Attempting to pick winner under the

the reason that out Of the field no one

Boston can crush Detroit and Chicago the

AS for Brooklyn and Philadelphia. the

Carlisle Indians to

Thanksgiving Morn

New Haven, Nov. 22-Manager
Cooper Of the Winchester A. A foot
ball team last night announced that
the Thanksgiving day contest with
the Carlisle Indians will be played
in the morning instead of the after
noon. Cooper, in announcing the
change of the time of the contest,
stated that it will give the spectators
a chance to get to their homes in time
for dinner and will also avoid any
friction with the Annex and Glees,
who are scheduled to battle for the
city championship on that date. On
the other hand many football fans
have expressed desire to see both
contests. The change of starting time
of the Winchester Carlisle game as
a result will make this possibility

MOVIES SHOW YALE
PLAYERS MISTAKES OF
GAME AT PRINCETON

New Haven, Nov. 22-The entire
Yale squad assembled in the baseball
cage of the gymnasium last night and
watched the moving pictures Of the
Yale-Princeton game while Head
Coach Jones pointed out the defect of
their playing and where they must be
improved to be in the game against
Harvard.
/, The pictures are not very astis-
factory way Of explaining this, how
ever. On account OF the speed at
which they are taken and the general
blurred effect of so many men around
the field in their football togs, a very
clear idea OF the mistakes in the plays
cannot be very we'll be had.
The numbering of the players, how
ever, helps out a good deal in show
ing up the faults by movies. The big
white letters stand out we'll on the
blue backgrounds of the jerseys, and
identity many a player whom the spec
tator would not be able to distinguish
in any other way.
The pictures of both of the big
games are taken under the auspices
of the Athletic association, and are
shown about the various Yale clubs
of the country. The Harvard game is
the one which is of particular interest
and the pictures will be copied and
sent out to all parts Of the United
States.

QUAINT Referee is
HIT OF EVENING AT
BASKETBALL GAME
'lBv Wa9ner.l

Prof. Hill, the singing referee, was
on hand with the words and music
at Colonial hall last might. He
watched like a hawk as the Blue
Ribbon and New York fives played
basketball and every time a player
made foul the referee pointed a
long finger at the offender and sang
a little verse. Every selection was
given a round Of applause by the fans
and when the professor announced
the hard working McEnelley's orches
ira as ''McKtnley's orchestra the au-
dience went into such raptures that
he had to give his unique pronuncia-
ton again.
The referee was more interesting
than the game for the Ribbons out
classed the New York five. The
metropolitan boys look to be about
the weakest club in the league. They
managed to hold the locals pretty

Owing to the fact that White miss

baseball star. was in uniform as sixth
man. Manager Leavy will probably

CAPT. Black is
SLIGHTLY ILL IN
YALE HOSPITAL

New Haven, Nov. 22-Actual work
in preparing the Yale team to meet
Harvard in the Bowl on Saturday be-
gan yesterday afternoon with scrim-
mage for the scrubs and a long signal
drill for the varsity.
The varsity lined up as follows:
Moseley, left end; Gates, left tackle;
Club Sheldon, left guard; Callahan
centre; Fox, right guard; Baldridge.

had a slight temperature and the
coaches thought he would rest better
at the infirmary than in his room.
That this theory was a good one was
shown last night. for his temperature
was practically normal and his throat
almost we'll. He will be at the field
today and will surely play against
Harvard on Saturday.
Club Sheldon, who went through
the signals in his place, might get in
the Harvard game for q few minutes.
His past work for Yale entities him
I to a place in the final game of his
college course. His recovery has
been rapid, and while he could not
play through the game. there is a
posi- ility he may play for a few
minutes.
Tad Smith came to the field straight

was in the Bowl in street clothing by

Middies Better Than Army in Line But Are Afraid Of
Oliphant.

