all goals from touchdown should be
kicked from point Immediately In

ters too strongly In Western football.
They violate every rule n football
for the sake of gaining something
by some freak of chance. This Is all
right in emergency, / think, but for
general policy it is very bad. Eastern
football may be trifle too conserva-

in honor of Harvard's championship
eleven The Crimson head coach
pointed out in pictures thrown on to
a screen seven "glaring mistakes"
which, he said. were made by the

football in this years Yale game,
except for one off-side play, Coach
Haughton said. He made no refer

The Harvard football schedule, as
tentatively announced, has been al

Clever Orange Heavy Will
Tackle Western Scrapper
Christmas Afternoon.
TO FIGHT AT CATCHWEIGHTS

Charley Weinert, of Orange. Percy
Woodruff's protege, who caused a SEN
sation a few weeks ago by administer
ing a decisive beating to Battling
Levinsky, the New York heavy
weight. has been matched to box Bob
McAllister, the Western "hope," at
the Atlantic Garden A. c., New York,
on Christmas afternoon.
The men are to box at catch
weights, but it is not expected that
Weinert will have to concede much
weight to the husky Westerner at
that. AS Percy Woodruff always
keeps Weinert in fighting trim,
whether mill is pending or not, the
Orange boy can be expected to give
good account of himself.
