be played away from the atmosphere OF
the college campus, paid coaches and
training tables, the work Of Blacks men
will be interesting. Brown, though de-
feated by Syracuse, is capable of good
ball and is possessed of redoubtsble
defence that should make even Charlie
Barrett step.

Dartmouth-meets team that has
shown an in-and-out tendency. At its
best Pennsylvania. with a deceptive
attack built around Howard Berry, has
the ability to show its heels to better
than the average college eleven. This
presumes that FOlwel's rather light
line will hold.
Dartmouth has played a steady. in
flexible game the entire season and has
scored two lustrous victories in its de-
feat Of West Virginia and Penn State,
each a top-notcher in the secondary
1917 brigade of elevens. The Green's de-
fence is particularly attractive, and II
u can hold Berry, as II did Rodgers, OF
West Virginia, the indications are that
the boys from the White Mountains

to be played upon Braves Field.
Pittsburgh May Repeat

very near being for the championship
Of the East. In it are two elevens that
have yet 70 taste defeat.
In the general style of it's attack and
rs UNMARRIED successes Pittsburgh has
been the most impressive eleven OF the
season. The Panthers have an unbrok-
en- string Of victories on their home
field that extends over a long period.
They are said TO be better at home
than abroad, which may have been ono
of the reasons contributing 70 their
unenviable showing against Pennsyl-
vanla at Philadelphia. With a line
averaging 200 pounds 20 the man in its
centre, and with rect backs Of the
Gougler, McLaren, McCarter type the
Smoketown eleven is qualified 70 meet
any team IN the United States as
favOrlte before the referees whistle.
Sol MetZger, working with small,
but tidy squad, has turned out team
az Washington and Jefferson which he
believes is stronger than the eleven
which last season lost only 10 Yale and
Pitt. This is the Presidents big game
and they have Bonded every effort 10
present a formidable eleven, which, In
a way, has everything TO gain and little
20 lose.

T. Dobie has imbued his men with

the Middies meet in Georgetown to-day
an undefeated eleven, a continuance or
the dashing attack they have showed in

Georgetown's secondary showed mex
cusable defects in its local game with
Fordham early this week.
