the shadowy goal of eastern gridiron
supremacy spurs on a good shar OF
the football forces that come to grips
this Saturday along the Atlantic sea-
board.
Early season setbacks already
have unexpectedly blasted the hopes
of some of those usually in the fore
most rank but in the dwindling ar
raw of contenders, no less than SIX
teen undefeated squads carry on
with the prospect that continued sue
cess will entitle them to at least a
portion of the sectionel glory when
final results are tabulated.
or this list, however, only hand
full of major elevens remain to merit
consideration in the main struggle
to reach the peak. OF these the
Army and Cornell face the biggest
threats to their unbeaten marches

pectively. Dartmouth and Syracuse,
two others in the top flight, face
stout rivals in Brown and Penn State

VIGOROUSLY by decisive margins.
Pennsylvania. meets a strong inter-
sectional rival in Illinois.
Cornell and Syracuse share with
Bucknell and New York University
another distinction-that OF having
uncrossed goal lines-which they VIII
attempt to retain in spite OF sturdy
opposition this week.
In facing Columbia, tho scholar
athletes of Gil Dobie meet their first
big test of the season. While the
Ithacans will be favorites, it would
not be surprising to see Columbia
seriously menace the Cornell goal
line. Cornell boasts more power

the faster set of backs
Syracuse faces Hugo Bezdek's
Nittany Lions, conquerors of western
opponents in Marietta and the
Michigan Aggies. The Penn State
record has been besmirched by 10
to Z defeat by Georgia Tech but the
Orange clad eleven will be forced
to display power heretofore hidden
to tame them.
Bucknell will engage with Holy
Cross, as the under dog. the New
England eleven being favored by
most critics to conquer the Bisons
in a game which brings two nude
feated elevens together. Bucknell
squeezed out a 3 to 2 victory over
Georgetown last week, a notable ac-
Movement, but in Holy Cross the
Bisons face an undefeated combin-
alton and one which owered the
Crimson of Harvard.

last important workout today in pre-
paration for the battle with the
Army at the Bowl Saturday. San
Gill, left end, was injured in scrim-
mage yesterday and was replaced by
Scott today, but Gill will be in the
lineup Saturday. Al Foote is prac-
tically sure to start in Kline's place
at right halfback. Kline's shoulder
being in bad condition. Ben Cutler,
the other halfback, who was de-
clared early in the week. to be in no
condition to play against the Army,
was in uniform today, but did not
take part in the signal drill or the
dummy scrimmage. There Is a
chance, however, that his side injury
will permit him to get into the game
against the Army.

elevens in the weekend football en-
gagements. ~<a
In the two leading clashes of the
East, the Pennsylvania Illinois
meeting at Philadelphia and the
Yale-Army battle at New Haven, in
jury plays an exceptionally large
part. The ,undefeated Quakers, fac
ing the second invasion from the
West in two weeks and one which
brings the powerful Red Grange to
the East for the first time, must
play without Kruez and Fields, two
backs who had a large share in
downing Brown and Yale. Long,
weighing 16S pounds, will substitute
for Kruez.
Yale faces the Army with Cutler
and Kline. two of it's luminaries of
the baclxfield, forced to the sidelines,
while Butterworth, a tackle, also is
out of the running.
Brown, too, coming up to MS an
nual game with the Big Green of
Dartmouth, is shattered in the for
d
tackle, is expected to resume acti-
witty. Hodge, who played center
against Yale, and Magee, tackle,
probably are out for the remainder
of the season.
The Navy sails into snow blank
eted West with the strongest eleven
1t can produce to meet Michigan at
Ann Arbor on what promises to be
field of snow. The Middies will
work on the Michigan field tomor-
row and at the same time Army will
be maneuvering in the Bowl at New
Haven and Illinois will be busy at
Franklin Field, Philadelphia. in pre-
paration for the next days tussles.
Columbia and Cornell are primed
for struggle in New York with the
lthacaus warned to watch the fast
moving Captain Pease. Cornell has
powerful line and if Wester returns
to the backfield, as expected, the
team will be in superb condition af-
ter two weeks rest.
Columbia may resort to the open
play which Dartmouth used with
great success against Cornell at the
Polo grounds a year ago.
Harvard is likely to enter the con-
test with William and Mary at Cam
bridge with a somewhat revamped
lineup. In practice yesterday Cap

that he will not start the contest.
Calkins has returned to call sig
nails for Princeton after injuries suf-
fered early in the season and un-
doubtedly will see service against
Swarthmore.
Syracuse, with its goal line unfair
nished, is expected to have little
trouble with Penn State, as the Nit
tany Lions have been beaten by
Georgia Tech and in their other
games have faced small colleges.
Syracuse has piled up 153 points

protoplasmic man, having dangling
tentacles which afterwards evolved
into arms and legs. Lacking ordi-
nary means of communication, the
creature used telepathy.
Later stages of evolution came
when the two hero gods answered
the prayers of this lowest form of
man and gave him grain of corn
to plant. The grain grew through
the ceiling of the cave, pushed
through three higher caves and
reached the earths surface. AS the
Indian followed the stalk of corn,
he acquired speech, sight and smell
and gained the knowledge of good
and evil.
In one of the caves long tail be-
came part ofthe mans body. He lost
it when he attained the surface. The
myth of the tail is interesting, as the
Indians Knew nothing of the monkey
family.
