FOOTBALL DATES
BADLY MuDDLED
EIevenS Have Not Yet
Made Full Schedule,

NEW YORK For the first time In
many years intercollegiate football sched-
ulcs. In the east at least. are In a badly
muddled condition. In past seasons the
ma jority OF tho college and university
arrangements completed their arrange
ments for the eight TO eleven games COM
posing the schedule not later than March.
The same system was followed this
spring but the declaration OF war caused
some OF the institutions to cancel all foot
ball games which action has complicated
the situation.
Forty Colleges Affected.
This Is particularly true OF Yale, Har-
ward. Princeton. Navy and Army. all OF
which scheduled contests with elevsns
from many parts OF the east, south and
middle west, AS a result OF this action
close to forty colleges lost one or mora
games and owing TO the uncertain condi-
tons prevailing at this time substitute
contests are hard to arrange. Included In
the list are Dartmouth, Carlisle. Lafay-
cite, Pennsylvania. Brown, Colby. Bow
doin. TUFTS. Maryland, susquehanna,
Holy Cross. Rutgers, Georgetown and
others.
According TO the fa,est announcements
many OF these colleges will be represented
on tne RrldlfOn tnls autumn ny elevens
but the managers will have TO await un-
I'll the opening Of fall terms before they
can be assured as TO Just what teams
viii fulfill their dates. In some cases II
may be necessary to entirely reconstruct
the playing schedules with here and
there an open date TO be filled In at the
last moment This phase OF the situation
viii be considered ut the conference OF
the National Collegiate Athletic associa-
ton TO be held In Washington Thursday,
August 2. and II is likely that there viii
be considerable schedule patching at that
meeting
Penny and Michigan Meet.
In the middle west conditions are In
better shape for II Ia generally under
stood that the conference colleges will
adhere closely to the playing dates ar
ranged earlier In the year. The smaller
institutions will also follow suit and so
fnr az local games are concerned there
will be less confusion than In the east.
What effect the war will ave upon tho
intersections contests planned some
months ago cannot be foretold at this
time. In some cases they are likely to
be played Pennsylvania and Michigan
win probably meet hut other similar
events ere almost certain to be can
celled. II may develop. however. that
new poirings viii be found advisable
especially II the games are played for
the benefit OF the Red Cross funds.
