ARMY-NAVY GAME IN WASHINGTON THIS YEAR New York to Alternate With Capitol for Ten Years in Staging the Game Availing fitself of Tis rights of choosing the location of the mnext Army and Navy football game, the Naval Academy athletic muthorities have decided upon Washington, and are now regotiating with the cwners of the American League Park there for the use of those grounds. The MZ! he will be played on Saturday, Nov. th. The representatives of the Navy Athletic Assocfation are now awalting blue-prints of the proposed seating arrangements, and If these are satis- factory the contract will be closed. The game has been generally played on Franklin Field, Philadelphia, but was played on the Polo Grounds, New York, last year after that location had been strongly urged by the Army. An agreement has been reached be- tween the athletic bodies of the two academies by which the game will be played for the next ten seasons, the Naval Academy choosin~ the location this year and choosing alternately thereafter with the Military Academy. It has been announced that the fixed choice of the Army contingent is New York, so that it is probable that the games will alternate between the Polo Grounds and the American League Park. Washington, for the mext tem years. The difference of opinion over the location of the game was so great that for a time the playing of the game | was doubtful. The agreement was made to cover a long period so as to ty of the game not agreement neither institution can choose a place gorth of New York of south of Washington. Dartmouth Athletes Injured. Coach Harry Hiliman of the big Green team that is slated as the win- ner of the New England Intercolle- glates at the Harvard Stadium, is not in spirits quite ag cheerful as he has been in the hablt’bf assuming the past few days. The cause of his dejection is the injuries that two of his charges have sustained that will effectually put them out of the running for the places that the paper phophesies had given them. Virgil Rector, the pole vaulter, broad and high jump star, sustained a puiled tendoin Wednesday afternoon just atter clearing 12 feet at the vault. Chick Pudrith who has been nurs- ing_a sore knee for the past month had to submit to an operation on the | same day and will not be in the game | unul the fall.
