Yale is a prime favorite for its
game with Harvard at New Haven
today and should come through
with a sizeable victory. There Is
a punch to the Eli attack and a
fine use of forward passes and
quick kicks on tap to turn the tide
a deep Yale blue by Sundown.
Garvey is a back who has taken
to the shoes vacated by Bruce Cald-
we'll and is fully on a par with
many notables who have preceded
him in the bowl. I look for Yale
to do a great deal of damage to
the Crimson line. Yale likes a
running attack.
An odd formation may be un-
earthed by Coach Stevens for the
battle, one that he found success
full ground gamer when playing for
Eli. The line unbalances to one
side, Sthe back1eld to the other. 1t
permits of hard line hammering.
A favorite play from this odd set
of the team is q buck to the short
side, No. / taking the pass direct
and driving inside the defensive
tackle. The wing backs take care
of the defensive tackle and half
back and the No. end cuts through
to get back.
Looks like a simple play, but the
straight ahead drive of No. and
No. 2 confuses the defensive full
back. He may fall for the feint of
No. 2. II he does the play Is big

MADISON CONTEST
BIG TEN TITLE KEY
Three Other Teams Are in
Running if Minnesota
Beats Wisconsin.

By the Associated Press.
- HICAGO. November 24.-Minne-
sofas laundering horde"
I carried the championship hopes
and fears of four teams as the
Big Ten foot ball campaign
ended on four widely separated fronts
today.
Three of the teams. Illinois. Ohio
State and Iowa. built their champion
ship hopes on the ability OF Minnesota
to stop Wisconsin, at Madison, and
their own abilities to win today. while
the Badgers hoped TO halt Minnesota
and thereby annex their first Big Ten
foot ball crown since 1912.
With Ohio State invading Illinois.
Minnesota clashing with Wisconsin and
Iowa fighting against Michigan, at Ann
Arbor, a days crowd of 225,000 or
more, the biggest in the Big Tens his
tory, was expected to see the curtain
fall Two other contests, Dartmouth
at Northwestern, and Indiana at Pur-
due, helped to swell the attendance
mark
Every contest. except that between
Iowa and Michigan. in which the
Hawkeyes we're big faVorites, was re-
gardcd as a tosS-up.
The Ohio State Illinois game marked
the last game as Buckeye coach for
Jack Wilce, whose resignation is ef-
fective this Winter. Each team has
been defeated, but with a chance for
the title both elevens expected to give
everything they had to win. Fifty
thousand were on hand to watch the
battle.
A battle of passes was promised at
Evanston, where Dartmouth sent its re-
juvenated team to meet Northwestern
in the only intersectional combat of
the Western Conference card. Both
teams have exhibited flashes of power
despite poor seasons.
The "Old Oaken Bucket" was the toe
sin of battle between Indiana and Pur-
due, and Lafayette was foot ball mad.
The two have been rivals almost since
foot ball began.
Will Settle Battle Of Ifs"
MADISON, Wis, November 24.-The
Big Tens battle of ifs for the con-
ference championship centered around
today'S game between the rugged Min
nesota eleven and Wisconsin's unde-
feated Badgers. Wisconsin, in a des-
perate effort to gain its first Big Ten
title since 1912, was keyed to the limit
to beat the laundering horde" of
MinneSotans.
Minnesota, with no championship
hopes of its own, was the lone star of
encouragement to Iowa, Illinois and
Ohio, because only in case of a Mime
sofa victory could any of them hope
to win or share the championship
Spoils.
Dopesters. remembering the season
filled with upsets, looked for Wiscon-
sins defeat, but Wisconsin partisans
would concede nothing, although ad-
mitting that any Minnesota Wisconsin
game was bound to be natural"
Wisconsin's running offensive and
passes were stacked against Minnesota's
hne-charging tactics in game fore
casts. but both teams were ready for
surprise attacks.

congratulations for their fine
showing here yesterday against the
crack Tuscaloosa High School eleven
which the Capital City team held to a

was the hardest fight which the Tusca-
loosa eleven has been given in the past
four seasons, during which it has not
been beaten.
Outweighed, but by no means out
fought, Tech contrived to score one
touchdown. This came when Holmes
Fountain, little halfback, got away for
an 80-yard run. The dash, coming in
the second period, tied the score at 6-all.
However in the second half the home
eleven, led by Holley, got its attack
functioning in high gear and counted
its last two touchdownS.
Cochrane, right halfback, scored
Tuscaloosa's tally in the third period,
following drive which started when
GoSs tumble was recovered by the home
team in midfield. The final Alabama
touchdown came in the fourth period.
when Holley and Cochrane took the bali
over on plunges. The ball was on
Techs 4yard line when the session

A team of IL good tacklers is hard to
beat.
The foot ball player must have
greater mental efficiency than debater
Moral and physical courage are
closely associated. If your nerves fall
you, so does your body.
The difference between champions
and near r-champions is The ability to
play for something outside Of self.
Foot ball is a game in which inches
often count more than yards.
A good loser is a piece OF camouflage,
The man who hasn't an alibi is hope
less. But don't squawk outwardly.
Congratulate your victor, as civilization
DEGREES.
IL YOU run harder than the other
team, you will probably win.
A liar is a gutter. An honest-minded
man is not so sensitive and Is easier
to get along with on the field.
The difference between star and a
dub is lust few inches-the ability TO
stretch at critical periods Of game.
He makes good who Is game enough
to come back.
The best forward pass Is the one
thrown by the best thrower to the nigh
est Jumper who has the rhythm TO Tune
his jump and the ability to hang on to
the ball.
Many weak-chinned man has a

Neutrality is being afraid OF one side
and ashamed of the other.
