NAVY TO USE MEN
WHO ROUTED PENN
To Depend Mainy on Those
Players in Michigan Game
Saturday.

ANNAPOLIS, Md, November T.
Navy's varsity team, the one which IS
expected to do most of the work
against Michigan in the Baltimore
Stadium Saturday, though not neces-
sarily the eleven which will start the
game, will be changed but slightly
from the combination which started
the Pennsylvania clash and played with
little change to the end.
1t has been a frequent strategic move
on the part of the Navy Academy to
start second string, and rush its
strongest team on the field at an op-
perfume moment. Ingram departed
from this method successfully in the
game against Pennsylvania, and may
persue the same course against Micbi-
gan.
Ingram is perfectly willing to start
the lineup of his strongest combina-
tion, and there is only one question In
his mind about that; namely, whether
Spring or Castree will occupy the posi-
ton of left halfback.
Both are brilliant runners, Spring
having greater experience and prob
ably greater knack as an end skirter
and is more likely to get clear for long
runs. On the other hand, Spring has
tendency to get hurt which mars his
playing somewhat, and Ingram may
choose Castree for this reason.
The rest of the backfield will be the
same as that which started against
Pennsylvania. Whelchel at quarter
Cannon at right half and Clifton al
fullback. Miller and Peterson are the
substitute quarterbacks, and there is nc
doubt that the team is not so strong in
this position as In the other backfleld
places. However, Welchel is a hard
working and generally steady player.
Byng, right end, is the only player
now considered a first choice for the
Navy line who did not start against
Pennsylvania, but he took Morton's
place later in that conflict, and Is
considered somewhat better player in
some particulars.
Capt. Burke and Koepke, but will prob
ably shift them over.
Moret, left end; Bowstrom, left
tackle; Hughes, center, and Wilson
right tackle, all of whom played these
positions through the. whole of the
Pennsylvania game, retain their hold
on their places.
Should Ingram delay the use of this
first-string team, the opening backfielo
would have Miller at quarter. Lloyd
and either Spring or Castree, at the
halves. and Antrim at full, with the
possibility of the use Of Joe Bauer ir
Lloyd's place.
The second-string line, a big aggre.
cation, and individually little below the
first selections, would be made up as
follows: Left end, Beans or Ricketts,;
left tackle, Gray; left guard, Chapple
or Westofen; center, Duborg; right
guard, Swan: right tackle, Giese.

gridiron game on popular interest.
| Notre Dame, with team that lacks
some of the color and effectiveness of
previous Rockne products, nevertheless
has not seen its drawing power dimln-
ished If anything it has increased,
possibly because of the novelty of seeing
the Hoosiers occasionally licked, but
probably because they always put up a
snappy gridiron show. They beat the
Navy before the greatest crowd of all

month ago.
West Point filed the Harvard and
Yale arenas and will meet Notre Dame
and Stanford before capacity crowds in
the country's biggest ball park. The
demand for tickets for both games IN
New York has been such that there is
no public sale whatever for either
contest. ........

into one of the best passing combina-

fact, Maj. Prichard now spends the

cialty at Yale.
Jones and ROckne now are among
the keenest coaching rivals in the game
although "Biff," in his third season In
full charge at West Point, is COM
parative newcomer to the ranks of head
coaches.
The score between them is even thus
far. The first Army team moulded by
Jones in 1926 met its only defeat OF
the hands of Notre Dame when Christy
Flanagan got loose for a beautiful end
run and the only touchdown of the
game. "Biff" squared the count last

to predict the outcome Of a Central

Presenting a revamped lineup, East

in downing Business than many of its
other series games. Capt. Billy Wood.
at left halfback, was the spearhead OF
the Lincoln Parkers' attack. Everett
Oxley, playing quarterback in place OF
Wood, showed impressively in his debut,
especially in a defensive way. Frank

Eastern's offense. Business presented
the same team as was used against
Central, but the Stenogs played sur
urisingly smooth and alert game.
Eastern gained its winning points
over Business late in the third period
when Max Miller, Eastern center
blocked the punt of Charley Rich, Busi-
ness back, near the Stenog goal line
and the ball rolled outside in the end
zone to give the Lincoln Parkers an
automatic safety.
Prior to this each team had scored q
touchdown. Eastern was the aggressol

to repulse all but one assault by the
Light Blue and White. This foray ir

ORANGE, CORNELL,
COLUMBIA PR|MED
Seek Revenge on Ohio Wes.
Ieyan, st. Bonaventure and
Johns Hopkins.
BY HERBERT w. BARKER.
Associated Press Sports Writer.

