Tigers Will Be Ready to
Gipe Harvard Good Fight

night, but his general attitude does not
seem TO be as discouraged as the meagrc
margin OF the Tigers victory would lead
one to expect Whether this Is only be-
cause OF his customary optimism or for
definite reasons. one can only conjec-
ture. Opinion here seems to be that al
though Yale's margin OF victory over
the Southerners was much bigger than
the Tigers, tho local coach at least ac-
complished his purpose In saving his
best men. namely. Lourie. Scheerer and
Wittmer. and winning in spite OF the
absence OF these stars. II has certainly
been easy TO see by following last
weeks daily workouts that Roper's pro-
grumnle of practice was one distinctly
in preparation for Harvard aad not
against West Virginia. Princeton wanted
To keep her seasons record clean and
also to avenge last years defeat at the
hands of the Mountaineers, but not at
the expense VI weakening herself for
the battle at Cambridge this week. Don
Lourie was not even in Princeton last
Saturday. as he went up to Boston and
watched the Crimson perform.
1t appeared In the Stadium yesterday
that the Nassau coach wanted to win
at straight football IL possible. partly
because the locals need practice in this
wished to disclose none OF his tactical
secrets to the Harvard and Yale OBJ
servers in the stands. In this the
Princeton Instructor failed. for the at
tack from straight scrimmage of his
charges was not enough to sew up the
game, and the open style of play had
to be resorted to at whatever cost to
future chances.
Although the passing game went none
too we'll yesterday for the locals, n
comparison OF actual statistics shows
that Princeton had a definite edge on
the invaders just the same. In spite OF
the fact that Roper has spent little time
in definite preparation for the Virgin
ians, the home team defense against
their famous passing game was deadly,
the visitors not completing a single pass
out of eight attempts. while Roper's men
got away with 2 out OF Z. Princeton
was superior by q large margin on line
bucks, advancing Isl yards by this
method to the SIS made by their oppo-
nents.
Murrey's punts did not quite equal
what Joe Scheerer's would probably
have been. but his average distance Of
AZ yards was enough to smother BeclS's
average OF SO. On fumbles and penal
ties the locals showed to great disad-
vantage, dropping the ball three times
while the visitors made no errors, and
losing so yards on forfeits to the Is
suffered by their rivals. The Princeton
players got revenge for this 70 n GER
tain degree by the ground they gained
ON intercepted passes. Martin was not
sufficiently wary in his aim, and the
locals gained IS yards on passes taken
from his hands, while West Virginia
made n meagre three.
In short, the chief characteristics OF
Princeton's team OF yesterday were bet
ter interference and team work by the
forwards. slipshod tackling at crucial
moments. brilliant individual perform
ances by Clarity and Murrey. doubtful
judgment by the latter in his choice Of
plays. and a bad slump in the aerial
attack.

NJ. Y. u. HOPEFUL
OF BEATING TRINITY
Cargan Expects to Score
First Victory of Season.

The New York University eleven has
rounded into fine shape for Its first
home game tomorrow afternoon at Ohio
Field with Trinity College. After suf-
for,ng an unexpected defeat last Satur-
day at the hands OF Hamilton. the Vio-
let squad came back strong this past
week,( aided by the return OF several
veterans who had recovered from in
juries and showed renewed vigor in it's
practice scrimmages that filled Coach
Gargan with not little confidence and
satisfaction.
In spite OF the fact that New York
has not yet registered single victory
this season the Violet has played good
football and has lost Its games BY close
scores Gargan is anticipating an easy
victory for his team tomorrow as q
result Of the very favorable improve
ment the team has made in the past
week in tine strengthening OF the for
ward wall. and also because of the In
dication of vtrtory which a consdera-
ton of comparative scores leads one to.
Trinity College has been defeated in
every one OF its starts this reason, md
some Of its reverses have been by rather
large scores. IL has failed to score II
touchdown against It's three opponents
and has had 100 points rolled up against
her. Columbia set Trinity back by q
score OF Il to 0, Wesleyan by score
Of 81 to 0. and last week Benny Boyn-
TOMS Williams eleven gave tho DOWN
trodden Hartford aggregation bad
beating BY the score of sc 10 0. Two
weeks ago New York held Wesleyan to
1913 tic and then missed winning
tho game when a goal from touchdown
failed to go over the crossbar. This
fact alone gives New York confidence
that on easy victory IL In store for
them tomorrow.
The Violet line, which has made such
progress during the past week. was adj
ditionaily bolstered by the return Of
Right End Levin. who had broken n bone
In his hand against Wesleyan two weeks
ago. Levin Is powerful factor In the
Violet defence and is an adept handler
Of forward passes IN addition TO his abil-
lty 60 sft through opponents lines and
make accurate tackles. Hisreturn means
that Gargan viii have his line intact for
the FIRST time this season. and as q result
greater results are expected both from
the line and the backneld. Brin, the vet

jured In the Hamilton game last Satur-
day. Welnheimer's absence undoubtedly
will be felt In the Violet bacsneld, but
the Improvement In the line and the
weakness Of the opposition expected
from Trinity Will probably offset his TOM

be seen McCran. youngstcr who showed

AMSTERDAM. Oct. 31.--The American
system of athletic training which cul-
minated in many American victories at
the Antwerp Olympic games Is now be-
ing subjected throughout Europe TO a
great deal Of scrfticism, favorable and
unfavorable. As an example,. there are
some members of the Holland Olympic
committee who consider Holland should
adopt American methods in it's universi-
ties and athletic clubs. others charge
that such long, intensive training makes

At O. recent meeting Of the committee
one speaker went 80 far as to question
the amateur standing of the American

Cipp of Notre Dame Is
Remarkable Half Back

n UR first ALL American candi-
date of the season ia George
Gipp. liz pounds of eemark-
able halfback, whose work for
Notre Dame was the biggest factor
in the victory over the Army last
Saturday. Gipp played the great
est individual game seen at West
Point since the afternoon when Jim
Thorpe OF the Carlisle Indians de-
feated the Cadets single handed
and single footed.
An idea OF the great work done
by Gipp may be gained from fig
ures. He gained a total of 124
yards from scrimmage. We do
not count the gains for which he
was responsible with his throw
ing of the forward passes. which
gave Notre Dame a total of 96
yards. Gipp ran back punts end
kickoffs for total OF 112 yards.
So in ali he made 2S6 yards--quite
q days work. The Army could not
stop this man.
Walter French of the Amy, who
made runs OF 60 and 81 yards, the
longer one for touchdown, was
another great star.
