Date of Departure
For Coast Game

WASHINGTON, Pa, Dec. 7.-Wash-
ingtcn and Jefferson's football team
will leave here on Friday, December 23,
Tor Pasadena. where, on January 2, it
will meet the University of California
for the national collegiate football
championship. This was announced by
Manager R. M. Murphy after conferring
with the athletic counsel and the fac
ulty.
The chief reason for postponing the
departure of the squad until that time
is that the annual Christmas recess
does not start until that time. The
probability that the players might also
lose vitality in the Southern California
heat if there toe long before the con-
test figured in the decision.
The faculty formally gave acquies-
cence for the westward trip, which is
now definitely assured. Reports from
the West to-day stating that the Presi-
dents had agreed to play the Texas Ag-
gies on New Years Day at Dallas and
that the Red and Black was violating
an agreement in going to Pasadena
ger Murphy and President Baker wired
any kind.
W. and J.'s football team will again
play University of Detroit next season
at Detroit. This announcement was
made by Graduate Manager R. M. Muir
ply simultaneously with confirmation
of a report that the Presidents would
again go to Morgantown for Thanks
giving Day game with West Virginia
University. The date of the game in
the Michigan city has not been fixed,
but it will likely be played in October
some time

Heavy Grind
Two Yale Club
SquashP Players
In Serlli-Final
COrdier and Coward VIM;
Dana, Harvard, and Bull.
Crescent A. c., Also Lead

Two Yale club players, Auguste J..
Cordier and Thomas Coward; one Har-
verd club entrant, Anderson Dana, and
Charles M. Bull jr., of the Crescent
A. c., reached the semi-fnal round Of
the National Squash Tennis Associa-
Crescent A. G. courts yesterday. All
four survivors are among the first
eight in national rank, Cordier rating
third, Dana fourth, Coward seventh
and Bull eighth.
BY far the best squash tennis of the
tournament marked the play that mar
rowed the event down to the semi-final
ists The weaker players had been
eliminated in the earlier rounds, and
those who remained were close enough
in speed and skill to provide spectacu-
lar, hard-fought rallies.
The tusslc between Tom Coward, Of
the Yale club, and r. Earl Fink, Of the
Crescents, stood out as the most inter
esting Of the day. A year ago in the
same tournament Fink had beaten Cow
ard in q close match but the Yale man
reversed matters this time by score
o. 12-16, 15--4, i5-7.
Coward was in rare stroke. His recov-
cries at times were phenomenal and
after the first game his control was al
most unshakabie, Fink being compelled
to go at top speed to earn his points.
Coward set a whirlwind pace after
dropping the first game, and Fink. de-
spite his best efforts, was unable to
follow it successfully.
The Yale man smashed powerfully,
his best shot being straight drive to
the front wall that travelled so fast up
and down the court that the Crescent
man was unable to bring his racquet
into play for return.
Dana, Bull and Cordier managed to
win their matches in straight games,
but were extended in most of the rail-
lies. 1t will be Coward versus Dana in
one semi-final and Bull versus Cordier
in the other tomorrow afternoon.
They are to play for the best three out
Of five games.
The summary:

May Shift Army-Navy Contest
To Franklin Field Next Year
Heads Likely to
Choose Philadelphia if
Stands Are Enlarged
spec.a, Dispatch to The Tribune


ANNAPOLIS, Md, Dec. 7.-Though a
game between the football teams of
the Naval Academy and the University
of Pennsylvania, to be played at Phil
adelphia on October % next. is q strong
probability, the Naval Academy author
tiles still nave before them offers from
the University of Pittsburgh and
Washington and jefferson to play on
their home grounds next year. The
Navy team can take only one trip be-
sides that necessary for the Army
game.
The offers from the western Penn
sylvania institutions are on the basis
of home -and-home arrangement. 1t
is likely, however, that game with
Penn will be arranged, the academy
authorities being specially inclined
toward it as it is the alma mater Of
the head coach. Bob Folwell.
A considerable strain will be out
upon the Navy team at mid-seas on.
Georgia Tech plays at Annapolis on
October 2l, to be followed. probably, at
Pennsylvania. On November the
midshipmen meet Bucknell, and Penn
sylvania State plays here on November
II.
Philadelphia may be the battle-ground
of the Army and Navy elevens on No
vember rs next, provided the plans for
its enlargement are carried out in time.
The Navy will have the choice of loca-
tion next year, and looks with favor
on Philadelphia on account of the saw
ing in time and money on the trip from
Annapolis.
A triangular meet, with Harvard and
the University of Virginia as oppo-
nents of the midshipmen. will be the
big event of the Naval Academy field
and track season. Several other good
matches are being arranged.
