BOSTON COLLEGE MEETS
ITS EQUAL IN FORDHAM

Records of the Boston College ana
Fordham University football teams IT.
dicate that the elevens will be very
evenly matched when they meet at
Ebbets Field, Brooklyn, next Saturday.
While each has lost one game this
season the defeats were sustained at
the hands ,of unusually powerful op.
ponents and the experience gained
should benefit the play of the two RI
walls in their next contest.
Both Fordham and Boston came
through Saturdays struggles without
the loss of star players and they will.
therefore, be able to place their
strongest line.ups on the field.
In fullback Meyers Fordham has n
player of remarkable football instinct.
His running and kicking form a per-
petual threat which greatly hampers
the opponents defense. His seventy
five-yard run for a touchdown, follow
ing an intercepted forward pass in the
Lafayette game was as brilliant und
spectacular play as any seen on local
gridirons in seasons. Meyers's AL
around ability is shown by the IA It
that he is fifth In the list Of eastern
college scorers with a total of foriy
points to his credit. Close to 25 per
cert of Fordham's total score for five
games has been made by Meyers.

seasons, would be very much\ in
the running except for an injury to
his knee, which he received early in
the season, and which probably puts
MIN out OF the game for the year.
1t Is one Of the peculiar kinks of
football that the Naval Academy
has not developed good punter In
three seasons, and not one Of the
highest grade for even longer. There
are, In fact, good punters on the
squad now, notably Wallace, a guard
substitute, but none who could dis
place any of the present players.
Norris, who entered this year, punts
better than any of the present backs,
but 1t has not yet been shown that
1t would do to put him In the place
OF the veterans.
1t was a general surprise when II
was found that Barchet was doing
the punting against Princeton. 1t
was not known that he could boot
the ball, and 1t must be said that he
does not punt nearly so well as he
runs with the ball However, he ia

CLASHES COMING.
ON MANY FIELDS
Georgia Tech, Centre College,
and Virginia to Meet North

The North and the South will have

Three Eastern elevens two of which
are rated among the best of the sea.
son will tackle three representatives
from below the Mason Dixon line, and
favorable followers in both sections
will watch the outcome with keen in
terest.
Georgia Tech and Penn State are
scheduled to clash on the Polo
rounds. Harvard will take on Centre
College at Cambridge and Princeton's
battered Tigers will face Virginia Uni
versity in Jersey.
Georgia Tech comes North flushed
with victory. leading the teams of
the country in scoring and boasting
a lineup that contains at least nine
men who are playing their second sea-
son as regulars. In addition the
.Georgians have a reputation as the
deftest exponents of the "aecial game"
in the country. They also have a
series of shift plays that are calcu-
lated to dazzle the strongest elevens.
The stars of the Georgia eleven are

though the Staters held Harvar1 to a

Harvard is expected to come
through to a comparatively easy vic
tory over Centre College which Is not
particularly strong this season, and
Princeton should turn Virginia back.
But the Tigers, in their crippled con-
dition. are not expected to run up a

punch of the State players to a high
degree. .
In fact, the Naval Academy has tre-
mendous respect for Penn State in
athletics, and Is very well aware of
the fine spirit they put into their con-
tests. as well as such other incidents
as the physical fitness of their players
and the ability of Bezdek as a coach.
In several lines of sport; namely,
boxing and wrestling, Penn State is
really the only serious opponent of the
midshipmen. The score in these and
other sports is with the Navy now, and
1t is reasonable to believe that Penn
State will try to make them even by
winning in the great sport.
VIII Overlook Nothing.
Not one point will be overlooked in
preparing for the State game, and, the
Army game will have to be dropped
out Of consideration to u large extent.
That contest Is two weeks later and
no game intervenes between the two.
This means that Folwell will have
that period to think of and prepare for
West Point only.
Under such circumstances, the point
of wisdom would seem to be to de-
velop the teams strength to the high
est possible degree, and then to make
good use OF the final two weeks. A
victory over Penn State would help
win one over to the Army to a much
greater degree than would the loss
of the game.
= The Naval Academy squad begins
the week in almost perfect physical
shape. Two or three of the line
are nursing minor hurts
to knee or ankle. but there is none
who could not go in the game at once
II needed. The team has also as
sumed definite shape at an earlier
date than ever before. t..
Barring accident, the final choice
on the line seems to be: Ends, Tay-
lor and SParr: tackles, King and
Bolles; guards, Carney and Frawfey:
center. Larson Only Saccident or al
development of some
player can make a change now.
High Grade Backs.
In the backfield,. tho number Of
players OF very high grade makes
n final choice more difficult. The
best that can be done is to name
seven players who are first string

In the meantime, the Navy Is not

: the two remaining teams on the home
schedule. Navy scouts have seen
sboth teams in action. and bring back
! reports of their strength and clever
ness. Bethany. it is known. is making
q tremendous preparation for the
game. which takes place next Satur-
I day, and, though a college of only 300;
students. has developed a remarkable
team. For several years past Beth
any has had a fast team with lots Of
well executed plays, and this year it
also has very strong and heavy
team. s .......
Bucknell, 1t will be noticed, tied
with Washington and Jefferson Satur-
day. w. and J. is very strong this
year, and Bucknell looks to be the
same. Bowser, it's fullback, has
played football and basketball at the
Naval Academy several times. and is
highly regarded here. In previous
football games he has had to do most
OF the carrying himself, but 1t is I'M
derstood he has capable side partners
this year, and has a powerful line in
front of him. 1t will be the last game

grounds.

Bill Roper Prepares
Long Way Ahead
For Tigers

PRINCETON, N. j., Oct. 26.
Head Coach Bill Roper of the
Princeton University football
team has in mind at least one
recruit for the Tigers of 1880.
He. is carefully training his
young son, Bill Roper, jr., ten
years old, in all the intricacies
of the game.
Little Bill acts as quarterback,
and although not much larger
than the ball, boots it over the
bar with amazing ease in drop
kick practice. Another time,
with his dad as center, he filings
passes to imaginary ends or
follows in the. steps of Don
Lourie by dashing around end
for touchdowns.
