Two Big Eastern Eievens Begin Final
Preparations for Greatest Foot
ball Fuss Of the
Year.
AN EMPTY VICTORY
Brown Has Defeated Both Teams and
is Logical Holder Of Eastern
Belt-Pittsburs
Strong.
by H. c. Hamilton, United Press
Staff Correspondent

NEW YORK, Nov. 20-Yale and
Harvard today began final prepa a
lions for the biggest football fus1 OF
the year. Points will be driven home
by the rival coaches, secret practice
will be held and every energy will
be bent toward turning up victory
Saturday.
But the glory OF victory this year
will be- empty. At Providence. N. J.
there are justified claims that top
those of Yale, Harvard, Princeton and
all the rest of the gang. Brown, with
the husky negro Pollard as a main
stay, has whipped both Yale and
Harvard, who have victories to their
credit over Princeton.
Brown still has game on its
schedule and it is a tussle of consid-
cradle importance. In Colgate the
Providence eleven. will find a worthy
opponent on Thanksgiving day.
1t is unfortunate that schedules do
not call for meeting between Pitts
burgh and Brown. These two elevens
are the classes of the east without
struggle right row Neither has seen
it's standard trailed in the dust this
year and what is more, they have
won their games by preponderance
Of figures that leaves no room for
argument. Pittsburgh hasn't met Har-
ward nor Yale, but it probably is just
as we'll for the elevens of those two
chesty universities that it didn't The
principal winter sport probably will
be deciding whether Brown or Pitts
burgh is entitled to the title.
Yale's victory over Princeton by a
touchdown and a field goal gives the
Blue decided advantage In fixing UP
basis on which to spread the dope
for the meeting next Saturday at
New Haven.
Harvard was unable to Cross the
Tiger goal line. Tia best that could
be accomplished was a field goal and
Yale was good enough to register one
of those also. 4ales' attack proved
stronger against the Princeton de-
tense than did Harvard's and Yale
showed to a better advantage in picS-
ing up the Tiger misplays.
While the Yale and Harvard teams
are whetting their knives, these old
rivals, Army ana Navy, also will be
getting ready Tor some gore. The big
game falls on the same day as the
Yale-Harvard scrap.
Just now it Looks like another Army
year. The cadets have met and de-
feated some IF the best elevens in
the country, including Springfield and
Notre Dame. Forward passing with
the mighty Oliphant to heave the
ball, has carried them in long
stretches down the field. Line plunS-
| ing with Oliphant or his terrible team
mate Vidal. to carry the ball, has re-
duced real res Its and either Vidal
or Oliphant can kick goals with 1e-
lentless precision from unheard Of
angles.
