YALE EXPECTED TO WIN

With the Princeton game only TWO
weeks away, Yale finds herself in very

Brown Making Ready for Battle With
Yale Prospects Bright.
Poor Gard Of Boxing Events for Fight
Fans This Week.

Since the showing made 10y the Brown
university football team on Saturday.
when the strong Syracuse team was so
decisivsly beaten, many OF the followers
OF the team have been wondering just
how strong the team Is aud what show
ing will be made against Yale in the
meeting next Saturday.
II is conceded by all who saw or fol-
lowed the games that Brown did not show
10 her best advantage I'm the Pennsy
game or in the game at Harvard. though
the showing I'm the latter game was by
far better than IL was at the Pennsy game.
where the team took on n severe case
Of stage fright.
Since the game Saturday many are
wondering why the showing was not bet
ter against Harvard and are also max
ing forecasts as To the result Of the meet
ing with Yale on next Saturday. Ii Will
be remembered that Yale is the only
other team besides Brown that has beaten
Syracuse and then the score was not
so large as that piled up by the local
men. Yale could only score is points
against Syracuse, while Brown rolled up
score OF q and still held them safe.
gamers for Brown out of the game.
OF course the excuse was made that
Syracuse was not playing her best game
on Saturday for some unaccountable
reason. However that may be. from the
dash and spirit In the play it is doubtful
II the score would have resulted other
wise than il did. though there might have
been "A smaller score. In view OF the
fact that Brown rolled up a higher score
than did Yale against the same team
there is much hope among the hill men
and followers of the team here that Yale
viii not only be scored on. but there Is a
possibility OF the Blues colors trailing in
the dust OF defeat
The coaches are TO shape the team up
for the game on Saturday with the one
object of giving the Yale men the hard
est struggle possible, stra ning a point

the final contest with Dartmouth there
will be time enough intervening to get

day Ehmke showed that he Is a star Of the
FIRST water, being speedy and as strong

many time when the runner was downed
he crawled along the ground few feet
