 Centre Games Hold Interest Of chief interest. perhaps, to the av- craze follower Of the autumn sport viii l be the struggle in the Hayward stadi- lfTn between the Colorful Praying Col onels from Kentucky and the Orthodox but well trained Crimson players With. each institution credited with one victory l in the games of the past two years, the struggle will probably break the. standing tie and furnish asclinnax to the
 series, for under the new triangular Iagreement recently entered into by Yale,
 Harvard and Princeton inter-sectional
 games appear to be q thing of the past.
 Flushed with series of sensational ] triumphs during the season of 1919, Gen. ,! 9tre came to Cambridge in the middle OF i the 1920 campaign with remarkable i forward passing attack only to be turn l ed back 31 to 14 by the better line rushing offense of the Crimson. Moth ] ing daunted Center returned to Danville 1 and developed defense for the short plunge gain and came back last season to win from Harvard GO due to "Red" | D1ha rf,I1,< r5afa "Bo' Mcafillan's speed and cleverness | afoot in a broken field run
 l Roberts a Second ABOn 3IcMiIlan 1 McMiilan will be missing when the 1 teams lineup tomorrow but Roberts will
 be on hand bigger and perhaps more inn pressive. What the outcome fof the game will be is something even a prophet would shy from forecasting Centre started the season with her usual string i of double figure, scores piling up a to- I tai of 15S points in the first three games. Against Virginia Poly last Sat urday the Colonels did not appear so
 impressive. Although Centre won 10 to I s, 6,1accounts from the southland indicate that the Danville collegians were out I played and lucky to win. Certainly the
 statistics of the game would appear to 1 indicate thats Poly players had far the
 
 I out the contest and let victory slip
 through their fingers in the final min
 utes of the struggle.
 Following an intercepted forward pass l Virginia Poly staged 67 yard march in !. series of line plunges and short enc
 runs which eventually ended in a touch
 down before the close of the first peri l cd. There was no further scoring unti the final period when Center scored from the eight yard line after securing ) the ball previously on an intercepted pass In the closing minutes of the game :; Centre made victory doubly sure by Kick ing field goal from the thirty yart } line after being held for three downs , Records of the play show that the Col onels were outrushed and outgained 1T ; end runs Their ball carriers were throwr f for losses aggregating almost three l times similar losses by Virginia and on l Ely in bunting and forward pass did Cen ter show to advantage in the statis
 ties.
 Harvard Not Impressive
 Harvard to date has not been parti . cularly impressive although no opponen thas been able to cross the Crimson goa $ line. Middlebury, Holy Cross and Bow
 doin have been defeated in turn for ; q total of s points. The development o | the team has been slow and methodical n At the present moment the hackfiel 2 appears to be stronger and more advanc Il ed than the line. Much of the practfc \ has been devoted to defensive work an , Harvard is likely to appear better il s this respect against Center than or ts9
 offense. It is likely that the Cambridg n combination will be set to check an V extended aerial attack staged by tn : southerners and depend upon quick lin
 thrusts and wide end runs for~fts gains e The fact remains, however, that Harvar $ always has few specially deceptiv | shift and concealed ball plays for us : in emergency It may be that tomorrol v it will be necessary to uncover one Q
 more of these football gems to defea
 or the Center.
 Navy vs. Georgia Tech
 6 The Navy will throw an unusual heavy and powerful team against Geor gia Tech, and while the midaies are a P yet not far advanced along the footba > trail their poundage and drive shoul z prove an imposing obstacle to Geol = gia victory. Bucknen gave the Navy y gruelling argument last Saturday an : uncovered several weak points in til U line as we'll as in tactics. With a wee
 of cool weather in which to rectif d these weaknesses it is likely that tt Y isailors will prove more formidable Bot U teams while undefeated to date ha, been Scored upon in a majority of the ' games and it would appear that offer & sively they are further advanced tha
 defensively.
 Tigers to Beat Maryland ' Princeton will meet Maryland, whie j. lost to Pennsylvania week ago 12 le 0. Both of Penn's scores came as u $ result of forward passes and long rul F and it wa sapparent, that Maryland hs h little defense for either passes or CT l. runs. The southerners could and d o. hold repeatedly against line plunge a " tacks inside their ten yard line wfis ,n defense kept the score down to a poi le which indicated a closed playing abi
 ity on the part of the two teams ths
 more complete statistics of the gan
 Against the shifty offensive of Princett
 including as it does several threats fro Y the same formation. Maryland will ha- ,n trouble in holding the Tiger in che, iv unless the eleven has improved great ,d with the week.
 n- Syracuse ys. Pittsburgh st Two extremely close games appel r. certain when Syracuse faces Pittsburj at and Cornell lines up against Colgai 's, Pittsburgh has already lost to Lafayet ne and West Virginia in bitterly contest
 games and should have benefited by t : experiences gained. Syracuse showed I strong offense against Brown we A ago. but nullified it by careless handlil
 of the ball. The Providence collegiar
 however, could make little impressio
 upon the Syracuse forwards and sfiou the Salt City team strike it's offensi stride against the Panthers tomorrc
 Pittsburgh will have difficulty in repes
 ing its victory of a year ago.
