Look Upon Dartmouth as Most
Formidable Foe of
Season.
MAY NUMBER PLAYERS

waded into heavy practise yester-
day afternoon, In anticipation of the
Dartmouth Indian game at New York
on Saturday. looked upon as likely to
be Carlisle's greatest game Of g
decade IL, as Dartmouth says, she
estimates the Redskins highly, the
sentiment is reciprocated, as Coach
Warner and his scouts who have seen
the big Green Mountain giants play,
think that Carlisle will have to per-
form miracles this week IL victory
is accomplished. AS indicated by yes
terday's practise, strategy will be
matched against strategy in the Polo
grounds game.
The Dartmouth players in Satur-
days game with Carlisle, In New
York, will be distinguished by num-
bers. Announcement to this erect
was made by Coach Cavanaugh, OF
the Dartmouth team, and II Is hoped
that Coach Warner, of Carlisle, will
follow suit. so that the scheme. which
has seemed to have such general
popular approval, may be given the
best possible trial. The numbers will
be large and of white cloth. easily
seen from any part OF the field. They
will be sewed on the back OF the
players jerseys and corresponding
numbers will be opposite the names
in the programs.
Silver loving cups have been do
mated as trophies for the two big
home games of the University of
Pittsburgh football team. One Is for
the battle with Washington and JEFF
ferson and the other for the Penn
state combat The conditions OF gift
in each case are that the winner shall
keep the cup for one year. and 1t
shall remain in competition until one
institution wins it three times.

Points against the Tigers this year
have been made in alternate games,
as follows: 3, 0, 6, 0, 8, 0, 3, and II this
arrangement is maintained to the

be Princeton -, Yale 0. And, by the
way, Rutgers made as many points
against Princeton rs Harvard did.

The controversy with the Univer-
sity of Kansas over the playing of
Clinton Ross, the Nebraska negro
GUARD, in the Nebraska Kansas foot
ball game November is is closed, so
far as Nebraska is concerned.
special meeting OF the athletic board
was held at which resolution was

The Army and Navy officials have
notified Secretary Foster that the gov
eminent institutions will exercise thelr
option on all the available seats for
the Army Navy game here November
30. These will levy such demand on
the New York club as to leave only
approximately 400 seats for local sales.
The New York club yesterday re-
turned a large sum of money to appli-
cants who had sent in their orders on
the condition that the Army and Navy
would not exercise their cntion on all
additional tickets. The office has been
swamped with applications and the
tickets are going to be much ecarcer
than was at first supposed.

eighth year at Indiana and i'm that
time he has had much success with
the teams. This year, however, lndi-
