Outlook In the West.


The fight for the football champfon-
ship of the middle west is closer than
ever this season. The Minnesota. Chi
cago and Wisconsin elevens appear to
be evenly matched. The showing of
Minnesota in its games thus far this
season stamps Coach Williams team
as strong aggregation A team that
can run up a score IF 2i to against
Lawrence in twenty and fifteen minute
halves with only five days preparation
must be composed of stellar players IN
and lodging of Captain McGovern have
been the feature of many of the Co
piers games this season.
The Chicago eleven. while not as
powerful as they were last season, Is
out to capture the western conference
championship. but not without a strug-
gle.
Coach Stagg IS one of the closest OBJ
servers of scrimmage work in the west,
and he discerns in an instant the mis-
takes of the various players and recti-
fies them on the spot. He is a stickler
for team play. Right here it may be
stated that in every formation which Is
used by Chicago there IS a particular
function for every player on the team
to perform. and Stage generally sees
that this is done. The work of Captain
Page, who is trying to fill. Walter Stef-
fens' place at quarterback. is being
watched with interest The great little
player was taken from his favorite DO
sition at right end and placed at quar-
ter. Coach Stage dislik, 1 to make this
move. but there was no other candidate
who showed an aptitude for the place.
and Page was forced to play the posi-
ton. On the defense he is being used
as smashing end and defensive full
back.
Chicago has a powerful line in
Badenoch at center, Ehrhorn and
Hirschl as guards and Kelley and Hoff-
man as tackles. In addition to this
quintet of veterans, Gerand, Radema-
cher and Smith of last years freshman
team have all three showed well this
season.
Back of The line Coach Stage has
two good ones in Worthwine and
Crawley. Other candidates for back
and end positions who have shown well
are Menaul, Sauer, Kassulker, Daven-
port, De Both and Samson.

fdent that the Badgers will defeat

and Fitzpatrick have played these posi-
tons most regularly. But Vaughan
and Van Sinderen have been crowding
these two hard, and Naedele has not
yet had an opportunity to do himself
justice.
There is in this squad great material
for these two end places. Haines was
playing a fast game until he was hurt
and was taken behind the line in order
to help out in the punting game.

there are only two men who seem to

Captain Miller at quarterback and

these men are being hard pressed by
substitutes. The work of Hutchinson
against Dickinson was of the sensa-

to be a second Hollenback. His work

ends was almost on a par with the

also picks his openings unusually well.

Princeton Has the Material.


Looking over the record made by the
Princeton eleven to date. one finds it
difficult to enthuse, but the fact re-
mains that the Tigers have the ma
terial and the coaches to turn out a
strong eleven Individually the team Is
very powerful and has fully demon
strated it, but the men do not play to-
gether as it seems they ought to after
almost a months practice.
This is partly caused by the quarter
back problem. Dawson shows good
judgment in running the team and has
lots of life but many times he missed
punts, and when he did get them was
not able to run them back effectively.
The only other available man seems
to be Chrystie, and he is weak in Just
the points in which Dawson is strong,
and vice versa The choice of ends
has settled down to four men-Welch,
Gill. Meigs and King-with the first
two having the call at present. All
these men are good, but that is all that
can be said for them.
The most notable thing about the
rest of the line is the fight that Bam-
man and MacFadyen are having for
the center position. 1t is a contest of
speed against weight, and an enforced
lay-off of MacFadyen Las enabled the
lighter man to get into all the games
so far, where he has shown up ex-
tremely well. One guard position
seems assured to Waller, and Woehr is
now occupying the other regularly, but
buckingham is a strong factor and
does not need to play much better to
supplant the other man. Captain Sieg-
ling and McCrohan, at the tackles,
have been opening big holes and play

frequent that it looks as if it were 60
