New York. Nov. 24.--Finis will
bn written tomorrow at the foot OF
most of the C, rege football sched-
ules in the east, The two out
standing contests are the classic
clashes between Harvard and Yale
and the Army and Navy. 49,
Not in many year have, the TWO
games been played on the same
afternoon. Regardless OF tHs
double bill, however, more than
l00,0 900 ticket applications were
refused for both the New haven
and the Philadelphia game.
The outcome of these two games,
like many another this fall APP
pears to hinge upon the breaks OF
tho play and the quickness win
which opportunities to score are
seen and grasped. In the case OF
the Yale-HarYard struggle the Ell S
appear to ba a trifle stronger IN
line and back rield and to nave a
more powerful offense. To oate
this offensive has not been re-"
markable for brilliancy in handing
and has several times slowed down
to mediocre standards at the most
crucial moments of advance,
Yalc's Line Is Strong
Yale has a strong. powerful line
with particularly impressive CEN
ter trio. 1t probably is stronger
than the Harvard center and
guards. The Crimson ends possibly
hold sufficient superiority to coun-
terbalance and thus equalize the
lines. The Blue back field both in
first and second string material Is
a better scoring combination than
Harvard's but it is not likely TO
function with the same smoothness
and deceptive power as the Grim
sons, particularly IL Buell. Is at
quarter for Harvard and plays
through the game.
For Harvard both Quarterback
Buell. and Halfback owen are es-
sential to the Crimson's strongest
offense. Neither is in perfect con-
dition.
The Army-Navy battle on Frank
lin field at Philadelphia, with its
traditionally colorful setting of
notables in official and social life,
promises to develop a keen con-
test between two powerful, veteran
aggregations, with the est Point
ers conceded a slight eoge III
attacking strength. Both teams
are expected to resort to an open
game. but the cadets. with TWO
brilliant receivers and passers IN
Quarterback Smythe and Fulipack
Wood. are thought better equipped
than their service rivals in TINS
department.
Wood a consistent kicker and
clever open field runner, is one OF
tha leading triple-threaty stars OF
+be east, while Barchet. fully re-
covered from injuries. will give the
Navy a brilliant plunging and run
ming back.
Armv's chances, on the Whole'
loom brighter than usual to break
the victorious march of the Navy
which has won three straight
games since the war. each time by
the margin Of a single touchdown.
Tomorrow clash will be the
twenty-fifth between the service
rivals. the Navy having to its credit
50 far twelve victories and the
Army eleven with one contest tie.
The 4 rtmouth-Brown game at
Boston, the Notre Dame-Carnegle
Tech tussle at Pittsburgh and the
annual Lehigh-Lafayette contest It
Easton. Pa, are other outstanding
games.
Brown. especially on the strength
Of the 30 victory a week ago over
Harvard, is favored to defeat Dart
mouth, which lost to the Crimson,
t2 to 3.
Carnegie Tech, with an unusu-
ally strong team. led by a brilliant
field general in Quarterback Rob-
ertson, should give Notre Dame a
stiff battle, while La F4yette, de-
feated but once this season. ap-
pears decidedly superior to Lehigh
