LEHIGH ELEVEN
ENDS HARD WORK
FOR LAFAYETTE

South Bethlehem, Penn, Nov. o.
This was the last afternoon OF hard
work for the Lehigh squad. To-day
for about two hours and half Coach
Ready worked with his men, indlvid-
u2lly and as a whole. The net result
of the afternoons work was quite sat-
isfactory.
The uncertainty Of the makeup of the
eleven is keeping the men on the jump
all the time, and 1t IL doubtful il the
actual makeup OF the team will be
made known until just before the game
starts.
This was testing out day for the
cripples-that is. the men who have
been on the injured list, but who seem
10 have fully recovered. The tackling
dummy and bucking strap were once
more hauled out and the cripples were
put TO work. Most of the men stood
the test quite well. After this, there
was a dummy lineup 10 work the men
out on the defensive in breaking La
fsyette forward passes as essayed by
the scrubs. A drill on drop kicking
and placement formations followed.
Drummer was quite accurate in his
drops, averaging four out of six, while
McCarty's form In placement was not
so good.
Trainer Billy Sheridan is working
hard over Pons TO get him into shape,
and IL this can be done he probably
will start at centre. Pons's great WORK
against State College makes him first
choice for the place.
The trimming table was recruited to
its capacity to-day by the addition OF
Becker, Heuer and Frain. Tonight
there was another lengthy signal drill
and blackboard talk in the gym.

Philadelphia, Nov. 22.-Lew Little,

Teams About Equal in
Backheld in Speed
and Power
By GRANTLAND RICE
CHAPTER iii

The most interesting part OF this
amazing serial must, perforce, as you
might say, be carried over to Friday.
(0rder your advance copies now For
tomorrow brings on the psychology OF
the case, which in a Yale-Princeton or
a Yale Harvard game is generally the
leading essence. Yesterdays discussion
was built around the defence. To-day
we resume with the attack.
Starting with the quarterbacks and
the matter of field generalship, which
after all is the most important feature
of the present game, Harvard certainly
isn't going to get the worst of it.
II Travers Smith is ready to play, a
Smith-La Roche combination will COM
pare favorably enough with a Robin
son-Murray team. Smith has looked TO
be one of the seasons leading quarters,
and La Roche against Princeton ran his
team with sound judgment most of the
way.
But good quarterback generalship has
become a tradition at Harvard, where
from one season to another correct gen.
eralship has been handed along. This
hasn't been true of Yale. Tad Jones
has undoubtedly started resumption
of the proper system, but II 1T came to
a tight pinch we would look for better
generalship from the Harvard side,
habit being as powerful as it is. Yale
will undoubtedly show big improve
ment in this respect over past years;
but Harvard is pretty sure not to
make any costly break, since Haughton
is not only raro strategist, but he
has the knack of imparting this
strategy to his quarterbacks in such a
way that it seems 10 stick.

Nettled by Harsh Criticism,
Columbia's Work Is Snappy

The Columbia varsity, smarting I'M

student body, smashed through a long
scrimmage at South Field yesterday af-
ternoon. New York University will be
met on Saturday in the final game of
the season, and the Blue and White in
tends 10 win.
The boys feel that they have to win
to show the university that the team
is behind Columbia. just as Columbia
is behind the team. The work was fast
and snappy. with punch in every play.
Perhaps the most pleasing feature Of
the drill was the open field tackling.
The defence hit hard and low and bore
the runners down. IL they do as we'll

sive Jack Weinheimer will be we'll taken

RUTGERS BUILDS
DEFENCE AGAINST
FORWARD PASSES

New Brunswick, n. j., Nov. 22.-De-
fence against the forward passing game
Of the Washington and jefferson team
that will meet Rutgers at the Polo
Grounds on Thanksgiving Day was the
order Of the day for the Scarlet foot
ball squad this afternoon. Pass after
pass was shot at the varsity by a
scrub team representing w. and j.,
and for the first time this year Rut-
gers showed real proficiency in break
ing up the play.
". and J. is expected TO depend
chiefly on the short pass over the line
OF scrimmage, rather than on the
longer and riskier ones. This style of
play was worked on to-day. Hauser, NJ
end, showed real ability in spelling
these passes.
Mike Wittpenn, end, was put out of
the game when his knee was badly in
jured in scrimmage. He will be unable

