“TIGERS BULD NEW TEAM AFTER DRASTIC MOVES} = Coach Roper Makes Radical Changes As Best Way to Handle Green Material—Treat Raises Princeton’s Hopes. By William ‘Abbott. Copyright, 1922 (The New York Evening World), by Press Publishing Company. Princeton's chances are not nearly as black as pessimistic tales from Wungletown would make them. Coach Roper is making unexpected head- Way after using drastic measures to overcome an unprecedented situation Drought about by a faculty ruling barring Capt. Gilroy and Herbert Treat nd a wholesale loss of stars by graduation. ) The basketball squad was ruided¢ for new talent. Several promising football men, ineligible in 1921, be- ame available this season, and like ® doctor shaking his medicine, Roper mixed up his squad, turning backs tmto forwards and shifting ends to the backfield to get maximum results. With the reinstatement of Treat, a tackle at Boston College tivo ago, Olt Nassau's outlook as- mes a brighter hue. While rival coaches had only to three or four positions, Roper forced to recast almost an entire team from green material. Only regulars were on hand, Jack leaves, halfback; “Wink” Baker, , and “Whoops” Snively, end. To gain a little earlier start Coach had a small group of backtied men in August up in his Maine camp } for preliminary instruction. This early practice at least served ne purpose. It convinced Roper of the need of several radical changes | When the entire squad was assembled at Princeton, Snively, regular end Tast year, was promptly moved to the backfield, while Alford, a halfback and former Navy star, joined the candi- iates for the pivot position, The Princeton coach in 1921 made a suc- cessful experiment when Al Wittmer Was transformed from a haltbeck to ®& very capable centre. The same thing may happen in Alford’s case, Putting Snively in the backfleld is ® clever move to mask the Tigers’ Torward passing attack nively weighs close to 170, is fust and ag- gressive, but his specialty is hurling forward passes. Ho threw the pigskin further than any passer the writer observed last season. But Princeton's strategy was weakened with Mnively @t end, because every time he was called back to pass, the opposing side minger, @ 200-pound star from last year's freshmen; Howard and McMi!- ton are others struggling for a tackle berth, BAKER AND TREAT STRONG AT GUARDS. The guards are well taken care of by Baker and Treat, whose reinstate- ment went a long way toward solving the Ine situation. Baker, while al- most 200, is speedy for his size and a powerful forward. He also is one of the few veterans on the squad. Baker hardly recetved credit for his fine work in 1921 because Capt. Keck monopolized attention on the Orange and Black line. Treat stands 6.3 and tips 195, « wonderful specimen of football abil- ity. He was a great tackle at Boston College two years ago. Roper is grooming Treat for guard, a rather surprising shift, as tackle has always been his natural position. Hills, formerliy of Wesleyan, has an excellent chance of becoming a permanent guard if Treat should eventually be moved to tackle. Hills tips 195 and in @ weight man of con- siderable skill. Other guard candi- dates are Harry Troop and Snyder, Lawrence, Griffin and Alford, who was moved over from the backfield, are having a hot tussle for the pivot position, All three are about the same type, rather short and stocky. At present chances favor elther Law- rence, who was 1921 freshman centre, or Alford, who gained football ex- perience at Annapolis before coming to Princeton, Both coaches and players realize \ great deal of work is necessary if the Tiger ts to have a representative cloven this season.

CLEAVES SURE OF PLACE BACKFIELD. Jack Cleaves, one of the three reru Bus from last year, {r practically a fixture in the backfield. Ho was a consistent ground alner against Harvard and Princeton, especially tn off-tackle thrusts, Cleaves now tips about 175, seven pounds heavier than last year, After the loss of Lourie, Garrity and then Gilroy it seemed almost a hopeless task for Roper to gather a new backfield combination, but the ie became easier with the return of eral second-string men from last year’s squad. In this group the most promising is Newby, who played well against the Navy, only to have his arm fractured §n practive a few days later. “There goes my best running back, time any member of the Big Three ever invaded the West.

The Crucial Moment|ff| ]|(§ FINSH LIKE CHAMPIONS AFTER POOR START Beat Albany All-Stars in First Game of Season in Garden. Original Celtic fans feit quite dreary at the end of the first half of last night's’ game at Madison Sqtare Garden. The Albany All-Stars, who held the champions to a tle last year, visited New York for the purpose of finishing the job which they left un- done. The score at half time, after a rather prosaic contest, was 11 to 10, with Albany In the lead. The Celtics could not ~auge thetr shots correttly. Beckman missed several easy Meld goals as well as many fouls. Leonard and Barry were not playi in good form. Haggerty seamed more like an brnament than anything ¢lse As a matter of fact, the fans were all prepared to witness the defeat of what appeared to be the remains of a good quintet. Marty Barry of the All-Stars played circles around the Celtic members, and even though he failed on several fleld shots, his piay- ing was clearly the best during the first half, Delmert, with four goale to his credit, starred for the New York team in the first session. But then came the fireworks.

It was their alter-- nate Iine-rushing and long end-run. ning which were most instrumental In coring two touchdowns for every pe- son. riod throughout the game, except the veond, In which only one was scored Both men are medium weight, but husky and lightning fast blond and Koppisch dark-hatred and a ire to be football matinee tdols before the season's show 1s over. Lew Gehrig, the 210-pound Colum- Roderick ts bia fullback, looks a lot better in prac- tico than he did in Saturday's game Gehrig outkicks Roder in practice, but Roderick 1s far more dependable in the stress of battle, and Gehrig s nervousness or inexperience under fire caused him to fumble the bal! once on the one-yard line when a touchdown for Columbia was tnevitable. But Gehrig {3 a powerful athicte and a first-class line-plunger. Credit should be given to the whole Columbia team as a machine.
