COLGATE TEAM
 LIKELY ID BEAT
 PRINCETON SAT.

New York, Oct. 22.-Following its impressive victory over the University of Rochester eleven Princeton is striving diligently to prepare for the first rugged test of the gridiron cam paign against Colgate at Tigertown next Saturday.
 CoIgate's decisive triumph over Cornell on Saturday served to stren- gthen the belief that the Maroon con- tingent is one of the most formida- ble of the autumn. Colgate last veal was something approaching a world beater, but there is every reason to believe it is even stronger, especially on attack, than in 1918.
 Princeton showed such improve rnent in it's game with Rochester that Bill Roper and his aids are sanguine the Orange and Black will defeat the Colgate array principally by the strength of the Tiger attack. Prince ton uncorked an assault against Ro- chester on Saturday that had both speed and power in abundance. An other week of priming should get the Tiger eleven in fine condition for its first big test of the season.
 The Tigers showed some weakness  mostly during the second half after Roper had sent a number of substi- tutes into the fray. Particularly were the Tiger subs guilty of fumbling in taut situations, but Roper is taking especial pains to remedy this short coming for the struggle with Col gate.
 Colgate's victory over Cornell by a score of 21 to was so decisive that no question can be raised as to the power of Larry Bankharts team. It is on the high road to big achieve ments, and, next to Pittsburgh, ap- ven of the year.
 Cornell on Saturday that promises to give Princeton abundant trouble if the same speed anu punch be main- tained against the Tigers. Anderson, the Maroon quarterback, in particu- lar was the star of the Cornell game, and there is every reason to believe he again will shine against the Tigers. Anderson is the handspring of Col gates assault. He not only dissects the play, but frequently carries the ball on sweeping end runs. 1ze stands fate stars today.
 LII tllei eiIlIoie t, COiSdIe ChlIie@ e' iol = ward line of considerable strength both on defense and attack. The big maroon line held sound against the Cornell onslaught at every turn on Saturday. Frequently the Ithacans charged at various points, usually off tackle bucks, but the Colgate line was a wall of steel and concrete off which Cornell smashes rebounded like hail stone off tin roof.
 The Colgate line, more than any of the other early season contests, will afford a definite idea concerning what progress Princeton has made thus far. and what chance the Tigers will have against Yale. If Colgate wins deceisively there will be little chance indeed for the Tigers in the annual battles with the Blue and the Crimson.

FORDHAM TO RESUME BASKETBALL PLAYING

New York, Oct. 22-BasketbalIw will be resumed as a major sport at Ford ham University tE.s year, according to an announcement made last night by Sylvester A. Dineen. president of the athletic associa ton. This deci- sion was reached at a recent meeting of the Alumni Athletic Council, and it has just received the approval of the faculty.

 The squad will be in charge of Ar thur Devlin, who is also the baseball coach. The latter will be assisted by Frank Frisch. the Giants third base man and famous Fordham athlete. The present outlook for a formidable five is particularly bright, as i 0 or 12 former high school stars are stu dents in the various departments.
 Manager Thomas Curran is now preparing his schedule, and tenta- tive dates already have been arrang- ed with c Georgetown, Catholic Uni versity c. C. N. Y. St. Johns, Colum- bia, Cathedral.

HANNIBAL WINS
 THRILLING RACE
 AT EMPIRE CITY

New York, Oct. 22-R. T. Wilson's Hannibal ran truly brilliant race in picking up 125 pounds and win ning the New Rochelle Handicap at the Empire City track, near Yonk- CTS yesterday. He ran the mile and a sixteenth in the fast time of 1.45 4-5, and appeared to be well in hand over every foot of the journey.
 Buddy Ensor, who has just re- turned from the Latonia meeting had the mount on Hannibal, and while he had to do little more than sit still to beat Drummond, which was the only one of the other three starters that could keep pace with the son of Olambala, his horseman- ship was noticeable in that Hannibal showed no signs of sprawling in the stretch, as he did in winning the westchester Handicap last Saturday.
 Jimmy Butweu and Clarence Hummer continued their neck-and- neck struggle for the gold stop watch Each earned seven points during the afternoon. Butweu with two seconds and a fourth, and Kum- mer with a, first and a third. The latter still leads by two points, the totals being 78 to 76.
 Coming to the last race, Butwel1 had taken the lead and was three points in front, but Hummer rode Father Bi1l' Da1y's Peerless One to victory in the closing number, and so regained the lost ground. Both boys have a big following, and in- terestf in their race for the jockey honors of the meeting grows each day.

