YALE FOLLOWERS
ARE CHEERFUL

The Yale varsity was given it's last
hard work before the Princeton game
yesterday afternoon at New Haven,
and the fine showing made gave color
To the opinion expressed by the coaches
that the eleven was ut for the fray.
The feeling here in favor of a Yale
victory has grown daily.
The sentiment of the coaches as
given out is not at all optimistic. They
will not say that Yale is a sure loser,
but intimate as much. Others com
petent to Judge do not hold the same
impression, and betting hereabouts Is
Influenced by the pessimism OF the
teams handlers.

STRAIGHT FOOTBALL TALK

Bemus Pierce Is authority for the state
ment that the Indians would rather de-
feat a big Western eleven than perhaps

If Mayhem, the Brown halfback. keeps
M his present pace Walter Camp and
other makers OF All-America elevens Will
he forced 10 write his name down in their
notebooks for future consideration. The
competition for that honor. however,
grows keener as the big games occur and
recur.
Manager E,lrod Is doing very well at end
on the Brown eleven. In fact, observers
of the Yale game say harshly enough that
he is doing much better at end than he
did at the head of the business affairs OF
the football association At any rate,
Brown needs him more on the team than
ID does on the account books.

certain themselves whether Daub. Phil

this position, but Daub looks to be the
man.
