GAMES INVOLVING TITLES
OCCUR TODAY IN WEST

Chicago, Nov. 1.-THE middle west
football season Of 1913 win reach it's
climax tomorrow in three big battles
in which representative eleyens Of
the central states have staked their
ambitions for the year. Chicago and
Minnesota win contend for the con-
ference championship. Nebraska and
Kansas will struggle to survive in the
race for Missouri valley honors, and
Michigan viii fight against Pennsylz
vania TO maintain the hitherto un-
broken record Of supremacy Of the
west for the season.
Summed up, the Maroons may be
said to have a slight advantage in
kicking, in interference and in the
secondary line Of defense, while Min
nesota Is ahead in beef in driving
power, and in the superiority of her
ends.
Nebraskas defeat Of Minnesota,
carly in the season, is regarded as no
fluke west Of the Missouri but a
feeling bordering on confidence is
apparent in the Lawrence camp
Utter rOut mas beeH lHt ldte "t
the eastern teams in western terri
tory this year, and team rooters, even
the most conservative, believe the
Wolverines will have at least fight
ing chance to down the Quakers and
keep the record clean.
Wisconsin is an idle member OF the
''big nine" tomorrow Iowa has a
game with Ames that is expected to
settle the state championship. North
Westerns hopes for beating Indiana
are offset by recent advices which in
dicate shift in lineup has brought
ehcouragement to the Hoosiers. llli-
nois and Perdue are to meet in a
bitter struggle
An interesting contest is likely be-
tween South Dakota and the Michi-
gan Aggies, for the former, It Is said,
will send its strongest team against
the Lansing eleven. Missouri should
have little trouble in disposing Of
Washington university.
other games tomorrow are: Case
VS.. Ohio State, at Columbus: ST.
Louis VS. Marquette, at Milwaukee;
Beloit VS. Knox, at Galesburg.

New York, Nov. 14.-Footbali
games which will have q decided
hearing on the final ranking Of east
ern college elevens for the season of
1913 form the feature contests OF
tomorrow in the gridlron world along
the Atlantic coast The battles also
will sound taps for several teams.
This is practically true of both
Princeton and Dartmouth, which
close their schedules with games
against Yale and the Carlisle Indians
respectively. While the Yale Prince
ton game takes precedence over the
Dartmouth-Ca Carlisle contest, there IS
no denying that from a sectional
championship standpoint the latter
encounter is the more important.
All roads lead to New Haven to-
night, for the clans are gathering to
witness the final big gridiron en-
counter to be staged on Yale field.
It falls to tho lot Of Princeton TO be
old ELS guest in the ceremonies that
will mark the passing Of this famous
football arena, and it appears as
though the Tigers were IN for q siren
uous round of festivities, since The
Elfs are determined to close the
fields history with a victory, II pos
sible.
While Princeton and Yale are
graphing at New Haven, Dartmouth
and Carlisle will be engaged at the
Polo grounds in this city This game
is expected to be one of the most
spectacular Of the season if played on
a dry field, as seemed probable to-
night The two teams are composed
OF fast spriRting. powerful charging
llnesmen and backfield players and
appear to -bo so evenly matched In
general all-around play that predic-
tions regarding the outcome are but
mere guesses.
Harvard is not called upon TO meet
q particularly formidable foe in
Brown, and for that reason the lead
ing Crimson coaches and several of
the star players will attend the Yale
Princeton game in order TO secure a
further line on the ability Of the
Blue, which must be met week
hence at Cambridge
one eastern team invades the west
for the final sectional contest OF the
season, when Pennsylvania faces
Michigan at Ann Arbor.
Other games tomorrow which
promise to develop football of an in
teresting character include:
Lafayette and Cornell, at Ithaca;
Colgate and Syracuse, at Syracuse;
Williams and Amherst, at Williams
town. The Army has villa Nova as
its opponent while the Navy will
line up against Pennsylvania State
at Annapolis.

soddtng OF the diamond. AS soon as pos

allowed TO pack and settle until the
league season starts. The team will use

ment VIII give the grass a chance to de-
velop and by the time the years real
work begins there will be q diamond
worthy the name.
The iniield at the park has always been
n source OF trouble In addition TO the
pebbles that constantly worked I'D
through the soil. the ground was of such
a character that holes developed quickly
and altogether indelders had a trying
time OF 1t. Not infrequently ielders were
injured because of a crazy bound of the
ball The sodded infield should give the
much-needed relief In this respect
