YALE HAS IMPROVED.
READY FOR PRINCETON NEXT SATURDAY
WORRIED ABOUT GLASS

New Haven. Conn, Nov. 10 (SpeciaD.-Yale's play
IN the Orange game on Saturday demonstrated be-
yond a doubt that the Yale has tremendous
power in it. and that Captain Goulds team can
both hold heavy line attack and can develop some
pretty hard attacks itself. Yale's game the
ceanest seen this season. next to the Annapolis
game, which the high water mark. The team
played with snap and fire. dashed into every play
with plenty of hustle and tore things up like paper
in the Orange line There were individual plays Of
real brillIance including Chadwick's seventy yard
to touchdown, De Saulless clever backs
from kickoffs and punts Swans work at end, Hart's
and Hauilin's line and end runs, De SauIles's kick
ing and Glasss fine defence and rush work. If the
team that played Saturday lines up against Prince
ton next Saturday Yale will be in a fair way to do
things. Now that the West Pointers have added
the Tigers to their list OF victims and treated them
to even a harder dose than Yale got, ii would
as II Yale had good chance to win Prince
ton.
From the work OF the Yale It would appear
that it viii need q heavy team break up that
fine defence. Yale held all but two OF the attacks
made her line by the Orange men. and her ends
were pretty doubtful places in which TO try to ad-
vance the ball. Every time Orange tried al
around Swan It lost five yards. and Rafferty,
nearly as fast. The back field also
rate in catching punts that 1t dangerous to let
Yale get the ball on kick. Iale also showed some
ability punting herself. De Saulles doing some
clever forty yard kicks and putting the ball
over the goal bars for a goal from field Weymouth
Saues. Olcott and Gould viii do OF the
work Dewitt will find that he has his hands full
II he tries 10 match punts with the Yale kickers.
The situation, excepting the shadow which lies
the account of the Glass mystery, is much
more hopeful than II a week ago The week
has of the remarkable in Yales
football history. Within ten days of the big Prince
ton game with reports from the Tigers OF rosy
prospect. the Yale team has continued in state
OF torpOr. playing listlessly. fumbling and letting
a weak scrub team score on it. There has been
only day of secret practice since the Columbia
game-some thing which is remarkable for a Yale
team. In fact. the eleven seemed 10 be slowly
sill backward gloom
meated the entire university. One day there were
hardly forty undergraduates at Yale Field to see
the practice, and there has been no cheering or
marching the field in past years Then Fri
day the team took brace. and yesterday played
ga me that was remarkable Tor its dash and spirit.
With her lineup Yale will present strong
aggregation as there is IL the country. and will
take a lot OF beating. The week WILL of course, be
the most important In the season. each days
poIishfng will put the team that much ahead.
Secret practice will begin right away again and
there will be n horde of coaches here. 1t is proba
BILE that Gordon Brown. captain OF last years
eleven will be on hand most OF the week. He may
be able to help along things.
Captain Gould said tonight in relation TO the
Glass eligibility case: I'VE have yet arrived
at any decision. and shall not. probably. until the
