Against Marquette and Princeton
the Navy played good foot ball for
large portion of the game. but
wore itself out because 1t had no
open attack, and continual line plug
ging proved exhausting. In both
cases, the Navy's opponents opened
up in the final quarter and found the
m1dshipmen helpless against bril-
llant attack. and still more unable to
deliver telling offensive strokes.
Winning Spirit Wanted.
While all agree that everything
should be subordinated to success
against the Army, there are many
who believe that this would be rem
dered more likely by giving the team
a thorough equipment as early as
possible and making a desperate ef
fort to win all games. They believe
that the team should acquire the
habit of victory if possible.
1t Is also pointed out. that in order
to acquire proficiency in the passing
game, as much use of it as possible
against strong opponents is neces-
sary, and that there is little hope of
successful use of it if tried against
so strong team as the Army for
the first time.
Besides its inadequate equipment
for the attack, the Navv team hoe
certain glaring weaknesses. chief
among which is its failure TO aell
effectively with any sort of high
grade open attack, either of the pass
ing kind or through the end runs of
skillful back. Up to the present,
this season, and generally in recent
years, Navy teams have been weak
against such attacks.
The kicking game of the Navy
team, except as to Shapley's place
ment kicking for moderate distances.
Is poor. Chillingworth, who does
most of the punting. can cover long
distances. but is poorly protected. so
that his kicks are in danger of being
blocked, and, if not, are generally so
crowded that both distance and direc-
tion are limited. Another defect is
that, up to the present, the falling
back of Chillingworth from his line
position has always meant that he
VIII punt, so that the opponents know
just what to expect.
Navy Loses on Kfck-of.
The Navy has lost materially on
the kick-offs as a rule. tIippen,
performing this office against Prince
ton sent low, hard kicks, so that the
Princeton back had the ball quickly
and could return it for a much
greater distance than the Navy backs
ever returned the kicks they received.
There are, in fact, many rough places
ard deficiencies in the play of the
Midshipmen up to this time.
The Navy team has, however. two
very notable elements of strength

ANNAPOLIS. Md, October 23.-
Princeton and the Navy will play
again next year. The game will take
place at Annapolis and will be the
big home contest for the midship-
men. The terms under which these
teams will continue to meet have not
been announced. but it is believed
that the Navy will go to Princeton
again in 1926. Rumors that Prince
ton had used undue roughness in the
game Saturday, based on the many in
juries received by Navy players, were
most emphatically denied by Navy
players. The various marks of the
fray are regarded as simply incidents
of a hard-fought but sportsmanlike
contest.

But foot ball games between intellf-
gent teams are subject to emotional
influences sometimes stronger than
the physical Princeton and Notre
Dame elevens always have been in
struments upon which enthusiasm and
spirit played.
Notre Dame, with physical odds
in its favor, has no great urge to
excite it's spiritual quality; Princeton
has, and every wave of information
that comes from the Tiger camp in
dicates that Princeton is doing it.
The Princeton champion of 1922
crossed Chicago in their campaign to
final victory after a sensational sea
son, which earned for the eleven the
title of team of destiny" Bill Roper
and all of the tradition of Prince
ton are now working to instill the
same spirit; and from the Princeton
Notre Dame will be the Rubicon over
which the 1924 Tigers will cross to
another championship.
If Notre Dame enters the contest
emotionally cold against a group Of
mad jungle cats, the absence of Capt
Adam Walsh at center, acknowledged
bulwark of the line, may produce
crack through which a Princeton
team, averaging Is pounds more to
the man than the Hoosiers, might
rush to an early lead.
If such an event occurs the chasers
of gridiron thrills would be certain
of compensation; for Knut Rockne
would then be compelled to call into
play the full dazzle of his aerial
game which has never been revealed
to an eastern crowd; an amazing
gridiron spectacle when fired by the
spirit of an aroused Notre Dame
team.
Princeton has secuted every Notre
Dame contest of the season. Roper
has been quoted as saying that Crow

that Rockne will be forced to use the

"A comparison OF the rivals un-
covers galaxy of possibilities, but
none seems so important as the pos
sibility of the Blue and White for
ward line being unable to open gaps
for their two speed demons-Mike e
Gordon and Bob Williams Of what
use are two fleet runners if their
linemen fail to show the way? This
question is causing Central followers
much concern due to the inability
or the Eastern guards and tackles to
break the Maroon and Gray defense.
Tech Eleven Favored.
Some of the form sharks are in
ciined to give Tech the slight edge,
believing the Manual Trainers severe
beating of Eastern warrants such a
stand. In fact, it does appear that
the Techites have the more powerful
forward wall. but in the backfield it
is different question. Mike Gordon
and Bob Williams are the speediest
backs in the high schools. OF course,
their ability to gain yardage will be
considerably diminished If their line
men fail to function properly.
However. the possibility of Gordon
and Williams running wild, as they
cid against tho University of Mary
land freshmen, may force Coach Ell
mer Hardell of the Maroon and Gray
to appoint one single Techite whose
main duty it will be to stop these
structcd Charley Pugh along these
lines last year and Gordon could not
make much headway.
High school followers know that
if Gordon and Williams face a clear
field against Tech, Central will cross
the Maroon and Gray goal. This
Hardell, though, may uncover some
- 1t, Il,
who is well onto his defensive game
and who can cope with the Central
gridmen. That person may be Rever-
dy Jones, who is the fastest player in
the Tech squad.
While Tech is worrying over Cor
don and Williams Central also needs
TO do some thinking about Parsons
and Kessler, whose drives against
Eastern were big factors in their
teams first victory in the high school
series. The Maroon and Gray run
ners have been well trained offensive
ly and they showed Eastern some
thing about advancing the pigskin.
Tomorrw's game will be Centrars
debut in the 1924 series, but the
eleven has prepared itself in prac-
tice matches against Dewitt Prep,
Swavely Prep and the University Of
Maryland freshmen. The Techites
have met the Maryland yearllngS,
Baltimore City College and Episcopal
High, as well as Eastern in the high
school series.
Schools Great Rivals.
Greater rivalry exists between Gen.
tral and Tech than any of the other
high schools In 1922 the Blue and
White achieved a 12-to-6 victory, but
Tech came into its own last year
by attaining a 16-to-0 triumph. The
match annually attracts several thou
sand persons drawn from the student
bodies and alumni. No foot ball
scene is more colorful and none Is
backed by more inspiring tradition
than Central-Tech struggle. A
record crowd is expected to jam the
concrete tiers of Central Stadium
tomorrow.
Probable line-ups for the two teams
have been announced as follows:
Tech-Jett, left end; Moreland, left
tackle; Mcdonald or Goettleman. left
guard; Pugh or Rice, center; Dulin.

Usually the victory of the Tech

not the case this year, for Western
