.GRIDIRON SEASON
 ! TO OPEN SEPT. z
Yale Will Not Start However
 Until October 4.

Among the unqueStioned blessings resulting from the close of the war is the return of college sports. At this time of the year the chief interest in the collegiate athletics naturally turns toward the gridiron. It has been years, or so it seems, since we have had any real OId-time, Deppery college football games. So when September 24 Is chalked off on the calendar and We know the old pigslxin is due to be booted about various stadiums for some weeks it will bring joy to the heart of the followers of this great college sport. The cheers of the base ball fans will be ringing in the air, we know when the opening battles take place on the various football fields but With the passing of October every college in the country, indulging in football, will be in full cry and base ball will be-on the wane.
 Harvard will play but one game away from the stadium-that will be the Princeton affair. To tackle the Tigers in their lair will be game enough, we figure, for the Cambridge men, for one season. Yale, likewise, plays but one game away and that will be the bi-annual trip to the Stad ium where the Crimson fighters turk. l pings together and journey to New Haven on Novembe 15 b try the feel t of the ground in the boWI-but that will be the only joy excursion that will take the striped warriors away from Princeton.
 Trinity our own local eleven, will valiantly do battle with Princeton at Princeton on October in the opening game of the year for the New Jersey university. Harvard plays Brown rather early, October IS, at the stad- ium and later at Providence. but with the exception of these two games and the clashes with Princeton, Tufts and Yale, the Crimson schedule does not look formidable. Yale, likewise, has but a few hard games
 Dartmouth will open the season at Hanover with Springfield Y. M. c. A. and with Penn State and Colgate due to play later at Hanover it would seem as if the Springfield business men would endeavor to have the two big games played at Springfield Dart mouth is a prime favorite up the river and would draw heavy with two such formidable opponents.
