FOOTBALL IN EAST SATURDAY.
Big Schools Play weaker Teams
Tomorrow,

New York, Oct. S.-About all that
can be accomplished on the eastern
gridirons tomorrow will be to get the
spectators in a properly receptive
mood for the real features of the sea
son. There are nice little pieces, a
comedy or two. but not q thing that
can cause spasms.
The big three are to see action,
Yale's engagement with North Caro-
lima State having the flavor of an in
tersectional event. Princeton is to
meet Maryland and Harvard faces VAL
paraiso.
Penn state and Dartmouth are
about the closest to putting up q regu-
lar game. Pittsburgh is to entertain
West Virginia at Pittsburgh. The
game is of more than ordinary interest
because OF West Virginia's advance
ment in the last two years.
Lafayette and the Navy, Lehigh and
Rutgers and Brown and Maine are
eastern games that stand out as pos
sible producers of excitement. Center
college, the little Kentucky school that
astounded the football world last fall,
was to meet Howard college at Dan
Vile.
