New York, Nov. 17.-tP)-The
Mud and Water" classic that has
been the annual Harvard-Yale bat
tie In recent seasons will not flnd
the Eli warriors unprepared II
curtain of moisture again covers the
battle-ground on Saturday
The strongest Yale array of the
season. with every casualty but
Valdwell back in the fold, is taking
full advantage OF the sea of mud at
Pratt field to run plays with a slip
perry ball in the uncertain footing
that marked the struggles of 1879
and 1924. Both Noble and Kline,
hackfield powers. are taking part IN
the long drills for the final game OF
the last Big Three series.
Behind barred gates at Cam
bridge, Harvard Is plugging at the
task of reorganizing in a week an
eleven that has met defeat on four
occasions this season. Yale, like
wise, has been conquered four
times. but the most disastrous sea-
son for either in the past III years
can be frightened considerably by
victory Saturday despite Princeton's
complete domination of the final Sc
rtes.
Army and Navy, taking the con-
tests with Ursinus and Loyola as
mere incidents in the preparation
for the annual service classic in
Chicago, Nov. q, are settling down
already to work for victory in the
battle that will give either a claim
to the eastern title challenged only
by Brown. The Bear, similarly, Will
take the New Hampshire game in
stride Saturday while looking ahead
to the Colgate meeting on Thanks
giving day.
New York University's undefeated
Violets set sail today on the first
excursion of the eleven into the
West for the intersectiona1 battle
with Nebraska at Lincoln, Saturday.
Lafayette, the only other indicated
and united eleven in the East, pre-
pared to complete most success
full season with the weak Lehigh
outfit.
Despite Georgetown spectacular
showing against Navy, Fordham is
confident of taking the measure of
the Hilltoppers with a versatile
game that is being ironed to per-
lection this week. West Virginia
has two more rugged obstacles to
face, Carnegie Tech on aSturday and
washington ana Jefferson, lnankS-
giving, but other major elevens have
minor quarrels or wait entirely UNI
til Thanksgiving before again taking
to the gridiron. Syracuse plays Nj
aeara, Holy Cross tackles Boston
University, and Boston College meets
Providence this weekend.
Colgate rests for Brown on the
holiday when Pennsylvania Cornell,

Philadelphia, Nov. 17.-(PJ- John
"Stuffy' Mclnnis, newly appointed
manager Of the Phillies, one of the
six teams that next year will take
orders from new field bosses. does
not promise championship team for
1927, but he does promise one that
he expects to find better berth than
seventh or eighth position in the
league standing.
player of distinction for II years
in the American and National league,
McInnis is having his first experience
as manager. He has not announc-
ed his exact plans for rebuilding the
Phillies, but he had a number OF
deals in mind that he will try to
close at the National league meeting
in Chicago next month.
Mind you, I am not claiming the
pennant," McInnis said today after a
two-day conference with president
Baker, but / can see where some
improvement can be made. The race
next year in the National league
ought to be an open one with five or
six teams real contenders." &c.,.
McInnis believes the Phillies al
ready possess the spine of a real
team and he said it was his intention
to try to encourage the men whom
he desires to keep and make them
feel that they are needd"
While intimating that he was look
ing for new third baseman, he did
not say what changes he expected to
make.
Pitchers, he said, would receive his
greatest attention and he is anxious
to get several young but promising
hurlers. He has Bakers permission
to pick his own coach, but will not
make his decision for a while.

N. Y. University Off
To Play Nebraska
Coming SATURDAY.

New York, Nov. 17.-(P>-New
York University's unbeaten football
team sped westward tonight on a
two-fold mission.
Not only will Chick Meehan's
warriors seek victory next Saturday
against the Nebraska cornhuskers as
a fitting climax to Violet's most sue
cessful season in gridiron history,
but there also will be a defensive
record to uphold. In their march to
eight straight triumphs thus far. the
Gotham gridders have yielded but ten
points to their opponents fear
which ranks second only to the per-
Torrance of Notre Dame.
Although there Is little more than
traditional satisfaction left for Yale
and Harvard, there is no sign Of
waning interest In their annual
struggle on aSturday which will
draw capacity thron~ to the New
Haven bowl, 1t was indicated today.
A radical shakeup In the Harvard
team leaves the Crimson lineup in
doubt, with Madison Sayles the only
back apparently certain Of starting.
Cambridge reports indicate that
Coach Horween may decide upon
Jake Stafford as field general instead
Of Putnam, while Chauncey. the
Crimson's talented kicker. Is expected
to see more action than hitherto.
Yale's position as favorite appears
justified by comparative records,
Against both Princeton and Brown
the Ell team displayed firmer de-
Tense and more powerful attack
| than the Crimson, but in some quar-
tiers the battle was looked upon as a
toss-up.

