TT Princeton defeats Yale, and
Yale defeats Harvard, the team
that conquered Princeton, how
much are we bid for the football
championship title of 1912?
The Tiger has a chance to trim
the Bulldog, and the canine is ever
liable to bite his address in the
Crimson blankets. Thus we relapse
into a high fever of uncertainty
until the Yale Princeton encounter
is over.
Harvard should give Yale one Of
those close decision trimmings
when the teams meet at New Ha-
ven a week from Saturday in the
biggest event of the football season.
Harvard should win if the showings
of the two teams to date can be
taken as the basis of argument.
But Harvard always has to contend
with a strong New Haven preju-
dice against anything or anybody
from Cambridge doing anything or
anybody in the city which Mr..
Charles S. Mellen kindly included
on his right of way.
The Blue eleven is classed as an
enigma, which Is so serious an af-
Fiction as it is in the dictionary,
and it will take the Princeton game
to develop all the films of weakness,
as well as strength. Even then the
Harvard eleven will still be handi-
capped when it faces the Bulldog
by the fact that it comes from Har-
ward, which is a very grave offense
in the eyes Of Yale.
While the youthful square toed
Charley Brickley kicked a hole in
the door of football fame large
enough to admit the entire town of

find that it was the No. IA boot of
another young man in that Har-
ward Princeton game which really
loosened the panels. We refer to

speck of hostile feeling, between
the two colleges
There isn't any need to go into
the matter of the feeling between
Georgia and Tech.
1t may not be amiss to suggest,
however, that the athletic and col
legiate authorities of the two col
leges use their powers to preserve
the fine spirit that was shown last
spring at the baseball games. The
students of Tech and Georgia are
gentlemen and representative of
the best families of Georgia and
other Southern states. 1t only needs
a suggestion to that effect from
the college authorities to overcome
the natural ebolutions of youth that
now and again bubble over into

Boys High School and G. NJ. A. will
line up this afternoon at Ponce De-
Leon in what will no doubt prove a
good game. The last time these elev-
ems met G. NJ. A. was returned victor
in a close game, but the High School
is out for revenge this time and will
fight the harder.
The High School will probably line
up as follows:
LeConte left end; Fraser, left tackle;
Starr, left guard; Gam, center: Mayo.
right guard DAILY, right tackle; Jen-
kins, right end; Reynolds, guard; Knox.
left half back; Fox (captain), full back.
