The character OF the foot bail schedule
changes materially today 1t finds sew
eral of the toplners face TO face with
games that mean not question of the
size of the score, but of victory OF defeat.
Harvard. Yale and Pennsylvania have
their work cut out for them, their games
with Annapolis, West Point and Brown
respectively being the big events on the
card PrinCeton's opponent is Washing
ton and Jefferson. which team held the
Tigers to a 6-to-0 score last year. but
whose strength this year is an unknown
quantity. There is nothing to indicate
that this game will be anything like as
tight fit as last years for the Jersey
men. Cornell gets in Pennsylvania State

Surprises Possible.
1t is an even chance that some one of
the upper five meets with defeat today. !
! his chance would not exist were those
five in their final season form, for any of
the topnotchers has more latent strength
than the teams to be encountered but
they are not in top form and the teams
they VIII meet are strong and smart
enough 10 take every advantage of exist
ING mcompIeteness. Perhaps an exception
should be made in the case of Brown in
rating all of today's big five opponents as
below their adversaries in potential
strength. Brown has as big and heavy
material as any team and share of sea
soned material, and is going against the
big teams with the expectation of win
ning-at least actuated by motives more
than mere holding the other side down
In point of class the Pennsylvania
Brown contest is the best item on the
card The Brunonians may rest assured
OF one thing, and that is the hardder they
play the harder the Quakers will play.
There's no gain-saying that spirit of the
pennsylvania men; they may have swelled
heads and may be ragged, but If they
don't brace up some way for a hard game
they Will not be living up TO tradition. If
there are swelled heads ii is good thing
they are meeting Brown today. Two
doses OF Brown extract ten minutes apart
is said TO be a fine remedy for enlarge
ment of the Caput.
Johnny Mayhem, the All-American star
and regarded as the best man in the east
in a broken field, is one player in particu-
lar the Quakers will keep their eye on
and in order to prevent him from get
ting loose stop him before he gets started
1t will be sharp work for the Quaker
ends 10 keep him in check, but they are
nifty pair. Conkl.n Will play his first
game at guard for Brown. There are
some capable performers in the Brown
lire. namely Pryor, Hazard. Kirley and
Conklin. men who are about as good as
those they will face. but back of the line
the Pennsylvania eleven is better equipped
III all around strength. Browns chances
depend a good deal on It's ability to cope
with the open tactics of the Quakers.
Brown has no good punter. Pennsylvania
has no punter who is great at distance,
but the Quakers manipulate the onsiGe
