New York, Nov. 3 tF}-Phys;caly fit and grimly defiant. eeven Har- ward huskies sought therest today that will give them the inal ,dss for Princeton. a team int in the past has made football erergencies famo ous by rising 10 them
 A roaring undergraduate demon- stration sent the Princetm eleven off to Cambridge last nint 10 tho chant of Tiger, Tiger Burning Bright amid the firm onviction that everything was "JAe" with the jungle cats. Once mort the odds favor Harvard and again lake Sla- gle. the triple threat. is 1t for tho fray, a combination of cicumstan- ces that has preceded overwhelming Princeton victories in the last two clashes of the histori Big Three rivals.
 Slagle is bunting agah with old- time vigor and power aser three week lay off from injures and his short flashing passes are Tipping over the line again with deadly ac- curacy. All the floundeing of tho Princeton team that lost to Navy. was held to a tie by Washington Ss Lee, and barely defeated Amherst and Lchigh, is forgotten by Prince ton men who believe tle Tigers on Saturday will rise to traditional heights for the Big Three season cl- max.
 One of the most remarkable de- velopments in football history has brought Harvard to favoritism for the first two games of the season, day-by-day absorption of coa,hing sent an improved team into the fray on each successive Saturday. A hap hazard line and weak attack against Geneva grew to a mighty forward wall and driving attack that smoth- cred Tufts 69 10 last week.
 Few other clashes stand out on Saturdays card.
 The Pennsylvania squad is inhal- ing quantities of salt air at golf club on the Jersey coast and limber- ing up muscles for the drive against Penn State. The Blue and White outfit is quartered in Philadelphia, eager to wipe out past defeats in the struggle of the great rivals there Saturday.
 New York University is in tip-top shape, with silk pants nicely brush ed, for the hardest assignment of the year against Carnegie Tech. Syracuse has mastered the intricate Georgetown plays that have proven troublesome in the weeks practice and Pittsburgh's powerful eleven is on edge for West Virginia, defeated only by Missouri this season.
 Silk pants, inaugurated by Knute Rockne to add speed to his Notre Dame team, have gained another convert in Holy Cross. which tackles Fordhain. Boston College, one of the undefeated clan, is primed for tiff opposition from the doughty Villa Nova youths.
 Second teams are likely to get tTe call when Army squares off aninst Franklin < Marshall. Col ga,e tackles Providence College, Br,wn engages Norwich, and Lafay- ettt answers the whistle against Rutgers. Columbia fears the passes of William and Mary and Navy mus. face West Virginia Wesleyan, the eleven that marred the Boston College uncrossed goal line last Sat- urday. Yale has an intersectional, but moderately weak foe in Nary land. Dartmouth has a breather in Boston University, and Cornell can afford to experiment against St. Bonaventure.
