Both teams have eliminated all
other possible contenders for the
title the Delaware City lads, win
ming their way TO the finals by TAX

Word from the Fort last night
was 10 the effect that 500 wearers
OF the olive drab uniform will take
adva ntage of the excursion train to
New York Sunday morning. and at
least 400 Delaware City followers
OF the Fitzpatrick combine intend
making the trip. The excursion will
leave the P, b. and W. station at
$50 a. m. and will return from
New York at 7.45 p. m. The Fort
authorities have arranged with the
railroad officials for the necessary
accommodation for at least 1000
fans.
The Fort was put through a
strenuous workout yesterday after
noon and will be drilled again today
tomorrow and Friday. and will wind
up its preliminary work with a sig
nal workout Saturday morning. Few
of the players are suffering i'll ef-
fects Of the Fort Jay game although
II was one of the toughest battles Of
the season. Fitzpatrick will take a
squad OF 80 men to Fort slocum
and the rooters will be accompanied
by the Fort DUPONT band of 25
pieces.

Often two or three possibilities pre-
sented themselves as a solution. Be
fore the play would be pulled
would invariably say to Sprackling:
"well. Earl, what play would you
call IL you were out there directing
the team ?"
Sprackling seldom made a mis-
take OF football judgment when he
was a star After Buell. left the
game, the Harvard quarters who
succeeded him didn't always do what
Sprackling figured was the best play.
1 might add that the Harvard quar-
ters were wrong. not Sprackling.
Several times the Princeton quar-
ter didn't do just as Earl figured he
would. on one occasion, after
Snively had thrown a long forward
pass that was grounded, Sprackling
remarked:
THAT is a dangerous play. I am
a bit surprised Princeton is using it.
