Judging by this comparison, the uni
versity is to have one of the best track
teams in its history. The reason for
this is that the students arc turning
out in such large numbers for the
team. When the men of any university
decide that proper college spirit is
shown by getting out and working to
win place on the team, rather than
by sitting in the stands and roofing,
that university is on the sure road
to successful athletics.
There is too much talk about cheer
ing a team on to victory. One man,
who. by working hard to make the
team, either wins a place on 1t him
self or forces another man to break
records to keep him off, does moro
real good to that team than n thousand

SAYS THE ARMY TO THE NAVY: WAIT TILL NEXT YEAR!
By LoRRY A. JACOBS
l. E. A. Staff Correspondent

NEW YORK. Dec. 5-It's all over this year. But there's going to be royal tug O war next year, We're talking about the annual muss be- tween the Army and Navy. The Navy went and did it by crossing the Army line this year for lone touch down. thereby making the count eleven eleven.
 The sailors had to win three years in succession to do it, but they finally got the score evened up, the Army having been lOrding it over them for eight years-the longest time either team has ever held the supremacy in the number of games won.
 See Saw
 The Army and Navy began playing each other in 1890. In 1905 the Army had forged ahead three games. In 1912 the Navy managed to be ahead by two games and then the Army took the lead with a string of four straight victories And now comes the Navy back and finally ties the thing up again. both teams having won eleven games and tied one. So they're now getting ready for the big tussle that's to come off next year 10 see who's going to keep out in front.
 Squeeze Play
 This years contest between the two service teams was one Of the prettiest sights football fans have ever wit messed. The Polo Grounds were damned to the very limit. 50,0O0 get ting in some way, although there were but 45,000 tickets. And three times that many applied for tickets Two teams could not have been much more evenly matched up until the time French of the Army booted a miser- able punt ont of bounds and thereby started the Nay on the awy to port.
 And Next Year
 But just figure for yourself what it's going to be next year with both teams tied in the number of games won and the rubber as the prize for winning.
 Says Coach F'olwell:
 Next years clash between the Army and Navy is likely to be re-
 garded as a classic and it is probable that both teams will qo through the most gruelIing train ing ever known to football. if | never see any other football game [ certainly want to see that one" Said Coach Daly:
 It's going to be a great game next year. The Army and Navy will be fighting for supremacy after the score has been evened up and as great as the rivalry has always been it should be even greater next year."

 Scotty's three -bagger in the ninth with two men ont decided the game and left the Glendale club stranded on the short end of the score sheets.
