mo DOPE out who viii be tn


1O DOPE out who VIII be the
champion Of eastern football is
about the hardest job that could
be taken UP. Dope has been upset in
nearly every game this year and as
the teams stand at the present the
championship could be given TO half
dozen teams without missing the mark
very far.
The championship at the end Of the
season viii probably stand between
Yale, Harvard and Princeton, as is the
usual custom in the east, but at the
present time which Of the Big Three 1t
viii be is an uncertainty. Yale has
been defeated once this season and that
was by West Point. Harvard has been
defeated by Princeton, and Princeton
IS the only team that hasn't been de-
feated, although its Navy game ended
in a tie score. Princeton seems to have
the little advantage as the teams stand
now, as IL has a record OF being I'M
beaten and having had only six points
scored against it. while Harvard has
eight and Yale nine.
The Championship can still go to any
OF the three teams, but win have to
be decided by the games which are still
70 be played princeton, TO take the
title, must defeat Yale and Dartmouth
in the two remaining games. Harvard,
In order to take the hOnOrs, must win
from Yale, Dartmouth and Carlisle, and
Yale must defeat Brown, Harvard and
Princeton to get the eastern cham
piOnship.
There was one time when Connie
Mack, the manager of the worlds
champions, made a mistake. That was
when he didn't hang on TO Joe Jackson. .
With the Maps this year, Jackson hit
for .408 and played in more games than
did Ty Cobb, participating in 147. I
games.

The Wisconsin championship air cas-

jury Charlie Pollock received last sat

on mostly TO pull the Wisconsin team
through in its game WITH Minnesota IN
the final game for the conference LlIles
but his broken leg keeps him out OF
football for the remainder Of the year,
and his successor cannot compare with
him for ability in the football lie.
