MANY CLOSE TILTS ARE EXPECTED
 ON COLLEGE GR|D|RONS TODAY

New York, Nov. S-Intersectional games and gridiron tussles between the teams of extraordinary D aying cafbr" and records feature the football card in the east tomorrow. The University of Florida faces Harvard; Nebraska meets Syracuse and Alabama tackles Pennsyt- vnia in the intersectionl portion of the schedule. In this city Lafayette will clash win Washington and Jefferson and l what has been termed the nearest ar- proach to a game between two All American elevens Is expected.
 In the second flight of the afternoon Brown is found opposing Yale; Co!um- | bia will try to check Cornells power full scoring machine Princeton will eli- certain Swarthnore, Holy Cross and ] Georgetown will clash; Dartmouth lines up against Boston university and Am herst will grapple with Wesleyan. Little accurate information is avail able in the east regarding the actual l laying strength of the three teams which | invade the section for tonorrow's con- | tests. While all have good records in | their own territory the scheme of at- l tack and the calibre of opponents to ] date is more or less vague. By a strange coincidence Florida, Nebraska and Ala bama are all heavy. powerful combina- l tions and on sheer weight appear to be formidable opponents. Florida is under stood to boast line which averages 200 l pounds to the man
 Harvard will start team composed, in the main, of substitutes against Flori- l da but the coaches will have their best 1 players available in case they are need- 1 ed With the Princeton contest but a week away it is understood that liar yard desires to save the first string meu 1 from scrimmage if possible.
 1 Nebraska made an excellent, showing during it's eastern invasion few sea- sons ago. At that time the western el- even inc uded many rangy and powerful players who did not apnear to reach the full limit of their football possibilities. Un CT the coa ching of Dawson this 'e- feet is said to have been remedied. Syra- cusa also has squad of unusually hus- ky players who showed great defensive power in the games against Penn Stato 1 and Brown. Offensively, the Syracuse /, eleven was not impressive but the pos sibi'ities are there and the team may find itself in the Nebraska struggle.
 Pennsy ania's remarkable come-bacK and overthrow of the Navy last Sat urday stamps the combination as one Of real gridiron worth. While Alabama may prove a foe of unexpected strength the 1 Qualsers should be able to hold the southerners in check unless there is a let down following the victory over the ni:dd;es
 Brown will undoubtedly give Yale a hard contest. With the Princeton and Harvard games rapidly approaching. the Eli coaches will Goubtless endeavor to save their best layers, as far as pos sibie, from the Ganger of injury. This should put the burden of battle on Brown and the resultant scoring is like I1, fn he olO nd in fnfa A similar situation will prevail at Princeton. The Tigers fresh from their sensational victory over Chicago aid facing a struggle with Harard next Sat urday, and are not likely to throw the lost ounce of power into the Swarthnore game.
 : The visiting team has a remarkably good punter and running back in As Plunth. A tumble A tumble of one of his .ong kicks or other similar break in favor of Swarthmore might chaGga the Aspect of the game. In the meeting of Lafayette and Wash, ington an. Jefferson two teams with un- b;emisned records will clash. Both have swept through two seasons without a defeat and the players and the playing method% close to the last word in football. iayette IS slight favorite hut the margin of advantage is so narrow if it's exists at all, that the elevens may be said to be evenly matched. Ultra modern play will prooably feature the I contest and the game should develop
 some sensational football if the team plays up to their regulations.
 CorneF, on its seasons form, should
 d3feat Columbia, ana the size of the
 score will depend upon the mood of the
 Ithaca combination and Coach DobIe's
 instructions, Dartmouth is not expected
 to have diffr-ufty in winning from Bos-
 ton university, and Pittsburgh should
 defeat Geneva. The Lehigh-Colgate
 Georgtown-Holy Cross, and Amherst.
 Wesleyan games, on the other hand, are
 likely to be close and fought out tc
 the final period with little advantage
 to one team or the oIner.
