New York. Nov. q tPl-With the climax Of the 1929 football season only is hours away for half dozen Of the most important east crn clevens, hard work has all but bocn finished for the week. Some few Of the teams scheduled to meet old or strong rivals on Saturday will have scrimmago this afternoon, hut many others will content them selves with no more than dummy work.

 Booth limped less yesterday. but Coach Nal Stevens insisted that it still was "uncertain'' whether Booth would face the Crimson.

 The Navy also is casting it's eyes into next week when Dartmouth will be met but West Virginia Wesleyan is gunning for the Mid shipmen this week. It is hardly likely that the Wesleyans will give the Navy anything more than a good stiff workout, however. Much the same situation prevails at West Point, where the Army will meet | Ohio Wesleyan, team which last year defeated Michigan and Syra- cuse but which has failed to reach such heights this season.
