N0TRE DAME WILL HAVE HARD FIGHT
Tackles Georgia Tech-Big Ten
 Contests Also Important

Atlanta, Ga, Oct. 2S P Georgia Tech packers conceded to- day that the team had only an out- side chance to win from NotGA Dame at South Bend. but the team has shown occasional flashes of such class this year that its supporters held 10 the hope that the prestige of the south would be strengthened by q strong showing Saturday.
 The Georgia Tech squad was due 10 reach Chicago this afternoon in time for brief practice there be- fore attending an alumni dinner and then going on to South Bend.
 The Golden Tornado has fought crratically this year. When the teaIu had its back 10 the wall it seemed to play tirst-rate football, although at tunes, in mid field, it's showing has been poor
 The line, with Puud, Crowley. Hood and Drcnnon as its principals, particularly has shown an ability to stifion close to the goal when oppon- ents threaten to score.
 Early in the season predictions were made that Tech would have an off year because of the prepondcr- ance Of youthful sophomoros, but the youngsters came ahead faster than Coach Alexander thought pos siblc. As q result there will be d rush of fresh capable men into the Tech line when the Notre Dame presses
 The same for the backficld. At the beginning Of the Y. NJ. l. game Tornado followers sat back and saw another year of defeats ahead. Then two slight figures went into the hackfield replacing two old, cApcri- enCed men. The newcomers were Mizcll and Thomson. And the play of the two has made them the stars of the eleven. G
 With Parham and Randolph. two exceptionally capable backs, wing with the two sophomorcs for speed and passing ability the Tech attack Is IulB'IbllN, l'ildlIl anu I i'I li' probably will alternate at quarter back Both are resuurceful and : consistent ground gathers. Tech has developed fine aerial game but has not placed too great stress on that form of attack. Par | ham and Mizell are good lin" plung- CTS and as an end runner Thomson ] has few equals in the south. The 1 kicking Saturday will be done hy parham and Horne, with ThomasOn 1 making the after-touchdoWn at tcmpts, if any.
 The Tech eleven is familiar with Rocknc football. Don Miller one of the famous Horsrmcn of another year, is assistant coach of the Tech squad.

MODERN FOOTBALL BITTER
 THAN OLD, EDWARDS THINKS
Former Princeton Star Sets Himself Up In Favor of Today's Style, Although Beacham, Cornell In 1884,
 Still Yearns for the Good Old Days In the Gridiron

New York. Oct. 2NS P,-Other old timers. such as Joe" Beacham. Cor nell '97, may point with pride to the genuine football they played in the good old days" and view with dis dain "thc game that's played to- day" but Big Bill' Edwards ot Princeton want, himself set down on the sid" of the modern game.
 Although hIuSell all outstanding and typical representative" Of the old-Stylc rushing game 10 which he applied his 2Gj pounds net of solid muscle in his playin. days, Big Hill" believes the modern game which lays the emphasis on speed "is better in every Way-fa&t"r. more spectacular and a better game 10 watch"
 "rlay,rs may not have to stand lh" endurance trs, Hs we did in those days when the same 22 men played steadily for 90 or %5 min utrs or mor", iut you don't find them going stal" nowadays from too much work as they did thcn.' said Edwards, "Nou don't find so many serious injuries either.
 Its inc new game that's rcally saved football by reducing he mum. ter and seriousness of the casualties.
 "rhc practice of running in many >,.bstitIios these days speeds mp tn. games and gives men ot different cAlihrc chance to show " hat they can do II isn't any sign in" play rrs have less staying power lhan they used 10 have"
 Instead of being q concession to tue ''Wcak"ucd man pow-r' of the present. as Colonel Beacham assert od recently at Ithaca. the forward pass in th" opinion of Edwards. lis an attractive feature Of the modern style of play which has brought the ball out into the open where the spectators can see 1t.
 Tn tic old days the crowd rarely saw the hull,' hc went on. Now the plays are more deceptive, more open and easier to tollow.'
 In marked contrast Colonel BeaChan declared: "playcrs of the old days look upon the forward pass with great disapproval, but perhaps the changes arc necessary to accom- modate OUT wea hened man power nowadays, the team will be playing excellent football and some guy will throw forward pass and the contest will degenerate into a game of come chase me, Charlie.'
 Tn its fundamentals the game hasn't changed much after all" be- lieves Big Bill" The old smash ing line play is just as important as ever. As tn. line goes so goes the team" declared the one time Tiger captain who graduated from foot ball to politics.
 Playing at about the same time Both Beachan of Cornell and Ed wards of Princeton lost the last game they played against the rival institution. When the former Cor nell end was captain in 1896 Prince ton swamped hs team by 57 to 0. When Big Bill" Edwards was cap tain and right guard for Princeton in 1899 his team lost . s to 0 game to Cornell although trimming Yale by ii to 10.

