! This is especially true of the Yale 1 Princeton game, one of the oldest | gridiron clashes of the country Both ! teams will hold nothing in reserve when they meet in the Palmer memo- rial stadium at Princeton and tho struggle should prove both close and spectacular
 No championship is involved as both Princeton and Yale have been defeat ed this season. Princeton enters the game with a veteran combination which has not had it's goal line crossed to date and with cnly the three to nothing defeat by Harvard to mar it's record. Yale lost to Brown a week ago this being the only contest which the Blue has won, but the showing of the New Haven combination has not been as impressive as that of the Tigers.
 Princeton has been noted all season for the strong defensive play of both the line and the backfield Not one of the seven teams which have opposed the Tigers has been able to rush the ball across the Orange and Black goal line.
 Against powerful opponents. how ever. the Tigers have not shown an impressive offense
 The Harvard Brown contest pre- sents uncertainty. Brown has an elev- en of unusual strength. The attack is both powerful ard deceptive. If Harv- ard were to send her best team against Brown. the crimson probably would he a slight favorite. If the sec- ond string players. good as the Cam bridge eleven is. can hold Brown even or defeat the invaders, it will be {. remarka ole tribute to the coaching ability of HaGghton and his board of strategy.
 Another game of interest will be the contest between Syracuse and Colgate Roth elevers are fast and powerful, scoring machines. but the Hamilton team has shown greater consistency in ;ts play than Syracuse The Army and Navy teams will face opponents of only moderate strength in the final contests prior to the meeting of the two service elevens. -s
 The Cadets Will oppose the Spring field '. NJ. C. A. training school a. West Point The Middies will find Vil- Ia Ncva strong defensively but should outmateh thaa team in attack.
 Beth Dartmouth and Pittsburg arc likely to prove too powerful for West Virginia and Carnegie Tech, respectiv- ely, but will have to work hard for every point scored. Other games which will bring together teams where the rivalry and series are of much in> teres. include Lehigh vs. Franklin and Marshall HoIy sCross vs. Fordham, ard Bucknell vs. Gettysburg.
 Princeton Gets Ready.
 PRINCETON. x. J., Nov IT, PrinCeton's preparation for the Yale game. which will bs held in the Pal mer memorial stadium tomorrow af- ternocn. was completed today with light signal drill that lasted little over one hour In order to perfect defense to meet the attack of the Yale backs, Coach Rush had the Princeton substitutes use the Yale offensive for nations or the varsity fin a dummy scrimmage.
 As a result of the leniency of the coaches and in dealing out work, this week the varsity players all appear to be in the pest of condition for the contest Although there is not any over confidence among students. coach and pla. nrs, there is q buoyant hope among all that Princeton's defeats suffered at the hands of Yale will be broken up in the Princeton amphi thCater tomori ow afternoon.

 Central west football will have it's final chance at the east for this sea- son when Pennsylvania and Michigan clash at Ann Aroor. Thus far the east has the clearer slate. Yosts men, llli- nois, Indiana. and Notre Dame. having failed in previous attempts to upset teams from the seaboard states with the single exception of Michigan's win from Syracuse.
 The other intersectional contest will be staged at Bloomington. where the eleven from the University of Florida will try cCnclusions with Coach Stiehm's Indiana men. Weather may prove something of factor in this contest as it $ thought that anything looking like a blizzard will handicap the Florida men, unaccustomed as they propably are, to slippery footing and m icy. wet ball.
 Ohio State probaSl9' will use it's full strength at the start of the game with Case at Cleveland. Like the Iowa Alnes battle, this will be contest for state supremacy backed by years Of legend.
