Hero of Princeton Game Like
Iy to Fill That Position
Against Harvard. =
FRED DAILY CHEERS YALE
Says Signs Point to Victory for
BIue-Houghton Prophesies
Harvard Will Win.

Yale coaches still appear to be wor-
ried over the fullback position for Sat
urday's game against Harvard.
Guernsey was tried out at that stand
yesterday, replacing Dunn. One OF
his feats, following the scrimmage,
was to kick a goal from the forty
yard line.
Coach Percy Haughton, of Harvard.
contrary to his usual custom, predict
ed a victory for the Crimson In Satur-
days game. Yale students were in
high spirits and speech-malSing at a
mas5-meeting last night aroused the
keenest enthusiasm. Fred Daily, cap
tain of the 1910 team, said: I'VE beat
Princeton and tied Harvard In 1910.
In 1918 we tied Princeton and we will
beat Harvard"
Guersney Again Gets In Limelight.
There was a change in the varsity
lineup in the afternoons drill at Yale,
but Captain Ketcham would not say
that 1t would be permanent Guern-
5ey took Dunn's place at fullback and
played there throughout the scrim-
mage. Dunn's knee was hurt In the
game against Princeton Saturday, but
he Is able to be around and his walk
ing does not show that he Is troubled
by the knee.
Knowles did the punting and when
there was an opportunity for a field
goal just before the scrimmage was
over Guernsey dropped back to the
forty-yard line and kicked beauty.
Percy Haughton, head coach of the
Harvard football team, made his first
prediction of the year at a mass
meeting attended by three thousand
Harvard students In the Union. when
he said that this seasons eleven would
defeat Yale and accomplish what a
Harvard team has never done BEFORE
won from Yale two years in success
sion. The undergraduates cheered Mr..
Haughton for six minutes when he
started to speak. and they cheered
him till he rode away In his automo-
bile after his short talk.
Harvard Is ready to go into its Yale
| game Saturday. Only signal drill be-
ing on the schedule today and tomorI
row. Yesterday. while there was no
real scrimmage. the men again had
their usual two hours work. This
comprised signal drill on the Grim
sons entire repertory OF plays. and q
against the second team, which was
commanded by Reggie Brown.
Cornell Hopes for the Best.
The Cornell football team had no
trouble in smashing up Pennsyf-
vania's plays yesterday afternoon,
only the Penn plays were not the real
thing. The scrubs did the best they
| could to give life sized imitation OF
what Cornell may expect from the
Quakers, but none of the varsity team
was fatuous enough to believe that
what he experienced bore anything
| N alt0hfaof hin
to what will be forthcoming on
Thanksgiving Day. However. the
varsity did a lot of good defensive
work yesterday afternoon and at least
got familiar with the formations which
the Quakers have used so far this
year.
Realizing that only the hardest kind
of work and plenty OF coaching is the
only way to round the Penn eleven
into It's best form for the Cornell game
on Thanksgiving Day, Head Coach
| Brooke, assisted by the regular coach'-
| ing staff plus host of former Red
| and Blue football stars, sent the var
sity team through another gruelling
workout on Franklin Field yesterday
afternoon. Pitted against the scrubs
| in O. forty-flve- minute sscrimmage, the
regulars had the better OF the after
noon's engagement by two touchdowna
| to none.
Cadets Cheer Team In Practise.
Urged on by their six hundred fel-
low cadets assembled in the stands
who hurled defiance to the Navy in
songs and yelIs, the Army continued
their secret work yesterday in prepar-
alton for the game with the MiddiesI
in New York November 20. The plays
that will be used against Springfield
on Saturday were also rehearsed In q
orty-five-minute scrimmage with the
scrubs with good effect. Captain
Hoge and Millburn each scored touchp-
downs. Hoge was the only one of the
regular back field men In the rough
work yesterday.
! Vim and dash marked the practise
of the midshipmen yesterday after
noon and the coaches drove the team
at q fast clip during a lengthy lineup
against the scrubs. Players were re.
placed as soon as they lost their fresh-
ness, so that the pace was not lowered
for O. minute. Nichols and Mitchell
had their filings at quarterback, both
running the team well. Leonard, the
fast little halfback, was back In the
game, and others used behind the linz
during the afternoon were Failing,
