NAVY COACHES FACE

ANNAPOLIS. Oct 26.-With the mid
way point of the season reached, the
friends of the Naval Academy football
team are reasonably satisfied with it's
work. and are particularly pleased ty
the overwhelming defeat of Western

however, as we'll as the players Them
selves, realize that much must De done
to bring the team into shape to have
even a fair chance of victory over the
eleven of the Military Academy at Phil
adelphia on November Is.
The individual work of several of the
backs was excellent. but, on the other
hand, there has been distinct failure
to come up to expectations on the part
of several of whom much was cx-

HARVARD FAILS TO

Michigan Is Not Expected to Do
Much Against Crimson Team

CAMBRIDGE. Mass, Oct. 26.-Now
that Syracuse has administered such a
decisive defeat to Michigan, Harvard's
supporters have ceased to worry about
the outcome of next Saturdays clash
in the stadium here. The Crimson ex-
poets a hollow victory over Yost's VOL
verines. Instead of preparing special
formations for Michigan, all effort will
be directed toward the Princeton game,

A football game between the winner
of the high school series and the title
winner of the Baltimore games might
prove an attraction for the two cities.
1t has been pointed out that none of the
Washington high schools have a chance
to play other high school teams here
for the reason that no field Is available.
An inter-city title game might go we'll
for several years. Harry Brennick,
present coach of the Baltimore City Col
lege team, was approached some time
ago and said that he saw no reason why
such a game could not be played. Bal
timore has two high schools. and from
scores made this season the teams here
compare favorably with the Baltimore
elevens.
There is no question but that Central
will have a decided advantage on the
other schools when the stadium in the
new school is completed Ample room
chance while the field is expected to be
large enough for a football game.
None of the other schools will have
training field or track in proximity
to the institutions, and Central will no
doubt reap a greater harvest of eighth
grade stars in consequence.

runs his team with Judgment at all
times, and seems to get all out of the
eleven that could be gotten. keech, at
fullback, is another player who is de-
serving of more than passing considera-
ton. He runs well with the ball and
looks to possess a driving ability that
will gain him many yards against even
stronger forwards than he has been
called upon to face.
Great hopes are entertained at Epis-
copal for Ed Strubing. fulback on the
eleven. This yOungster is an exception
al athlete, having been elected captain
of the baseball team after leading his
team in hitting all year. At football
he has more than made good.
Now that Business has caused the
