It involves a sliding scale. The num-
ber of relatively hard games" factor
does not enter into the ratings until
near the end Of the season.
Strength OF schedule, both as to
opponents and number Of games, en-
ters largely into the calculations. Up
to two "breathers" and one very un-
reasonable upset, If any, are disre-
garded in calculating ratings Of major
teams.
BY the Williamson system a team
is classified and rated according to
hard and fast rules. Statistical
analysis and the theory of least
squares are involved. And all this
must be done with the reports from
more than 500 teams within few
hours that the foot ball fan may have
his weekly digest Of figures.
In the sports section of The Star
each Tuesday during the foot ball
season there will appear the ratings
of teams, large and small, all over
the country, representing their eff
cheney of consistent performance.
Then, each Friday the results Of
games scheduled for that week are
predicted.
For several years the Williamson
System has proved accurate in from
IS to 80 per cent Of its predictions.
Look for these ratings in The Star.

The preparation Of the data brings

From this material the Williamson
system groups the teams in eight

basic curve Is calculated on a 0 to 100
scale and as the season progresses
other curves are computed concerning
the consistency factor, the scoring
factor, the strength Of opponent fac
tor and the number of relatively hard
games" factor for each team.
The consistency factor has to do
with how q team won, lost or tied
games in its own class or in higher
or lower classes. The game-credit
varies according to the class of op-
ponent. Credit for the scoring factor
is obtained by multiplying the diff
ference in scores by the game credit,

Gobblers flashed the form that made
them 1885 State champions for two
periods this afternoon In their OPEN
ing game with Roanoke and then
lapsed into second-half inefIectiveness,
although they STAYED of all but one
Maroon thrust to earn a 16-to-7 deci-
sion.
1t was all v. P. !. in the first half
and mostly Roanoke in the second, the
Salem team springing a surprise by
showing reversal of form on the Of
fensive. The Techmen contributed to
their opponents drive by drawing
some stiff penalties.
Employing straight foot ball tactics
without attempting anything fancy,
the Gobblers twice marched to touch
downs in the first half. Another time,
when penalty had set them back and
rushing failed to gain, George Sodaro,
stubby halfback, booted a placement
from the 34-yard line.
Standing out head and shoulders
throughout the game was the veteran
junior, Mel Henry, who rolled UP lO2
yards of the 1872 v. P. I. gained by
rushing.

RALEIGH. N. C., September 10
~ A plodding N. c. State College
foot ball team, paced by flashy Eddie
Berlinski, defeated Elon in business
like fashion, 1910, at Riddick Stadium
this afternoon.
A coatless crowd of 5000 saw the
contest.
Berlinski scored both touchdowns,
the first in the second quarter on a
wide end run from Elon's 7-yard line,
and the second in the next period on
Q 51-yard run through center.
State played straight foot ball, try
Ing only seven forward passes, no
laterals and few tricks.
Elon used defensive tactics, relying
on the line drives and punts Of James
Abbitt, hard-hitting fullback, to get
them out of trouble. Abbitt's seven
punts averaged IS yards each.

some degree the lads mechanical de-

even such as errors Of commission are
bound to fade before a genuine deter

Probable Starting Team.
HARD scrimmages Of the last two
days have cleared partially the
uncertainty Of the starting lineup.
Unoficially it appears that the fol-
lowing will answer the opening whistle
against Emory and Henry:
Ray Hanken, left end; Johnny Reb-
holz. left tackle; Izzy Weinberg, left
guard: Capt. Frank Kavalier, center:
Ted Cottingham, right guard; Dale
Prather or Harold Soldering, right
tackle; Pete Yurwitz or Lloyd Berry.
right end; George Jenkins, quarter
back; Herb Reeves or Vic Sampson,
left half; Bruce Mahan, right half,
and Jay Turner or Elmer Hogg, full
back.
Judging from the frequent chang
ing about of players in recent drills.
Pixlee hasn't determined his starting
lineup. Leon Morris, 1885 letter
winner, and Allan Holt are a couple
Of ends who may crash the starting
array. while AL Harringer and Guy
Renzaglia appear closely pressing
Weinberg and Cottingham at the
guards.
Armando Salturelli, recently con-
verted from center when Capt. Ka-
kalier took over that post, and STAN
ley Grbovaz, are strong tackle posi-
bilities. In the backfeld Mig Tihila,
Frank Merka, Joey kaufman and Jay
Kenslow have frequently been in ac-
tion, at least enough to warrant their
consideration as starters against
Emory and Henry.
In all likelihood the regular George
Washington lineup won't be known
until after the first major game, sched-
uled October with Mississippi. The
even distribution Of quality among the
1886 material affords the opportunity
for a maximum of experimenting.
What Pixlee and his aides, Bill Rain
hart and Botchey Koch are seeking
most is the hardest blocking surest
tackling aggregation that can be gotten
together.
Backfield to Be Good.
1T is evident at this early stage that
George Washington is going to have
good backfleld, better perhaps than
that Of 1885 when the incompatible
Tuffy Leemans dominated the scene.
For one thing, it will be smoother

City, playing its first game Of the

Mckinley kicked of to start
