New Haven, Conn, Nov, 20.—All signs point to perfect weather condi- tions overhead and a siow fleld under foot for the Harvard-¥ale -football game here tomorrow afternoon. The forecast is for-an old fashioned foot- ball day, with a clear sky and cold, snappy atmosphere. The coaches fear, however, that the o has.come too late to benefit the n, which to- ‘night was soft and slippery, as a re- sult of the heavy rain of Thursday, The slowing . up .of the turf: in the new Yale bowl, it is thought, will have a tendency to check the open play which has been the feature of the local university eleven ali scason, and as a result the Blues have receded 2 point or two in the wagering odds. - Early in the week the Elis were backing their team at almost even figures, Har- vard's best offer was 10 to 9 on the Cambridge combination. Tonight the quotations wagered from § to 4 to 10 to 7, and Yale money was not over- abundant, 2 There was 1o drop in the enthusi- asm of the prospective spectators, however, thousands of whom were ar- riving by railroad and motor car every { R, hour.” It wae the largest night-before crowd that New Haven has seen in many years, and the task of accom- modating the late arrivals assumed puzzling_proportions long befare mid- night. The hotel registers contained the names of persons from every state in the union, Canada, Mexico, Hawaii- an Istands and even Europe. Tickets for the game were just as scarce as though the game was to be played on the old ‘gridiron ‘instead of in.the new bowl with its seating ca- pacity for 7,055 spectators. There was a constant demand for coupons all afternoon and.evening which ,could not be supplied. Even offers of large premiums over the face value of the tickets failed to bring forth, the paste- boards, since the speculators appeared o have failed entirely in their efforts to secure tickets as in past years. From a football standpoint’the day was a quiet one for the rival squads. The Yale players had an hour's signal drill on Yale fleld, followed by a short punting and drop kicking session in' the bowl, after which the old uniforms and harness were burned in accord- ance with time honored custom. This was the final football ceremony likely 10 take place in the old Yale field and was witnessed by many -former. Yale players. Tonight the squad is sleeping in the regular college quarters, but will leave early tomorrow forenoon for the New Haven Country club for the final hours before the game. The Harvard squad, some 70 strong; was quartered in New London and will not arrive here until an hour or tw before tnc contest.” The Crimson schedule for the day consisted of an hour's signal drill at Plant field, fol- lowed by a blackboard talk on the new piays and the defensive tactics to be employed against Yale. Coach Haugh: ton refused to state whether Captain Brickley would enter the game at any period against the Blue, but it.was re- ported at the temporary training camp that an authoritative statement on this point might be expected to- morrow morning. Coach Hinkey announced the Yale lineup as follows: Left end, Brann; ckle, Talbott; left guard, Con- toy; center; White; right guard, Wal- den: yight tackle, Betts; right end, Stiliman; quarter, ‘A. Wilson; _left halfback, - Ainsworth; right halfback, Knowles; fullback, LeGore. The officials for the game will be: Referee, Nathan A, Tufts, Brown; um- pire, David Fultz, Brown; linesman, Fred W. Murphy, Brown; field judge, Dr. Carl Williame, University of Penn- sylvania. After a consultation' of _Harvard coaches lasting until 11:30 o'clock to- night, the Crimson lineup for Satur- day was announced as follows: Left end J. Coolidge; left tackle, Parsons; left guard, ‘Weston; center, Wallace; right guard, Pennock; right tackle, Trumbull; right end, "Hard- wick, " quarter, Logan; leff haifback, Bradlee; right halfback, Mahan; full- back Francke.

