affairs.
1t was understood a new banate

known whether other new banates
would be set up to complete DR..
Macheks longtime plan for federal

High Hope Of Revenge
In Harvard Grid Tilt
Held by Princeton
Tigers Have Good Air
Come to Use Against
Unsteady Crimson
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, Nov. 1.-THE Prince
ton Tiger is about to get some re-
venge Saturday for the kicking
around it has received the last two
years at the hands of fair Harvard.
Not since 1885 has the Tiger pre-
vailed over its traditional rival in q
game that is almost as important
socially as in an athletic way.
In 1885 the Tiger won $50, then
the two tied at 14-all in that stirring
battle of 1886. In 81 Harvard came
through with 34-6 victory and re-
peated the next year with q 26-7
shellacking.
However, Harvard is not likely to
find the going so easy this year. An
unsung gang of sophomores is carry
ing the Crimson along and without
a climax runner or passer, the team
has not shown any great promise.
Princeton, on the other hand, has
a fine passing attack, centered
around the flashy Dave Allerdice.
Halfback Bob Jackson, until re-
Gently on the injured list, is back
in shape and celebrated his return
to the squad by sparkling the varsity
to a fine showing in the last hard
scrimmage yesterday
Coach Tad Wieman has one big
problem facing him, however. He
must fill the right tackle berth left
vacant by the injured Don Herring,
whose left leg may have to be
amputated.
Apparently Les Rice will get the
berth, although Dick Bokum, now in
a fullback post, may get the call.
The Harvard team, however, re-
fused to be downcast, and may sur
prise everyone-including them
selves.
The oss of Capt. Torbey Mac
Donald hurts them badly, but Cliff
Helman, promoted from the scrubs
only day ago, has gwen them a
passer of some note, and that is
cheering news.
The series started back in 1877
and gets its seth renewal Saturday.

Central and Tech football teams
will scribble another memorable
chapter in their robust rivalry to-
morrow at Central Stadium, feud-
ing for the 37th time in chain Of
gridiron dramas, and again the out
come is as uncertain as q brides
biscuits despite the odds favoring
Central.
Probably the ightest Central
team in the history of the Columbia
Heights institution, which averages
only 161 pounds and operates with
backfield averaging only 155, will
reign a slight favorite to thump
Tech for the third straight time.
Central, though, is apprehensive,
fearing one of the upsets which have
spiced the lengthy series.
Central Attack Productive.
Spanked by Benny Steiner and
Harry Martin. a brace OF triple
threaters, and bolstered by the crisp,
accurate blocking of Halfback
James Porter and Fullback Johnny
Bredbenner. the Central backfield
packs an offensive wallop which has
averaged Is points in five engage
mentS.
Central's light line, though, may
have trouble In checking such high
ly regarded Tech backs as Angelo
Catucci, Don Cockrille, Jack Walsh.
Hollidge, Miller, Hall, Green, Vic
McCampbell and Bill Dellastacious.
Coach Artie Wondrack has en-
ployed most of them freely in games
to date and feels his club may reach
its peak against Central.
A sample of Central's lack of heft
will be viewed at some stage of the
game at end, for little Jackie Sam
perton, a 135-pounder, is lauded by
Coach Hardy Pearce as the Blues
most dependable wingman. He isn't
constructed for much heavy duty
however, so Dick Farr and Sam Di
Blast will start at the f1anks.
Likely to be one of the most even

tional series, tomorrows Tech-C Gen.

feud. Tech to date has won is

into the Central coaching spot in
1895. That year his club spanked
Tech, 1870, but lost in 1896, o-6. Gen.
trail won in 1887, 1870, and again last
year, 27-6. Pearce regards the Tech
and Western games this year as
foremost obstacles in Central's path
to third championship in his five
years there.
Currently relishing its gridiron
prominence under Pearce, Central
is in no mood to ease up, especially
against Tech. Down through the
years has passed the story of Gen.
trail suffering defeat after defeat by
Tech when Hap Hardell, now
Georgetown University freshman
football and varsity track coach,
was tutoring there.
Starting in 1928 by dealing Central
the most lopsided defeat Of the
series, 48-0, Tech swept five consecu-
tive games under Hardell, allowing
Central only points over that
stretch and scoring 103. In the last
six seasons, however, the swing has
been to Central, with Tech taking
only two games.
Tech Slow Starting.
Tech, playing its first season un-
der Wondrack, who succeeded Rusty
Thompson when the latter quit his
coaching post to devote more time
to studies, started slowly by drop
ping its first three games. Since
it has displayed marked improve
ment, spilling st. Johns and Roose-
welt impressively.
Central brushed by Gonzaga and
st. Johns. but was stopped by
Washington-Lee High, 14-13, and
since has trounced Roosevelt and
been tied by George Washington
High. That one-point loss to the
Little Generals has been Centrals
only defeat in its last 13 games, al
though it has been tied three times.
The game will start at 3:15 o'clock.
