Army-Navy Tickets Are
Being Sold ait S25 Eac},

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 22. - Bill
Roper, coach of Princeton-s undefeated
football team, accompanied by Jack
Strubing and Maury Trimble, former
Tiger stars. saw Penn hold strenuous
practice on Franklin Field late this
afternoon in preparation for tho Cor
nell battle. 1t was Penn's last prac-
tice on the field until next week, as
the Army and Navy will hold forth
In the stadium the rest of the week
Ticket agencies here to-day reported
that they have no trouble getting
pasteboards for the Army-N game,
claiming that Penn students, alumni
and o few Army and Navy men are
unloading at big profit. At present
the tickets are being sold as high as
$25 each.
Reservations have been made by the
Army team at the Green Hill Farms
just on the outskirts of the city, and
the players will arrive there tomorrow
noon. The Navy does not get in until
Friday morning and will stop at the
Bellevue Stratford
Several truckloads Of baled straw
were taken to Franklin Field this after
noon and will be placed on the grid

of with lots Of life. 1t was here the
corps praeticed their cheers and yeils
and flung their battle cries to the high
hills across the Hudson.
"For the losing team to quote the
philosophy of Captain McEwan, of the
coaching staff. there is about as much
sport in football as there is for the
bull in bullfght."
Let the Navy Weep
The Army players are bending every
effort to seeing that on Saturday night
they don't have 10 look at it from the
viewpoint of the bull. AS Captain
Breidster OF the team observed: We've
had that for three years, and X is our
earnest desire to let the other fellow
see how it feels to lose"
Dennis Mulligan, the big Irish guard,
was practicing kick-offs this afternoon
Hey he cried. "get those balls back
here faster. There ought to be 15-foot
balls here for ne to kick" No sign
of staleness about that, and that's the
way the whole crowd feels about il.
There will be a great duel of lines on
Saturday. The Nays forward line is
first class, as Penn States can testify,
and it is doubtful whether there is a
better line in the land than the
Army's. The coaches here don't say
they'll defeat the Navy, but they do
maintain that they have the best Army
team since 1916, when the Army defeated
Notre Dame. so to 10. They think their
line the best in the East. Their hope
is TO bring up their plays at critical
moments and score with them. The
team, unless there is a last-minute
change, will take the field against the
Navy as follows:
Ends, y. Storck and White; tackles,
! Goodman and Mulligan; guards, Breids
ter and Farwick; center, Garbisch;
quarterback, Smythe; halfbacks, Tim
herlake and Dodd; fullback, Wood.
With that muster of football Drawn,
/ agility and vigilance the Army will
stand or fall.
"And whatever you say requested
Major Crawford, don't say that though
the Army Navy game may not be up
to the best standards in football
technique, it will be hard fought and
full of color. We've become bit weary
of that trite utterance, which makes
It's appearance about this time every
year. for though we grant the hard
fought and color part Of It there's no
better football skill and quality to be
found anywhere than Army and Navy
teams have and produce"
The writer believes that way. too.
The Army squad and coaches will
! leave here tomorrow morning for
Philadelphia A workout is scheduled
! for the afternoon at Franklin Field.

throughout the practice, though when
Neale went out he was replaced by

The line played without Lovejoy at
center, who did not go out to the field
because of slight cold, Landis taking
his place. The guards were Pillebury
and Cross, Cruikshank staying in on
account Of classes. The tackles, Miller
and Joss, were later replaced by Greene
and Herr. Mike Eddy was on the field

injury to his knee it Is doubtful II
he will play in the Harvard game.

Capt. Buell. FoIlotcs
Team Around Field

CAMBRIDGE, Mass, Nov. 22-The
Harvard football team heard from the
undergraduates tonight in no uncer-
tain terms when 1,500 packed the liv-
ing room of the union and cheered the
players, who although defeated twice
are still heroes to their classmates.
The varsity team had the place OF
honor on the platform and the speak
ers were Head Coach Bob Fisher, Cap
tain Charley Buell. and former Captain
Lothrop Wilmington. All dispensed en-
couraging news about tho outcome Of
Saturdays game, but st4essed the fact
that undergraduate support Is abso-
iutely necessary if the Crimson is TO
win. Duncan Thayer, of the baseball
team, presided and track captain Billy
Burke led the cheers.
This afternoon Captain Charley
Buell. dressed for play, but could do
no more than to follow the varsity

of the team at least. but the chances
are slim just now that he will be able
to last very long. Phil Spalding was
at the varsity helm to-day and gave
way to Jimmy Lee. The former will
have considerable upon his shoulders
Saturday if Buell. has to leave the game
or does not start 1t.
Jack Hammond did not start in the
varsity backfeld to-day, but followed
the eleven players in company with
Captain Buell. and replaced Vinton
Chaplin after ten minutes Of the dummy
scrimmage. A windy day will allow
Fisher to use Hammond as q punter,
as he gets better direction than Gehrke
and is a better all-around back than
Chaplin.
Dan Holder returned TO the varsity
lineup for the first time since Satur-
day. He and jenkins were on the ends.

