III Deatins the WearerS or the Orange
and Black, therefore, in the way they
did, 13 to 0, and ten first downs to none,
the middies gave wonderful exhibi-
ton. Their great victory entities them
70 first place for the time being, at
least. The Annapolis students still
have two very staunoh opponents in
Penn State and the Army to overcome
before they end their season. If they
win both of these contests, as well as
their other games, they will be in
commanding position when the curtain
is lowered on December /.
There are three other teams stepping
along impressively just behind the
Navy. They are Syracuse, Yale and
Lafayette The Eastonians have al
ready proved their worth by downing
the crack Pittsburgh outfit, and with an
array of stars appear 10 be headed for
u most successful season.
Hard Tests for Syracuse
Both Syracuse and Yale will meet
eXacting tests this week The Orange
coached by the heady and peppery little
"Chick" MeehaN, has come along bril-
liantly and without any apparent undue
exertion. But IN meeting Pittsburgh
the upstate eleven viii be facing the
hardest opposition on its schedule
The Panthers Will be in better shape
for the Syracuse game than they were
when they played Lafayette. For one,
Tom Davies, the captain and wonde rful
back, will be in the lineup. He was
injured when Pittsburgh played the
tastonians and gQt into the struggle
for only a short time.
The other member OF the Panther
eleven will also be in better condition
to meet the Salt City students. The
crafty Glenn Warner withheld most Of
his regulars in Saturdays game against
/ Cincinnati and you can rely upon it
he will leave nothing undone to defeat
! Syracuse, which IS one Of Pittsburgh 5
/ big rivals.
Tale's task next Saturday viii not be
so difficult as that of Syracuse. Never
( theless, the Els will get hard. rough,
rugged struggle from the West Point
ers and viii have to put on real
brand of football TO come through with
colors flying. The New Haven stu
dents got by the Williams game nicely
without having to show too much Of
whatever new stuff they may have.
O'Hearn Makes Good
This contest also marked the first
appearance of young Charlie O'Hearn,
star quarterback, as varsity pilot.
/ OHearn, who WAS i'll the first part Of
lHe season, mas DeeN IN only TWO Scrln-
images and it was thought he would not
be in proper condition TO play against
the cadets. His work this week will
harden him considerably and it is like
ly he will start against West Point. In
the short time he was in the game Sat
urday ne lived up to ali the good
things said about him.
We shall discuss the good points and
the defects of the Army's play in a
special story tomorrow.
Harvard is certainly not up to its
standard of last year or several pre-
vious years, as was proved by Satur-
days game with Georgia University.
This team is not as good as many 9TH
ers in the South and the Crimson, with
a real machine. should have won By q
/ bigger margin than 10 to 7.
Penn starting with an SO to victory
over Delaware has gone the other d.
rection so rapidly there is danger OF
the Red and Blue drifting to the rocks
Starting next Saturday the Philadel-
phians will meet real football teams
in Virginia Military, Pittsburgh, Lafa-
yette and Dartmouth. Looks like d
bumpety- bump road for Penn from now
on.
Columbia on Up Grade
Columbia is starting to show its rea
worth now. In defeating New Yorl
