Coach: Rush and Captain Glick have been praised, and deservedly to a great desree, as coach and captain of the Princeton team and sponsors for_the remarkable showing made by the Tig- ers this year.

A Room for improveme: In.either case. either the tactics or the . coaching was lacking, and al- though _great improvement in other respects must be admitted, there was room and possibility of still greater, and this, if used or developed last weels, would have retained for Prince- ton its claim with Cornell and Pitts- burg-for the eastern championship. Harvard's tactics in that game, both as. they concerned Coach _Haughton and Quarterback Watson, were flaw- less. Seeing that Mahar was outpunt- ing Driggs, Watson called for punts on first or second downs until Harvard was in a position to score, and when New ‘London school. athletic, officials request their remgval from lineup Saturday.

Yet, despite this improvement and despite Princeton’s strong showing, much better showing could have been made, and Princeton might still have a just claim to the football champlon- =hip of the east had the Tiger.tactics been adjusted to conditions. There is a question in the minds of many football followers as to whether the success of the Tiger rushing at- tack was the result of the inspiration ‘which came’ to the Princeton team when its men saw its place as a pos- sible champion being taken from them, Mahan’s kicks began to lack the dis- tance of those of Driggs, Watson kept the team rushing the ball on_every possible ion. No Easy Victory Over Yale. Now approaches the Princeton-Yale game. Princeton cannot look for an easy victory over the Blue.

Yale Will Play Tactical Game. Yale can be counted upon to play the game from a tactical angle and play it well. It was tactics that gave Yale a victory over Princeton and a virtual vietory over Harvard in 1910, when Sheviin was called upon to pull to- gether a much battered Eli eleven. Shevlin replaced defensive men by offensivé men, when he confronted Princeton's 1810 defensive team, and he replaced offensive men for defen- sive men when he encountered Har- vard’s 1910 offensive team, and by do- ing 50 he beat Princeton and tied Har- vard. Sheviin Has Better Mate: - 1810, This year with much better material upon, which to work: with an cight- day advantage in whipping these men inte shape, and with the defensive ability of these men shown, despite the obsence om. several real stars, Shevlin is in a better position to make a strong showing than he was in"1910. Yale men and Yale players are confi- dent of making such a showing. The players have replaced despair at con- tinual defeats by the teams of smaller colleges with confidence of beating its two big rivals, which gives them a b‘f asset at the start and with Shevlin manipulating the tactical as- pect of Saturday’s game, !Princeton will be put to its best. Psychologically, Yale has an advan- tage in having recovered from the despair of defeat, just as Princeton has experienced such despair. Tac- ticaH Yale has an adGvantage with Sheviin at the wheel, over Princeton with Rush at the wheel. ~Princeton’s players and the Princeton team, as a whole, have shown more and better football than Yale in past games, Upon whether this ability of Prince- ton's will overcome the psychological and tactical advantages of Yale, Sat- urday's game will turn, and Yale men are confident it will turn in their fa- vor. Than in FEDERAL LEAGUE TO PUT A TEAM IN NEW YORY. Kansas City Club, Franchise Forfeited, Will Be Sent to Metropolis. Indianapolis, Ind., Nov. 9.—Directors of the Federal league at their annual meeting here today definitely decided to invade New York in 1916. The Kansas City club, whose franchise was declared forfeited, will be sent to New Yorlk and strengthened so that it merit the support of the New York fans* James A. Gilmore, who was reelected president of the league, stat- ed after the meeting that grouads had been obtained on Manhattan Island for the New York club. He said plans had been submitted for stands to seat 5. 000 persons and that the league would be ready for operation in New York at the beginning of the 1916 season. The Buffalo franchise also was for- feited, but it is understood that the owners will reorganize and that Buffa- lo will have a place in the league next season. “It is believed,” said President Gil- more in his statement, “that the Buffa. lo situation will be taken care of prop- erly by the citizens of that communi- tyo in addition to Mr. Gilmore, who was reelected president and treasurer, the league named the following officers: Vice president, George S. Ward, Brooklyn. Secretary, Thomas W. Giimore, Chi- cago. Reports from the clubs were re- celved and “after consideration of all the facts,” reads the statement, “we felt that we were well rewarded for our operations in 1915.’ . President Giimore said no games had been protestad. After the meeting the majority of the club owners departed for French Lick, Ind., where it was reported they would meet representatives of organ- izéd, baseball’ with a view to settling the. “war” between the Federals and organized baseball. It was said that Barney Drevfuss, of the _Pittsburgn Nationals; Colonel Jacob Ruppert, of the New York Americans and Charles Comiskey of the Chicago Americans, were in French Lick, but a despatch from French Lick said Colonel Rup- pert was the only organized baseball man there. . Those who attended the meeting and went to French Lick were: Pre dent Gilmore, Phil Ball, St. Louls; Bd- ward Gwinner, Pittsburgh; Will B. Robertson, - Buffalo and Carfoll Rasin, Baltimore!

Ac- cording to a report made at a stock- holders’ meeting here October 25, the local club was in debt to the leazue to_the extent of $8,300, Notwithstanding the financial loss the pald attendanco here this seaso according to the club's figures, was $82,060.

There was no club ' in the _eight stood out dangerously prominent - in either superior ability’ or lack of it. Consequently all the clubs were evenly matched and a close race re- sulted. Race Won Easily. It is a notorious fact that the seaso: of 1915 in the National League af- forded a condition in_which any one of the ‘eight clubs had . an chance to win the peunant than has cver been presented . in the thirty years of its existence. The racord of games won and -the winning per- centage of the Phillies, that were the lowest in the history of the league, conclusively proves that. Now what is the answer? Was it because there were too many veterans-in the various clubs who had become passe in ability— outlived their usefulness—or was it for the reason that the players now coming out are not up to the stand- ard of those of a few years ago? Big league scouts were loud in their complaints of there mot - being any youthfu! talent of any high de- gree of promise ‘to be dug up, ‘and consequently there were fewer young players purchased outright than in any previous season. . The _scouts were afraid to take chances, and so made no favorable reports; One cannot imagine such a horrible state of af- fairs as that the scouts were not capable of picking out the coming Ty Cobbs, Christy Matliewsons, Wal- that | easier | ter . Johnsons, ‘Shoeless” Jacksons and others of like phencmenal abil- ity. That, indeed, would be a bad state of affairs. ~ But as the scouts were paid- for 'their supposed ability, any- how, their: judgment -must be ac- cepted, and ‘that. is that there are no more, yguthful “phenoms” in exist- ence! | " Must Develop Talent.
