FOOTBALL SEASON OPENS Big Colleges and Universities Play Initiall Games Today— in Eastérn Connecticut Soccer League—Bulkeley Plays First Home Game. of the teams. The game scheduled at Taftville is one that fans who have never seen this sort+of football should not let slip by as these two teams are sure to give a great exhibition of Johnny Bull's favorite pastime. Just as much interest prevailc ‘= the o~ between the other two teams as they are practically evenly matched. Cornell vs, Pittsburgh. At Ithaca, the powerful University of Pittsburgh team will attempt to repeat the victory which marked the 1913 season, when Cornell was de- feated 20 to 7. Many of last year's veterans are still available and the visitors expect to test the Red and ‘White defense in every department of play. Cornell, however, is not in the same weak condition that prevail- ed early last season. Coach Sharpe’s system developed the Ithaca squad rapidly -in the closing weeks of the 1913 campaign and the lessons which preceded the overthrow of Pennsyl- vania were were well Jearned. As a result Cornell faces Pittsburgh with both an established system of “of- fense and defense and players who -have passed beyond the rudimentary stages of the game. Thus prepared for the charge of their conquerors of a year ago, the result may be reversed at Percy field tomorrow. | Rutgers After Princeton, Princeton is expected to_try out her new open play attack on Rutgers and unless it works smoothly there is like- ly to be an upset, for the New Bruns- wick college sends a strong, well- coached squad to Tigertown. Foster Sanford and his co-workers have spent many days preparing Rutgers for this game and Princeton, after the experience of last season, is not inclined to under-estimate her oppo- nent.: Whether the former Yale star kas succeeded in teaching his foot- ball pupils a method of breaking up “ovmot’on forward passing attack will be demonstrated. Rutgers’ C.ouse i8S S8.u w0 .be stronger than a year ago and if the defense is of equal calibre, Princeton will find the invaders. worthy rivals, Yale’s First Test, A new coaching system will also get its first test at Yale, where Frank Hinkey’s charges will line up against the University of Maine eleven which last season held the Elis to a no score game. The New England clan has | »een nreraring quietly tor tnis con- test and hope to make an impressive suuwing asgainst the Blue. Reports If. the weather permits, the 1914 football season - will be inaugurated today, when.all the important eastern colleges and universities wiil. be rep- resented on the gridiron, which should develop excellent play in the initial games of a majority of the teams en- gaged. While many of the big varsity elevens will face comparatively weak opponents, they are the ones who last year forced them to play the hardest kind- of football in order to make a satisfactory showing. N. F, A Opens Season. The N. F, A. team will open up to- day. with'a ney organized team called the Independents, which from all in- dicationk is sure to.be an interesting contest. The team .has been drilled during the -past week through much hard practice in:spite of the summer weather. Coach Overbagh has train- ed his pigskin chasers to the minute and is confident that the boys will have a most successful season. Thurs- day was the last day of scrimmage ua.nd Friday was spent in signal prac- ice. The team, although lighter than us- ual, appears to have the snap and pep that is characteristic of the players Ip to date. The Independents are a team made of local gridiron war- riors who have participated in many @ hard struggle and will dine up as follows: Center, Gates; R. Magner, Bendett; tackles, Donahue, Smullens; ends, Coyle, Gregson quar- terback, Popham backs, Magner, Ran- dall and McCormick. i % 11‘ to be secure na-lm& FIRE take out a LICY OF INSURANCE.

Bulkeley’s Firse Home Game. The Bulkeley football team will play its first home game of the season against the Bulkeley Alumni today. It is expected that many of the stars of Bulkeléy’s fast teams of the past few geus will battle against ‘the. school- 0ys. The game today will allow Coach McCoy to give all the candidates a chance to show their worth in a real football fray. It was quite impos- sible to take all'of the squad to Hart- ford last week, so the regular team will not be picked until after the Alumni game. Soccer Football.
