CUPID BLACK MAY
 CAPTAIN YALE AGAIN
Blue Players Emerged From Harvard
 Game in Good Condition.

New Haven, Conn.,. Nov. 26.-With the football season over at Yale there was considerable speculation among students tonight as to who would be the next captain of the eleven. sCu- pid' Black is 8 senior in the Sheffield Scientific school, where the course is three years. It has been reported that Black intends to take a graduate course next year which would make him eligible to play again He has played two years on the varsity, In Inc event that Black decides tosreturn it is considered probable that he may be seriously considered for the lead ership once more.
 If Black does not return 1t is thought the choice of captaincy lies between Baldridge and Gates, both tackles. The election probably will not be held un- till next week.
 The Yale players emerged from the Harvard game in good physical condi- tion with the exception of Moseley, who has q bad agkle. Coach Tad Jones will have the nucleus of a strong elev- en for next season for only a few mem bers of this years varsity will grad uate in June. The greatest loss my graduation will be Harry Le Gore. Fifteen of the squad have accepted the invitations of the Pennsylvania management to witness the Penn Cor nell game at Philadelphia on Thanks giving day.

HARVARD MACHINE WRECKED
Eastern Griiron Classics Played Saturday-Yae Won by
 Sheer Cannes and rilliancy Crimson Play Was
 Short and Uncertain.

New Yorss, Nov. as.-The crest of the eastern football season passed with the playing of the spectacular gridiron classics of Saturday, leaving in it's heroes. The famous Harvard machine, built up at Cambridge during the past few years. was scrapped by a rejuven- ated Yale eleven at the same hour that the Army was wrecking the hopes of the Navy for an eleventh hour vic- tory. On other fields similar scenes were enacted. and there remains only the contests of Thanksgiving day be- fore the curtain is lowered on the great couegian sport for another year.
 In defeating Harvard. the Yale team accomplished far more than the triumph apparent upon the surface. By sheer gameness and individual football at the New Haven universi- ty from the slough of despond ency and brought the game nearer the marks of former days when Yale was factor of first importance in the gridiron world. Coach Tad Jones, with the aid of Captain Black and the band of fighters which the latter gathered about him, laid the groundwork for new system and a more impressive frame of play and players for the years that are to come.
 Viewed in the cold light of the day
 
 eleven was a remarkable football com Ibination when compared with some of the Eli combinations of the past. II was good enough. however, to win from Harvard after six years of eith- CT defeat or scoreless tie play and thai is sufficient honor, for the present at least. The play of it's members was more alert, aggressive and sustained that that of the Crimson combination and this taken in connection with the better physical condftion and the breaks of the game, was the deciding factor in the triumph.
 While Harvard started in a more impressive, manner and was first to score, the Blue had the greater strength and fighting courage and coming from behind, won by outplay- ing and outla.sting it's opponents botf mentally and physically. The team showed nothing in the way of either an advanced attack or defense. | played ordinary football, but with z dash and power that swept the Grim
 son off its feet after the first period and never gave, their opponents chance to recover their peise. Th' play of the Yale ends was fast ant high class and the line from tackle to tackle too active and strong fol the opposing Cambridge scrimmagers The entire backfield proved to be eX celent line plungers. Le Cores enc running and broken field work wa fully up to his previous record.
 Considered as a. whole. the@CrinlsoI play was far slower and more uncer tain than a year ago, and lth' l backs seldom were able to get int their stride, due to. the vicious man ner in which the Yale forwards rip ped up the first line and plunged int the backfield almost with the passing of the ball. The quarterback gener ,oI4 @1,a IT sar-r standard and at times the ball car rier showed tendency to drop his in reference and take chances along un der the stress of the play.

N. ". U. DEFEATED COLUMBIA.
Forward Pass Over Goal Line Brings
 Victory to Violet Eleven.


 In game that was hard fought from start to finish, New York university's football team defeated its old rival, Columbia, by score of 6 to ch South field Saturday. Carroll, the N. Y. U. left end, fell on the bali for a touch down, after Howard Cam had heaved a beautiful forward pass over the goal line from Columbia's, 40 yard line.
 Egan had made leap for the ball as it came soaring over the heads of the struggling players. He caught 1t, but it bounded from his arms, and then Carroll, on tho alert for just such an accident. grabbed the pigskin out of the air before it touched the ground and planted it squarely between the goal posts for the only score of the game Cam failed to kick the goal
 Upon several other occasions other than this. New York appeared on the way to a touchdown, carrying the ball steadily down the field with remark able display of power oli line bucking plays. Just when the rooters inz the north were chanting Touchdown, New York. Touchdown, New York;" how ever, something always intervened, and the good work went for naught.

Army skill triumphed over Navy pluck when the football teams from West Point and Annapolis clashed in- to their annual battle at the Polo grounds, New York. Saturday. The score was 15 to ', but the Middies foughts gamely and grimly until the final blast of the whistle.
 Some 50,000 citizens. not counting the governor of New York, cabinet officers, generals, admirals and an ar my of lesser lights in both branches of the government service, saw the com bat. But for the absence of Presi- dent Wilson the game would have provided all of the spectacular incl dents which go to make Army Navy football battles historic.
 Chill winter winds swept through the great stands packed with cheering partisans, and the gay gowns of femi- nine rooters for the soldiers and sail ors were hidden under furs and heavy coats. But there was no lack of color Seas of chrysanthemums swayed as their wearers cheered and shouted while the pennants of both schools waved proudly.
 When the Cadets poured out of the stands at the end of the game and rushed the colors they had, II vic- tories to their credit to the navy's nine and they celebrated in the time honored fashion. Seven hundred and sixty strong, they nlassed in front of