HARVARD WORKS
 HARD ID BUILD
 STRONG ATTACK

Cambridge, Mass, Oct 22-WhiIe giving full value to the punch that the varsity developed in scoring an early touchdown in the Brown game last Saturday, the Harvard football coaches continued to impress on the eleven yesterday afternoon that a game is four periods long.
 To drive home this idea, the vars ity was withheld from regular scrimmage and for the greater part of the afternoon was set at work getting smoothness into the running game.
 For years Harvard teams have been noted for their fine work in of fensive assignments and it is in order to get more cohesion that Dr. Fisher is spending so much time plugging at fundamentals.
 The varsity line has been un- changed. but with Ralph Horween and Casey out a new back field com binatton is being developed with Humphrey. who has been put last in the tandem, Burnham and Arnold Horween. Burnham was rated as the best of the backs to hit the line in Harvard's regulation attack and was making good when hurt a few weeks ago. He is again ready to take his chances in the everyday workouts and returns at about the right time.
 A. Horween has at last begun to come up to expectations. He was rated a great back as a freshman and as leader of the informals, and his sudden burst of good play is welcom- ed by the Cambridge coaches.
 Eddie Casey's ankle is no longer causing any worry, although he will most likely be held from any play until next week. He was on the field but liTnping.
 On the side lines with Casey was Church, his substitute, who has in jured a leg muscle and is not ready to stand any banging. Ralph Hor- ween expects to get back into the play soon, but the team doctors state that he underestimates his injury and cannot think of even trying to play for three weeks.

FOOTBALL GETS BIGGER CROWDS.
 THAN IN PAST

New York, Oct. 22.-Predictions made so frequently before the start of the football season that the grid iron game would come back with a popularity greater than ever before are being verified. The belief was based on the experience of major lea que club owners, who found the ma ton sport hungry after the war, and now the colleges are getting their share of an enthusiasm for sporting contests that was curbed to such an extent by the great conflict. When the curtain is rung down on the great intercollegiate sport at the end Of next month it Is quite likely that all the colleges will have passed all pre- vious attendance marks for football
 Reports from various centres of foo tbau activity on Saturday last run along in similar strain. The largest early season crowd in Cornell grid iron history gathered at Schoelkopf Field to see the Tthacans battle with Larry Bankart's great Colgate ma chine, and at Hanover about 4,500 saw the game between Dartmouth and Penn. Comparatively, his figure Is dwarfed by the attendance marks at some of the college games, but it must be rem embered that little Han over, up in the New Hampshire hills, boasts a population of less than half the number of the fans at this parti- cular game.
 At the Harvard Stadium the at- tendance was estimated at 23,000, and and Crimson was playing an eleven that had bowed the week before to Colgate, II to 0. If Brown had been regarded as a real strong team, capa- ble of taking the measure of Bob Fishers crimson jerseyed warriors, the attendance would have run close to SG,000- Such a turnout as that of Saturday. with the calibre of the op- position taken into consideration, was undreamed of a few years ago, even in such a hotbed of football interest as is Boston. Brown has given Har- yard many a hard fight, and an oc- casional defeat, but the Brunonians of 1919 hardly classed Saturday as real dangerous combination.
 The Yale-Boston College game drew 10, 900 football followers to the Yale Bowl, a remarkable turnout when one harks back to five or six years ago when there was only one such gath ering before the big games with Har- yard and Princeton in November. Brown was the only early season op- ponent that could draw 5000 per sons to Yale field, where games were played before the Bowl was built. Boston College meant nothing in Yale football tradition up to Saturday last. though it means something now. It was the first appearance of the Hub aggregation in New Haven, and as Cavanaugh's team had been beaten, IT to 0. by Harvard it was not rated

HOPPE DEFEATS YAMADA;; PLAYS
 SUTTON TODAY

New York, Oct. 22.-For those who a real battle in the National 1S:2 Balk- line Billiard Championship Tourna- ment, the last 1ickering hope died out in the grand ball room of the Hotel Astor last night. The champion de- feated Koji Yamada almost as easily and decisively as he had dispored of Welker Cochran on Monday night, and today is the only undefeated player in the quest for the 18:2 title. Schaefer, Cochran, Sutton, Yamada, and Norningstar have all won one and lost one game, and Slosson has lost both his starts.
 The result of yesterdays matches follows: In the morning game. Yam ada defeated Slosson, 400 to 249; in the first game in the afternoon, Coch- ran defeated Morningstar, 400 to 122: in the second afternoon game, Schae- fer won from Sutton, 400 to 265, and in the evening Hoppe defeated Yam ada, 400 to 120.
 Yamada, having drawn bye in the first days play on Monday, was com ipelled to play two games yesterday. Today Sutton will have to play twice. He will meet Cochran in the after noon and play Hoppe in the evening. The match between Hoppe and Va mada was virtually a repetition of the playing between Hoppe and Cochran.
 Yamada managed to make Il more points against the cham pion than did Cochran and displayed some sensa- tional masse shots, but that is about all that can be said for his playing. He was outclassed by just as great a
 margin as was Cochran, and today .tdoppe seems to have the tournament seWed up. His cue appears to domi- nate the field, and, unless one of the greatest billiard upsets in recent years is scored, Willie will come through with flying colors.

