Big Three start

New York, Oct. 6.---The first 1923 display of the Harvard, Yale and Princeton cridiron elevGns, each against small college opponent and the annual meeting of Pittsburgh and Lafayette in game which may figure in determining the so-called examina- ton football championship, lend im- portance to this afternoon't college | football.
 Of the big three teams Yale appears to have drawn the most difficult as- signment for it's opponent. North Carolina made considerable trouble for the Ellis last year and reports from the south indicate the tar heels are equally strong this season.
 Harvard's first foe, Rhode Island State already has tasted defeat and is not generally believed capable of fur nishing the Crimson very rugged op- position nor is Johns Hopkins thought sufficiently strong to force the Prince ton Tiger in the third engagement in volving a big three team.
 Other Important Games
 But football play of the most thrill ling quality seems assured the thous- ands who crowd the University of Pittsburgh playground to witness Glenn Warmers eleven in action against Doc Sutherlands Lafayette team. The fact Sutherland is to suc- ceed Warner as coach of Pittsburgh next season adds an unusual angle of interest to the engagement.
 Another game on today's list which will be followed with interest by en- thusiasts generally is that which Vir- ginia Military institute opposes Geor- gia Tech at Atlanta. Both teams an nually rank among the very strongest ir the south.
