If 1 should be necessary NCETON: HAS ae ee a FLAWS IN NEW TIGER TEAM, BUT PLAYERS ARE FIGHTERS Roper’s Squad Hopes to Restore Faliing Prestige of the East in the Most Important Intersectional Battle of the Season With Stagg’s Men. By William Abbott. RINCETON, first of the Big Three to ever invade the sliddle West, Pi: an even chance of winning from Chicago. The Tigers will put on the field to-morrow a great fighting team, one that’s been keyed up specially to revenge last year's 9 to Princeton's new team still has 0 defeat. numerous flaws, but there can be no questioning its fighting spirit. And the Tigers went west bent not only on wipiry out last year's defeat, but on n restoring the falling prestige of the Bast in the most {mportant intersectional battle this season. During the past week there's been ® & decided shifting of sentiment on to- morrow's game, When Iowa trimmed Yale Chicago rooters boasted their eleven would easily tame the Tigers Now they doubt whether the Maroon will defeat Princeton. Impressed with the preparations made for the Chicago battle, Orange and Diack ad~- mirers are now taking even money Old Nassau will triumph in the West. Roper and Stags, rival coaches, en- couptered the same problem to bring thelr teams along for to-morrow's game. It was necessary to build an almost entire new Princeton team Stagg had to fill five new positions. Both coaches had unusual trouble finding quarterbacks. The outcome of the game. no doubt, will depend on the performance of the rival quar- terbacks, who will both be new to thelr positions for a big battle. TIGERS BEGAN PREPARING FOR GAME EARLY. Princeton, smarting from the Chi- cago defeat last year and urged by alumni all over tie country, began preparations for the return engage- ment last summer when "Puffy" Bir- ler, BIN Roper's chief assistant, was sent west to learn all he could about Stage’s method. Before college opened Roper took a squad of back- field men to his camp in Maine for early instruction. There was need for this unusual move. The Tigers lost practically all their 1921 regulars. Only Cleaves, Baker and Snively wer available this season, From the first day of practice at ru’e, Ag many es twenty coaches were frequently on the field. The Tigers were none too impressive in thelr early games until last Saturday wheh the eleven for the first time bared its punch. Even while many changes were made in these prelim- Inary contests the Tigers at all timer managed to prevent their opponents from scoring. Princeton has been remarkably free of injuries, Of the squad of thirty- five that went to Chicago only ono member, Lawrence, a substitute guard, was not in top form, This Is vastly different than on the eve of the 1921 Chicago encounter, when the Tigers were crippled by injuries and their morale was none too high. This year’s Orange and Black has another advantage over the 1921 com bination in the matter of reserve Roper could send in three backfielda against Chicago without reducing the offensive power. There are also first- class substitutes for the line. Johnny Gorman undoubtedly wi!) start at quarter for Princeton, He has been sub quarter two years. Gorman gets the best drive out of his men and runs well with the ball him- self. His generalship ts yet to be thoronrhly tested. The other Prince- ton quarterbacks are Bergen, Dins- more, Wingate and Pagenkoft. Win- gate and Pagenkoft were freshmen stars last year. Their failure to meas- ure up this season was a big blow to the coaches, CLEAVES SURE OF PLACE BACKFIELD. Jack Cleaves, a veteran, {s sure of a place in the backfield. He is Prince- ton’s ace. Cleaves clever onen fil! runner, will also do the punting. The other backs will likely be Dick New- by, another fast runner, and Caldwell, a newcomer, whose specialty ts defen- = THE COLUMBIA-N. Y. U. GAME SHOULD HAVE BEEN CALLED “NO CONTEST” By William Abbott. Football circles at Y. U. and Columbia are still in a state of agitation over Referee Morice's reversal of his decision three days after the game and awarding Col- umb‘a a 6 to 2 victory, A review of t'e questioned play, when N. Y¥. U. blocked a kick and the ball rolled over the side line and was recovered by a Violet player, shows that N. Y. U. did indeed score’ a safety and not a touch- down, which Morice allowed at the tue. Under the rule that a referee's decision is final, Morice reversed himself three days later and awarded the game to Columbia on a 6 to 2 decision. In the opinion of the writer, this is when Morice erred. He should have decided there had been no contest. It was unfair to penalize Columbia by giving N. Y. U. a touchdown on a safety that should have been apparent to the officials, It is a greater hardship to XU ‘however, to reverse the score long after the game had been played. No contest is the fairest way out of the unfortunate tangle, * EDGREN WILL COVER CHICAGO-TIGER GAME Robert Edgren, leading sport writer of the country, will cover the Chicago - Princeton football game to be played at Chicago to- morrow for The Evening World ‘The story of all the plays and tn- side strategy of the competing teams will be printed in to-mor- row's late editions. An analytical story on how the game was played will be printed on the sporting pages of Monday's editions, sive work. Caldwell is of the Gilroy type, a valuable man backing up the line, Gray and Tillson will start at ends Both were subs lust season. Treat former Boston College star, anc “Pinkic’ Baker will be the tackles. Baker is a veteran and always held down a guard position until Roper shifted him to the right side of the line and made a tackle of him, Baker ought to be one of the leading lines- men this year. Mel Dickinson, who was made cap- tain when Gilroy was barred by the faculty, is a veteran and a capable guard, He was ineligible in 1921 The other guard will be “Whoops Snively, an end last year and a half- back this season until he was caugh, in one of the many experiments Roper made, and finally landed at right guard, Snively, while rather light, has been coached especially for his new job. His chief strength to the team {is the ability to throw passes. Snively can pass a ball nearly sev enty yards, The Tigers have per fected a special formation from which Snively throws forward passes. Alford will have first choice for centre. He is a former Navy star and a substitute Princeton halfback last year, Alford tips about 185. He passes accurately and plays a strong roving game. STAGG HAD HARD TIME DEVEL- OPING TEAM. Stagg has had a tough time deve! oping his Chicago team. He started with four quarterbacks, Including his own sun. Helle, however, shows the best form and will start against the Tigers. Zorn and John Thomas, who starred against Princeton last year, are again in the lineup, but Thomas has been nursing an injured leg. The other backfield berth is still open, ac- cording to latest reports from Chi- cago. f So ts the right end. The Maroon line 1s a mixture of veteran and new material. Judging from the performance in the early games Stagg now does not possess the wonderfully coached and efficient team that rolled back the Tigers in 1921. Romney, clever quar- terback, and McGuire, giant tackle, are badly missed from the Maroon machine, 8 ——- “MYSTERY TEAM” OF CHICAGO ALL SET FOR TIGER CONTEST CHICAGO, Oct, 2% (Associated Press).—Chicago, the “mystery” team of the Western Conference, is veady for her second clash with Princeton here Saturday afternoon in what will be one of the country's biggest foot ball games.

T is unlikely that you have heard of the prophet of Anoka—or even i Anoka. That 1s your loss. Anoka is in Minnes.ta and its celebrated prophet is Jim McNulty. MeNulty has been in the propheting business for years. When he speaks much of Minnesota puts its ear to the ground. It may be that you didn't know that the Anoka prophet announced long ago that the League of Nations would be a failure because President Wilson had Congress meet on March 2, a Sunday, thereby violating the Sabbath law. You may also be interested to know that the President of the United States in 1945 will be a woman, a blonde with pretty blue eyes, wearing a pink silk dress, Of local interest, though, is a decree of the Anoka prophet written to competitive and educational tour. Miss Charlotte Epstein, of the association, who was charge of the American mermaids at the Olympiad of 1920 in Ant- werp, has been asked to accom- pany the youthful as chap- eron. While acceptance of the invita- tion will have to await sanction of the W. S. A. Board of Gov- ernors, one of the officers of the organization said that Miss Ederle and Miss Wainwright already had declared that the approval of the board virtually was a foregone conclusion. so far. ginia that he called the turn for years back. For ins Having thus established the record of the Anoka prophet let us proceed Col, T. L.
