BIG PROGRAM
LISTED FOR
ALLFRONTS

NEW YORK, Nov. 11.-There
will be no armistice as far as
the football battles are concerned
today. From coast to coast every
section will see stirring games and
several of them will go far toward
deciding outstanding teams Of the
nation.
In the East, Columbia Navy,
Fordham-N. Y. o., Army Harvard,
Observation-Disclosures, Ohio State
Penn and Georgia Yale hold the
spotlight with the first named in
each instance favored to win.
Further West, DuqueSne and
Pittsburgh will stage what may
be the finest game of the day
with the choice toss-up.
Duquesne Unbeaten
Duquesne is unbeatable in eight
starts and if it can hurdle the
Panthers today, must be given
equal ranking with any team in
the country.
Notre Dame will try to stage a
comeback against Purdue, and
while the latter is the general ia
vorite it will be considered no
upset if the Irish finally click.
Michigan and Iowa will furnish
the outstanding test among the
big teams, and the former must
be rated on top. Iowa will put
up a stiff fight but it is doubtful
if it has quite enough stuff to
beat the team many think is the
best in the country. However,
Illinois, a decided underdog, came
close to doing that very thing
only last week.
Nebraska Set
Moving further Westward into
the Big Six, Nebraska should keep
it's unbeatten record intact against
the same Kansas team that beat
Notre Dame.
And out on the Coast, Stanford
and Southern California will wage
one of the classic tits of the day.
Oregon and Oregon State, both
unbeaten, will put on another
great show, and California and
washington should make a close
fight Of it. U. S. c., Oregon and
Washington are the faVoriteS.

TIGERS CHOICE
OVER GREENS

PRINCETON, N. j., Nov. IL.
Unbeaten, united and unsecured
on, Princeton is expected to keep
its slate clean at Dartmouth'S ex-
pense today.
This will be the first meeting Of
the teams since 1915 and the
Tiger is a decided favorite to win.
Dartmouth will carry an ad-
vantage Of 16 pounds a man but
this difference in weight should
be more than offset by Princeton'S
great backfield corps.
Princeton has at least nine
Grade A backs, headed by the
elusive Garry LIE Van, and these
should swing the tide in the
Tigers favor.
Although outweighed, the Prince
ton line will not be outplayed by
Dartmouth. These Tigers are as
tough, fast and smart as any line
in the East and Dartmouth will
not romp around the ends as
easily as it did against Yale last
week.
Princeton is at full strength ex-
cept for Human, veteran center
and Paine, sophomore tackle, but
with a great world of reserves to
call upon, Coach Fritz Crisler has
no cause for worry.
A crowd Of 10000 is expected.
The probable lineup:
Princeton-Fairman, left end; ceppi,
left tackle; Kopf, left guard; Kalbaugh.

tackle; Delaney. right end. Kadlic,

Winooka Winner

An added feature was a match
event between the two victorS,
one being named "Equipoise"
and the other "Winooka." Well,
do you know that durn Aus
tralian turtle beat the American
bred crawler, the latter walking
about half way from the center
of the circle to the finish line,
and then pulling up lame to a
dead stop.
And among the Spectators
was a sort of Lucky Baldwin in
the person of Mickey Brooks,
former bantam weight fighter
and custodian of the Maryland
and Miami press boxes. Mickey
bet both winners among the
1O-turtle races and "Winooka"
in the match race.
The first winner paid Mickey
the handsome odds of 6 to and
the second race the amazing re-
ward Of $5.75 for so cents, the
pari-mutuel units in both races
being on the basis of half dollar.
"Winooka" paid even money, as
would "Equipoise," had he not
broken midway of the race.
You may expect to see and
hear more of this turtle racing
racket this winter and next sum-
mer when the hump-backed boys
crawl out of their winter hiber-
nation.

To VIE
At KENWOOD
COURSE
By GEORGE A. SIMPSON


That isn't cannon thunder
booming out Bethesda way today.
It's merely the roar of golf
shots flying over the Kenwood
Country Club course in the open
ing round of the third annual
National Capital open tournar
ment.
A glittering field of performers,
approximating one hundred and
eighty in number, started out
upon the first lap in quest of the
$4,000 that will be devided IL
ways.
5000 to Winner
Top prize is 5000 with second
place winner taking $500, third
5000, fourth 5000, and so on down
the line. The smallest money
award is $25 for twelfth place.
In case an amateur places
among the first IL finiShers. he
will receive the equivalent of his
cash prize in a silver plate.
Eighteen holes are on tap to-
day with SO more scheduled to-
morrow. Only the low so and all
ties will take part in tomorrow's
concluding competition.
Soldiers on Hand
The big shots, drawing favored
spots in the starting times, are
not due to tee off until early this
afternoon. That is for the benefit
of the spectators as well as the
star players. Many of the pros
pective onlookers are unable to
reach the course before noon and
most of the headliners dislike
to begin play before sleep Is out
of their eyes.
Soldiers from Fort Meade will
patrol the course and keep the
spectators from staging a stam-
pede, which would inconvenience
other fans as well as the players.
Strive to Repeat
The two former winners Of the
tournament, Willie Macfarlane
and Horton Smith, will strive to
repeat their victories. Macfar-
lane copied the first year with
winning total of ZIG for the Sd
holes, while Smith finished in
front last year with 214.
Last minute entries Swelled the
list near the 18O-mark, the prin"
cipal ones being Tom Creavy,
1881 P. G. A. champion; Frank
