The Washington herald., 1922-10-10

Two stout-hearted machines this
coming Saturday are to travel well
over a thousand miles each to test
the prowess of two OF the strong
four teams involved. by a quaint
coincident, three are coached by
Middle West. is coming 1900 miles
gurn. from the southern part of
burn.from the southern part of
Alabama, is moving 1000 miles lon
gitudinally to exchange football art
with West Point. Iowa and Yale
are coached by the Jones broth
ers. OF Yale. and Auburn is under
the guidance Of Mike Donohue. an
other Yale product of twenty years
ago.
The Double International.
We have here the two-ply inter-
sectional test. with both West and
South tossed in against the East.
Certainly no two teams upon the
same weekend have covered a
greater amount Of United States
territory than Iowa and Auburn
will cover in their next engage
ments.
And while this is taking place
Michigan will leave Ann Arbor
for Nashville. where the wolver-
ines dedicate the big Vanderb II
Stadium, now the finest athletic
structure in the South.
Big Family Day.
All in all. Saturday will be the
largest family day of the football
year.
While brother Howard Jones is
meeting brother Tad Jones at New
Haven. brother-in-law Fielding H
Tost will be enCaging brother-in-
law Daniel McGugin at Nashville.
Father Charlie Moran's Centre
College team annihilated son Tom
Moran's team short while back,
showing the intimate zone which
the fall pastime IS reaching.
For that matter both Yale and
West Point will be in for a tidy bit
OF intimate battling before they
emerge with victor es. Iowa isn't
the Iowa of a year ago with the
two Devines. Slater and Belding
missing. But Iowa will be strong
enough to make Yale play a lot of
football. and Captain Locke at full
back Will give the Yale line a busy
afternoon. In the same way Au-
burn. sometimes known as Ala
bama Polytechnic, is coming Ia
West Point with a big, seasoned
team that will be stronger defens-
lively than on attack.
No. S-Syracuse.
Syracuse for the last two years
has had a habit of bucking up in
some game without presenting any
warning.
Last fall she collapsed against
Pittsburgh and was beaten IS to 0
when the odds looked to be her
way
team to take in any light-hearted
youngest Of the college coaches, is
looking for no such crash this
fall.
His prospects are bright for a
strong team. and he will need n
strong team with the schedule he
faces. which for the remainder of
the way includes Brown, Pitts
burgh. Penn State, Nebraska, Nc
Gill and Colgate.
Meehan is bank ng heavily upon
his backfield array, where he has
Anderson. Kellogg. Trout. Mcbride.
zimmerman, Bowman, Simmons and
Frugonne, enough material for two
good backfields.
He believes he has a star quar-
terback in Simmons, who IS fast,
brainy and strong.
Syracuse should have one of the
leading stars of the East in An
derson, a back who can kick and
run. He looks to be an excep-
tional artist in every way. The
main idea now is to get the right
line. The material at hand is
strong and heavy. but a bit green,
although Captain Culver, at CEN
ter will have a steadying influ-
ence over his forward flock. All
in all. Syracuse should have a fine
year in spite of decidedly strong
opposition. Her game with Penn
State at the Polo Grounds will be
one of the feature engagements.
Just at present Syracuse has her
gaze focused on the Pittsburgh
game at Syracuse on October 81.
Recalling the terrific lac,ng re-
ceived at Pittsburgh last fall, one
can't very well blame SYRACUSE for
