Nle Attack Strong and Varied
 for P1nceton-Harvard Battles
Tad Jones Seems to Have Developed Powerful Eleven And Has Great Quarterback in Richeson and Won- derful Tackle in Milstead

Tad Jones. the much maliEned Tale coach, whole elevens have failed fin the pinch" of the Harvard and Prince- ton games, is at last satisfied he has . winner He has broken away from old style, line- batterins tactics and no eleven today presents . more varied style of attack than the Ellis.
 Triple Threat" Attack
 Playing most of his line plunges and end runs from a kick formation. with . direct pass to the ball carrier. Jones has built up a real triple threat" attack. For from this same kick formation the Ell backs boom their punts. their dropkicks and also turn 1t into the aerial game.
 To make such game a success re- quirea field generalship out of the ordinary. Jones has apparently un- earthed a brilliant quarterback in W. l.. Richeson, Jr., product of New Orleans Ua.) High school and pu- pill of pr. Billy Bull. This youngster ran his plays with judgment which brought success. mixing his line thrusts, end runs and overhead at- tacks so cleverly that Army, after the first half, was completely lost. Riche- son carries a ball well and his inter ception of forward passes was timely and important.
 Yale also flashed another luminary, this chap on the line of scrimmage-- where much of the best and most ef- fective work on the gridiron goes un- A years old more than six feet high and weighing 215 pounds. is the bul- wark of the Eli line. He is built of speed and not a pound of his 2i5 is fat. His play, to those who watched him closely. was a revelation of what a line man could do.
 Facing Milstead was Capt. Multi gan of the Army and twice in tho game Coach McEwan was forced to take his captain from the lineup, SO hard was the play of the Yale giant. Milstcad opened wide holes, through which the Blue back hurtled for big gains. He plowed through when on tho defense, smearing play after play and there was scarcely a tackle made on the line play in which he did not have g hand.
 Neidlinger. Neale, Mallory and Ste. yens were the strongest Yale backs and show that Tad Jones need not rely on one set to carry him through the tough weeks ahead. Luman and DeaVcr ends. are up to the 1922 form.
 In the two weeks that will elapse before the Princeton game at New Haven, Jones will have an opportnni- ty 10 bnild his defense little strong CT, for the Army. in the first half, managed to reel off four first downs, three by rushing and ono by forward passing. If Jones can do this and re- tain the scoring punch Yale seems certain Of Big Three" honors.