A real battle is expected Saturday,
when Garrett, the star Indian guard OF
the Rutgers team. and Welch. Dickin-

the best defensive guard in the coun-
try. and Welch also has big reputa-

Harvard Has Edge on Eli
in Field GeneraIShip

lie Gore, Casey has just one advantage.
He is a surer ground gamer. better
man with the ball despite lie Cores
speed and strength.
But in other respects lie Gore is the
more valuable man. lie is much better
defensively, especially in breaking up
anv forward passing game. And his
kicking ability makes him of greater
use as threat from the kick formation.
II properly used, lie Gore should be
far more effective on Saturday than he
was against Princeton few days ago.
He isn't quite as elusive as Casey, but
for all around value has the call.
In the same way Horween carries
more value than Braden. The Harvard
back isn't quite as good a drop kicker,
but he hits a line harder, is bit surer
for a steady game and his punting sbil-
ity leaves him with decided margin.
So far as actual speed, power and
punch are concerned, there is no great
difference in the backfields. Yale has
about as good material here as Har-
ward has.
But Harvard Is likely to have the ad-
vantage with a more deceptive attack.
So far Yale has shown no great decep-
ton. Jones has wisely restricted his
team to few plays, since this is his first
year on the job. Haughton has had the
opportunity Of carrying his system
along, but just at present he hasn't the
material to handle this system anything
after the manner Of Mahan and King.
If Yale can get next TO Haughton's
"hide the ball" method, Yale's backs
will be as hard to stop as Haughton's.
And since Princeton and Brown proved
we'll enough this deception could be
uncovered by an alert defence, there is
no reason that Yale shouldn't turn the
same trick if Yale keeps her balance
and isn't bewildered at the start.
Harvard certainly has little chance 10
throw Yale into any defensive con-
WILSON'S, such as 1914 and 1915 pro-
duced. In fact, we have an idea that
the Harvard attack will be pretty well
satisfied with one touchdown, trusting
to Harvard's defence to do the rest.

Plans for the mobilization Of the
occupants Of the grandstands at the
Army-Navy game at the Polo Grounds
have been completed. The Army's par
tissns will take up a strategic position
at the Biltmore. while the fotilla Of
naval rooters will anchor in the lobby
of the Aston.
Deserving Democrats connected with
the Administration will arrive at vsri-
Gus times and distribute themselves
at large throughout the city. II is
roughly estimated that the Deserving

will be about ten thousand strong. A

The two teams, which will provide
the excuse for the mobilization Of gold

formed in frock coats and broad

Ithaca, Nov. 21.-CornelPs football

tonight, which means that all rough
work for the varsity is over and that
no more actual scrimmages will be held
on Schoellkopf Field for he rest of the
season.
Instead of taking any chances with
the members of his first eleven, Doctor
Sharpe will confne the training to
dummy scrimmages in which no tack
ling or physical blocking will be al
lowed by either the first or second
teams.
In this afternoons practice there was
no change made in the varsity eleven.

Hoffman showed the best develop

NAVY CHANGES
LINEUP TO MEET
ARMY'S ATTACK
Coach Ingram Says Middies
Have Excellent Chance to
Beat Soldiers
By BRIGGS

Annapolis, Md, Nov. 22.-The final
arrangement of the Naval Academy
football team, as announced by Head
Coach Ingram this afternoon. contains
some surprises as to the makeup Of
the line.
There have been some changes and
some shifts Of position, several play
ers being transferred across the line
from the side where they have played
during most of the season.
These changes have, however, been
thought necessary in order to equalize
the strength Of the wings and have
been carefully thought out in order t.
meet West Points attack.
Weights of Players
The players Of the team which will
start against the Army, with the
weight Of each, are: Left end, Fisher,
1874; left tackle, Ward. III; left guard,
Reifel, III: centre, Goodstein, 1870;
TlRnC xuSTu, hlliIdH, i5o' iASHN SoSh'N'
Clarke, 1877; right end. Jackson. 10;
quarterback, Whelchel, 145: left half
back, Roberts, 1853: right halfback, In
gram, 175; fullback, Perry, 200.
1t was not expected that Fisher, at
left end, and Clarke, at right tackle,
would find places in the first lineup.
However, they are strong players.
Fisher, is a particularly aggressive
player, and Oliphant, the Army's main
reliance, will know that he has been
tackled if the Navy left end ever goes
into him right. Clarke got into good
many matches last season and this and
is steady player.
Practise in Secret.
Secret practise was held this after
noon but no regular scrimmage. The
main points covered this afternoon
were the perfecting of the Nays for
ward pass plays and practise in break
ing up similar plays. This has been a
weak point of recent Navy teams.
Coach Ingram expressed the opinion
that his team had an excellent chance
of winning He believes that the Navy
line is Just as strong as the Army's,
and that mis- backfield is on the whole,
superior, particularly in its numerous
high class alternates.

