PROSPECTS POOR
FOR EVEN FAIR

spicuous By Absence;

BY JACK ZAIMAN

New Haven, Conn, Oct. 3 - u.
P0 - Last year, it was two wins and
six losses for the Yale University
| football team. Not so good.
1t may be worse this year.
But four days remain before the
1889 version of the Bulldog eleven
takes the field against Columbia in
the seasons opener for both teams
Those who have watched the Ellis in
practice for the past two or three
weeks are agreed it looks like a dis
NAL season for the Yale team.
TIL principal reason? Simply this
No material.
And so today, Coach Ducky Pond
and his staff of assistants have
started to concentrate on passing
attack, creation of an aerial often
sive to take the place of an absent
ground attack.
The backfield is mot so hot, as
one observer put it bluntly. Coach
Pond has put Freddie Burr and Ted
Harrison to work tossing pass after
pass, with Sterling Brinkley and
Alan Bartholmey, ends, as receivers.
Midgets?
The backfield is composed of men
who are not too tall as football play
ers go, a decided handicap in a sky
offensive. The ends probably will
be assigned the principal pass-re-
ceiving posts.
Besides Burr and Harrison, Pond
has Backfield Man Hal Whiteman,
Tony Mott, and Hovey Seymour, q
Greenwich sophomore who has
shown some ability as a runner and
punter, but still is untried in major
league competition.
Not one of the backfield men is of
real big-time stature. Composed
mainly Of short men, the Eli back
field, in the opinion of veteran OBJ
servers, may be vulnerable to pass
ing offensives on the part Of the
enemy.
Hopeful
On the line, the situation Is some
what better.
Brinkley and Bartholmey appear
assured for the end posts. Brinkley
has been to the wars two years now,
while Bartholmey is an unknown
Billy lilly Is fair reserve man for
an end position.
At the tackles there are two vet
Grams, Cy Taylor and Bob Brooks.
With several good reserve tackles,
the situation here Is rosy.
Two lettermen appear at the
guards-Jim Dern and Cape Bur-
nam, without much Of a reserve
force behind them.
At the center post will be Captain
Bill Stack, good man to have
around in an emergency.

Marcel Camp, youthful worlds

meteoric rise into the top spot left

hibition match against Waterbury's
leader, Danny Martin, at the Mat
tatuck Billiards Hall, next Sunday
at 1880 p. m.

caused by Marcel Camp when he
conquered in rapid succession Ralph
Greenleaf and Frank Taberski dur

Pocket Billiards tournament at De-
troit. Taberski was the defending
champion, and Greenleaf, Ultimate
winner of the crown that year, has
held the title for 9 years, excepting
few short intermissions.
But Marcel has never been a re-
spector of reputation, and clever,
sustained stroking carried him to
clean-cut victories over the "Gray
