COACHES PRAISE
Strong NAVY LINE.
But Warn Ends to Be Careful
of Opponents Forward
Passes.
GOAL LINE UNCROSSED

Praises are being showered on the
clever team Annapolis has turned out
for the season Of 1913. The Navy's
stalwart defense, alone among the
greater powers of the gridiron, has
been able TO cope with the yariegated
attacks of everything that has come
its way. Annapolis. with the season
swiftly drawing to q close, the Nays
goal line has been unmarried by the
cleats Of a rival runner scoring a
touchdown, her goal posts have not
been crossed by the booted pigsiSin
and her record Is Immaculate.
Even though the Navy team has
done great work on the grldiron, the
coaches declare that the ends are
not as perfect as they should be in
breaking up forward passes.
This may be g tip for teams which
still have TO face the Navy eleven,
but on the whole the remarkable
record of the team makes II appear
that the coaches warning should not
be taken with alarm and is Just an
antidote for overconfidence.
Yale has rounded out what will
probably prove its regular line-up
for the rest of the season and 1t will be
employed as an entirely In the Brown
since the defeat by Colgate last week
has given the Eli team a new centre
trio in Way, Cooney and Marting,
places Captain ketcham at right end,
moves Fullback Aleck Wilson to
quarter and instaIls at fulibacS Dave
Dunn, who had the position two sea-
sons ago. while Ainsworth will sue
coed Cornell ct left half. Brown Is
believed to be quite as strong as Col
40 md IaFfargnY
which made such a good showing
against Yale, and Saturdays game
will probably prove whether the Ell
eleven is shaping up for the Prince
ton and Harvard games
AS a football innovation the all
time selections are becoming popu-
lar. and withal, interesting. Coach
Glenn s Warner, of the Carlisle
Indian School, having been asked to
name an all-time Carlisle team, made
the following selections: Ends, Ebert
Exendine, Edward Rodgers; tackles,
Martin Wheelock. Emil Wauseka;
guards, Bemis Pierce. Charles Dillon;
centre, William Carlow; quarterback.
James Johnson; halfbacks, James
Thorpe. Joseph Guyon; fulioack'
Peter Houser.
Betting on the outcome of the big
football games yesterday was almost
at a standstill in New York. The
following odds were quoted: 10 TO y
on Harvard against Yale, 10 to on
the Navy against the Army and 10 TO
6 on Harvard against princeton
princeton will try the innovation
of numbering its players in the Har-
ward game. This has been much
talked of idea. but UP to now none
of the big college teams has VEN
tured TO adopt 1t. Each of the Orange
and Black players will carry a large
number on his back and the key e
the system will be found in the of
f,cial program The Crimson man
lagement, however, has preferred nc
to number the Harvard men.
The Dartmouth team, on long trip
abroad almost every weekend, Wi
leave New Hampshire today, stopping
over in New York for further prac-
tise for the game with Pennsylvania
at Philadelphia on Saturday. Two
hundred students win follow the team
with high enthusiasm, as a victory
over the Quakers Is all that stands
between Dartmouth and a very high
rating for the season.

In the Cornell camp, with an in
Vasion by the Michigan eleven i'm
pending, there is disappointment be-
cause O'Hearn, the strong right end,
has suffered O relapse from injuries
received in the Harvard game and
will not be able to return to Ithaca
for Saturdays contest. The loss is
felt keenly, as the Ithacans were
counting on O'Hearn to carry the
brunt of the defense against the ex-
pected running game of the Michigan
backs Ress has been put in at left
end to fill the vacancy and as whole
the team is said TO be rounding into
better shape thar. was expected.
The Army and Navy teams will
meet Albright and Bucl1nell. respec-
lively ais week. The Army team
suffered defeat at the hands of Notre
Dame last week and Albright may
prove a stronger opponent than re-
puted, but at West Point coaches de-
clare that they are not worrying
about any of the early games, every
effort being made. to point the team
for the big game with the Navy in
New York ON November 80. The
Navy's practise this week has been
toward perfecting a defensive system
against the forward pass plays which
Bucknell is expected To use and the
