There was time In football, and 1t
wasn't so long ago, when If So
called small team defeated ar eleven
representing one Of the larger colleges
or universities it would have been
guilty of lese majesty. It was seldom
that 1t happened. Occasionally, Of
course, one Of the big teams came
cr0pper In an early-season clash, but
for the most part the games served
the purpose for which they were sched.
uled-namely, the mediums whereby
coaches gradually developed their
charges for the feature games Of the
season.
Score Over Big Rivals.
But In recent years these smaller
elevens have been scoring victories
over their bigger rivals more frequent

now many Of the youngsters" are en-
titled to be classed with the big teams.
Swarthmore, Lafayette, Lehigh, Col

few Of the smaller teams that at DIFF
ferent times In recent seasons have
developed power enough to score vic
tories over the 4big uns" in the early

small colleges have engaged good
coaches. These mentors have been
able to whip their material into ma
chimes capable Of playing the best OF
football. Furthermore, since beating a
big team is quite feather in the cap
of the little eleven the coaches have
rushed the perfection of their teams
for these early games. The smaller
elevens are developed earlier than the
big ones, the coaches Of the big ones
preferring to perfect their machines by
degrees, always working with the one
or two big games on the schedule as
the objective.
Good Example.
Tufts is a good example Of the early
development Of a small eleven. When
Tufts invaded the stadium at Cam
bridge recently there were few who
anticipated a defeat for Harvard. The
majority viewed the game as an early
season romp for the Crimson. Instead
Tufts won by. a Z to 8 count.
Critics were at a loss to understand
whether the upset was due to weak.
