SERVICE ELEVENS
PR|MED FOR GAME
Battle Royal Promised in
Saturdays Contest for
Presidents Cup.

TIME surest thing about the Presi-
dents Cup game in Griffith Sta
dium Saturday afternoon be-
tween the Quantico Marines and
the Coast Guard is that it will be a
royal battle between two equally deter
mined and dogged elevens. Both are
coming to the game loaded for bear
and will count their seasons either sue
cessful or not, despite their past i'm
pressive records, upon the outcome of
their contest here.
On paper, at least, the Coast Guard
Bears rate as the favorite in Saturdays
game despite their last two defeats by
the Leathernecks. The old adage, that
1t is best to string along with the cham
pion, therefore doesn't hold good. This
season the Bears have beaten every
thing they have faced, allowing their
opponents only two touchdowns in the
string Of eight victories.
Thus 1t Is that the Bears not only
occupy a niche with the very few un-
beaten and united teams in the coun-
try, but also possess one Of the best de-
fensive records of the year, too.
Another important factor in rating
the Bears favorite to upset the Leath-
ernecks Is the fact that they have q
team Of tried veterans, many Of whom
played here with them before in their
two previous attempts to lift the cup.
On the other hand, the Leathernecks
have had their team of past seasons
disrupted, due to the decision to dis
band the all-Marine team last year.
A number of the best players thus were
commissioned to different stations in
other parts Of the country or abroad.
However, nucleus of the old team re-
manned at Quantico and around these
men, with several promising young
sters, formidable aggregation has
been built. OF IL games this season
the Marines have won all but two, los
ing to the Philadelphia American Leg
ion picked team and the high-scoring
Davis-E -Elkins eleven.
The last game played by the Marines
was in Cleveland Thanksgiving day.
when they trimmed John Carroll, Is
to 0. They have more than a week to
get ready for the Bears, who have not
played since November 81, when they
had their closest call of the season
from st. Thomas, whom they defeated,

BROTHERS AT YALE
PROMOTE LATERAL

BY EDWARD J. NEIL,

n YEW YORK, November 3d.
nj Some Of the finest foot ball
IN coaches in the land were sitting
about a banquet table, chat
ting Informally about their favorite
sport, and the subject at the moment
was the lateral pass, its possibilities
for the future.
"It has been q part Of the game from
the very start Of foot ball." said Amos

That brought up the subject of Clem
and Mac Williamson, brothers, from
Glen Cove, N. Y, juniors at Yale, who
staged show Saturday In the third
quarter Of the Els 51-to-14 conquest
Of Princeton that was all but lost in the
all-around amazement Of such an over
whelming victory.
YALE started a second team against
Il the Tigers in the second half,
with Clem at one half and Mac at
fullback. All they did was toss that
foot ball back and forth in so startling
q series Of laterals that in a few min
uteS Mac had scored two touchdowns
Then Mac came out and Glen soon
followed him.
You'll hear from that pair next
year." said Stevens. They have sys-
tenn all their own and it's quite story.
What they really are Is pair OF Har-
ward backs.
Last year, when we were getting
ready for the Harvard game, Mac and
Glen were drafted from the scrubs to
toss laterals such as the Crimson uses
They're both very fast. One weighs
157 pounds, the other 158, and Mac is
a year the older. They got so good
they scored on the varsity, and when
the Yale second team played the Har-
ward second team they worked the
Crimson's own laterals so well they
won. 26 to o.
""N1OW they're sold on laterais. They
IN practice together all the time.
They pass back and forth be-
| yond the Scrlmmage line or In back of

end runs, instead Of one of them block
ing, he falls behind and takes lat
eral when the other is tackled.
Next year they'll probably get a
chance to beat Harvard again with its
own pet play"
Stevens, one of the many coaches
from all parts Of the country who gath
cred with newspapermen for the annual
banquet for the All-America Coaches
Board, thinks Bob Lassiter. sophomore
censation from Charlotte, N. c., who
scored three touchdowns against Prince
ten, is "a bit green yet bat very
promising"
Il worked him with the quarterbacks
last Spring and the quartz. backs at
Yale do lot of blocking. He blocked
hard and faithfully, but one day he
came to me and said:
This blocking is all right, Mr.
Stevens, and know It's part of the
game and all. but please will you just
let me tote that apple once. You know

that Mohawks win the pennant.
