Washington Player Depend
ed Upon to Score on
Yale Today.
RECORD ATTENDANCE

Blue Eleven Seems Stronger on
Ends and in the Back
field.

NEW HAVEN. Conn, Nov. IA
Slightly battered but stu very much
IN the ring the Princeton Tiger dashed
his tail nervously during the early hours
OF today IN anticipation Of what prom
ises 70 be an exceptionally interesting
mix-up with the Yale bull dog this af-
ternoon.
Weather that was made 70 order for
the spectators and the outlook for a
contest OF twenty-five karat worth drew
a banner crowd Of football fans TO New
Haven today. for the annual set-to be-
tween Yale and Princeton.
Sleeping room on a billiard table com
ynsnded a banner price in any hotel IN
New Haven last night. and before dawn
this morning the forerunners of an I'M
broken caravan of autos ehugged their
way into the little city for which today
is the most important twenty-four hours
on the years calendar. It is expected
that when the referees whistle sends the
rival elevens charging at each other on

$500 devotees Of the game VIII be on
hand "whooplng it up" for the sons OF
Eli Yale and old Nassau.
Yale Is Favorite.
Through a pair Of Yale eyes this af-
ternoOn's contest looks like a walk
away for the hackers of the bull dog.
and so confident are the rooters for the
Blue that during the early hours today
plenty Of 3 to 1 money was to be had
with the Tigers on the short end. Elk
pert football dopesters contend that only
college patriotism should justify such
odds as these, and the early Prince
tonians gobbled up the reckless money,
and by the time the teams trot on the
field il IS expected the betting VIII be
in the neighborhood OF ? TO J.
Quite a lot Of money was placed today
at even betting that PRINCETON would
not score. and the boys from Jungle
town, with a wonderful admiration for
cunningham punung abilities, were
forcing the betting on this issue.
Coy VIII Start.
Ted Coy, Ya1e's famous plunging

Yale camp this morning. This fact
alone served TO set Wild the Yale men.

Yale team might be out Of the running
on account Of a bad knee. Yale win
enter the game with practically the
same team which has started her last
two important contests Just what the
Princeton lineup viii be Is something
Of a mystery. But It Is generally be-
iieved that Cunningham viii be IN the

coin on a Tiger score. From tackle 10

George Washington players and root
ers are more O. less disappointed today
following their defeat at the hands of
the Virginia oPly Tech eleven at Ma
tiOnal Park yesterday by II to s.
Until the close of the first half of
the game the local eolIegians held high
est hopes Of repeating their victory over
V. P. I. at Blacksburg last season.
After that session these hopes went
a-glimmering. and although G. ". u.

met its master.
Two features we're directly response
bic for George Washington loss. One
the punting of Z. Hodgson for the Wis
itors, and the other the fumbles by the
George Washington backfieid men.
While the visitors are a rugged lot
and play football from the word go. 1t
must be said that they were particu-
larry lucky IN securing two OF their
touehdowns Both times the ball was
recovered on a tumble somewhere with
in the 25-yard line. and using their
hard-plung1ng backs at smashing the
line the visitors could not be stopped
on either occasion.
Outpoints Morse.
Morse, while a punter of fair ability,
was made TO look scholastic-like by the
long, twisting boots Of Hodgson. who
kicks for V p. I. At attempting TO
duel with Hodgson at the kicking game,
Morse erred seriously. On one occasion
only was the George Washington quar-
terback able TO gain an advantage at
punting, and then the sIowness of his
ends in getting down the field allowed
the runner to make up most Of the lost
ground. At this game the visitors had
the locals backed off the boards. Their
ends were always within tackling dis
lance of the runner wien he received
the pigskin. and seldom failed to drop
him when they Owed
Fritz Crafts broke the monotony OF
the game near the close of the second
half by pulling of one of his famous
runs for more than half the distance Of

worthy deed and lent new interest to
the proceeding.
But Few Features.

YOUNG ATHLETES
GETTING In SHAPE

At a meeting of the High School
Athletic Association Friday Harry
Antics, one of the most popular boys
in school and a member of last years
foot ball team, was elected captain
of the '09 base ball squad to succeed
Lloyd Ramey. who resigned a short
time ago. The boys are holding
practice games nearly every evening
at the stock yards grounds between
the different classes in the school.
The squad this year is large and
very enthusiastic, though it has lost
much of the good material il had last
year. The heaviest loss to the team
this year will be felt in the absence
of Guy Steele, senior of last year
now attending a dental school in
Kansas City, and Clyde Hardenbrook,
one of the classiest players that ever
donned a Grand Junction high school
uniform.
At a meeting of the junior class
Earle McSherry was elected to the
captaincy of the track team of that
class for this year. McSherry is one
of the best athletes in that class and
held the position of sophomore class
captain last year.
Captain LeClere announced that
the boys would report for track work
tonight, but he later countermanded
this order on account of the cold and
damp spell of weather which struck
this community a short time ago. 1t
would be dangerous to the health of
the boys to appear out of doors in the
light attire of the track and field ath-
lete.
The eighth grade boys. under the
supervision of Prof. McElroy of the
manual training department, have
been busy the past few days con-
structing some durable hurdles, and
in so doing have merited the thanks
of the high school. AS long as the
bad weather prevails the boys will
devote their time to preparing the
apparatus.
