New York, N. Y, Oct 31-It de-
veloped today that there is still
some difference in understanding
as to just what was implied in the
agreement of the three presidents
of Yale, Harvard and Princeton
with respect to inter-sectional
games. Princeton seems to have
the idea that all inter-sectional
games have been banned. Yale
believes that the agreement applies
only to long trips by members of
the trio and that western and south
ern teams will be received at the
bowl as usual. if they care to come.
Harvard does not believe that the
agreement prevents her from taxi
ing a trip to the middle west if she
wishes. The agreement holds that
teams of the Big Three shall not
play post-season in,er-sectional
games and shall not take trips to
settle inter-sectional champion
ships. 1t is claimed in Cambridge
that there is nothing in the agree
ment that would prevent her from
visiting the middle west or the
south in the course of season if
she cared to. ,t--t .f
A Bostonian who is close to bar
ward affairs, however, thinks that
this stand would violate the spirit
il not the letter of the Yale-Har-
vard-Princetol agreement 1t is all
rather an interesting situation an
schedules of the Big Three for 1928

will be awaited with some curios-
ity. Z
A new light is coming in the line
of forward passing in teams own
territory. Last year Harvard,
which had always observed the
rules of zone offense. threw the ball
when close to her goal line ard
she did it Saturday against Dart
mouth. Princeton went even farther
and threw the ball from behind her
goal line, catching Chicago by sur
prise and nearly making touch
down.
AS a matter of cold fact there is
no reason why forward pass
should not be thrown from a team 5
own territory, provided the ball 5
thrown far. In such cases, even if
Intercepted, there is no more dan
ger of a boomerang touchdown than
there would be in the case of punt.
When thrown short and wide as
Harvard tossed it on Saturday,
there is, of course, grave danger.
But wise coaches have begun to
realize that pass travelling 40
yards is about as safe a play as
any, with the added prospect that
when well played it is real gamer.

ILL|NI SHOWED
STRONG ATTACK
Display Of Power During Portion
Of Michigan Contest Causes
Hope.

Urbana. ILL.,, Oct. 31.-Ten min
utes of Illinois play in the final
period of the Illinois-Michigan
game at Ann Arbor last Saturday
was so impressive that those lliini
fans who saw it looked forward
with just little more hope to the
remaining games Of the local cam
paign than the great majority
which merely read What the lllini
fell by a decisive score.
1t is the memory of this 70 min
utes which encouragedE Bob
Zuppke's young Illini as they re-
sumed hard practice on Illino
field today to make ready for t.
invasion by Northwestern Satu
day-a new Northwestern whic
has tied Minnesota, which in turn
has licked Ohio.
In the final period of the battle
at Ann Arbor there was little to
encourage the Him. The contest
had been far tighter than the score
indicated for Michigan had the bet
ter of the breaks. But Zuppke's
youngsters, fighters that they are,
took the ball on their own % yard
line and attacked the Wolverine
wall. ~.
With Cliff Happenny, the Massa-
chusetts lad who is q coming half
back, in the van, they nosed and
bit their way, yard by yard and
sometimes foot by foot, until they
had made six first downs in sue
cession. All this was without the
aid of an aerial pass. True they
were halted at the Wolverine IL
yard line where their first shot for
q pass failed Even the Wolver-
inc rooters scheered the plueky lit
tie band on its march.
That the Illini, with all the han
dicaps under, which they battled
Michigan. could gain ground so
consistently, is regarded as signifi-
cant Of what is possible when
Zuppke's men are better seasoned
and have the advantage OF good
puntinG.
Much Of Zuppke's time today
was spent in instructing Bill Rob-
inson of Carunville, who may play
quarterback against Northwestern
if Rube Clark isn't in shape. Ex-
cept for Chris Woodward, who has
a bad hand from the Michigan
game. the Illini are in good shape.
Dads day, combined with Rotary
day, will help to bring visitors
from all over the state to see the
j Illini engage Northwestern. But
Illinois field capacity will furnish
seats for all.

Harvard was in the lead OF the

Princeton was at the bottom. It is
possible that Harvard has not
gone back but the game with Dart
mouth would not indicate that she
had advanced materially. Prince
tons work in finally winning from
Chicago has advanced her stock
materially. In fact, the Princeton

that Harvard Is being run under
pull" to some extent in. order that
the full strength Of the. team may
be ON hand when needed. But this
very thing seems to have given the
best lineup somewhat too little
work together to- weld the players
into a united whole.
Gehrke is punting well. and he Is
not the only one in the Harvard
backfeld who can. punt Neal at
New Haven has shown . quality to
his kicking which Is promising.
Princeton has three men who look
after the kicking department In
fairly good shape. but no one on
the Harvard, Yale or Princeton
teams is such an adept at the plac-
ing of puuts as Kipke Of Michigan.
Had either Wood of the Army or
Neal of Yale been able. to cut the
corner between the five yard line
and the goal line last Saturday as
Kipke does with his punts regu-
larly there would have been a DIFF
ferent story to tell as a result OF
the West 'Point-Yale game.
The Army-Navy situation has
come to more, of an equality. The
Army has shown better cohesion
and attack than last year. Smythe
is a sure catcher of punts and
Wood is good punter. The Navy
finds its line still slow and Fol-
we'll will have to quicken the for
wards. What looked like odds on
the Navy is coming to look more
like evens.

active scrimmage work today after

who is the minister of marine and

'Ir view Of the mentality of the
United States, they will come into
the conference when they think i,
right to come, and not before"
His fight against the proposed
arrangement was in the interest OF
Canada, now holding a permanent
seat, but excluded, along with
India, in the reorganization. He
added:

placed Canada below other coun-
tries l am proud of it."
