FALL SPORTS.
Thanksgiving Weeks Programme of
Football. Golf and Cross Country.


NEW YORK, Nov. 25.-Thanksglv-
Ing week practically closes the pro-
gramme Of outdoor sports for the eur
rent year, and as usual Mt this period
the next seven days Will bring de-
cislons In number OF events Of UNI
usual athletic interest. There are still
two big football games to be played,
and both will take place on Franklin
field, Philadelphia. The first, between
Cornell and Pennsylvania, is down for
Thanksgiving day and the second, the
annual meeting Of the army and navy,
for Saturday. Besides these two
games there will be golf tournament
at Lakewood. the intercollegiate cross
country championship at Princeton
and the amateur squash championship
at Tuxedo.
Naturally chief interest centers In
the two remaining big football games.
Both promise to be stubbornly fought
contests, as both Cornell and Penn
sylvania have shown decided improve
ment since their defeats by the Penn
sylcania State eleven and the Carlisle
Indians respectively. Close students
Of the game are predicting success for
the Comedians.
The game on Saturday between the
army and navy will be the big social
affair it always has proved TO be here
tofOre, and the large attendance Of
government officials lends something
more than athletic interest to the con-
test. On form the West Pointers seem
to have an advantage over the mid
dies in the line and better running
back field, but In kicking the Annapo-
lis men are the peers Of the soldiers.
It will be hard fight all through.
Eight Of the big eastern colleges will
send teams to Princeton on Wednes-
day to try for the intercollegiate cross
country championship. They are Cor
nell. Columbia, Harvard. Massachu-
sets Institute Of Technology, Pennsyl-
vania, Princeton, Syracuse and Yale.
The annual golf championship at
Lakewood on Thursday will attract
nearly all Of the best players OF the
country, with Jerome ID. Travers,
whose wonderful play this season has
put him In class by himself, standing
out as the probable winner.
