the harmful contact with Carlisle or
Dartmouth or Colgate. of any OF the
others. might seriously prejudice the

Anyway, Harvard will probably pc
deeply engrossed in the occupation OF
defeating Yale, If 1t is to be done,
Yale being that place where football
is played, as fans are credibly in
formed not for the newspapers, but
for the university, and where the
players strive for the uplift OF the
college rather than for public recog-
milton
Thev know this is so, because Yale
has not given out the name Of the
man who muffed the forward pass
that would have handed Yale touch
down over Princeton, and as no one
has said anything about the matter It
proves Cap Ketcham's declaration that
the players do not strive for public
recognition
Various parties have been nomi-
mated in an offhand way, there being
at least three or four in the running,
but it does not matter now.
Harvard viii have tough time next
Saturday before Charley BriekleY
boots a few field goals. And even
then this young Otis Guernsey must
be given thoughtful consideration

Like Brickley. this young OTIS
Guernsey is liable to emit q field goal
at any moment, and he has the no
small advantage over Brickley in that
he has kicked so few field goals that
he is intensely anxious to kick a lot
more Brickley, on the other hand
or perhaps. one should say the other
foot-has been in there booting until
he has doubtless grown somewhat
weary Of the pastime.
Then there is Alec Wilson, Of Yale,
with his disconcerting practice OF
leaking through the line at unexpected
moments. Experts advise Harvard TO
beware of Alec at the time he takes
a football in hand to dash off a few
yards of territory.
It's the way that Yale came on from
behind in the general football fight
that made the result so spectacular
and so popular with the sporting pub
lie, begging Caps pardon for again
dragging in the public where it has
no business. It proved that the Yale
spirit still lives, and that it is the
greatest fighting spirit in the world
when it comes to the football field.

Now that Michigan has beaten

Showing New York.
Some of the New York fight critics,
who have given much space to
scientific panning of champion Richie
in the past, are now willing to admit
that Willie is the greatest title hold
er since Joe Cans was IN his prime.
This is a pretty broad statement, yet
the accounts of the Cross Ritchie bat
tie published IN New York newspapers
indicate that it rings with truth.
Richie has evidently won a home IN
New York by his excellent showing
against the dentist lightweight He
appears to be able to box or fight
his own game The champions next
engagement is with Tommy Murphy,
the veteran New York lightweight,
who has been bidding for a crack at
the title for several years, but was
avoided by Nelson and WOlgast. They
are scheduled to meet in San Fran

Murphy is dangerous against even

The biggest change is IN the welter-
