Yale Shows, Great Possibilities
Dartmouth In Intersec-
tional Tilt-Harvard Pitted
Against Holy Cross

New York, Oct 4.-[P)-wfth the
eastern football campaign gaining
steady momentum as feature games of
the season approach, scores of elevens
are buckling down to strenuous work
this week in preparation for the con-
fiicts of the coming Saturday.
The shock upset of Harvard in the
opening game against Geneva, a defeat
never before duplicated in the open
ing game on the Crimson schedule,
has shown the need of exhaustive drill
at Cambridge if the new regime of Ar
mold Horween is to be dedicated with
anything but disaster. The baptism
of punishment. meted out by the pow
erful Pennsylvanians in the 16 to 7
triumph may mold the green Crimson
combination into a formidable oppo-
nent for the husky Holy Cross aggre-
cation next Saturday.
Yale, cruising to a one-sided 81 to
win over Boston University, showed
big, strong team that will polish
this week into an even more formid-
able weapon for use against Georgia,

Claim Harvard Not In Sym
pathy With Plan-Effeet On
Other Games Not Known

New Haven, Conn. Oct. 49,
Beginning with this years game,
Yale and Princeton will go into their
traditional battle on the gridiron
prepared to meet whatever the op-
posing team has to offer without
benefit of pre-game scouting, ac-
cording to an agreement between
the two institutions.
The agreement which is printed
today in the Yale Daily News and
the Daily Princetonian, says that
no member of the coaching staff or
others Unidentified with either team
will see the other team in any game
prior to the e-Princeton game.
1t is believed that the pact is the
result of feeling that scouting of
rival teams was tending to remove
the sporting aspect of football. T.
A. d. Jones, head coach of the
Blue. who signed the agreement for
Yale, has attacked the scouting
evil'' on several occasions because it
was an unnecessary complication
which did not benefit the sport"
w. w. Roper, Princeton's head
coach, signed for the Orange and
Black.
Harvard is said to have been ask
ed to join in the accord, but it is
understood that the new coaching
regime at Cambridge was not in
sympathy with the plan. Whether
the expected break between Prince
ton and Harvard next year when
the University of Michigan may re-
place Princeton on the crimson
schedule also had a bearing on the
attitude of Harvard toward the
agreement is not known here.
In the past Yale has followed the
general practice of sending scouts to
report on almost all its strong OPP
ponents. They brought back in
formation as to star players Yale
would face, how these men played
their positions, how they could be
stopped and what weaknesses should
be exploited by the Ellis to win.
AS far as possible the favorite
formations were recorded and the
next week Yale scrub elevens would
become Princeton" Harvard, "
THE Army" or some other eleven
Yale was to meet. The scrubs would
be trained in the tactics of the team
they represented and then sent
against the varsity. When an op-
ponent was reported to be especially
proficient in aerial attack, the daily
practices sighted the work on line

FUTURE OF SOCCER
WILL Be DECIDED
WEDNESDAY NIGHT

Soccer enthusiasts. former play
ers and those who desire to learn
the game will gather at the Y. NJ. C.
A. on Wednesday evening at seven
o'clock to talk the matter over with
Jack Mahan, Physical Director of the
Y. NJ. c. A. who is interested in
forming a team here. Mr.. Mahan
believes that with the several for
mer players he has already inter-
viewed to form a nucleus, he can
build up team in Augusta that will
give other Soccer outfits some real
trouble. Arrangements have been
made to have the use of the Muster
field at Camp Reyes if the team is
formed.
AS a result of an article appearing
in a recent issue of the Kennebec
Journal, with regard to the proposed
formation of this team. Mr. Mahan
has recently received the following
most interesting letter from a Maine
minister who has played the game
from childhood:
Dear sir:

bee Journal about your interest in

SPORT
CHAT

Pat French and his Lewistonians are
the next visitors at Williams Field.
The Spindle City crew has hung UP an
enyiable record during the past few
years, but Cony in the past has made
very good showings against them. The
defeat at the hands of Skowhegan has
brought home to the Cony team the
fact that they must work, and work
hard. The Red and White should
make much better showing Saturday
against Lewiston than they did against
the Somerset agreation.
Football scouting is the latest
branch OF the game to be given
thorough overhauling both pro and
con. Yale and Princeton have signed
an agreement to the effect that they
Will play each other this year without
knowing anything about each others
attack or defense. Harvard wanted to
investigate before she signed such an
agreement and so the third member of
the Big Three is free to look over both
the Bulldog and the Tiger. After
Harvard's showing so far this year it
is safe TO say that they will need all
the knowledge of Yale formations
that it is possible to obtain.
The recent gossip concerning Har-
ward to the effect that Harvard might
drop Princeton from her schedule and
take on a western college must have
some foundation. If Harvard does cut
Frlnceton from her schedule Dart
mouth would fill in very acceptably as
a member of the Big Three. The big
Green has been playing some wonder
tui football and is perhaps more fitted
70 play In the Big Three than the
Crimson, which for the past few years
mas been rich in traditions, college
spirit and practically everything ex-
eept the athletic ability to keep a
winning football team.

performer the Red and White will not
