forwards. Roper's line outplayed the Crimson. It showed a flre and a dash which swept aside the well drilled Harvard forwards! The Tigers took all that was coming their way and came back for more. They wore down the Crim- #son linemen and by their fierce charg- ing hurried the Fisher backs into fumbles, something which rarely happens to a Harvard team. Theat, Baker, Dickenson, Alford and Gray all stood out, both in offensive and defensive play and there is no reason why their abllities should suffer a slump against the Blue, But the Blue also had a rush line. It Is a strong line which can hold| eight opponents to 16 points, All through the year the Blue forwards have been drilled to stand theé gaff, and keep going. They will get their supreme test Saturday and on their ability to stand off the Tiger chargers will rest, in great measure, the out- come of the game. Yale apparently has the better of the Tigers in backfield men. Not in quality, but in quantity. The Llis have almost three scts of backs, all god®l cnough te bear the varsity stamp. The Tigers have one first class set, but the subs fall far short of the calibre of the Yale second string men. NEW STADIUM FOR NAVY, Annapolis, Nov. 16.—The contract has been awarded for erecting the #teel stadium or grandstand on the Naval Academy's new athletic field at & bid of $32,400, it was announced yesterday by Academy authorities.

This will be in time for the opening of the baseball season. WILLARD IN RING Former Heavyweéight Champion Ap- spears in Public In Los Angeles— Falls to Make Favorable Impression, Los Angeles, Nov, 16~ Jess Willard made his first public ring appearance last night, the duy three years ago when Jack Dempsey wrested his heavywelght hoxing title from Iim, Tn the opinion of sport writers, the big Kansan falled to show champlonship form, The former champion boxed two ex- hibition bouts of two rounds each with Tom Kennedy and Joe Bonds, l.os Angeles heavyweights, as the fea- ture of a boxing program given at the the assistance league for ex-service men, W. G. McAdoo, former secretary of the treasury and Mrs. MeAdoo, daugh- ter of former President Wilson, were among n large numbeér of prominent persons who They were given an ovation. Willard received a rousing recep- tion, His two opponents although large men, looked small beside Jim, Kennedy made the better showing, awinging 4 or 5 hard rights to the jaw, but Willard merely smiled and re- tallated mildly. ‘Willard was quick on his feet, and his rapid sparring, as one writer e: pressed it, “gave one the idea he was not far from being in fair fighting trim."

New York, Wov. 16.—When sYale mceets I'rinceton, on the gridiron in the Palmer statium Saturday, -the Tiger cohorts will have a speciai counter offensive in song to counter- act the dismal wail of the Blue's his- toric “undertaker song’, it wag learned in collegiate circles today. The Tigers' songtis entitled “the Blue Dog Dirge.” The El song usually started after Yale has taken the lead has grated on the nerves of Princeton in other yeais and has been met by continuous ‘‘ecan- non ball cheer” in an.effort to drown out the melaneholy chant.

Tex mckn"d Is of the Opinion That English Not tiare To Bex in Amm:u. Heavywelght Does New York, Nov, 16,--Tex Rickard, Madison Square Garden boxing pro- moter, has a scheme which he ex- pects will smoke out Joe Beckett, or at least produce a reason why the English heavyweight champlon is completely ignoring an offer of Riek- ard to match him here with Tom Gibbons, 8t. Paul light-heavyweight, Having waitod a week for a response that never came, Rickard ‘plans to cable England's boxing crities and of- ficlals in an effort to learn if Beckett intends to come here, and if not, why not, Rickard has his own Idea of the reason for Beckett's hesftancy. The promoter is convinced that Beckett, like others among Europe's foremost boxers, including Carpentier, Siki and Wilde, is afraid of American ring ri- vals and prefers small purses and lit- tle danger of defeat on the other side to la¥ge purses heré and possible or probable disasjer. Rickard sald ‘ves- terday he could give no other reason for the dearth of international matches here and the apathy of Eur- opean boxers when offered the chan® of a remunerative visit to our shores. The failure of Beckett even to reply to his cabled offer has aroused Rick- ard's ire, HUST BE NEUTRAL Governor Fdwards is Net Expected to Show Any Prefercnce While At- tcndlfig N.
