 Of Week-End Features

New York, Oct. % P-Rousing
 sendoffs sped pigskin knights on their way 10 weekend battlefelds
 throughout the east today as their
 hosts-to-be quietly groomed ranks
 to meet the invaders.
 The feeling of optimism at Har-
 ward, where a rising Crimson tide
 daily gains in confidence power and coordination after the poorest start in Harvard grid history. has been | dampencd somewhat by the loss of 1 Leo Daley. veteran lineman. Fear is felt that Daley, threatened again i with appendicitis. not only cannot face Dartmouth Saturday but must remain on the sidelines for the rest of the season.
 Dartmouth's Outlook Dartmouth is fin town again" for q light drill amid the tricky air | currents of the Harvard Stadium to- | day to top off a week of funda- | mental drill. The Green defeat by Yale last week, has thrown the i | squad back three years to the point | where Dartmouth started the string l of victories that ended in the Yale l l Bowl the coaching staff believes. | The replacing of Captain Horton, 1 because of injury with Black, line ! 1 breaking sophomore, at fullback, is | the only chance anticipated in the | | Green lineup.
 Down At Yale
 The scrub line at Yale has been l holding the multitude of classy backs roaming the Eli greensward, but the Blue is certain that Brown, without Hodges and Gurney, veteran tackles, called home by illness. will not offer the difficulties found in its own family. Electric lights are flooding the field of play, however, 10 give the Ellis every possible mo- ment of practice and keep the team on the winning path to the eastern championship. Noble star of the Yale backfield cast, probably will see little action Saturday due 10 a bruised shoulder.
 A battle of Kisli Prep school | landed the center position for Howe over Bartel after two year strug- gle.
 Lehi9h'S Game
 Howe will have the call against Lehigh Saturday with Captain Davis back at guard in an effort to strengthen d line that has faltered woefully in early games. Lehigh has lost four straight contests and the Tigers expect to work the sub stitutes overtime if opportunity pre- sents itself.
 Navy backs must be seeing for ward passes sailing by and over their heads even during sleeping hours this week as q result of the Middle drills for Colgate's coming. The New York eleven has a superlative air attack and although rain and snow have hampercd Colgate prac- tces, all available time has been spent developing the weapon while Navy, just as strenuously drilled to prepare for it.
 Pcnn's Condition
 Pennsylvania, looming as a fit challenger to Yale supremacy in the cast. is planning 10 send full quota of regulars against Williams 10 bring the hidden ball attack to per lection for Illinois the following week. The squad is in the best Of condition.
 Nothing of serious threat is seen at West Point in the Boston Uni versity advance on Army. The coaches therefore have the subs ready for almost constant action with the heavy artillery held for use only if needs safety of the regulars ; for the Yale clash the following week seems more important to the coaches than a high score Saturday. Coach Crowley. at Columbia, feels the same way about the duke en- here, for Cornell, with a weeks rest and no game this week, on the horizon. Subs are duo to get the call against the in Columbia's second in ttrnalional tilt in two weeks.
 New York University with visions of the first victory over Rutgers since 1910 in sight will throw the regular lineup that smashed Tulane against the New Jersey eleven. N. Y. |. plays have been the diet of a reyampcd Rutgers team with long drills driving the men in quest of still another triumph over the great rival.
