With Cornell an almost certain
winner over the University of Penn
sylvania's football team tomorrow,
and the football curtain almost on the
point of dropping on the most sue
cessfuI season in its history, there is
one big regret in the hearts of many
gridiron enthusiasts. That one dis
appointment is the fact that Harvard
and Cornell did not meet this year.
That Harvard could beat Cornell is
the opinion held by many, yet this
Cornell team is one of wonderful
fighting qualities, and since it struck
its real stride no team has been ca
pable of measuring its strength.
The comparison afforded through
the Michigan Harvard and the Mich
igan-CorneI games Is hardly a fair
one, because Harvard was crippled
at the time the Crimson eleven met
the westerners.
Last year Cornell was beaten cas-
lily by Harvard, but at that time the
Comedians were not in the same class
as a football team as they are this
season. To Harvard goes the foot
ball supremacy for 1914. but Cornell
is undoubtedly entitled to be ratec
high on the list.
Harvard Would Play Michigan.
Harvard is not opposed to playing
a game with Michigan next year II
Michigan will again come east. This
the westerners will hardly do. A
contest next year between the two
institutions would be a most inter-
testing football battle. Harvord loses
most of her stars. while Raynsford
and Hughitt are the biggest men lost
BY Michigan. Eight of her regulars
will be intact for next years team

Richard Croker Plays
Golf on Deal Links

That Richard Croker, the former
Tammany leader, is an ardent golfng
enthusiast was evident on the links
of the Deal Golf and Country Club
recently, when, with Andrew Freed
man as partner, he defeated Joseph
NJ. Byrne, of this city, and Cornelius
j. Sullivan, vice-president of the New
York Baseball Club, in foursome
match. Mr.. Croker Is seventy-one
years of age. but can still acquit him
self c"editably on the links. Mr.. Sui
llvan's home club is at Baltusrol
where he has won many prizes in
competition. On account of this fact
Mr.. Sullivan with Mr.. Byrne, who is
also we'll versed on the game, had to
concede handicap to Messrs. Croker
and Freedman
When asked how he came to take up
golf, Mr.. Croker replied, "Well, I sup
pose the clubs reminded me of the
good old shillalah."

A correspondent, who claims he was
once a rooter for Barringer, but who
has changed his love, writes as fol-
lows anent the Barringer-South Side
High football game:
]. p. N:
have been a close follower Of
scholastic football in these parts for
years, and in games in which the
Barringer High School was a COM
petitor the team has always been my
favorite, but last Saturday, at the
South Side-B -Barringer contest, finally
changed my opinion of the merits OF
the Ridge street institution. | think
it is too bad that the record of that
school was marred by the low, mean
playing of their boys. The South
Side High youngsters played a sports
manlike game and deserve credit for
tying the team which tried to defeat
them by unfair tactics. / have met
the manager of the South Side eleven
and on Saturday when Barringer
player, l believe his name was
Decker was allowed to substitute for
teammate, this South Slider pointed
out the fact to me that this player a
half-back, had been proven ineligible

If this is true, should not the Clinton
Hill school have a claim of forfeit on
the Barringerites? Hoping to see an
answer from you in your valuable
column, | remain,

ing machine without a weak cog, so
smoothly running and so powerful
that Yale was almost helpless, forget
full, even, of the gentle art of tack
ling
"Yale's defeat. however, has not in
the least shaken the faith of Coach
Hinkey. He has taken hold Of foot
ball in the right way, banishing that
superhuous grimness without which
many think no team is complete, and
which brands the man who is seen to
smile upon the football field as a
coward and a shirker.'

The Washington and Jefferson foot
ball men who played against George
town at Washington, ID. c. last Sat
urday. brought back the report that
a. A. Exendine, the Georgetown coach,
had been signed to coach the Carlisle
Indian eleven, succeeding Glenn War
ner, who will go TO the University of
Pittsburgh.
Exendine is a former Carlisle star
and served his first year at George
town this season. His work there was
so meritorious and attracted so much
attention that he was the first man
considered when Warner announced
that he would leave the Indian school.
Bxendine partly confirmed the report
of his departure, but the authorities
at Georgetown were the first to di-
vulge the intention OF the coach to go
to Carlisle. They tried to retain him
for another season, Offering a large
increase in salary, but according to
their report, he preferred to take up
the work at his alma mater.

Coach Foster Sanford is devoUng
his time this week to strengthening
the Rutgers defense. He believes
that the offense OF the New Bruins
wick team is strong enough to
score on Washington and jefferson,
and is therefore, attempting to de-
velop a defense that will be able TO
stop the speedy rushes of the w.
and J. backfield. Todd, Talman,
Scarr and Wittpenn did not take
part in the scrimmage yesterday.
Todd has a badly wrenched shoul-
der as the result of the Stevens
game. and may not be able to play
next Saturday He is one of the
fastest men on the team, and played
we'll against Syracuse and Stevens.
Scarr, the regular quarterback, has
been out of the game for the past
three weeks, but it is thought that
he win be back in harness in few
days. Talman and Wittpenn are
troubled with minor injuries.
Coach Sanford predicts an easy
game with New York University to-
morrow, and will probably use the
majority of the scrub team, in order
10 save the first-string men for the
important contest on Saturday.
Great interest is being shown in
the washington and Jefferson game,
which will be played on the Polo
Grounds in New York on November
gs. A large section has been re-
served for the Rutgers rooters, and
it is estimated that about 1000 stu
dents and alumni will attend the
contest.

Navy Has It's Worries.

The Navy coaches have not decided
who shall fill three of the line posi-
tions in Saturdays game with Army.
One guard and both tackles are yet
to be selected. The line, particular
" the left wing admittedly, is too
weak to withstand slashing attacks
Kennedy, who has been playing left
tackle, is considered too light, but
McCoach, Ward and Deroode, all OF
whom have had a try at right tackle,
have not given complete satisfaction.
Graf seems certain to fill left
guard, but the selection for the other
side of centre is a problem. The
probabilities favor Mills, a husky
freshman, of 100 pounds, who, how
ever, does not know a great deal
