coach of the Elves. This team is spon-
sored by the boys work committee OF
Madison Hall. the Y. M. C. A. Of the

which they run OF SIS different plays
They are equally skilled in the style of
play used by Knute Rockne and Glenn
Warner, and their double and triple
pass tricks have enabled them to score
$50 points this season to 81 made by
teams played within the 100-pound
class.

MACK TRIMS CHAMP,
BUT GETS NO TITLE

BY the Associated Press.
LOS ANGELES, November 27.-Petro
Quintana-they call him Eddie Mack
for short-today stands out as q fighter
who twice has defeated a champion,
with no crown 70 show for his efforts.
In 10-round non-title battle, before
10000 fans here last night, Mack, for
mer st. Louis Regis College youth, re-
pcated a previous non-title victory over
Tod Morgan, junior lightweight king, in
rouSing rally which saw him win in
the closing period.
1t was the third meeting of the pair
at catch weights. with the scrapper
from Denver holding two trfumphs by
the decision route. The second engage
ment terminated in q draw.
Morgan looked very much like q
champion in the opening stanzas, but
Mack rallied to win the fifth by wide
margin, bringing blood to Morgan'S nose
and mouth with a series of brlising
lefts and rights to the face and chin.
: This round marked the turning point
in the battle. which saw the decision
hang in the balance as the tenth round
rolled around. Mack slowed in the
eighth and ninth, but hammered the
title-holder into complete submission in
the tenth.

"a YEw YORK, November 27.-With

ARMY IS DEBATING
ON TWO POSITIONS
Decides for Notre Dame Fray
Except for Quarterback
and Center.

Wv VEST POINT, N. Y, November
VA 27.-Except for two posi-
NM lions, Head Coach BifH Jones
Of the Army knows what
lineup he will start against
Notre Dame at the Yankee Stadium,
New York, on Saturday, and the
chances are that he knows the answers
to those two problems as well. If he
does, though, he isn't telling any Gne.
Center and quarterback are the two
positions open to question. Miller and
LaZar are waging an even battle for
the Snapback Job and Carver, Bowman
and Gibner all are in the field for
quarterback The rest of the starting
lineup probably will include eagle,
Murrel and Glattly in the backfield and
Perry, Price. Hillsinger, Humber, Mes
singer and Carlmark on the line.
Reports that Jones will start his Sec
ond team. as he did against Dickinson,
Ohio Wesleyan and several other foes,
appear to be founded on anything but
fact. Jones is expected to start his
strongest combination.
The squad will not go to New York
until Friday, taking n light workout ut
Travers Island. The boys will wait
until Saturday to travel to Yankee
Stadium. I'VE know the stadium very

The Yale line play was high-class.
me that at times the play and blocking
OF the Yale linemen were as fine as any
they had ever seen. They thought that
Yale's choice of plays frequently was
doubtful. The Yale coaches thought
the choice of plays was undoubtedly
bad. The Blue left places where 1t has
gained ground to hit closer in or farther
out. The Harvard tackles, seeing much
Of the play directed inside them. came
charging in all afternoon. Yale let
them do 1t.
Harvard made only one glaring mis-
take. At the end of the first half
with only about a minute left to play
Crimson backs batted down two for
ward passes practically on their own
goal line. On the firSt Of these IL look
ed from the stand as If the Harvard
man caught the ball and then threw it
away from him in an effort to ground
the pass on which Ellis ran for touch
down never could have been attempted
Ticknor played fine ball, although he
did not stand out as boldly as he has in
most of his other games. Horween told
me that he thought Tfcknor was the
best center he had ever seen. He Is one
of the best have ever seen. Douglas
played q whale Of game for Harvard
and was easily the best end on the
field. Wood, Mays and Devens per-
formed brilliantly. Wood seems to be q
fine field general, and Mays not only is
an outstanding ball carrier, but appears
to inspire his teammates.
For Yale Hare, Vincent, Greene, Ellis
and McLennan seemed to me to do par
ticularly fine work. The eleven with
McLennan playing appeared to be going
well, and I could not quite see the
strategy of substituting Booth, who had
lost the winged feet of Hermes and ac-
quired the vulnerable heel Of Achilles.
Booth StMl Great.
Booth was in there playing on a
wooden leg. His marvellous timing-hiS
greatest aSSet-waS gone. It Is true thai
on one or two occasions 1t looked as if
he was going to dodge clear, and with
two good legs he probably would have
lodged clear. As it was, only a clutch
ing hand on the neck of his shirt
stopped him. But he couldn't get up to
his openings. He was the step SLOW
which made all the difference.
And Harvard was the one team which
didn't stand in any real awe Of Booth.
Wood and his classmates had stopped
Booth as a freshman.
But Albie Booth is a great little back
and should shine brightly in his two re-
naming years Of college foot bail. He
may, on various occasions, play better
or worse, but he has that indefinable
thing known as class, which needs no
alibi.
