In the kicking department oth sides are . | well provided with toe shooters, Har- vard with Dick Humphreys, Ralpb Horween and “Babe” Felton; Yale with Jim Braden and Thorne Murphy One of this number is likely to pop over the winning points as both the Crimson and the Biue- with their rugged defenses will make touch- ,| downs very difficult to attain.

Desmond, the fast 200-pound end who was in- jured tthe Princeton game, and Ralph Horween, the Crimson's heavy- weight line plunger. are back in the line-up and primed for action. While Yale plans to send the same | combination against Harvard that | faced the Tigers, a late change may ' be made at left end, with Babe Allen giving way to Kebipaon, who only a | few weeks ago was an unknown on the fourth squad. Allen has been troubled all season with an old injury that has retarded his speed. Robin- son's advancement has been little short of amazing. He is big and fast and a savage tackler. .He relieved Allen in the Princeton battle. That the Blue and Crimson are it as evenly matched as two elevens can possibly be is borne out by early wagering in this city. Har- vard supporters refuse to give odds and Yale men seem quite satisfied to risk their wealth at even money on the outcome of Saturday's titanic | struggle. Reports from New Haven state that j the Elis will depend on the same tac- tics used against the Tigers. Line smashing will be the heavy guns {pointed against Johnny Harvard. When the crafty Bulldog talks this ting way, the Crimson better look out for some new formation the Blue has not flashed to date. Only box seats can now be procured for the Army and Navy setto at the Polo Grounds, and these come at $25 ja throw, All other tickets have been disposed of, both academies going high over their allotment of tickets, At Columbus this Saturday Ohio ¢ |State and Minos will clash to wWecide, the championship of the Weste-n Conference.

This in itself is a bom)-~- shell, The board has discovered thut | under the consttution there is no au- thority for the President calling the annual meeting. Moreover, this con- | stitution expressly stipulates that all matters pertaining to the business of the league is the function of the Board of Directors. The courts muy decide as to the correctness of this. (2) The board has thrown anothe bombshell by demanding that Johnson furnish any papers showing’ bow and why he was elected F dent of the If you will remember, the prevails that Johnson was r @ term of twenty years, or some long period, ac an enurmous salary. Tho {constitution expressly gtipulates t | the President of the American .2agu must be elected annually, The bua! ‘looking into the matter closely, . | to find any record of when and whi ‘Johnson was elected as provided | the constitution. n go as far as to say that as Johnson was not elected according to the provisions of the constitution he has been holding office illegally, so far as tho league is concérned, for several years. The courts may also be called upon to decide that matter. A copy of the resolution and a let- ter has been eent to Johnson by messenger, accompanied by a written |request that he submit information Jon the subjects wt the egrilest pox sible moment. As a resuit of this hurling of boru’s- shells the American League Is in a predicament from which it may not recover for a long time. Here is what may happen: If three clubs in response to the call for an Annual meeting gather in New York, and the other five decline to be present, the board may name a ew President and a new Board of Directors as called for in the const!- jtution. ‘They may frame a scheduic |and arrange all business for next ee: - n, keeping in close conformity the constitution. The other five clubs, sticking clove to Johnson, may meet in Chicago and go through the dame process, The result will be two Presidents, two Boards of Directors, two scheduley, c, has gor ° Obviously, it would be impossible for a league to operate under those circumstances. One or the other of the contending factions must aur- render. On the face of it the board, made up of Mr, Comis! Col. Ruy an Harry Frazee, within their righis ~ under the cot ition, They propose to fight it out on that line. If it ce to a legal decision they are prepared to submit the matter to the courts and fight it out as to which is in authority.
