New York, Nov. 2 UP—Football teams Saturday, November 3, follow the trail of the geese made famous in nursery rhymes. Some fly east, some fly west, and while no game is scheduled in the cuckoo's nest, many things are happening in fgot- ball this year. Leading the invasion of East against West, Princeton moves on Columbus primed for a terrific tus- sle with the Buckeyes of Ohio State. The Nassau Tigers turned back Ohio at Princeton last year by a score of 20 to 0, but advance calculations gave the Easterners no such margin this year.

As this I8 the only gridiron con- test in the works for this city Sun- day, the mttendance at the park !should be large.

The Stanford University Cardinals left Palo Alto last night for Los An- geles, where they will play the Uni- versity of Southern California im one | of the annual football classics of the west, X The University of Oregon's eleven ‘was on its way to Berkeley to tackle the University of California’s Golden Bears in an equally important game.

There are | four possibilities contingent on the results of these games. They are: 1—In case U. 8. C. and Oregon win, Southern California will vir- tually clinch the pennant with only Washington 8tate and Idaho re- malning on its schedule before the intersectional game with Notre Dame. 2—8hould California and Stanford win, the result of the contest to be played between the two schools probably will decide the title. 8—Victories for Oregon and Stan- ford and a win for California over Stanford would likely bring a tie for | first place betWeen Stanford, South- ern California, Oregon and Califor- nia. . 4—1¢ California and U. 8. C. are the victors there will be a possibil- ity of a tie for the championship be- tween the Big Three of this state. Stanford and California were the favorites today but the four teams were considered so evenly matched upsets. LOOKING FOR GAMES {team of Meriden is looking games for the coming season. Last season the tean. captured the state amateur basketball title by defeat- ing the best amateur teams in he state. The Meriden quintet won 33 out of 38 games played. Teams in this city wishing to arrange games are requested to get in touch with Manager John Shulza, 72 Prospect street, Meriden.

I, the Nutmeg_A. C. team of this city is brimtull of confidence that it will be returned the victor in the epic struggle whick is expedted to take place. Stapleton has one of the strongest orofessional teams in the country this year, even stronger than last season, but this report does not daunt the New Britain team in the least, Manager Henry Zehrer announc. ed today that here would be no railroad excursion to New York Sunday so the local team will make the trip by regular train service. A squad of at least 16 players will go along giving the locals plenty of re- segve for the tussle. Every man on the team reports himself to be in excellent shape for the fray. All the bruises received in last Sunday's game with the Hartford Glants have passed away and there remains nothing now but game time to start the big red eleven into action. With Wyckoft and other college stars dotting the Stapleton back- fleld, the New Britain line will be compelled to be on its toes every minute. Averaging 217 pounds, the local defense should be able .o take care of anything that comes its way. Rogers and O'Neil wil) alternate at center. Humphrey and Gnasdow will be in at guard. Conk- lin and Werwaiss will be stationed at tackle with Conley and Burns at the wings. Radzewich will be in the quar- terback berth and will direct the team. Belonki and Buckley will pay the halfbacks and Davis und McLean will do the duties in full- back. Griswold, “Pigeon” Conley, Nanfeldt, Brink and others will form the reserve strength. Arrangements for the trip are be. ing completed today. The team will getoan early start from the Berlin station and the other players will join the crew at the various stations along the line.