CADET COACHES
SHIFT PLAYERS
IN BACKFIELD
Victory for ''Runts" Traditional
Sign Army Will Defeat
Navy

West Point, N. Y, Nov. 22.-All the
Armys heavy work is at an end. The
cadets were given a two-hour workout
on the Plains this afternoon, twenty
minutes Of which was devoted to light
scrimmaging. There was no scoring.
The varsity men lined up with House
and Shrader, ends; Jones and Butler,
tackles; Meacham and knight. guards;
Captain McEwan, centre. Behind the
line Gerhardt worked at quarter. Oil
phant and Place were the halfbacks,
and Vidal was at fullback.
Ford and Bringham got into the drill
behind the line when Place and Vidal
left the field. Harmon ran through the
signal drill In one of the backfield po-
sitions. II is hardly decided whom the
cadets will flash as their backfield men.
The shifting about to-day would indi-
cate that DAILY has not made up his
mind about this feature of the teams
makeup.
Kicking Game Strong
The kicking game continues strong
and II il certain that Oliphant will be
called upon to do all the punting
against the Navy. Ollie's high twisting
spirals to-day were hard for the scrubs
to handle, and the mentors were much
pleased with his kicking.
The substitute quarterback situation,
which is worrying the coaches, was
somewhat cleared up to-day, when Muir
rill appeared in togs and went through
fight work. Daily had Stencil, Johnson
and Kilburn all following the play. To-
morrow the team will take a light sig
nal practice and leave for New York
Friday morning
A wild demonstration in the stands
by the cadet battalion was a feature of
to-days practice. The cadets marched
70 the field behind band of their own
makeup, headed by squad Of other
mounted cadets on mules.
Good Omen for Cadets
Cheers and songs, hurting de1es at
an imaginary battalion across the field,
rang out during the whole workout.
The "runts" and "fankers" played their
traditional anti-Navy game contest The
melee wound UP in iree-for-all. dur
ing which "runt" stole the ball IN the
dark and ran for q touchdown.
Tradition has il il the "runts" win
the Army will beat the Navy in their
annual battle. The sign has seldom
failed.
The "runts" are the small men in the
battalion. and the "fankers" the big
fellows.

parade. The Army cadets performed
their nanGuyres while the Deserving
Democrats and mere citizens wondered
If the United States had a navy. No
body was on deck but Secretary Jose
phus and a few admirals. But the
Navy finally solved the navigation laws
of the broad and tempestuous Hudson
and arrived with their goat, which they
promptly lost by score of IA to 0.
In the meantime the coaches at both
academies are attempting to mask the
batteries which they will wheel into
action for the football game Saturday.
This is 4 difficult job up at the Point,
for il is practically certain that the
backfield which will start for the lands
men will be Oliphant. Vidal, Place and
Gerhardt.
In fact. the only position which has
not been practically decided by the
army is the wing post. The Army in
this regard is somewhat in the plight
OF Cornell. which found it hard to
guard against flank attacks.
The Navy probably will start with
its Infant backfeld," no members of
which are over nineteen years of age.
Coach Ingram believes that the young.
sters will sweep those hoary-headed
veterans OF the Army kfeld-some
of whom are nearly twenty-three years
old-off their feet. Anyhow, the
youths in their teens will start against
the old men of the Army.
Both football squads will hold short
workouts at the Polo Ground to-mor-
row. One will be given the field in the
morning. while the other will have il
for the early afternoon.
Special boxes have been reserved for
the President and party, one on the
Navy side and one on the Army side.
The commander-in-chie of both SER
vices is supposed TO maintain strict
neutrality at the contest He will sit
with the Army for one-half and with
the Navy for the other.

Public, the only officer who has no
standing at this affair, there are no
seats for the game 10 be had anywhere

mated that about 10000 persons will