n YEW YORK, November There
has been many sad tale of the
vi foot ball mighty upset by the
4 So-called weak, but there are
three Eastern college teams
which have a particular reason for hop
ing they will escape that ignominy this
Saturday. If they fail it will not be be-
cause they have not been forewarned.
Syracuse, Cornell and Columbia all
were subjected to some humiliation last
Fall when they got no better than a
draw against Ohio Wesleyan, st. Bona
venture and Johns Hopkins, respective
~. They have the same ..Small-college
rivals this Saturday and expect, with
some justification, to obtain the Gus
tomary revenge.
Syracuse, however, may find it much
easier to wish than to accomplish. Ohio
Wesleyan, member of the Ohio Con-
ference, has swept along at flood tide
all season, washing up everything, in
cluding Michigan, which came within its
path.
Cornell and Columbia, on the other
hand, should find the going much
easier this year than season ago. Cor
nell'S array is much more impressive
than in 1927 and ST. Bonaventure,
beaten yesterday by CanisiuS, does not
appear so strong. Columbia is favored
to defeat Johns Hopkins by decisive
margin.
These three games, of course, will not
get much public attention on day that
offers such wide variety of clashes
between evenly matched rivals.
Big Games on Schedule.
Army stacks its undefeated record
against Knute Rockne's Notre Dame
warriors at the Yankee Stadium with
an attendance of some 10000; Michi-
gan and Navy, now apparently in win
ming stride, clash at Baltimore; George
town and Carnegie Tech, two of the
East'S five undefeated and united elev-
ems, come TO grips at Albany, N. Y,
and Pennsylvania travels to Cambridge
with rather Slight hope of repeating
the 24-0 victory it scored at Harvard'S
expense last Fall
With their cripples back in the line
up, the Dartmouth Indians hope to
give a good Brown team a trouncing:
Pittsburgh and Washington and Jeffer-
son get together in an effort to finish
an argument that ended in scorelesS
tie last season; Fordhan1, beaten by
three touchdowns by West Virginia
yesterday, hardly figures to stop Boston
Colleges winning streak.
Washington and Lee and Maryland
come up from the South to see what
they can do in the way of stopping the
Princeton Tigers and Yale. The Gen.
erals were beaten by the Tigers, 1870,
last year, and the dope has it that the
margin will be much greater on Satur-
day. Maryland did not extend Yale
last year. nor is it expected the. Bull
dogs will have any more trouble this
time. West Virginia will be an over
whelming favorite to defeat the Okla
homa sAggies. -
Aside from the Bucknell- -Lehigh, VII
lanova-Temple, Wesleyan Williams, La
fayette- Rutgers, the rest of Saturdays
schedule for the most part pits the
opponents hardly in their opponents
class.

Iowa Showing Ragged Form

~ HICAGO, November It's a
changing world even when it
comes to foot ball injuries.
~ Northwestern. which from al
most the beginning of foot bail,
has suffered the most from injuries on
the gridiron and whose players used
to be referred to as weak sisters" now
is the iron team" of the Big Ten Con-
ference and probably of all America
foot ball.
Today, while every team in the West
ern Conference had at least one star on
the injured list, the wildcats were well.
happy and confident. Against three
"bonecrushing" teams this season, Ohio
State, Illinois and Minnesota, they have
had but one serious injury-that suf-
fered by Hank Bruder, sophomore half
back, whose knee was hurt in a pre-
Conference contest. Even that injury
failed to keep the Pakin, Illinois, line
smasher out of the lineup for more
than two games.
Psychology Half of It."
"And psychology is half of it," re-
marked King Brady, veteran trainer at
Northwestern. lone of the first things
we try to teach our players is that they
are not hurt. When one complains, we
use psychology, give him a good rub
down and tell him he is getting along
fine. Too, we have probably the most
extensive callisthenics drill in the Con-
ference and our players are in good
shape before they get into the game"
Because of this condition and the con-
fidence inspired in its triumph over
Minnesota, Northwestern is filled with
high hopes Of defeating another bone
of ExyoY
ton Saturday. Coach Dick Hanley plans
to send light. fast team against the
Boilermakers. The game should be a
great punting duel between Capt. Walter
Homer of Northwestern and pest"
Welch of the Boilermakers. Both boot
punts Of so yards or more on almost
every attempt.
Coach Burt Ingwersen Is very much
dissatisfied with his Iowa team, which
clashes with Ohio State in the most
important game of the conference Sat-
urday, and if the varsity doesn't i'm
prove he threatens to make plenty of
substitutions In last nights drill the
varsity defense and offense was ragged,
and Ingwersen told his players so in no
kind words.
Ohio's Chances Dimmed.
Ohio States chance for victory has
been dimmed by the injury of its mighty
center, Barrett, who is out of the Iowa
game. Larkins, tackle, will be moved
over to the pivot position. Offsetting
this, however, is the backfeld, which is
in the best condition of the season.
Chicago'S spinner plays are bother
ing Wisconsin. Chicago, meanwhile, is
worrying over Wisconsin'S passing game,
which seems to improve daily.
So serious and numerous are the in
juries at Minnesota that Coach Clar-
ence Spears is afraid to push his var
sity through a very hard Scrimmage in
preparation for Indiana
Michigan still is searching for scor-
ing punch and devoting considerable
| time to forward passes to obtain it for
| the Navy game.
Illinois. which meets Butler in a nom
conference game Saturday, is taking
training lightly, with the second
stringers doing most of it.
