GOOD GAMES FOR
EASTERN FIELDS
PROMISED TODAY
Harvard-CorneII Contest Has
Most Prestige, But Other
Meetings of Interest Are
Scheduled for Decision.

NEW YORK, Nov. Eastern
football fields will be the scene OF
some interesting intercollegiate
games Saturday, although none will
rise to the plane OF championship
contest. Considered in a broad sense,
however. the days gridiron clashes
are the most pretentious and promis-
ing Of the season TO date, and there
is the added spice Of not too remote
possibilities OF upsets and surprises
An added feature viii be the staging
of several inter-sectional games,
through which IL viii be possible to
gauge the football progress and abil-
ity Of some OF the leading eleVens OF
the east and middle-west.
So far as prestige is concerned, the
Harvard Cornell game at Cambridge
stands forth as the leading eastern
gridiron event Of the day That the
contest will develop a sensational
feature for the football weeks end is
unlikely; the indicated crimson
combination appears to stand super
Tor to the invaders from the shores
OF Cayuga lake
Yale Has Hard Foe.
The Yale team will face n worthy
opponent in the strong Colgate aggre-
play its best to win decisively over
the collegians from Hamilton. y. Y.
The seven TO six victory by the Army
is the one defeat to date, while the
nO-sCOre tie with Cornell and victor
les over Amherst. Hobart and Trinity
give clear index of the caliber OF
the Colgate team.
Princeton in playing Holy Cross
Will face "A team already defeated by
Harvard AZ TO : and Yale 10 TO 0.
For this reason the game will appeal
20 those followers Of football who
persist in the idea that comparative
scores form a safe basis for estimat-
ing the strength of rival elevens.
Pennsylvania and Penn State are
scheduled for Franklin field. The
Quakers have a score to settle with
their rivals of somewhat of a similar
name for the Penn States have made
trouble for the Philadelphia cOlleg-
pears to be an off one for Penn state
and it is likely that George BroOke's
boys will roll up a stable score to
square accounts.
Army vs.. NOtre Dame.
The L.. s. Military academy team
will act as a strenuous host 10 the
Notre Dame eleven from the middle
west Saturday and some interesting
and perhaps sensational football
should result The western brigade
has been playing a fast open game
this season and has scored repeatedly
by brilliant and complicated forward
passes. In facing the Army on
dry field at West Point the visitors
will have an excellent opportunity TO
display the style of football popular
in the middle west. In the Army they
will find a team well Versed in up-to-
date eastern offensive and defensive
tactics. For this reason the test of
the two systems will be awaited with
as much interest as the outcome of
the Syracuse-Michigan game at Ann
Arbor, which is also scheduled for
decision Saturday.
In the southern section OF the east
ern gridiron world two games of
prominence stand out in the Carlisle
Georgetown contest at Washington
and the Navy-Behigh clash at Ann
aDolis. The Lehigh team does not
apparently class with the powerful
Navy team. While Georgetown has
proved strong and successful in the
home games this season. the general
play of the Indians has been such as
TO point to them as the logical win
ners of the game TO be played at the
national capital
Other Games on Schedule.

billions of modern gTidiron play. in
