In the season. and that. though he
could be used in some games, no
chance is being taken of him sustain
ing further injury and of being kept
out of the service game. Navy people
fully expect to see him In the back
field Of the Army team on the 2sth.
II will be remembered that In last
years game the Navy had perfected a
defensive system that took such good
care OF French that he failed to make
any effective gains. French and his
colleagues are srnarting under this
fact, and design TO arrange plays for
him which will outgeperal the Navy.
Upon whether or not they can do this
may depend the outcome of the game.
In spite of the fact that the Navy
has a much better record so FAR than
the Army, the sailors will not be over
confident. The history of the games
is full of Incidents OF complete re-
versal of form In the final contest.

standard. Maj. Charley DAILY, coach

confidence in him remains undated.
In a large measure the teams viii
be the same In personnel as those
which opposed each other last year.
The service schools suffered least by
graduation of any of the big colleges.
The Naval Academy lost but three
regular players by graduation, and
was able to replace those from ex.
perienced substitutes. The Army did
not lose any, and secured much new
material. so changes will be only be-
cause better men have been found to
take some places.
Eligibility Bothered.
Agitation of the question of adopt.
ing eligibility rules threatened last
year to cause some feeling between the
institutions. Youths are admitted at
the Military Academy UP to two years
older than they can be accepted at
the Naval Academy. This makes II
possible for West Point to secure a
good many players who have already
been broken In on big college teams.

West Point, Wood, OF Johns Hopkins,
and Garberish, of Washington and

Develops Own Players.
The Navy rarely gets a player who
has had training on college team,
but must develop It's own players
from those who have had prepare
tory or high school experience at
best. An element among Naval OF.
fioers believes that this Is serious
disadvantags TO the Naval academy,
and last year IL wac proposed that
the schools adopt the one year resi-.
dencs rule and other rules in force
at most colleges. The Military
Academy officials absolutely declined
to accede, and for a time there was
some danger of rupture.
Agitation OF the subject appears to
have ended completely, The Naval

Bezdek's Team Glad to Rest
Next Saturday After Series OF
Tough Battles.

oTATE COLLEGE, Pa, Nov. H.
- For the first time since the
~ season began on September "a,
the Penn State eleven will have a
day or SO to relax next week; for
following the game with Navy to-
day, no contest is booked until
Thanksgiving, when the annual
struggle with the Pitt Panthers
will take place. After playing
through games with Lehigh. Har-
ward. Georgia Tech, Carnegie Tech
and Navy in succession, both coaches
and players are happy over the
thought that next Saturday Is
vacant ON the schedule.
Not that Coach Bezdek is planning
on an easy week. Far from 1t, for
the game with Pitt looms up as the
most Important of the year. Although
the Navy game today is attracting
considerable interest among alumni
and students, the Pitt game is the big
attraction and a victory over the
Panthers will be most welcomed by
the Penn State followers. To achieve
such victory, the Nittany Lions

year, but an abscessed throat has

five weeks. Whether or not he can
regain his form in time for the Pitt
battle remains to be seen. Penn State
students and alumni are hoping for
the best.
In looking ahead to the game with