Their Annual Contest—Dartmouth . Two games stand out in the east- ern _football schedule. today .as of pririe importance. At New Haven the teams of Harvard and Yale univer- sities close their 1914 season with the annual iner-varsity contest, while the powerful elevens “of Dartmouth and yracuse megt at Fenway park, Bos- ton, where a little more than a month ago the world’s baseball champion- ship. was decided. The result of these games will have a direct bearing up- on the final ranking of the eastern college tcams and .will be awaited with unususl interest by football - enthu- siasts_throughout the country. Formal Opening of “Bowl.” The contest at New Haven with its attendant features, including the form- al_opening of the new Yale “Bowl” and the gathering of a record attend ance of spectators will make foot- Dall “bistory. It is mot improbable further more, that the annual strug- gle of the elevens will figure notably in gridiron annals, since the combina- tions appear to be evenly matched in strength and each the master of .a spectacular and diversified attack. The possibilities and advantages of one eleven as seen from certain angles are balanced by the ability of the opposing team -along other lines. It is the un- certainty_as ‘to the outcome of the game, added to the traditional inter- est in this eastern football . classic, that will, it is estimated, attract more han 70,000 spectators to New Haven. - Many propositions enter into a con- sideration of the probable result of the game, not the least of which is the condition of the turf when the teams “take the fleld. Judging from what Yale has shown in the previous contests this season the Elis’ favorite line” of attack s built around the loose-ball, open formation game so far as the bacicfield is concerned. 1If the heavy rain of Thursday = penetrated through the straw covering and soak- ed the newly-turfed gridiron to any extent ,a considerable percentage of the efficiency of this attack will be lost. . Harvard has relied, during a majority of the autumn, on an offen- sive campaign, which, while it calls for much shifting of the ball, is but a modern typfication’ of the old mass formation attack. On a wet and slip- pery field this methdd of advancing the ball would have a decided advan- tage over the ouen-running, lateral and forward passing play. 1t is, however, far from cerfain that cither Yale or Harvard has shown its full offensive strength and play up to this time. It is mot unlikely that the blue has a lineplunging, tackle ekirting attack which can be used ef- fectively if weather conditions do not warrant the use of the Rugby and basketball play. That Harvara is not unfamiliar with the lateral pass and bullet-like forward pass has been demonstrated several times, notably in the” Penn State game, when the Crimson turned defeat into a tie by several brilliant ~ diagonal forward passes in the final minutes of play. ale’s: Attack Will be Spectacular. Based ‘upon the supposition that the turf will be fast and firm tomorrow, Yale’s known attack is certain to be the more spectacular and at times, likely to be'a rapid sround gainer. Many experts, however hold to the opinion that the loose ball play is a dangerous offensive against an eleven of Harvard's® defensive ability. The long lateral and forward passes offer 20 tem of the b ‘behind its’ powerful H.’ll:? opening .or a snort run oiitside tackle, is @ slower but more consistent ground-gainer, with the danger of loss henomenal. line plunger, Maulbetsch, :)nld not drive Harvard back across ":eauu Cahmbridge, but a large ma- jority of the toucndowns came as the Tesult of forward passes or long runs well' outside tackle or end. Yale Has Hard Attack. ‘on the contrary, has shown Xnyl‘al:;rfl,m that her forwards were to invulnerable. Given poses- Sion of the ball, the backfield with its mixed attack, is hard to held in check and the forwards swing into almost every play with speed -and and strength. On the defense, there is neither the same checking power or the same rapid and effective co-opera- tion between lino and secondary for- mation. . Facing an attack such as Harvard has relied upon for most of its gains this season. this is a_serious defect. The danger has been fully realized at Neow Haven and the coaches have spent much time preparing for the Crmison’s close line drives. The suc- Gess or failure of thi defensive coach- ing may spell the difference between victory and defeat. In the kicking department of play, with its closely interwoven offensive and defensive features, the two elev- ens appear to be evenly matched. Le Gore, the Yale fullback, drives the ball further than either Mahan, Hard- wick or Franke, but his punts are not as well timed or as effectively placed as those of the Harvard backs and there is lacking, as a rule, the clean covering by the ends which has been a noticeable’ feature of the Crimson’s same. In fleld goal kicking Harvard, even with Captain Brickley elimniated, is far superior to the Blue. In the eight games to date Cambridge play- ers led by Mahan have scored five times over the bar while not a single aerial point has been made by Yale. Le Gore’s attempts against Princeton were extremely amateurinsh and he appeared in them to lack the confi- dence and power that so distinguish- ed_his punting. Neither eleven holds its oponent lightly, however, and the coaches all predict a ‘battle royal with new and sensational plays to be uncovered in the closing contest of the year for the two big teams. ‘Quarterback general- ship and the element of luck are two important factors which will have a the play and cannot be freoscat decided bearing on the outcome of the play and cannot be forecast with any degree of certainty. Coach Haughton of Harvard has said that the Yale eleven is the best since 1909. Coach Herring of Princeton stated after the 20 to 0 defeat of his team by the Crimson - that if Harvard played the same game against Yale the Cam- bridge eleven could hardly fail to win. - Coach Hinkey, _following _his taciturn methods when a captain at Yale, has said nothing for publica- tion but what he has said to the Yale players relative to their fighting spirit and the university expectations are probably forceful enough. Dartmouth vs Syracuse. Much the same type of contest may be expected at Boston where Dart- mouth and Syracuse meet. Both elev- ens have splendid records and power- ful combinations for the day’s play. It would appear from the season’s work that the Hanoverians are a trifle stronger in general all-round attack and defense but this margin is so nar- row that it could be easily wiped out by conditions likely to prevail in to- morrow's struggle. Princeton defeated both Syracuse and Dartmouth by close scores, the New York state team losing 7 to 12 and the New England eleven 12 to 16. While comparative football scores are trick propositions to figure with, the general play of the two teams tijoughout the season would appear to indicate that their re- spective showing against the Tigers forms a fairly accurate basis for com- parison.