U, s. BOXERS SAIL MONDAY
 FOR SWEDEN

New York, Oct 22.-The date of sailing for the American amateur boxers who will tour Scandinavian countries has been set definitely.
 Benjemin Levine, local amateur box | ing official, who will accompany the itrio of fistic stars, said yesterday that the athletes would sail Monday on the Stayang ngerford of the Norwegian
 American Steamship Company. Le-
 vine made his announcement follow ing a telephone conversation with representative of the steamship com pany.
 It is expected that the boxers will land on the other side about Nov. , or s. This would give them a few days to get acclimated before they engage in their initial foreign bouts, which are scheduled for Nov. g at Co., penhagen.

KEMPTON DOES
 FINE WORK IN
 YALE PRACTICE

New Haven, Oct. PA week of hard scrimmage started yesterday with the Yale football team lined up against the second varsity and then Dr. Bulls second scrub team. The second varsity was beaten by the big team by 10 to 0.
 KemQton, making his first appear ance in a scrimmage as first strin g quarterback, turned in a feature af- ter the seconds had succeeded in talk ing the ball to the varsitys 10 yard line. He picked up Hoyts tumble and, dodging tackIers in a brilliant flash of his open field running, ran the length of the field for touch down. Paul Crane, who went in to replace Bob Lay at right half. kicked the goal.
 Later in the scrimmage, after two exchanges of punts, the varsity backs brought the ball beyond the centre of the field and Jack French booted forty yard field goal. After this scrtmmage the vars1ty's defence abil- tty was tried out with the second the ball time and again between the 25 and 10 yard lines but succeeded in getting only one touchdown, when Grieb went around end for ten yard quarterback run.
 Allen and Reinhardt, the varsity ends, were given a rest and were re- placed by Graham and Storrs.
 Acosta, who was tried out at tackle yesterday, went back to guard, and Ga1ven struck at centre, Callahan being still out of shape
 Walker came back to the game at right tackle and Kirkpatrick relieved Dickens at left tackle in the latter part of the scrimmage. Although Kirkpatrick was a valuable sub tackle on Blacks team in 1916, he had not been in the first string line for three weeks

ROUSH TAKES HITTING
 LEAD FROM HORNSBY

Official announcement by Presi- dent HeydIer of the National League, shows that Eddie Roush Of Cincinnati and not HornSby of St. Louis, is the leader in batting in the National League for the season of 1919. Roush's average Is .32O, but Hornsby was stated In unofficial averages, to have batted .322. Investigation showed that there was an error in checking up a game in Pittsburgh, where Hornsby was given credit for Inal<- ing hree hits, although he did not get u hit. Hornsby will rank second to Rcusll with an average of .316.

New York. Oct 22-Every Prince tonian knows Sam White. Next to President Wilson. Sam is probably the best known of the New Jersey university graduates. And why shouldn't he be? Sam White was the man who single-handed beat Yale and Harvard in 1911.
 Sam had an eagle-eye for fumbles on the gridiron. Woe to the team that miscued with Sam hanging around. Princeton met Harvard first that year, on Nov. i. An attempted Harvard punt was blocked. Sam, playing end, dashed in, scooped up the leather and was off on a 95-yard journey to touchdown and victory

 returned from France, will soon re-
 sume his ring career, which he abandoned tw, years ago.. Donovan
 is in excellent Shape and Is ready to meet the formidable men of his weight 15S pounds. Before he joined the

SOLDIERS MAKE
 SIXTY MILLION VISITS TO Y.M.C.A.
Stupendous Figures Given Out by Southern Department 'Headquar- ters-ReIIgious Meetings
 Popular.

Stupendous figures showing some thing of the activities of the Army Young Mems Christian Association in the Southern Department during the year ending April 30, 1919, have just been compiled at Southern Depart ment headquarters at San Antonio, Tex. The Southern Department en- braces the states of Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Louisiana, New Mexico and Arizona, and according to the figures submitted to Executive Secretary H.. Fl. Simmons by Business Secretary L.. c. Williamson, the total attendance at r. M. 0. A. buildings during the year was 60,212, ,823-or equivalent to more than half the population of the United States. Statistics are based on daily reports covering each of the 365 days during the year just closed.
 A most remarkable showing is made by the religious work department, a very positive refutation of the claim on the part of some people that the soldiers dodge religious services. Dur ing the year, according to the report, there were 1902 religious meetings with an attendance of 2,719,719. The movies, with a total of 10,997 show ings, had an attendance of 3,e14,681. By way of explanation, it is said that it Is only fair to admit that many re- ligious services were held immediately after the movies, thus getting the bene- fit of the movie audiences. It is well known that motion pictures draw at- tendance as no other amusement fea- ture.
