No heavy work for the varsity in
scrimmages but a good deal Of atten-

dummy scrimmage, including Allen al
right tackle. Allen seems to have won
that position.
The back field had long drill in re-
ceiving forward passes and the ends
end tackles also were called into play in
the formations. There is considerable

the Michigan forward pass game, but
Collyer. Shuler, and Hill have done
such good work recently in blocking the

Hope to Secure Writ

There Is no little possibility that the

this season, at least before sundown

commissioners today. in behalf of the
VigiIants. and if a writ of stay can be
secured the games already scheduled
by the teams concerned can be played.
This legal documents will permit Sun-

Supreme Court can hand down an in
terpretation of the clause which pro-
hibits the playing of the gridiron sport
on Sunday. Many games have been
booked ahead by the Vigilants, and it
is the fulfillment of these sngayements
which fan heavily on the local team,

WEST DOES POORLY
AGAINST FASTENERS
Only One Victory Has Gone to
Frontiersmen in Clashes on
1914 Gridiron.

While it is not at all certain that the
East excels the West in football this
season, the fate remains that never
since intersectional competition on the
gridiron reached its present scale have
varsities from beyond the Pennsylvania
border Jared so badly against elevens
from this part of the country.
Under the present alignment in foot
ball the East includes such teams az
Pittsburgh and Washington and Jener-
son, which, while beyond the Ale
ghanies, play most OF their contests
with Eastern combinations
Seven times has the West met the
East this year, and only once has the
West scored the decision. 1t was not
until last Saturday, when Michigan
trounced Pennsylvania, that the East
was forced to bow to a Western eleven
The results of the intersectional games
this season are as follows:
Yale, %: Notre Dame, o.
Harvard, q; Michigan, o.
Army. 20; Notre Dame, 2.
Syracuse, 20; Michigan, s.
Washington and Jefferson. y; Mt.
Union, 0.
Colgate, 40: Ohio Wesleyan O..
Michigan, "a; Pennsylvania. 8.
In all the East has scored IA points,
against At for the West. 1t would have
been a mighty meager aggregate for
the West but for that "a tailed by the
There have been thirteen East vs..
South games, and here, too. the East
has held the upper hand by big mar
gin The East has won eight, the
South three. and two resulted in ties.
In the leading games Yale defeated
Virginia by II to 0, the Indians scored
over West Virginia Wesleyan by to 0,
Lehigh defeated Johns Hopkins by S3 to
0, Fordham disposed of Gallaudet by Z
to and tied Georgetown, to Q. the
Navy lost to Penn, 13 to s. and WASH
ington and Lee earned the decision over
Swarthmore. 10 to o.
There have been only two South vs..
West games this year. Michigan de-
feated Vanderbilt by % to 3, while the
Navy found an easy victim in Western
Reserve, 48 to 0. So the score is evened.
Judging from the hard game Michigan
gave Harvard. and in view of the fact
that the Wolverines are not considered
as good as Chicago. Wisconsin or 1lli-
nois, an East vs.. West game for the
championship would certainly be a fine
thing. Perhaps next season schedules
will be so arranged that some of the
Big Conference elevens will play in
the East, either at Princeton or Yale.
