running mate one Of the greatest lin'
| plungers in the country, Wendell
| Against Princeton Brickley was at 6
disadvantage, because he was watched
| for steady gains through the line anl
booted three goals. With the aid of as
brilliant a plunging back as Wendell II
appears that he will be about twice as
hard to stop.
1t is not an easy matter to break up
drop kick before 1t is gotten away and
Judging by what the Princeton-Y ale game
showed. the Harvard coaches will also
have to do some thinking along that line
TWO drop kicks were registered by the
Dark Blue, only one less than was made
by Harvard against the Tigers. Al
though Harvard had the margin, in that
It scored touchdown, it is likely that
It's attack had reached more mature de-
velOpment than had that of Yale
IT begins to look as though Harvard
shouio win Saturday by a fair margin,
and odds are being offered that it will do
so. 1t must be remembered, though, that
Harvard has gone against Yale as high
as 2-to-1 favorite and yet has failed
to secure victory. That bulldog grit and
courage at Yale is not an easy thing to
overcome.
This lad Ochsenreiter, who is playing
halfback for Tech. is going to develop
into mighty capable little player before
he is through with high school foot ball
This is his first year in the game, and he
has shown that he has the ability to ac-
complish much on scholastic gridirons if
he sticks to his work as faithfully as this
season. Against Central he did some very
creditable playing on the offense and de-
fense, and his ability as drop kicker
will stand him in great stead.
The Tech-Eastern game yesterday was,
according to report, we'll played on the
defense, but the offensive work was of a
poor caliber. Eastern was unable to gain
against the heavier Tech forwards and
the work Of the Manual Trainers, while
they had the ball. was not up to the
standard. Tech gained a lot more ground
than did Eastern, which was able to reg
lister but one first down, but 1t could
never muster the reserve force necessary
to get the ball across.
While the game was won by the bare
margin OF goal kicked, it is remarkable
scoring by the same method. One of Co
hills attempts barely missed the bar by
six inches or so.
Two games yet remain to be played in
the high school series. Central will meet
Western Friday and Technical and Busi-
ness will end the season next Tuesday.
1t is almost useless for Central and
Western to play. The Red and White
has not the least chance to finish in
front. and the chances are that it will
lose by wide margin. Technical and
Business will play hard game, because
Business would like to beat the Manual
Trainers probably as much SO as It would
any other eleven in the SERIES That
game should be worth seeing.
The selection Of an all-high eleven this
year is going to be an extremely difflcult
task because there are few real stars
among the schools this. season. There
are several men playing in the backfeld
on the several teams who are about the
same caliber, and when the time comes to
pick the best somebody is going to be up
against an almost impossible situation.
George Lamb, a former Nebraskan
man, who saw the game between Prince
ton and Yale last week, says that
Bomeisler. the Yale end, is one Of the
most wonderful performers he has ever
watched on gridiron. Lamb says that
he has seen nearly all the stars who have
been developed in the west and east,
but that he has never watched a man
perform at an end position. who was more
capable than the Yale player. It was
Lambs opinion that Bomeisler, II placed
on team in this section, would be able
to play nearly the whole game himself.
