(By FRANK G. MENKE0
Yale's football prospects are bright
er just now than for many, many
years, and the Eli enthusiasts are sure
that the Bulldog will come back into
his own this year.
Yale was hit by graduation last
June-and hit in quite a number of
places. But Yale isn't groggy as a re-
suit. With the exception of Captain
Talbot. Yale doesn't seem to have
lost any man that she VIII miss-or

the best Yale had last year-but
Yale's best in 1914 was not up to the
Yale standard.
Lack of real footballers handicapped
Coach Frank Hinkey last year-and
it was that that enabled Harvard to
give Yale the worst beating it has
suffered in all its football history
But this year things are different.
Yale Has Great BackfeId.
The Yale backfeld for 1915 seems
sure to gain fame as one of the greatest
in the country Alex Wilson, captain, is
a certainty for quarterback; Guernsey
will be at left half, Scovil, a terrific
line smasher. will play the other half
and the wonderful Harry LeGore will
be at full
Wilson and LeGore were regulars
last year; ScOvil and Guernsey were
first-string substitutes. Yet the four
played together often enough to per
feet team work, and with Hinkey to
school them further in the trickeries
of the open game, and with the quar-
tot ranking as one of the speediest
in the game. there's a promise that
some brilliant and dazzling plays will
feature the operations of the Yale
backfeld
LeGore will do the punting and the
drop-kicking, as he did last year, I'M
less Hinkey finds a rookie" who is
better. which seems almost outside Of
the range of possibilities. Wilson and
Guernsey boot with eclat. power and
accuracy, and can do the relief work
whenever called upon.

PROVES HIS GAMENE SS
Courage of Georges Carpenter
Shown in Great War.
American Fight Fans Thought He Had
Streak Of Yellow on Account of
Actions in Fight Years Ago
With Billy Papke.

Most American followers Of box
ing have always had an idea that
Georges Carpenter, heavyweight
champion of Europe and greatest idol
in the history of French sports, has
every qualification of a boxing cham
pion with the exception of gameness.
This was particularly impressed on
their minds when he quit to Bill
Papke, former worlds middleweight
champion. in II rounds in Paris a
few years ago. However, this idea
has been proved false since the great
est European war started. Carpen-
tiers European record in the big
struggle has shown him to be a man
Of unusual courage
Within Gun Range.
During the early months of the war
Carpenter was used as a messenger.
1t was his duty to carry messages on
a motorcycle from one general to an
other Often he was obliged to come
mighty close to the enemys guns--in
fact, near enough to forfeit his life if
he came in the path of stray bullets
as he was frequently within range.
What do you think he is doing
now? And it is the supreme test of
courage. He is plotting one of those
airships that have to go up many
thousands of feet in the air and get
a line on where the Germans and
Austrians are situated At any time
he is in danger of having his ma
chine struck by shot-and then it is

To Be Honored.

war times the dangers of losing his
life are multiplied.
To Be Honored.
If Carpenters life is spared, and
the warning nations lay down their
arms, he will probably become one OF
the most prominent figures in Europe,
and it would be no surprise if the
French government conferred some
high official honors upon him-maybe
some big job in the employ of the
nation.
Carpenter is one of the most pic
turesque figures in the history of
sport He took up boxing when it
was inaugurated in France. and won
championship after championship uu-
til he captured the heavyweight cham
pionship from Bombardier Wells. He
has the honor of holding every ring
title from flyweight to the topweight
class
He won on a foul from Gunboat
Smith IN London early last summer
and earned a fortune for this victory
The result caused all kinds Of dis.
cussion, it being a question in the
minds OF the american public whether
Smith quit or whether Georges was
really hit low
1t would not be surprising to hear
that when his country no longer needs
him. Carpenter will come to this
country and challenge for a fight for
the heavyweight championship OF the
