The SnOrfiye Pendulum.

Ten years ago Yale and Pennsyl vania had the best coaching systems in the East. Yale and Penn. knew more football than any others by 10 or 20 leagues. Their annual diet consisted of Harvard and Cornell.
 Today Harvard and Cornell have the two best coaching systems in the East, with Yale and Penn. at the other end of the trail. Sport is loaded down with these shifts, showing the fiickle- ness of sportive fortune-showing how quickly success can run to failure and how quickly failure can be turned into success with the proper method adopted.

BLUE AND CRIMSON
 READY FOR BATTLE
Harvard Rules Slight FaVorite at 5-4-Yale Team Near Battlefield

Cambridge, Mass, Nov. 19.-The having completed physical prepara- tion for their combat of next Satur- day, last night sought mental relaxa- ton in new surroundings. The Yale squad arrived at it's temporary head quarters in Newton, within a few miles of the Stadium, almost at the same time that the Harvard players left for Tyngsboro, forsaking the scenes of their seasons training.
 The Crimson representatives were given a loud voiced send-off by their fellow undergraduates, who paraded to the Stadium, and there massed be- hind a band to see their team in practice for the first time in weeks. As the eleven went through a few easy motions of play, the students | cheered the players in turn, and Coach Haughton and members of his staff also received tributes. The un- der-graduates marched away as they came, practicing the tunes and the cheers that have been kept for the game with Yale
 Rollins Back With Squad
 At Tyngs Island last night the liar ward men, after dinner, took a brisk walk and then listened to, a short blackboard talk from Coach Haugh- ton, after which they had a few in door games for diversion.
 Harvard's strength was said to be at its full measure last night, with due exception of the loss of Enwright, due to scholastic difficulties. Rol- lins was back with the squad in good shape. Cowan has assured himself of the place at left guard which he was called upon to fill when Taylor strained his back, but Taylor is in

WESLEYAN FAvoRITE.

Wesleyan is preparing to meet Trin- ity at Hartford on Saturday, and is favorite at present. A team com posed of the ineligibles and coaches including Kan Kenan, last years cap- tain an assistant coach is making the regulars work hard. Wesleyan has the best team that has repre- scented the college for ten years. Deetjen and Harman are expected to outshine Brickley of Trinity. Deet- jen has made more yards on end runs than any other man, while liar man holds the record for the longest, run, 95 yards against Williams.

No wise man who follows sport for any time should ever carry a touch of egotism. When men like Mack and McGraw can finish last-when football systems like those of Yale and Penn. can go to seed with such swiftness, the briefness and fickleness of fame can be understood

 Eiis in Good Condition.
 The Yale men settled into their period of rest before the game in much the same manner. During the early evening Trainer Johnny Mack let them on a short walking trip, and at his direction they retired early.
 Mack said there was not a man Tn the squad off form, except Weide- mann, the end, who was injured in the Princeton game. Allen, it was be- lieved, would be the choice of the Blue coaches for his place Saturday, although Higginbotham undoubtedly will be called into play during the game.
 To become accustomed to the air currents and lights and shades Of the Stadium, the Yale players went there this morning for a short workout. pr. William T. Bull, Yale's kicking coach, will direct the practice or Guernsey, whose kicking is relied on by the Yale advisers to remove an ad- vantage which Harvard has enjoyed in most of the games this years through Mahans successful booting.
 Yale Team Leaves.
 Forty Yale football players departed on the 1:40 train yesterday afternoon for Auburndale, near the Harvard Stadium, and about 5000 alumni and undergraduates marched behind brass band to the railroad station to give the gridders a rousing send-off. The lineup announced last night was the same as that used against Princa- ten last Saturday. Professor Robert Corwin, chairman of the Yale Attn letic committee, asserted that neither Yale nor Harvard would protest a single player of the other. The time for protesting to the dual eligibility committee, Otto T. Barnard and Robert Wrenn of New York city, eX- rired last week.
 Betting odds when the team de- | parted favored Harvard by only A E-to-4 margin. Tickets to the game advanced to $50 each here today, or | s125 for two together.
 Yale took seven ends, eleven tackles, five guards, three centers seven halfbacks and two fullbacks on | the trip.
