when Yale, Harvard, Princeton. Dart
mouth, Brown, West Point. Annapolis
and Cornell play their first games of
the season.
Coaches refuse to accept the defeat
OF Pennsylvania by Irsinus Saturday
a. indicating that the the 1910 rules
have weakened the game or placed
an undue premium on the lighter
teams. They say that Pennsylvania
defeat was merely one OF the for
tunes Of the game, such as turned
UP now and then under the old rules.
From the camps of all the big
teams, however. come reports to-day
that the coaches are 'aeropianing"
slightly and are looking with misgiy-
ings on the outcome OF their first
games.
Saturdays games proved one thing
corsclusively; the new game win be
more open than the old. which 1t is
believed will make 1t much more in
Icrasting from spectators stand

greater chance for unexpected ana
