GEORGIA MAY WIN
FROM YALE AGAIN
Ellis Will Be Far Short of
Their Full Strength
on Saturday.

n VIEW YORK, October 11.-The
N chances for second successive
II triumph of the Georgia Bull
4 dog over the Yale Bulldog seem
to be increasing daily. A year
ago Georgia deprived Yale of a posi-
BILE claim on Eastern championship hon.
ors with a 14-to-10 defeat. Next Sat-
urday their meeting may bring about
the same situation.
The Ellis probably will go into the
Georgia game suffering from an acute
shortage of first-string players. Their
team will be made up of reserves or, If
the regulars get in, of men who have
not had enough hard work to prepare
them for big game. Since their open
ing victory over Maine, the Yale play
ers have not had one good drill, and
many of the regulars have not been IN
uniform at all.
Only One Regular Present.
Coach Nal Stevens planned a long
scrinmage for yesterday, but only one
of his regulars appeared. Twelve of
the f1rSt-string players were In the hos
pital, suffering from colds or minor in
juries. How many of these men will be
able to play against Georgia is doubtful
and their performance is equally uncer-
tain.
Stevens is not able to make plans for
his practice sessions for the rest of the
week, and does not dare risk Scrirn-
mage for fear of injuring his few re-
naming able-bodied men. Should the
Ellis get safely by the Georgia menace,
however, they should be we'll on the way
juries is serious
While the attention of the Eastern
fans is attracted by the midseaSon at
mosphere of such big games as the Yale
Georgia and Pitt-West Virginia encoun-
ters, most of the leading elevenS will be
going along the smooth road of early
season games, with little to fear from
Saturdays opponents. Princeton, with
team that shows signs of great power,
meets Virginia. which took severe
drubbing from South Carolina last week.
While the Tigers are not likely to dupli-
cate their 50-to-0 victory over Vermont,
they should win easily from the South
ernerS. Harvard may have a closer
struggle with North Carolina, for the
Tar Heels flashed some fine play in
the last few minutes to beat Maryland
last Saturday, while the Crimson has
not yet reached its best form.
Army Gets a Let-up.
The Army gets a rest after its ter
rife struggle with Southern Methodist,
in a game with Providence College.
Dartmouth encounters Allegheny, a
small college that sometimes causes
lot of trouble, but Jess Hawley is
not taking the game lightly, as he took
care in yesterdays practice to see that
his men were well drilled in the funda-
mentals that make or break a team.
Cornell, still uncertain as to its line
up, has a weak opponent in Hampden-
Sidney.
Lafayette and Georgetown, two of
the high-Scoring teams of the early
season, have opponents that should help
fatten their totals. George Washington,
beaten last week by Fordhan1, comes to
Easton. while the Hilltoppers entertain
seem more likely to produce big scores
than upsets are the Pennsylvania
Swarthmore, Columbia Wesleyan, Col
gate Virginia Poly, Carnegie Tech-Th1el
and w. and J.-DuQuesne encounters.
Beef instead of iron is the aim OF
Brown for next Saturdays game. The
former iron men meet a heavy Dayton
University team and Tuss McLaughry
has shifted his lineup to put a heavier
team on the field. Wentworth, TO-
FOUNDER. is the only lineman who

Freshmen Show Power.
The lowly freshman is getting his
revenge at Harvard and Syracuse. The
Syracuse varsity has taken it on the
chin twice from the f1rst-year men,
equipped with Nebraska plays, while it
required a 65-yard run in the last few
minutes of long scrimmage for the
first-string representative of John Har-
ward to beat out the yearlings, 25 to 19.
It is usually the player who is in
jured in foot ball practice, but Reggie
Brown of Boston University showed
yesterday that the coaches life is not
an easy one Demonstrating line play
to his men, Brown suffered severe
ankle injury and had to be taken to
hospital.
The Army-Notre Dame game Is a
sell-out a month ahead of time. The
game will not take place until Novem-
ber 10. but all the 10000 tickets had
been sold,
