 A Week of Upscts.
 Last week was week of surprises in the team play. Yale, which for the last two years has played the role or the under dog in a tournament in its first league game on Friday night defeated Cornell by score of 30 to 27. Joe Fogarty and Billy Kincaid, lately of Pennsylvania, have taken Captain Conklin and Baither from last years team, Suisman from the 1925 fresh- men team and brought Pite and Git litz out of retirement and moulded them in five which might succeed to Princetons title, the miracle team"
 The system, employed a year ago by Bernie Trommers and Orson Kin ney at Yale. did not produce satis- factory results. Some blamed the ma terial for the team looked awkward and clumsy. But Fogarty has taken much the same material and turned out a team now rated with the best in the league.
 Basketball followers will watch the Pennsylvania team closely in its fu- ture games. Fogarty was frequently called the man behind the Penn teams" It is thought by some that only politics around West Philadel- phia had kept him out of head coach ing position. The Red and Blue has a chance to prove the weight of that persistent rumor.
 Penn Needs Foul Shooter.
 Princeton easily defeated Penn on Saturday night in the Weightman hall gymnasium at Philadelphia. Gold blatt, who had been considered an other Danny McNichol only made four foul goals on IS attempts. The Quakers will hardly figure in the race unless Eddie McNichol develops de- pendable foul shooter.
 The Yale victory and the Pennsyl- yania showing were not the only sur rrises of the week. Columbia, with two defeats, won from Dartmouth, ''the best Dartmouth team in year." in an easy fashion. The Dartmouth offense could do little with Bob Pull layn and Cort Wilson, trailing the ball like hawks. Strom, PulIeyn and Wilson ,1each scored four field goals.
 Princeton is in a dominating posi- tion, but the rejuvenation of Yale and | Columbia, the possibilities of Dart mouth, Cornell and Pennsylvania give promise of the best competition in years.
 The individual scoring follows:
