dates for the varsity teams If possible.
This being the case, the faculty should
arrange uniform hours for recreation.
The Navy coaches are still ,bemoaning
the lack of a game with the Army and
are hoping that in some manner negotia-
tions may yet be renewed for this con-
test. For these two teams not to play
each other would be as bad as for Har-
ward and Yale not to meet. While this
statement, of course. is not official, the
Army-Navy game may yet be arranged,
and the Pennsylvania football authorities
rather look for it, When the two acade
mics were in communication with Penn
sylvania they were told that the Quakers
would give them 1900 seats, or 1850
each on Franklin Field. Doubtless the
Quakers could have been prevailed upon
to give them 1900 each.
If the game were played at Shibe Park
the present seating capacity there. ac-
cording TO the worlds series figures. Is
less than 21,0OO. Thus the University of
Pennsylvania has already offered the
Army and Navy more seats than Shibe
Park contains, and there is no compari.
son between the comfort of the seats or
the appropriateness of the two fields.
Shibe Park could be made to accommodate
the game only at much expense. Franklin
Field Is open for their use as soon as
they ask for 1t.
The whole college world will regret the
cancellation OF this game even for year.
And the two academies shouldn't over
look the fact that II the game isn't
played this year the chances are not very
good for a contest next fall. All of
which is additional reason for the two
academies forgetting their difficulties and
playing the game on Franklin Field.
where 1t properly belongs.