about the academy grounds have been

"Wili we sit down down and watch

In conversation with Captain Breid~
ster OF the eleven this afternoon, some
body asked about the spirit of the play
ers on the eve of going into battle with
the Iaidshipmeg. "No need to ask about
that" was the answer. "We haven't
won a game from Navy in three years,
you know, and we're sired Of that"
No Signs of Staleness
The last home practice was held this
afternoon, the cheering was fine and
the practice went along with vim and
all the ginger there is in the jar 1t
was sweater practice, for the day was
biting cold in the wind, but the extra
clothing made it none the less fast and
active The wind and the work quick
" brought color to cheeks, and if
there was any sign Of staleness any
where it must have been left in the
locker rooms. There were no drawn
cheeks and no pale cheeks. Breidster,
Goodman and Mulligan arc healthy
specimens; they are stalwarts and pos

afternoon than they will be Saturday

Roderick Tears Up
Scrub Defense for
Big Gains i'm Drill

With Columbia scheduled to do bat
tie with Colgate a week from to-day
at South Field, Buck O'Neill put his
squad through a stiff workout, the first
practice session since the 28 to 7
swamping at the hands Of Uartm Mouth.
During the scrimmage drill the varsity
scored four touchdowns, with Roderick
accounting for two Of the tallies and
Koppisch and Van Brocklin for one
each.
Roderick was a whirlwind and tore
through the second stringers' defense
ing to gain. His work was of such
caliber that Head Coach O'Neill kept
saying, Good work, Ben" Skirting
the ends was his favorite occupation
and his gains were often of twenty to
thirty yards. Ben made the greatest
advances around the fanks. but he also
bucked the line frequently for little
diversion.
Waiter Koppisch, whose work on the
grldiron this season stands out as the
redeening feature of Colunbia's s foot
ball. continued to put up his stellar
game, and, with Roderick, accounted
Tor about three-quarters of the gained
yardage during the set-to. Jack Van
brocklin, who was sent in at right
half in the absence of Canapary, also
did well, registering one of the touch
downs on sweeping end run from
the tifteen-yard stripe.
1t has definitely been decided TO hold
the Columbia Colgate game in the
morning. Last years contest between
the pair was also settled during the
earlier part Of the day and the at
tendance was rather poor on account
of the inclement weather. The ath-
/ letic association feels that, given clear
weather, New York will turn out en-
masse to witness the only Thanksgiv-
ing Day contest to be settled in New
York en- that day.

from all available information the4
Navy coaches have determined upon the
points in the Army defense which arc
open to attack, and have perfected
varied ofFense which it is hoped will
be used to batter continuously and
successfully ut those points. 1t is not
believed, as some reports state, that
the Army has an !nvincible defense,
and it is believed here that it has def
mite points of weakness
Realizing that tho Navy's chances of
success lie largely in being able to
make better use OF its straight and
slanting line plays than it has done
heretofore this season, large portion
OF the available time is being devoted
to that It is recognized that the Navy
has not done nearly so we'll with these
plays as in recent seasons.
Not only in using these plays effec-
lively has the Navy to make up for the
ightness of its backs, but many Of
It's forwards are comparatively inexpe-
Ttenced, and it is this, more than the
lightness of the backs, which has
made the plays Of less effect this year.
However, Barchet is heavier by five
pounds this year than last, his present
weight being 165 pounds. Mckee
weighs 160, Cullen i70 and Captain
Conroy 1863. All are experienced backs
in fine physical shape and should work
in perfect harmony after fhs many
games played together.
The weight of other backs VINO are
likely to get in the game are as fol-
lows: Norris, 1872; Hamilton, 1876;
Flipp,n, i75; Hughes, 142; o'Regsn,
175; Flaherty, 178,
At present the line men who are

weigh as follows: Left end, Psrr, 1872;

saoAAS 61S severed Ior all time.
The commission yesterday put It's
stamp Of approval on bout between
Gene Tunney and Greb ct Madison
Square Garden for the night of De-
cember 29. The contract between Greb
and Engle will expire some two hours
after the bell rings for the first round
Of this scrap. The Garden manage
ment is anxious to put this fight on
and Tunney, according to his manager,
Doc. Bagley, is reaoy to go through
with it. The word from official boxing
sources yesterday was to the effect
that If Greb fails to go through with
the engagement he will face an in
definite suspension at the hands of the
local Boxing Commission and will
probably be barred from most OF the
other prominent boxing states through
sympathetic action.
Engle has booked Greb for some
natf dozen fights, representing an ag-
Eregate purse of something Ike S25.-
600, which does rot include the Garden
pout. The commission will insist that
the American light heavyweight cham
plon go through with these engage
ments under the management of Enele,
II he refuses to do so there will be a
suspension ban placed upon him i'm
mediately and his appearance in New
York ring will be remote prospect.
The Greb-Tunney match, If it comes
OF. should be a wonder for action and
free swinging Of gloved fists. The last
time this pair met, which was when
Greb relieved the Greenwich Village
idol Of the American light heavyweight,
title that the latter had won from
Battling Levinsky, the bout was q
hurricane affair from start to finish
1T went fifteen rounds and Greb was
awarded the decision and the title.
Tunney's manager, Doe Bagley,

after Genes defeat by the Pittsburgh
boxer. This challenge was accom-.
