Pedestrians Held Too Careless

To the Editor. The washinston Herald:
May ! comment on an editorial
of yours which appeared several
days ago. on the traffic situatior
in Washington.
Your statement was to the effect
that auto drivers kept their eyes
glued on the traffic polIcemsn- eA~-
ing no attention TO pedestrians
whatever. As one who has driven q
car in Washington for eight months
let me say that IL that statement
were literally true the casualty

where pedestrians are 80 careless.

of accidents 10 placed on the every
day, human auto driver. a. Il 10 IN

there ma ybe an auto approaching

to watch ten different things at

They sauater aimiessly before an

around, and the driver must rub q
few hundred miles OF his tires TO
avoid killing one OF washington's
pampered pedestrians. Should one
OF them act In New York as he does
here. he would not need . return

would mean nothing.
In conclusion let me suggest that
II the police department would pay
more attention 20 apprehending the
few reckless and careless drivers,
and stop prosecuting auto owners
who mean right with q thousand

Army Plans to Break Up
Aerial Offensive of Navy
West Point Cadets Hold An
other Intensive Scrir1nage.

Special Despatch to THE NEW YORK HERALD.
WEST POINT, N. Y, Nov. 22-An-
other intensive scrimmage session,
longer than Mondays. was the pro-
gramme of the Army eleven to-day in
the continuation Of its final drive for
Saturdays gridiron battle In New York
with the Navy. A painstaking offensive
drill was followed by a lengthy session
on the defence against airline plays.
The midshipmen are thought to have
given considerable attention to the over
head game since their contest with Penn
State, and Army. remembering all too
we'll Notre Danes success with this sort
of an attack. is laying much stress on
the development of a defence to break
up the skyscraping offensive of the
middies.
During the varsity's offensive drill
there were frequent interruptions i'm the
advance toward the scrubs goal line,
for the perfecting OF details was upper
most In the minds OF the mentors and as
a consequence there was no scoring.
Wood and McLaren as halfbacbs, with
French at fullback and Wilhide at
quarter, made up one combination of
Army backs. Another, with Lawrence
and Warren as halves, Smythe at full
and Johnson at quarter, worked smooth
ly. There is considerable doubt as TO
which set Of backs will start against

GRAVE WILL START
IN PENN BACKFIELD
Coaches Decide on Outsider to
Begin Game Against Cor

Special Despatch to THE NEw YoRK HERALD
PHILADELPHIA. Nov. 22.-Little Babe
Grave, an outsider, has jumped into the
lead in the race for the vacant baclSfield
post on the Penn eleven. which Is to face
its crintical test Thursday afternoon
against Cornell on Franklin Field. The
former Woodbury. high school lad. who
tips the scales at only 1876 pounds,
sprang into prominence last season on the
scrub team when he often directed the
attack against tho regulars.
Just before the final drill to-day the
coaches decided TO start Grave rather
than Mike Whitehill, Al Voegelin Johnny
Lucas, Langdon, Wittmer Bobon or any
of the other candidates who were fight
ing for the extra berth.
Whitehill and Voegelin are slightly
impaired by injuries Although they do
not get the call to start the game they
are both expected to see much service
before the final whistle blows.
Another switch was made in the line
at the last minute. Frank Graf replacing
John Humes at one of the guard posts.
Humes. hard driving lineman who was
injured in a recent contest, fought hard
to regain position as one of the for
wards, but Graf's better physical condi-
ton gave him slight edge.
The team will not don uniforms to-
morrow. it being planned to take the
regulars on a short automobile trip ir

STANDING OF THE CLUBS.

AS a result of the defeat of the Mont
clair Athletic Club by the Princeton
Club yesterday Harvard Club remains
the only unbeaten team in the Metro
politan Glass B squash tennis champion
ship tournament. The New Jersey play
ers did not live up to their promise OF
last week, when in their first effort in
metropolitan competition they defeated
the Crescent Athletic. Club squad. They
dropped five out OF seven matches to
the sons of Nassau on the Princeton
courts II. V. Crawford and Frank Sell

The winners for Princeton Club were
John C. Neely, George A. Walker Jr. ;
A. NJ Kidder. A. d. Mittendorf and j.
NJ. Denlson.
1t must be said, however, that in two
of their losing matches the Jerseymen
carried their opponents to extra games
and left the result in doubt practically
to the final stroke. With little more
tournament experience the Montclair
players may be expected to extend the
strongest of the rival clubs before the
season closes.
