 football revenge throughout the east has lent hope 10 elevens ac- customed to taking yearly drub- pings from stronger rivals while teams with records as yet unsullied with defeat today are scanning schedules in search Of hidden mines.
 No last minute surge such as won tLe Dartmouth tilt could save Yale from the defeat Brown has dreamed of for 10 years, but always failed to accomplish. The Brunonians could whip Harvard and Harvard often could hammer Yale but somehow the wheels Of high-powered offen- sive machinery always failed to mesh and a rock-ribbed defense dwindled away when Brown trottcd into the Yale Bowl Saturday, however. the Brown forwards crushed the Eli line, speedy backs bored deep into the secondary defense and threw baffling passes for a ' to 0 victory that might have been two touch downs greater. Yale now faces the Army next week with a team almost shelved in the race for eastern championship honors. The powerful cadets, who swamped Boston Uni versity fl to 0, threatened to elim- mate the Ellis from consideration once and for all.
 Harvard, In defeating Dartmouth Is to F for the first time in four years, showed definite indications of coming greatness. A charging line that upset the Green attack and backs that for the first time this season took full advantage of oppor- tunities have made Crimson sup porters forget the sting of two early seasons defeats and look for fur finer glory against Tufts on Satur- day. Brown can complete the de- bacle being made of a Dartmouth season that started so promsinglv. by winning their annual struggle this week.
 Eleven colleges are undefeated In the east so far this season, but only one. Boston College, has kept rival cleats from its goal line. George town, with one loss. has scored the most points, 197; Pennsylvania, with five straight wins, has 1SS; Lafay- cite. New York University. Brown. Holy Cross West Virginia, Boston College, Cornell, Washington and Jefferson, Army, and Navy as well have yet to be beaten.
 Colgate. with a hair-breadth of consummation of long standing desire 10 trim the Navy, a victory snatched away by a 99-yard run for touchdown in the final minutes Of play. The day seemed doomed for the sailors until AIidshipmen Lloyd turned a probable to de- feat into a 13 to victory. Navy will have chance for revenge next week against the husky Michigan team, which last year battered the Middies for one of their worst de- feats in history. Colgate likewise branches out with a midwest for in Michigan State.
 Gratifying victory came to Syra- cuse in the 10 to defeat of Penn State. Although hampered by in ouries, and especially by the loss of "Whippet' Carr, who still leads eastern scorers with 59 points de- spite his inactivity, Syracuse had power enough left to plaster the second defeat Of the season on the Penn State record Both have breathers this week. if any team can be classed as such after Satur- days urheavals. Penn tackles George Washington and Syracuse Johns Hopkins.
 Pennsylvania definitely took the lead for eastern honors by sweep ing over Williams SC to 0. The great test of Penn ability however comes at Urbana Saturday when the Americans who do hidden ball tricks In the Penn backfeld match their trickery against Illinois and Frosty Peters, the firemen successor of Red Grange. who shared his football fame with his recognition as a noted tce-toter.
 Princeton, after narrow 7 to f nin over Iehigh team that now is possessed Of five straight defeats but much glory. has another pack age of dynamite next on tho sChed- ulc in Swarthmore. Lafayette, vic tor over Albright 90 to T faces q rival Of long standing. Washington and Jefferson. which swampcd Ford ham 22 to IT.
 New York University flushed with tha first win over Rutgers since 1910, and by "o to 2 margin, has Ford ham on 'hn slate this week. Cornell after weeks layoff gets hack into action against an ancient rival, Co., lumhia. The latter outfit roundlv trounced Duke, Saturday, q 10 q for tho second intnrscctional tri- umph in two weeks. Boston Co)ICce after whipping St Louis University et to o, takes on another in'rrsoc- tional rival in WrH Virginia Wos- l"van. Trr Holy Cross win over Western Maryland % to 14, fits the Massachusetts lf@n for Dayton Tni- vcrsity Pittsburgh, on the small
