YALE NOT TO CHANGE
LINEUP FOR HARVARD

NEW HAVEN. Conn, November Is.
Yale is extremely likely to send
against Harvard in the Cambridge
stadium Saturday exactly the same
lineup which subdued the Bengals
in the bowl Although Jack Diller
was not at. right tackle yesterday. the
team ran through an hours signals
in otherwise the same playing order
in which it hunted the Tigers.
Two other changes had been sug-
gested-replacing Guernsey by C.osS
at right guard and sending Blair back
to left end. The question of condi-
tion will determine the occupants OF
both places. Guernsey has outgroWn
the muscle bruise which developed
during the Princeton game, and yes
terday played the whole practice.
Blair. on the other hand. has not en-
tirely recovered from the injury which
caused the coaches to decide not TO
send him against Princeton.
Coach Jones intended to plunge the
regulars against the Sc ubs for a
brief scrimmage. but changed his
mind when he found that the DOW

Gridironers of Potomac Boat Club
and Washington Canoe Club will be
sent through their final drills tomor-
row in preparation for their big
splash" in the foot ball world that is
to occur Saturday at American
League Park. Both squads have
been working diligently for several
weeks-the Potomacs under Charley
Guyon, former Carlisle star, and the
Canoeists under Norman Landreau.
former Georgetown gridman and
each is about at top condition.
The Oarsmen have develoDed
fast-changing line and a well bal
anced backtield and expect to repeat
their success of last season. when the
first Interview club contest was
played. Several of Potomac's first
string players will not be able to
start Saturday because of injuries.
but they may be rushed into the fray
should the Red and White goal be
seriously threatened.
The Canoeists have been more for
tunate in their training. for they have
not lost a player through injury. In
Capt. Walton, Blumer. Martin and
Buchholz they have a backfield that
is likely to worry the Potomac
forwards considerably. These men
have had much experience at the
game and form a heavy yet speedy
quartet.

CRUISE GETS CHANCE
IN NAW'S bACKF|ELD

ANNAPOLIS, Md. November 16.-
The second important change Of the
week in the Naval Academy team was
made yesterday when Cruise replaced
Hamilton in the backfieid. The latter
is a prime defensive player and has
not retrogressed at all. but Cruise
has done so well that it was thought
wise to give him a chance.
The comparative work of the two
during the present week will bring
about the final decision, as in the case
of Wiedorn and Bolles, who are fight
ing for the left tackle position.
Cruise was in the Navy backfield on
Saturday. when the Navy team rallied
in the last quarter and delivered a
sustained punch which nearly brought
about another touchdown. He was
also a regular two years ago. but was
replaced by Hamilton last season. He
is somewhat heavier and shorter than
the latter player.
The scrimmage yesterday was long
and spirited and every varsity player
gave evidence of being imbued with
an intense desire to get fit and ready
for the Army.
Many passes were attempted and
Parr had some success in catching
the long ones. Barchet, as usual, was
the star in the backfield, making sew
eral runs of around 40 and so yards.

Crimson Faces Yale Plays.

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. November 10.
There was lot of hard work Tor
the Harvard varsity eleven yesterday.
Secret drilling followed session at
the tackling dummies. a session as
strenuous as any held earlier in the
year. Weak tackling has marred the
Crimson's play all the year. and the
coaches have made 1t very plain that
their men will have to do some regu-
lar tackling Saturday when they meet
the rushes of Jordan. Aldrich and
O'Hearn.
The scrub team. one member OF
which emulated O'Hearn, did Its best
to show the varsity the Yale plays.
including the delayed pass fakes on
which O'Hearn and Aldrich made con-
siderable ground against the Tigers.
Harvard also Is looking for an attack
inside Of tackle to develop from the
Yale formation. And the coaches also
have. been doing some serious think
ing about the New Haven teams for
ward passing game.
On attack the Crimson Is working
to play to what the scouts consider as
Yale's rush-line weakness And the
players are taking hold of this sort
Of strategic work with will.
The first team was comprised Of

ARMY SCRUBS SCORE.
Use Navy Plays to Get Touchdown
Against Varsity.

WEST POINT. N. Y. November 16.-
The Army drive was renewed in
earnest yesterday with long and
strenuous scrimmage between the
'rst team and the scrub team.
The latter, using Navy plays en-
rely, was able to advance the ball
from midfieId to score shortly after
the scrimmase started. In view Of
this surprising feature much time was
spent on defense. The scrubs were
unable to advance the ball consist
emily thereafter. The last fifteen min
utes Of the scrimmage were devoted
to offensive drill. Wood, Warren,
Lawrence and McLaren featured in
the resulting drive to the scrubs goal
line.
Much time was devoted to kicking
practice, Smith. Fr"r"r v-~~' .
Gilmore being drilled in this fea-
ture. The kicking OF ,Sin...
French was more impressive than the
Army kicking at any time this year,
which was surprising. in view Of the
fact that neither had been usel in
this capacity during the season. Da-
wilson. Breidster and MulIigan were
out on the field. following the prac-
tice. Ives. who received cut under
his eye Saturday, was also on the side
lines.

In view Of the fact that Fordham
played tie game with Boston College
and Georgetown whipped Fordhanl
easily even with two star players out
of the lineup, it does not seem that
Georgetown is in any special danger of
having it's record marred by the Beam
eaters. The Blue and Gray will go to
Boston with the determination to wipe
out the sting Of the Georgia Teen de-
feat, and probably will play real loot

was impossible for the latter to stop
Randolph, and long end runs by him
were mainly responsible tor both of
Bethany's two touchdowns. The one
real weakness apparent in the Beth
any line was on the tanks. Bethany
