play last night. apparently fearing
to take a chance. Hueston played
with confidence.
When Hueston was within four
points of winning De Orc forfeited,
and thus forced his rival to do
likewise, delaying for a short time

Yale and Harvard will undoubtedly have
great game in Connecticut Saturday,
and if the Crimson team pulls out a vic
tory it will have passed through the
most successful season Harvard team
has had for many long year.
Triple passes, one of them a forward
pass, are popular in the west. 1t was
one of these that gave Chicago its ty-
ing touchdown against Cornell in the
last four minutes of the game.
The Villanova team counts on giving the
Army all the latter can do to win next
Saturday, Notwithstanding the Villanovans
were beaten 30 to 6 by the Navy. The
Villanova men think they would have done
better against the Navy If it hadn't been
such a long time between games. The
game with the Navy was on November 4,
and that was Villanova's first contest
since October IA. a period of three weeks
and half. Villanova's game against the
Army will be watched with interest as
giving a line on the Army and Navy.
Reports say that both Harvard and
Pennsylvania have their ''best team in
years" That probably Is true, and it is
too bad they can't get together and de-
eide which Is the stronger, no matter how
coming games result. 1t looks as If the
burden of proof were. on Harvard, for
although Harvard Walloped Pennsylvania
six straight times from 1898 to 1903 in
elusive, Pennsylvania turned the tables
the next two times, and each time when
Harvard was confident of winning. Then
came the split. No team ever fought
harder or with more uncOnquerable deter
mination than did the Quaker teams of
1904 and 1905 against Harvard. The pres
ent eleven is speedier, more versatile and
more polished than either of the other
two were, but surely did not have any
thing on them in sand.

One writer says the Michigan students

fame, and that there is sentiment in
favor of resuming athletic relations with
the other western institutions. 1t is a

like to see it once more affiliated with

sylvania three years in succession. In the
days when the Yost men were gaining
their great renown on the gridiron they
confined their games to western rivals.
The % to drubbing handed to Michigan
by Pennsylvania is the hardest the former
team ever has had to take.

Fierce Scrimmages for Yale.

NEW HAVEN, November 19.-In it's
first hard practice of the week yesterday
afternoon the Yale varsity eleven was
put through two fierce scrimmages, the
first against the freshmen eleven, which
has not yet broken training, and the sec
ond against the scrub eleven, which
breaks training tonight.
The varsity was able to score once
against each of these teams. Field took
the ball over the line against the scrub
team and Philbin made a plunge through
center against the freshmen. which re-
suited in a touchdown.
The features of the scrimmages were
quarterback run by Pop Corey, gaining
20 yards, and the successful use of the
forward pass by the varsity men, this
being responsible for many of the gains.
In the signal practice, which preceded
the scrmmage and which was in secret,
the lineup was:
Logan. left end; Hobbs. left tackle; An
drus. left guard; Biddie. center; Goebel,
right guard; Brides, right tackle; Burch,
right end; Corey. quarterback; Philbin
left halfback; Wheaton, right halfback;
Coy, fullback.
This is probably the way the team will
line up against Harvard Saturday. In
the scrimmages Field took Coys place at
fullback and the hero of last Saturday S
contest was allowed to rest.

the varsity and seemed to be in good
form He will be the first substitute end
in soon after the game starts. He is the
