New York, Sept. "a. - The war
riors of the sridiron tried out their
new moleskins Saturday. Next Sat
urday they will get down TO real
business, with prospects of brilliant
season ahead of them. 49,
For the benefit of the fan who has
forgotten about last years perform
ances, and who cannot decide what
games he wants to watch for. here
is birds eye view or the nations
gridirons for the next four weeks.
There are several games next
Saturday that should start the latent
thrills in the football heart. Buck
nell and Pittsburg meet at Lewisburg.
Chicago tackles the Michigan Aggies
at Chicago. Columbia plays Ursinus
in New York, and here we shall have
the first chance to see how Percy
Haughton is developing his material.
Worcester also will have n game worth
seeing when the New London Sub
marine team takes on Holy Cross,
for those New London Submarine
men have been developing in the
last year or two. Pennsylvania will
have a warm-up with Franklin and
Marshall at Philadelphia, and there
will be an intersectional game up at
West Point where the Academy team
takes on Tennessee. Tennessee, while
beaten by Vanderbilt last year. IA
to 6. had victories over the Univer-
sity of the South, is to Z, and over
Kentucky, II TO Z. Georgia beat
them in a hard game, z to 3. So
they will be fair opponents for this
early-in-the-season game.
Navy to Launch Season.
The Navy takes on William and
Mary at Annapolis. California be-
gins her season against st. Mary's
at Berkeley but. like Lafayette who
takes on Muhlenburg at Easton and
Penn State which takes on Lebanon
Valley ut State College, and SYRIA
cuse which meets Hobart mt SYRIA
cusc. and Washington and Jefferson
which meets Bethany at Washington,
they are taking on easy jobs.
The following Saturday, October q,
things will begin to open up with
even more vigor. Columbia has
game with Amherst in New York and
there we will get real line. George
town plays Quantico Marines at
Washington and that will be a good
game. Georgia Tech takes on Vir-
ginia Military Institute at Atlanta.
Harvard takes gentle warming up
with Rhode Island at Cambridge,
while Princeton should not have to
go too hard to defeat Johns Hopkins
at Princeton. Nor should Yale have
much difficulty with the University
OF North Carolina at New Haven.
In all these cases however, one may
learn something of the material avail
able for the big fellows. Lafayette
meets Franklin and Marshall at Eas-
ton.s Minnesota gets into action at
Minneapolis against Ames. as does
Michigan against Case at Ann Arbor.
The big game of the day will be
played at Pittsburg when Glenn War
ner's team will endeavor to take
revenge for last seasons defeat, 10,
at the hands of Lafayette. Palo Alto
has an intersectional game between
Stanford and Nevada. Syracuse will
furnish a little line, perhaps, against
William and Mary, the opponents of
the Navy the week before. Florida
comes up TO West Point 10 play the
Army and Dickinson will be the
Nays opponent on the same day.
Although Washington and Lee has
lost several good players, Heisman's
Washington and Jefferson team will
get a chance to try its full hand out
that day at Washington. Penn.
Harvard Takes IL Easy.
We now come to the mid-October
date, Saturday, the 18th, with Har-
ward still not in violent action, but
playing Middlebury. Princeton has
little stronger opponent in George
town, while Yale takes on the Uni
versity of Georgia at New Haven.
Pittsburg, however, has another fine
game, Warmers team meeting West
Yirginia-another opportunity for
revenge. Centre, which began the
Saturday before by warming up
