BILL STERLING
AGAINSTLOCAl
HIGH SATURDAY
VIII Be Only Prep Tilt in Tri.Citi.-
Davenport Plays Clinton
Team.
BY PIGSKN PETE.

Arrangements have been com.
pleted by the Rock Island hin.
! school to meet Sterling at Douglas
park next Saturday for the Ia,,
home game of the season. T5i,
will be the last time for local fans
! to see the Crimson and Gold war
riors in action. The Islanders will
stage the only nigh football game
in the tri-cities as Moline has m
game scheduled and Davenport vii,
play Clinton at Clinton.
The last game for Moline proyef
quite strenuous for the Swedes and
they are fully deserving of resi-
Galesburg. La SalIe-Peru. Rock Is
land and Champaign put up no lii
tie opposition for them and all the
battles ended in close score. Thew
meet Davenport next, Thanksgiv-
ing day at Davenport. Rock Island
high expects to travel to Rockford
that day but arrangements have
not been fully completed as yet
The gridders donned their mud
soaked uniforms and resumed
practice last night Light scrin-
mage and taCkling exercises wpl4
the order of the performance.
Coach KimmeI is planning to show
fans a much stronger team against
Sterling than the one that appeared
against Davenport and Moline. The
team showed marked Improvement
last Friday despite the slow and
heavy field. The regulars are in
fairly good condition and the end
of this week should find them in
first class shape. Alvine, one Of
the Crimson and Colds best line
men, is improving slowly from an
injured hip, and other minor fnjur-
les of the squad have faded.
Davenport is putting forth efforts
in preparation for the game with
Clinton next Saturday at Clinton.
The lads across the river have
plenty Of hard work ahead for the
next game and the one on Thanks
giving with Moline The Clinton
clash will be no easy one and the
battle with the SWedes occurs a few
days afterWard. Should Davenport
players incur any injuries in the
next struggle the chances OF win
ming the holiday fest viii be
small. The dope is already in favor
of the PlOws because of their IN
blemished record so far this season.
Confidence in the Maroon and
White has been increased by the
outcome of the last tussIe with
Moline viii have a chance 10 pre-
pare some real plays and get sig
mails down in perfect shape in more
than a weeks time. They have
been warned not to estimate the
strength of the Red and Blue men
too lightly and they must prepare
against the unexpected.

NOTRE DAME is
BEST, OPINION
OF BILLY EVANS
Irish Would Have No Trouble With
Any of Big Three, Expert
Declares.
= BY BILLY EVANS.

New York. Nov 16. - "Notre
Dame has one of the greatest foot
! ball teams | have seen in years. 1t
is a much better team than Yale,
Harvard or Princeton. l would
like nothing better than to have
| $100, 600 parIayed on Notre Dame
in a series in which the western
team would meet Yale, Harvard
and Princeton"
That is the way Tacks Hardwick.
former Harvard star, sizes up the
Notre Dame team, which has TAX
en- the east by storm. During the
intermission between the Yale
! Princeton game, .Hardwick dropped
| in the press box to say hello. l
was sitting in the midst of a group
of New York sporting writer's, all
football experts. Every one OF
them said Amen" to HardwiCk s
opinion.
None of the experts in the east
can offer an explanation for the
HarVard-Penn State game. They
all admit that Penn is much super
for to Harvard, yet the Crimson
! scored three touchdoWns against
State. Harvard was not even at
the top of its game at the time, as
the eleven was being groomed for
Princeton. 1t can only be explain
ed by saying that Harvard was
fortunate enough to catch Penn in
slump, as far as its defense was
concerned 1t is really remarka-
BILE the way Penn State has held its
condition, when one considers that
on successive Saturdays Bezdek's
eleven has met five such strong
teams as Lehigh, Harvard, Georgia
Tehc, Carnegie Tech and the Navy.
Penn State Is Strong.
Eastern critics are agreed that
Penn State is the best team in the
east Most of them are Of the opin-
ion that Notre Dame has a slight
edge on Penn. However, all are
sorry the two teams are not going
to meet. 1t has been suggested that
Notre Dame and Penn State play a
post-season game at the Polo
grounds. The chances for such a
game, however, seem rather slight.
The defeat of Princeton by Yale
came as great surprise. The Yale
team was known to have great pos
sibIlitieS, but it was believed that
the Princeton veterans would have
the edge. In the Princeton lineup
were seven seniors. in the Yale
lineup were seven sophomores. !
Most of the experts figured the ex-
perience of the Princeton team
would be the determining factor in !
the result. Yale has a great team
right now and has greater posi- !
bilities. 1t ought 10 be a whale of
an eleven in 1922.
The Princeton team seemed dead |
on its feet Condition and youth
OF Yale won over experience. /
Coach Roper of Princeton used only
II men against Harvard, but it
proved costly decision Keck |
went into the game with a broken |
blood vessel in his leg. Wittmer, !
who has played rowing center for /
Princeton all season, played a sta !
tiOnary defense. He made only one !
OF two tackles in the entire game, !
instead of being all over the field |

of the state championship. 1t has
gone through the season without a
defeat or even tie score by Illinois

game is with Davenport. The vic

Pillow lads. for the dow nState school
is known throughout the west for
TIE Quality OF lis grid play. The
touchdown that produced the win
might have been lucky but that
can't detract from the glory of the
winners. Davenport should be dis

Negotiations are under way to
book the teams on Turkey day this
fall. If arrangements are made.
Rock Island will have a chance to
pull itself together and gain glory
by defeating one of the really
strong teams of the state. A vic
tory over Rockford is worth while
training hard for. Last year the
teams battled TO a IA to IA tie.