Saturday. In every game, except
against Pittsburgh. the Blue forwards
outplayed their rivals, and repulsed
the assaults in manner that left no
doubt. The Army line, while strong.
has shown nothing that would war;
rant overconfidence on the part of it's
followers.
Against Notre. Dame the forwards
were badly outplayed, and failed to
provide openings for the backs to
plunge through. Defensively they
were weak, too, and the westerners
ripped through for large and consis-
tent gains. The. superiority of the
Army's overhead attack decided that
issue, and it may, perhaps. decide the
issue on Saturday.
The chief weapon Of the Army, as
disclosed thus far, is the forward
pass. The overhead attack has been
highly developed at West Point, and
with Oliphant throwing to Vidal
many. touchdowns have resulted. This
combination proved too much for No
ire Dame, which had the stronger
running attack by far.
The pass has been made from a
tandem formation, with Vidal third
man, and O1iphant second. The for
forrne-, on the snap of the ball, dashes
off tackle and cuts back into the mid
die of the field, while the ends try
to decoy the halfbacks off to one side
Oliphant makes long throw over
the line of scrilnmage, and Vidal has
been able to get the ball with great
regularity.
The Navy has a strong. running at
tack, stronger than the scores would
indicate. but the passing game is not
so well developed. The ball, as a rule
has been passed to q certain square
on the field, and the ends are expected
to be there on scheduled time. There
is no such careful selection of men
before passing as the Army makes
Both teams have shown great pow
er throughout the year, and on scores
perhaps, the Army looks stronger.
They beat Washington and Lee, which
beat the Navy, and, as told before,
Pittsburgh also conquered the young
admirals. However, any team which
can hold that wonderful machine
from the Smoky City and play to
within one point of it must be ranked
near the top. Whichever wins, it will
be battle for the gods. and the foot
ball world eagerly awaits the re-
suit.

JACK BRlTTON HAS

their children of the ring perform

end of the contest.

pion of the world, was awarded the

The navy has few scores to settle
with the Army, and every Wearer of
the Gold and Blue believes that this is
the year of years for revenge. i 1t is
coincidental perhaps, that the last
time the Navy whipped the Army was
in 1912.
Four long years have passed since
the Navy defeated the Army. In the
interim the Navy goat has wandered
around ableating piteously, and Won
dering when another Jack Dalton or
Babe Brown will be revealed to the
Navy and deliver him out of his bond
age. II the Navy has. waited four
years for the moment when by right
of might of the team She might nail
her pennant to the goal post in token
of victory won, she has waited still
longer for a touchdown.
Nine years have passed since a
Navy back carried the pigskin across
the Army goal line. All}itsi scoring in
that period has come as the result of
goals from the field. Yet victory was
won in 1910s III and ~, thanks to
Dalton and Brown. =
Yf1e Army record is perhaps the
more impressive, for the Gold, Black
and Grey have yet to be struck to any
team this season. The Navy on the
other hand, ran on couple of reefs,
and suffered some damage. One patch
on her armor represents hole torn
by Pittsburgh, while another was
caused by Washington and Lee. The
only basis for comparison through
scores between the Army and Navy is
by the games played against Wash
ington and Lee. The Army beat the
Generals by a score of IA to 7, while
the Navy lost, 10 to O..
Yet hope for Navy victory on Sat-
urday runs high. The Middies have
shown indications of great power in
some of the games, but it was crude
| power. AS the season advanced Lieu
tenant Ingram got the boys together,
and in the game against the North
Carolina Agricultural and Mechanical
College, Navy showed Just how pow
erfuI it's team was. Last year the
Aggies defeated the Navy; last week
they never got the ball beyond mid
field The attack was fierce, cohesive,
well conceived and admirably exc
outed. The line stood like a bull
wark, and the waves of the enemy s

RUSH QUITS PRINCETON.

AS the result of failure to beat
either Yale or Harvard in two years,
Coach Speedy Rush will probably lose
his job as coach at Princeton. 1t is
said he will be succeeded by steve
McClave, who was a star in 1893,
1900 and 1901. Jim Conney and Eddie
Hart of Princeton gridiron fame, are
also mentioned.
There is no criticism Of Rush as a
man but he was brought to Princeton
to put the eleven on a winning basis
and he did not do it. So his head
must go into the basket. McClave
is said to have made good record as
coach at Adelphi Academy in Brook
lyn, N. Y. Rush's friends claim he
could not do himself justice because
his material consisted of veterans who
had been to taught different system
and could not learn anything new.
