more has a fast, aggressive team
Their line is not as heavy or strong
as Penn's line and i don't think the
ends will show up as well.
Wray, the diminutivs Penn captain,
and Geiges, the Swarthmore pilot,
are splendid men in an open field.
Either of them may get for a long
run, and both are dangerous at any
stage OF the game. The Swarthmore
backfield is a trifle heavier than tha'
OF Penn's. Ashplundh. the Swarth
more fullback is the best kicker I'm the
east. His kicking is going to be u
big help to the little Quakers. The
Swarthmore guards, while aggressive
and shifty. are rather light.
The Princeton game was, Of course,
real test for Swarthmore. II showed
Coach Mercer his weak and strong
points. Penn has had no real test.
The Swarthmore players take out
men beautifully. They were in fine
physical shape at Princeton two

first real test Penn will get and the
whole team will have to be on its

consider game experience most
important in developing a team after
the variety of offensive and defensive
style of play that Harvard has to
meet in its schedule. the players cer-
tainly ought to think and act quickly
in any contingency. Georgia is some
what of an unknown quantity. The
team will have to travel a long dis.
tance and while they may give Har-
ward a close game, 1 have no doubt
of the result.
Yale will have a comparatively easy
game against Williams. The Yale
schedule can be divided into three
distinct parts, Of which the game
with Williams IL the last Of the first
part. After Saturday. the Yale Of.

Penn State viii have to extend itself

helped me last fall, has charge at Le-
high. Click knows football from top

also from Princeton, are helping him.
The Penn State forwards will have to
be on the lookout all through the
game, or they will get fooled. as
Click is a great believer In delayed
plays.

Golf, handball and squash are 10 be
taken on In time, but the first move
will be with tennis. That does not
mean that Rutgers will abandon It's
other sports. Quite the contrary. IL
will continue them as usual and try
TO lit some OF the tennis men Tor some
OF the other games.
There In "A new program In football
at Rutgers. IL is due very likely TO
the installation OF a graduate manager
in athletics. Heretofore the conduct
ing OF football, including schedule
making and some other details, had
been left TO college managers. with
out experience. AS result games
were scheduled where there wasn't
the slightest chance that Rutgers could
meet expenses, and at salch remote
distances from New Brunswick that
the expense account was far too great
for a college TO bear. Even some OF
the big fellows would have been tim
orous at taking UP games which were
put on the Rutgers schedule.
Good for Expenses.
Moving along toward better ar.
rangement of things Rutgers has per.
fected a home and home football
agreement with Lehigh. Lafayette.
Swarthmore, New York University.
Stevens and West Virginia. That's
a capital football basis for the team.
To incur a mileage of say 1000
miles for one football game was dis
covered to be impractical. And by
the way, there Is greatly exag-
gerated idea about the profits in foot
ball except for the stand and games.
Yale and Harvard, and Princeton and
Pennsylvania do very well in football.
They play the classics OF the game.
The large receipts at their contests
have given many the idea that all
football attracts in like proportion,
just as the hackers of baseball leagues
which endeavor to break into the ter
ritory OF organized baseball take the
figures OF a world series as an index
to what baseball must be.
Alumni Supports 1t.
Football does not begin to attract
from the outside public as many
think. Without the alumni the re-
ceipts would be cut doubly and trebly.
There is still much to be developed
in the game as an attraction except
I'm those who are primarily interested
in the contests.
Yale, for instance, at a Harvard or
Princeton game could sell every seat
In the bowl by merely advising the
alumni that they could have twice or
The Washington times., 1921-10-14

three times more than they are al
lotted at present. There would be no
public sale nor any need OF one.
Al other games in which there is
not the interest that there IL In the
football fixtures Yale is fortunate
some times IL IL has 10000 spectators.
BY controlling athletics at Rutgers
through a system II Is the expectation
OF the advisory board that results will
be even better than they have been In
the past. The football In 1920 showed
a deficit, and that was largely due TO
an expensive schedule. There will be
no expensive schedules In the future.
There is no real necessity for them.
Coaches as q Pleasure.
George Foster Sanford Is one OF the
most unselfesh coaches in the country
probably the most unselfish, because
he goes TO Rutgers. develops team
from the material that they have
there. and does not charge the college
a penny. Few football coaches are as
generous as that. James II. Reilly In
structs In swimming, Frank Cox In
baseball, Carl q. Anderson on the
track, Frank Hill in basketball and
Albert A. Briscotu In lacrosse.
There Is a deficit I'm the fund Of the
athletic association OF more than ST.
900, but the Rutgers men are certain
that with new managemer. and the
experience they have gained they will
reduce It. The general plan of games
this year and in 1922 is expected TO
help toward the contamination OF this
purpose.
The Washington times., 1921-10-14


While both teams started play about
the same time, the Midshipmen are In
wonderful physical shape all year. In
the last two games, they haven't even
had to take time out, and have only
made substitutons to try out add.
tional players.
After the Princeton Navy game last
fall. very unfortunate article was
published purporting to be from Prince
ton sources intimating that the Nay
players were unnecessarily rough. i
want to take this opportunity emphat-
ically to d,saVow aI responsibility for
the statements contained in that arti-
Gle, and to deny them. The Navy
teams always play hard football. We
try to coach our players to do the
same. There is a vast difference be.
tween hard football and dirty football.
The Navy always puts UP a clean
game and their play against Prince
ton was no exception.
Last fall. there was very little to
choose between the play Of the two
teams, / don't think the Princeton
eleven is any better now than 1t was
at this time last year. and from what
/ can hear, the Navy team is slightly
more advanced.
Linemen Well Matched.
I should say the two lines from
tackle to tackle are about equal. The
Navy tackles, Bolles and King, are
veterans with considerable big game
experience. or course, / don't think
Keck and Hooper are a bit inferior.
The tackle play on both teams alone
ought to be worth going a long way
to see.
The Navy guards are big and power
full, Baker, of Princeton is probably a
trifle faster than either of the Navy
pair, while Morgan and Lipscomb are
not quite as quick.
Both the Princeton and the Navy
Centers play out of the line a good
part of the time and here again, two
very strong men will play against each
other.
The Navy line Is coached to play
the Pennsylvania style of defense.
They charge low and fast on every
play. A charging line is very diff
cult to handle If it gets the jump on
it's opponents. I don't anticipate
Princeton will gain very much
ground inside Of tackle. 1t Is about
a stand-off at end. ,,--
In man-for-man comparison, /
should say the Princeton back-field
Is more versatile than the Navy's and
Princeton will have a slight superior
ity in kicking. 1t looks as though the
Navy line would show a bit more ag-
gressiveness than the Princeton for
wards and more versatility because
the men are in better physical con-
dition. From this comparison, the
Navy has the edge In the line and in
condition, and Princeton in the play
of the backfield and in kicking. I
don't think / am far from the mark
when I say the game will be very
close.
Princeton's prospects for the Navy
game have been materially lessened
by injuries to Lourie and Garrity re-
ceived this week. While not seriously
hurt, both men will be out Of the line
up against the midshipmen.
