Foot ball gourmets are Smackfng their
lips over the rich dishes on today's menu.
Foremost in popular interest is the Prince
ton-Cornell game at the Polo Grounds. New
York the first of the big encounters that
will have a direct bearing on deciding the
championship of the year. and a game over
which Gotham Is feverishly excited. Har-
ward Is to play at West Point and the usual
big crowd will be there. The soldiers never
have beaten Harvard, and they are not in
any too good condition to meet The Crimson
today. especially as the latter is Coing bet
ter work for this time OF the year than
ever before. but the fact that they are go
ing against a formidable adversary does
not overawe the cadets. who invariably p ay
all the harder for having a hard game.
The Pennsylvania Indian game Is another
important melee to be held this afternoon,
and the Redmen have been working dill
gently and determtnedly to be at their best
for the Quakers The Quakers' coaches are
bteginning to see light at last and have
gotten rid of some of the faults which dark
ened the Pennsylvania horizon for time.
The team is beginning to show streaks of
the first class foot ball of which its friends
think II capable and Is expected to show
better form against the Indians than it has
yet done; but for all that the Indians are
none the less hopeful. There Is one team
that they rarely fail to play their best
game against, and that team is the Penn
sylvania.
In Amherst, Yale will meet team that
has had but little experience this year in
actual games. but one representative of a
college pretty well versed in foot bail and
capable of disclosing a speedier game than
Yale has stacked up against this season.
Coach Hutchinson of Amherst was YaleS
star quarter back last year. and knows
how to drive a team at a whirlwind clip.
