YALE COACHES TRY GUERNSEY
OUT AT FULLBACK POSITION
FOURTEEN MIDD|ES
MAKE TOUCHDOWNS
Navy Does Not Depend on In
dividual Efforts to Get
Points.
TIGERS ALSO VERSATILE

TIGERS ALSO VERSATILE
Students or football detail have
distilled from the array of scores
thus far this season that the naval
cadets have more touchdown makers
than any other team in q group of
seven large eastern colleges. In ad-
dition to the Navy the comparison
takes In the Harvard, Yale, Prince
ton. Pennsylvania, Dartmouth and
Army teams.
Fourteen different midshipmen are
shown to have scored by the touch
down process. McReavy being the
leader with ten to his individual
credit. Harvard has had ten differ
ent men cross tho line with the ball
In their hands. Princeton twelve. Yalc
eleven, Pennsylvania eight, Dart
mouth twelve and the Army eleven.
The principal goal lickers from
touchdown are Storer. Harvard, with
thirt en-: H. Baker. Princeton, thir-
teen; Ketcham, Yale, nine: Marshall,
Penn, seventeen: Hogsett, Dart
mouth, fourteen; McEwan, Army,
eleven; Brown, Navy. and Leonard,
Navy, six each. These converters In
clude a tackle. two guards, q centre,
an end and three backs. The con-
vertlng detail had been distributed
literally at both the Army and Navy,
seven men having attended to 1t at
West Point and like number at
Annapolis. Brlckley leads Harvard
In touchdowns, with seven; STREET.
leads Princeton, with eleven; Wilson
leads Yale, with four; Hogsett and
Llewellyn lead Dartmouth, with FIVE
each; Hobbs, the Army, with eight,
and McReavy, the Navy, with ten.
Inasmuch as Hogsett and Loudon,
the ends. have accounted for nine
touchdowns between them, it looks
as If Dartmouth has made better use
of the forward pass to get over the
line than any of the rest. The play
ers who have made touchdowns,
kicked goals from them and also
kicked goals from the field are. H.
Baker, Marshall Hogsett, Benedict
and Leonard. Brickley, with six, has
made the most drop kicks, and
Brown, with four, has kicked most
goals from placement.

Indiana will go the advocates of
numbering football players lone bet
ter" against Purdue. Instead Of num-
bering the players during the game
a number of men, from both Purdue
and Indiana, will be stationed along
the side lines and will announce the
plays and the men who carry the
ball to the spectators. The plan was
suggested by Professor G. J. Sam
bower, Indiana's representative in the
conference, and It Is believed 1t will
stop the clamor of football fans for
the numbering of players and at the
same time meet the objections of the
coaches, who oppose the number plan.
