a potas Vie * _~ A OLUMN FOOTBALL’S —— First Forward Steps Toward | America’s Participation in! Next Olympic Meet Will Be Taken To-Night. {URE on the part of the United Btates Senate to ratify the peace treaty very likely has settled the mach discussed question as to the Admission of German athletes in the Olympic games to be held at Antwerp. England has practically delivered an ultimatum in which her Athletic Asso- elation declares that if Germany is permitted to enter, Great Britain will withdraw. The French are also op- Posed to German participation. With the peace treaty not ratified by the United States, we are technically at war, and the heads of the committee way it is out of the question to even a the matter at present. The absence of an rican team would Keil the project. So it looks as if the Germans will have to “rause.” ‘The first formal steps toward Amer- lea’e participation will be-taken at a meeting of the Olympic Committee tonight. Col. Osterreith, the Belgian Director General of Sports, will be Present and will explain in detail ar- rangements for the first Olympiad sinee the Stockholm games in 1912. i Shh Governn WASHINGTON WiLL RUN! ITSELF TOMORROW ITH the conclusion of the Army- Navy game to-morrow, the football season fs over. It ‘will go down in sporting history as the greatest year known to the grid- fron. Even to the most inconspicuous games great crowds have flocked an‘ at Harvard, Princeton and Yale all records are broken. “After two years of’ waiting on account of the war, the whole country suddenly went mad over our greatest college sport. Those who never had any college aMiiations took to the games with the enthus- jam that marks a World Series in baseball. In fact the crowd at tho Yale-Harvard game was more than twice the size of any attendance at Cincinnati when the Reds were beat- ing the White Sox. trainers for years have pointed out the advantage of foot- ball in developing manliness and com- bative spirit, It would appear that the reverse of this is also true, The combative spirit that gripped the Ni tion for two years seems to have turned everybody toward football.

Coach Dobie is making a mystery of his lineup. He even suggests there will be some surprises when the mid, dies face the Army. If radical changes are made at the last hour it will undoubtedly mean that Capt. Ewen will be dropped and Lowe sub- stituted In his place and also the placing of Wilkie in at right guard instead of Moore at right guard, and Wiedorn in at right tackle for King. Most of these changes if made wou add considerable weight to the light middy line.
