CHICAGO, Nov 7.-Intersectlon-
al struggles between Notre Dame
and the Army at West Points an
nual clash between Princeton and
Harvard at Cambridge. and import
ant games scheduled In all sections
of the country will command at
end.
Although the game which
brought Princeton and Chicago to-
gether In one OF the greatest bat
ties ever staged between two elev-
ems OF different parts OF the coun-
try has sort OF taken the edge off
similar games to be played during
the remainder OF the year. the re-
suit OF the Notre Dame-Army game
will attract a lot OF attention.
Notre Dame Team Strong.
While Coach Rockno has not the
formidable aggregation of last year.
he has a squad which has shown i'm
provement In every game. The
Hoosiers' victory over Georgia Tech,
10 10 3. was creditable perform
ance and plainly showed the team
is improving with every game. Like
former Notre Dame elevens which
have met the Army. the middle west
eleven will depend mostly upon the
aerial attack and Major Days men
had better prepare Cor plenty OF
open work. Coach Rockne will turn
every play loose in this encounter.
az Il is one game he wants to win.
Princeton and Harvard will en-
gage in their annual contest, which
Is generally looked forward to by
ever follower of football. Because

have met on the gridiron, football
fans have been educated to look
upon the game as one OF the sea-
sons classics. Unless tho Tigers
play better football than they did
against Chicago, the Crimson should
be returned a winner. Princeton
was weak against the straight line
attack OF the Maroons, who showed
weakness in breaking up forward
passes. Both teams. however, were
put to the test and should profit
by mistakes,
Wabash to Play W. & J.
Aside from the intersectlonal
game between Notre Dame and the
Army, other contests are on the
schedule between elevens OF differ
ent sections. Wabash, known in
middle west circles as the Little
Clans. will meet Washington & JEFF
ferson on the latter's gridiron. Wa
bash was beaten by Butler recently.

the result of three field goals by
Griggs.

ference importance will be played.
Chicago. which has not been defeat
81 At
Ohio State at Columbus. 1t will be
their 81 to IS defeat by Princeton.
II Chicago plays a little smarter
football against the Buckeyes than
they did against the Tigers, Stages
eleven should win. The Buckeyes
have been defeated by Michigan
and Minnesota and cannot be said
TO be as strong as in former years,
Iowa, last years conference
champion. which has not met with
defeat this year and defeated Yale,
10 0. will meet real opposition in
Minnesota at Iowa City. II will be
home coming for the Hawkeyes and
the largest crowd which ever saw
a gridiron game in Iowa will be on
hand. Minnesota met Wisconsin
laft Saturday and II the Gophers
came through in good shape, they
should give Iowa an interesting con-
test.
