New-York tribune., 1919-11-22


The report that Braden probably
would not start seems to be another
one of those good old d-fashioned ru-
mors. The former captain of artillery
worked out at Soldiers Field to-day
when the Yale team went in for a short
practice. Kempton's shou. der is still
botherlng him but it is certain he will
start.
The Yale undergraduates are certain
chat kempton will show some of his
real dash tomorrow. They have faith
IN their tlashy quarterback, despite the
TACT that the impression mas gone
forth that kempton lost the Princeton
game by misplay. 1t was not Kemp
cons Iault that the game was lost.
On the showing OF the teams against
Prnceton the dope seem. to favor Har-
yard, but plenty Of good dope has been
dyIamlted this season. Both Yale and
Harvard have husky teams, inclined to
old-iashioned football and those who
gather at Soldiers Field tomorrow are
quite likely to see a close and gruelling
battle.
Must Stop Eddie Casey
The main reliance OF Harvard is, of
course, In the cnance of Eddie Casey
getting TIM ough. he got through just
once against frlnce,on, and it nearly
meant the whole distance. At other
times, though, The Tigers seemed to
have the faculty of stopping the feet
Harvard back before he got fairly
starred. 1Ee question is: Can the
fairy sluggish ale team do this with
their slower defense"
tv>n ,ne mot loyal Yale adherents
are inclined 20 admit that the big Blue
team 0iayed pretty bad football against
Prlnceton. 1t seemed to be a dis
astroEsiy off day at Yale. This hap
pe4ls ol.eA 10 individual athletes and
-eanls. One is inclined to accept the
view that Iaie was not at its best last
Saturday, for if the Princeton game
is the best football that Yale can play
Harvard shogld win tomorrow, for
Harvard showed in the latter part of
the Princet. came that the Crimson
eleven could play the modern game
when it had to.
Yale, on the other hand, in the
battle with Princeton revealed moth
ing Bot conservative and old-fashion
football. Tie Blue eleven tried the
at Aro, = place and it was the
wierdest forward pass that has been
seen IN iootDa | this season. Doping
the eievcns on the Princeton game
alone, 1ale's chances would not appear
70 hc % bright.
But Yale elevens, with the figures
against them in the past, have shown
that they could muster that something
else shat is more potent than arth-
metic and favoring dope. 1t might
happen in the field at Cambridge to-
morn ow. Al any tate, to a neutral and
an outsider there always remains the
consolation that whatever the score
may DE he viii see a battle.
$4,000 to See Tussle
They expect to seat something like
$1,000 peop.e in the Stadium at Sol
diels' field Tomorrow Even with ad-
ditionai seats and stands there will be
SOM disappointed o.d grads who will
not see the game.
TIE demand lOr seats for the foot
bah class ,his ear has exceeded that
Of all previous years. Practically no
seats were available for the general
public. All tie fraternity houses and
clubs were filed tonight with Yale
ard Harvard men OF new and old
vintages. 1t wa the first dry year of
Yale Harvard old gadding, consequent
ly it was ouieter thar t. G meetings Of
the older and more riotous days.
After to-rlorrow tn teams will
break training and disband for the
season. This ceremony will also be
dry and orderly affair this year.
