tender.
The rail- service from Baltimore again
proved faulty. and many OF the hardy
crowd who ventured out after the ces-
sation of thirty-six hour downpour
did not reach the course until the third
race was about to be called. The suns
rays barely mellowed biting winds and
the crowd endured another uncomfort-
able day.

Syracuse Faces a Battle.

Syracuse's sad experience against

Of beating Colgate with something to

The in and out eleven from Syracuse

Saturday or 1t may indulge in another
carnival of fumbling and hand the game

At any rate. what looked like runaway

Tigers Invited to Meet Coasts
Best at Pasadena on
January 1.
BY DANIEL.

We learned yesterday that Princeton's
football team had been invited to play
the best eleven on the Pacific coast in
the annual game at the Tournament OF
the Roses at Pasadena. Cal, on New
Years Day. If we mistake not, the
Tigers were asked to go last year. too.
but they declined, and the contest was
passed on to Harvard. The Crimson
met the University of Oregon eleven
and won by to 6.
If we understand the Princeton policy
on post-season games rightly, 1t will de-
cline the California invitation. 1t would
nike to play off that tie with Harvard.
but 1t Is not likely to make any trip to
the coast for a game in January.
If Princeton declines 1t seems likely
that Harvard once more will be asked
to make the trip. and that 1t, too. will
refuse. Just which team will represent
the coast In the New Years Day con-
test is not yet certain. The game be-
tween Stanford and California on Sat-
urday may clear up the situation.
The football game at the Tournament
of the Roses is quite an affair each New
Years Day and attracts about 10000
persons-as many as the field will hold
The number of applications always Is
triple the number of seats available.
Pennsylvania made the trip to Pasa-
dena for the game in 1917 and was
defeated by Oregon by II to 0. In 1916
Brown represented the East and was
defeated by Washington State, IA to o.
Eastern teams which make the trip are
under a severe handicap. the biggest of
which has to do with acclimation.
The New Years Day game usually is
played under a blazing sun. When
Pennsylvania met Oregon some of the
onlookers were overcome by the heat,
which hit the 80 degree mark. In New
York that afternoon we had extreme
cold and some snow. 1t Is also very
difficult to keep a lot of young players
in training up to January--even If they
are permitted a "furlough'' of about
two weeks

Princeton Eleven Asked
to Play in California
Prospects of Trip by
Tigers Not Roseate

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. II. - No
- decision has yet been made with
i regard to the Princeton eleven's
playing at Pasadena, Cal. on New
Years Day. William w. Roper, coach
OF the Princeton team, who lives here.
said tonight that he does not know
whether the official invitation has ar
rived. Roper added that nothing
would be done toward accepting the
invitation without consulting him.
From what can be learned here the
prospects at this time are against the
trip unless great pressure should be
brought TO bear. A graduate In touch
with football at Princeton said 1t
would be a big undertaking to keep
the squad in training and condition
for more than six weeks until New
Years Day and would also result In
seriously cutting into the studies OF
the students because of their long alb
sence from the university.

SIX Leading Quarterbacks.

We were discussing football and foot
ball players with squad of dyed in the
wool fans yesterday, and the question
arose. who are the six leading quarter
backs in the East? At first blush this
looks like an easy proposition, but once
tackled 1t becomes rather difficult. To
tell the truth, this has been a bad season
for quarterbacks. Neither Harvard nor
Yale have men VINO stand out Among
