New-York tribune., 1920-10-22

When the Annapolis students lost to-
North Carolina State several of the
regulars were out of the lineup, not
having returned from abroad. This
IS not by way of detracting from the
Southerners' victory; it is quite proba
bic the result would have been the
same. But the fact is the regulars
meaning King, Even, Waters and
Cruise, are now in the lineup and by
this time Bob Folwell has had a chance
TO mould his eleven into a formidable
team.
BY this time also Bill Roper has
definitely settled on just who is who
on his squad, and the lineup that
starts against the Navy, barring in
lurles, is quite certain to start in the
Harvard and Yale contests Thus we
in which good football should be dis
played.
Nassau Has the Edge
The Navy will encounter team that
is FAST on the otfense and sound and
efficient in defensive tactics. The
Tigers, in turn, will be sure to meet
nard-playlng, scrappy crew, whatever
.ha:T other qualities or faults may be-
At this moment it appears as though
the Nassau students have the edge, but
IN this kind of game almost anything
may happen.
1t is not likely that the Orange and
Black Will find such a compact playing
Lean as that which Dobie constructed
and which dealt defeat to the Army last
wear. Folwell is sure to spread his
defense more and probably he will not
depend wholly on the direct pass from
which to run his plays.
The former Pennsylvania mentor
also is certain to insIst on his charges
using the forward pass as often as
necessary # not more frequently
Dobie had the reputation of teaching
q good forward pass game, but either
because it was wet day or because it
was not needed, the fact remains the
sailors made little use of the aerial
attack in the Army game. Folwell, too
IS mighty good instructor in the use
Of the passing game. and believes in
1T as we'll. He also IS strong for the
Kicking game, which Dobie is not.
Spectacular Game Promised
Princeton in it's combat with Wash
lngton and. Lee last week showed
strong passing game as we'll as a good
running. attack. If the midshipmen
dents used to under Folwell, it will be
fast and snappy and mostly over the
line, the most effective way of making

more to the ends.
Therefore, the spectators are likely
to witness one of the most spectacu-
lar games of the year, struggle in
which considerable open play-that is,
wide end running and forward passing
Will be put on. The tackling is sure
to be hard and sure, knowing the Navy
spirit and having seen Princeton.
The Tiger line will probably out

IL won't charge any faster The Navy's
star tackle will be opposed to Keck, and
it Will be interesting to note this little
side show, although the Tigers depend
mostly on travelling end taking the

On the whole, though, it seems to

secondary defense is beyond reproach.
The Tigers, it seems to us, have the
