YALE-ARMY TICKET
 SALE REACHES 65,OOO

New Haven. Oct. 20-Yale has. sold more than 1000 of the 70, 000 seats in the Bowl for the West Point game on Saturday. The game will start at 2:30 and the frills will get underway at o'clock, according to announce ment today.
 Ya1e's final football scrimmage practice yesterday before the West Point game was held when two elevens were hurled against the scrubs, who were unable to hold either varsity aggregation in check.
 The scrubs were held on downs four times and did not invade varsity territory during the afternoon. The regulars shot six touchdowns over the scrub line, Jack Speiden getting two and Captain Aldr1ch, Jordan, Neidlinger and Beckett one apiece. The varsity used straight line attacks, indicating that Yale is planning to hurl old-fashioned football at the Cadets on Saturday. The first team lineup yesterday. which was an- nounced as the probable combination against West Point, follows:
 Left end, Blair; left tackle, Hidden; left guard, Cruikshank; center, Lam dis; right guard, Guernsey; right tackle, Dfller; right end, Denver, quarterback, Beckett; left half back Captain Aldrich; right halfback, Mallory; fulIback, Jordan.

strong hold on MT. Whitehead. He is always impressed in the never-say- die spirit of the players who are striv- ing to win although the obstacle of an overwhelming score may be against them. Good players always sheir team is on the local score end of a struggle.
 Proper Training for layers.
 The weekend crop of accidents made it appear to MT. Whitehead that players on some of the younger teams are not properly trained for a gruelling struggle, and miShapS are bound to occur. He said he doubted that some of our high school elevens got into action without thorough preparation, and he urged that coaches give special attention to the physical preparation of their athletes as safeguard against accidents.
 A fellow properly trained will arnerge from the contest with less contention of MT. Whitehead. He said instructors cannot be too care- fu1 upon the restrictions put upon players and see thi:at they are carried out. It is evident, he said, that if a fellow is not in good condition he is likely to get hurt. Mir. Whitehead cited several cases which has come under his observation.
 A fellow who is trained can stand the hard knocks better than the fel- low who isn't, said MT. Whitehead. MT Whitehead also said he is an ad- vocate of distinction between high school and football classes
 MT. Whitehead is also a basebal Il fan of the thirty-third degree, but the conversation revealed he is slight ly inclined toward the grand old gridiron pastime.

 Jack Delaney has supplanted Louis Bogash as the Bridgeport A. & A. asset, according to Fritz Musante. Delaney will be made an offer to appear here in ring in the near future against Bert Colima, Johnny Howard, or some other worthy opponent in the middleweight class.
 Following this bout Bogash will have an opportunity to meet Delaney in a fight here.
 Johnny Red Allen, who is booked to meet either Mickey Donley or Johnny Dundee at the Pioneer Club, will likely be matched to battle Sailor Johnny Darcey in a return match in the headliner of the next show in November.
 Delaney is Conner.
 Jack Delaney is the coming cham p1on, declared Musante. "Ever since Bogash got a reputation at inc expense of the Bridgeport A. & A.. he has been dictating terms, but the worm has turned. Delaney, today;-I consider to be the best drawing card in Bridgeport and we are going to give him every chance to ascend the ladder to the middleweight crown. Bogash has. entered the middleweight class and if he stills thinks he is a fighter he can be accommodated with a match with Delaney before his home town folk. Such a bout will determ- inc who is the best boxer Delaney is a splendid chap and we are going to give him every chance. After a couple of bouts we will attempt to stage a bout between Delaney and Mike O'Dowd, Johnny Wilson or Bry- an Downey.'
 Musante said soon as Al Jennings returns from Providence negotiations will begin to have Delaney appear in several star bouts here during the cold weather season.