ADDITION HARVARD
Will GIVE penn
RUGGED Slate

Philadelphia, Nov. 17-[P)-The re-
sumption of football relations with
Harvard will bring five major oppon-
ents to Franklin Field next fall and
give the University OF Pennsylvania
football team one of its hardest
schedules in years. In addition to the
home games, the Quakers will meet
the University of Chicago in Chicago.
The tentative schedule provides for
games with Brown and the Navy,
both so far undefeated this year, Cor
NELL traditional rival of the red and
blue; Columbia, Lehigh, Swarthmore
and Franklin and Marshall In addi-
ton to Harvard and Chicago.
Coach Lou Young appeared greatly
pleased that gridiron battle had been
arranged with the Crimson.
II have always wanted to play
Harvard and I am glad the chance
has come while I am coach" he said
today. 1 think the game will help
both Pennsylvania and Harvard and
it ought to bring one of the real fall
classics to Philadelphia. Pennsyl-
vania's stadium with its $4,000 seats
will provide an ideal place for the
contest" ~,

Harvard and Yale are hooking UP
In their annual football duel Satur-
day. The game will attract many
teams have been beaten plenty this
year. However, one thing was not
iced In the sale of the tickets this
season. The usual rush for tickets
was not as large as usual and denot-
Cd an obvious lack Of interest on the
part of many Of the fans.
Princeton breaking with Harvard
was perhaps the best thing that
could have happened for football in
the east. A permanent break be-
tween the two schools would mean
the passing of the Big Three and the
teams at Yale, Harvard and Prince
ton would necessarily have to take
on another good opponent to fill the
vacant date. Several authorities on
the game have suggested a confer
once and this would also tend to
Arouse more interest in the game.
A conference resembling the Bis
zen IN the west and with Army,
Navy. Brown. Yale, Harvard. Prince
ton, Dartmouth, Cornell, New York
University and several Others on tte
list, would put these teams on a pre-
arranged schedule and undoubtedly

OIL SKINS LATEST
MATERIAL USED
FOR FOOTBALL TOGS

New York, Nov. 17-(Pl-The eyes
of old time football stars, whose raj
ment consisted of padding and more
padding in the days when grid war
fare was a herculean rough and
tumble contest of might alone, will
rub their eyes in amazement when
Syracuse takes the field against Col
umbia in the annual. Thanksgiving
Day game at the polo grounds.
If the starting whistle sounds
through raindrops, Coach Pete Rey-
nolds will send his warriors to the
fray attired in oil skin pants and thin,
flesh colored stockings. and even if
the weather is fair, the Syracuse stall
warts viii sport a combination of
their new trousers and ankle high
socks, with legs bare from ankle to
knee.
The Folly Girl" garb is the latest
evolution of the football uniform
which has already passed from the
protective to the speed stage this sea-
son. Knute Roclne clothed his team
several weeks ago in silk pants to al
low greater speed. "Chfck" Meehan
followed suit" at New York Univer-
sity and other coaches have since
fallen into line.
The most interested spectator, II he
could be relieved of his engagement
for the day against the Nebraska
eleven, probably would be Captain
Frank Briante. fullback OF the Kew
York forces. In one Of his initial
plunges the first time he sported his
new silk trousers, Briante was saved
from tragic embarrassment only by
the fast work of his mates in shield
ing him quickly when a rival Carne-
gle Tech line demonstrated that silk
pants are built for speed and not dur
ability.

|, Bridgton, Nov. 17-Bridgton
Academy believes it has as clear a
title to the mythical State Cham
pionship among the Preparatory
Schools in the State this fall in view
Of the fact that the team has not
been scored upon by a touchdown by
any school Except Fryeburg Acad-
envy who registered forward pass)
in the State. Biddeford High School
was the only Secondary School In
the State to score against the Br1dg-
ton eleven, and this by only field
goal, while Bridgton registered two
touchdowns against the same team.
The only two defeats suffered by
Bridgton this fall were at the hands
of the University of Maine Fresh
men and the st. Anslem's Prepare
tory College Team of Manchester, N.
H. In the opening game Of the year
the Bridgton team travelled to Pitts
field on a terrific hot day, and after
arriving there at noon. played as the
first game of the same M. c. /. and
twice came near scoring by having
the ball on their three yard line. In
the next game Bridgton tied Hebron
in a scoreless game at Hebron.
Against Fryeburg score of 81 to 3
was run up, while at Biddeford the
Bridgton team scored 1873 for win.
Kent's Hill was taken into camp to
a decisive score of 1870 while M. c.
I. allowed THIS team to score upon
them and won the game 14-6. Bridg-
ton has as yet to be defeated by any
school In the State to be scored upon
by other the forward pass which
was executed by Fryeburg and which
team Bridgton took into camp $50.
Bridgton has one Of the strongest
lines ever seen in the State and they
were not penetrated by any Prep
School in the State for a point. Many
times it was forced to within its five
yard stripe but time and again it
held and on several occasions for
four downs. In view of the fact that
Bridtgon Academy has not been de-
feated by any Maine Secondary
School and has not been scored upon
by ony of the leading contenders of
the State she feels as II she has a
titde of the State Champions and she
is recognizing the team as such, as
are many people who have seen
them play and are acquainted with
the quality Of this years aggrega-
ton.