CLIMAX IN EASTERN FOOTBALL. Yale Mests Harvard for 35th Time. New Haven, Conn., Nov. 20.—The climax of the eastern football season will be staged at New Haven tomorrow when the teams of Yale and Harvard universities meet in the 35th game of the intervarsity series which began in 1875. During this stretch of 40 vears intercollegiate football and its attend- ant features have undergone remark- able evolutions. Numerous changes in the playing rules have been made and the theory and methods of attack and defense radically altered. All these variations in the game and piay sink into insignificance when compared with the great transformation of foot- ball from the spectacular and specta- tor’s standpoint. In the early days of the contests the teams met upon-the college green and fought out their annual game, ringed by a thin fringe of undergraduates and town folk. Admission charges were eithier nominal or entirely dispensed with and the cheering of the few hun- dred- spectators unorganized and unim- Dressive. Wonderful progress in the popularty of football has been made since the initial game and tomorrow marks another epoch in the game, for the elevens of 1914 will battle in a stadium larger and more impressive than any structure ever buiit for col- lege sport in this country. Onto the turfed and lime lined arema of this stadium will trot tomorrow afternoon the gridiron squads of rival universi- ties, whilc more than 70,000 spectators cheer the players and substitutes. The advance gnard of the thousands who wil contribute fully $140,000 to the athletic associations of the two universities for the privilege of wit- nessing the game are already pouring into this city by train, boat and motor car. The night before gathering has taxed the capacity of the local hostel- ries to an extent never before experi- enced here and the overflow has been shunted into private dwellings as a last resort for the night. This rush is but, the forerunner of the throngs that ére echeduled to descend upon New Haven tomorrow. With a new stadium with a seating capacity almost twice as great as the former wooden stands at Yale field, additional thou- sands have taken the opportunity to witness one_of the football classics of the year. More than 50 per cent, of the spectators will come from points outside this city. According to the railroad management about 35,000 per- sons will be moved by special trains, 25 of which will start from New York city and 15 from Boston. in addition to_the resularly scheduled service. That the game itself, aside from the dedication features of the new Yale bowl, and the assembling of a record gathering of football enthusiasts, will prove an exceedingly interesting con- test is the general opinion of the coaches and experts who have followed the work of the eclevens all season. Harvard is a slight favorite in the wagering, due to the showing made in the cight games played to date and the fact that Percy Haughton and his successfu! coaching system holds full sway at Cambridge. Yale, on the other hand, is just finishing the first season of a'new campaign cf football under ths tutelage of Frank Hinkey, former captain and end at the Yale teams of 1893 and 1894. This slight preponderance of sup- port in favor of the Crimson is due chiefly, however, to the better show- ing made by Harvard in the prelim- inary games of the schedule. The Cambridge eleven has won all its games with the exception of the con- test with Penn State, which resulted in a tie at 13 to 13. In six of the first seven games Harvard ran up double figure scores, Michigan alone being able to bold Haughton's pupils to a | single touchdown without the accom- | panying field goals which have markeq {all the other contests. Yale has also | proved that it possessed a strong scoring attack, but has played erratic | football, especially on the defense. Two_opportunities are offered for a comparative score analysis in the games against Washington and Jeffer- son and Brown. Harvard defeated the Pennsylvania team 10 to 9 on Oct. 10, while two weeks later the same eleven won from Yale 1 3to 7. Agatnst Brown, the Blue lined up a feam of regulars and substitutes in about| squal proportions, so tiat the victory of 14 to 7 carries greater weight than the Harvard substitute eleven’'s score- less tie with Brown. Whatever the relative merits of the 1914 teams, the Blue has a long string of victories over the Crimson to_its credit, when the series is reviewed as a whole. In the earliest days of the game, when the point system of scor- | img was unknown. Yale gaiped a lead | which she has held so flrmly ever since. Since 1883, when touchdowns, soals and field goals were accorded a point value, Yale has won 17 games to | Harvard’s 6, while § resulted in tie | Contests. In the total number of points scored, the Elis have e biz margin over the Crimson, the totals being Yale 279, Harvard 107. The Blue elevens have shut out Crimson teams on 18 occasions, while the Harvard victorles over Yale in which the Elis Were unable to score number but 4. In recent years the Cambridge teams | have developed a strength when facing the Blue quite unknown to the elevens of the ‘90s.