SCOTT, F|SHW|Ck,
 HEROES OR COATS?
Yale Ends to Have Turn in Limelight Against Dartmouth

Again tomorrow afternoon. in what has assumed the proportions of the days most important game in the East. Yale will place a great share of it's hopes for victory m the hands of it's stellar halfback, Bruce Caldwell but it is mainly upon the york Of the two ends, fishwiCk and Scott, that the turn of the tide i'm bends. These two men. subordinat- od in the meritod ballyhoo about Caldwell and the sturdy Yale line, will have their turn in the lime iipnt tomorrow. for a great deal de bends upon their ability to stop the wide end sweeps Of Dartmouth'.' < stars, Lane and Marster,'. They hay" their opportunity to he the heroes of the day. and if they fail they will be the "go2ts." They are pair Of fine wingmcn. and while the Army speedsters dipped around them for long gains on one or two occasions in cadet backs were tackled far be- hind the line for dama ging losses.
 Johnny Hobcn and Eddie Decker, along with the hallyhooed Caldwell. will also be called upon to do their shar" in the defense of the Nal" goal. and they may h" in for Il bad afternoon if FishWick and Scott stop the end runs. For Darimouth's re sorting 10 running plays last week was variation Of it's usual play which places ifs main relianc" in its aerial attack. Yale has faced no team wth q really powerful air offcnse and If remains 10 he seen what its defense against this method of play may bo. While tho Army made scv- cral gain through the air, Nale'S other opponents thus far have failed 10 do anyt hing with their passes, but their aerial game was weak and nothing can be told from Ii.
 In line playe Yale is given an i'm monse advantage. for the forwards Of the Hanover eleven are much less experienced than those of Eli. This augers well for Iale's offcnsc-- which is another way of saying for Caldwell. If his sturdy lincmon rip open the Green line as they did that of West Point. Dartmouth will need all it's tricks 10 offet the Yale half backs plunees. On past play. il looks as if tomorroW's game would be a contest between Iale's line attacks and the more open work and passing of the visitors. But it never pays to dope out q teams play. Yale may take Dartmouth by surprise by switching to it's own air game, and reports from Hanover already hint that Dartmouth may swing its at tack inuards in hopes of taking Yale off it's guard.
 Whatever the styles Of play used by the teams. it should be a game well worth watching. Both sides have their spectacular stars-Yale, Cald- well, Scott, and IIammersley, and Dartmouth the remarkable trio of Lane, MarSters, and MacPhail. And if Black is able to play his kicking thus will put a fourth colorful man in the Dartmouth backfield.
 Interest in the game is at fever pitch. Yale'e surprise defeat of Army ranked it with the best east ern clevens and drew all eyes to- ward if, while Dartmouth, although | expected to defeat Harvard, ran up such 8 huge score in doing so that memories of the great 1925 eleven shivers down the backs of the Greens future opponents.

ADJUSTMENTS
SHUBERT BELASCO--"The Legend
of LfOnOra."

There is a plain work-a-day world,
of course. Everybody must admit that.
Yet, Sir James Barrie has apparently
found for himself some vantage point
in realms of fancy from which to view
the doings of other mortals by the
light of moonbeams filtered through
dewy cobwebs.
Ordinary people and ordinary Incl
dents of life, incidents common to
every street or household and people
who may be met by turning corner,
become idealiZedA into beings apart
from ordinary experience in practical
fact and yet exquisitely true to type
as they think aloud from each especial
viewpoint.
"Only for those who ever had a
mother" whispers the small type on
the program.
The play proceeds with "a weird
wavering between reality and fan
tasy. 1t is Characteristic of the
author. In actual narrative the story
depicts atrocity worthy of pictorial
sensationalism in daily chronicle. In
subtle suggestion it exalts the mother
love which hesitates at nothing for
the safety of a child.
The large type IN the billing goes
to Grace George. Her performance
deserves all the magnifcence that
printers ink can convey. Bruce
McRae shares the same size of type
with the author. good leading man,
like a good author, being supposed
to carry the art of courteous self
effacement beyond the theatfic picture
into his professional affairs.
Miss George is charming revela-
ton as Leonora, the many-sided one.
who gem like radiates true woman
hood from diverse angles. She has
played many roles with distinction.
Some of them drifted far along into
experimental regions. She has never
acted better than in this play, which
stands pre-eminently for good writing
and clean idealism.
The superficial story is fragile.
1t needs hand of delicate dexterity
to keep the card house of imaging
from topping before it is complete.
Yet, the central theme is strong.
The suggestion of mother-love is inn
mutable and sustaining.
The story is as many-sided as
Leonora herself. In one scene it is
tragic disillusion, in another it Is
satire on the sway of feminine charm,
in another it is a rollicking travesty
of English court procedure and in the
final act it becomes romantic cul.
mination of events which bring every
body back to earth in confidence that
they "all lived happy ever after.
Leonora steps into humanity. The
story retires from a dreamland ex-
travagance of episodes into love
scene which leaves everybody more
human than ever because .of the re-
minder of the fierceness of womans
devotion to her own.
A large audience gladly stepped
back through the corridors of time,
and bys its hearty enthusiasm, in
which flowers mingled with applause,
proved that it did not grudge the
journey.
"Leonora" is one Of the most de-
lightfulIy modern of the old plays.
