Delaware Held To
Tie By West Chester
loontinued from First Pager


versity team last week, will be
cunning for revenge and seeking to
regain the upper hand in the SER
les.
Victories were scarce for the Blue
and Gold in Convention Hall where
the two teams met annually from
1882 until 1899, and on only two
occasions did the Delaware COM
bine emerge victorious. The first
game played under lights in the
spacious auditorium went to the
Hens by a 7-6 margin who also
held the upper hand in 1886 when
a 60 win was recorded.
Completely dominating the SER
les, the Cadets. after losing the
1882 clash, turned in wins the next
three years, $50 in 1888, 1910 in
1884. and 10 in 1885. The 1886 de-
feat was followed by three more
conquests, 80 in 1887, 1922 in 1888,
and 300 in 1899, after which the
site was moved to Wilmington
Park.
Failing to click against the Tea
chers with the form shown late
in 1910, the Hens were unable to
get their ground attack function
ing until late in the last quarter
when they marched from their own
45-yard stripe to West Chester's
seven where the final gun ended all
hopes for a last-minute victory.
Special attention this week has
been devoted to improvement of the
Delaware pass defense which prov
ed unable to stop the Teachers
dangerous offensive who earned the
deadlock via this route. The invad-
ers connected for a 44-yard pass
in the third period to earn the tie
after Delaware had scored in the
second quarter after a blocked kick
was recovered on West Chester's
seven-yard line.
Reported to be much improved
over last year, p. M. C. is rated
as the strongest eleven on the
Hens 1941 schedule and Coach
Murray has paced his charges
through long daily drills in prep
aration for the clash.
Hopes for a Delaware victory are
built around the nucleus of veter-
ans, headed by Bill (Red) Hogan,
ace sophomore ball carrier, who
tossed the touchdown pass to Fred
Sloan on Saturday. and Melvin
(Ripper) Brooks. speedy senior,
who was big gun in defeating the
Cadets last year.

Choice of Milford was made, in
order to avoid the shifting labor
troubles often found in less settled
sections it was stated by Harry
Pack in an earlier interview re-
garding the new plant. The large
number of dI essing plants in the
extreme lower end of the state at
the present. make it easy for labor
to shift from one to another, with
ease, Mr.. Pack pointed out.
Dave Pack will be in direct
charge of the operations Of the
Milford plant, while Mike Pack
will remain, mostly in Cranbury,
N. j., to watch over their present
plant there. Harry Pack who is
building a new home on the dupont

IVY LEAGUES
 GRID HOPEFULS
 IN FIRST TESTS
Harvard Up Against Penn. sylvania; Virginia at
 Vale Bowl

Boston, october 3. - (UP) = Har- yard and Yale, once potent gridiron powers but Ivy League doormats in recent years, i1augurate their lo4l gridiron campaigns tomorrow hope ful of improved Showings.
 Three other major New England college eievens continue their ef- forts to remain undefeated, and BoS- ton College. beaten by Tulane, con- fines It's efforts to practiciiig for Q return to the win column against Clemson next week. Ut
 Holy Cross. rated tops In this sec- ton on the basis ofits surprise vic. tory over Louisiana State and Dart. mouth and Yale all are favored to win.
 Harvard has a fair chance to start Its most testing schedule iil recent years with triumph over PennSyl- Yania at Philadelphia, but Brown definitely will be the underdog in It's clash with Columbia ct New York.
 Holy Gross, with a red-hot Ale America prospect in fullback Johnny Qrigas, should win as 1t chooses against Providence College, only breather on It's schedule, at Wor- cester. Grigas, a heavyweight sprinter who scored three touch- downs against L. s. D., heads a pack of sterling backs.
 Yale Favored
 Under new Coach Spike Nelson successor to Ducky Pond, Yale is favored to get off on the right foot against Virginia at New Haven.
 Dartmouth, with a 35-0 win over Norwich under its belt, probably will duplicate that lopsided victory margin against Amherst at Hanover N. H.
 With practically the same lineup that surprised last season with a 10-1O tie, Harvard will field start ing team at least the equal of Penn sylvania, but the Atheltic Depart ment's economy -mindedness may prove costly to the Criinson's chances. Coach Dick Harlow. start ing his seventh season at Harvard only was able to take 29 players though several reserves were ex- pected to make the trip on their own
 Brown has plenty of scoring power in its backfield but weaknesses ir the middle of the line leave it little chance of conquering Columbia.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1941-10-03

has to depend on It's first string lin, while Ohio State has its usual wealth of material, pick the Co., lumbus entry.
 Southern Methodist has @ fine band and a couple of white ponies, but I doubt that the Mustangs have enough football talent to success fully cope with Fordham at the Polo Grounds. Sleepy Jim Crowley has line problem at that. If he had six linemen to match as many remarkable backs the Rams couldn't miss.
 Tennessee has Johnny Butler, a spot runner of ability, but lost heavily by graduation, so my guess is that Duke will get even In Dur ham for last seasons early reverse at the hands of the Volunteers, who also are without the full-tine coach- ing of Maj. Robert Reese Neyland.
 If Louisiana State considered Holy Cross tough, wait until the Tigers bump into Pete Layden and fine Texas team in Austin. VIRGINIA LOCK
 AGAINST YALE
 Virginia revealed enough out of Its newly adopted T against La- fayette to make Frank Murray's men a lock against Yale in the Bowl.
 Purdue was upset by Vanderbilt's

threat among state high school teams. The fact remains that An- sonia, Q 7-0 winner over Crosby last week, Is almost sure to give WIlby the keenest sort of opposition from start to finish, though Q win for Wiiby will look very good at this stage of the competition. Mike Calo, dependable Wilby tackle has q little eg troube but should be available for most of the game, for Wilby was deefated last year at AnSonia by greater margin than the Wildcats defeated Gilbert last Saturday.
 Under Lights
 CrosbyS trip to Torrington will be made for Q night game at Fllssenich Park, set for starting ct 7:30 o'clock and with the natural rivalry on field, court and diamond for many years between Torrington and Crosby teams, plus high school football game under lights, augers well for . crowd of 1000 fans, maybe more.
 With Adams, Leavenworth back to be kept out of todays game be- cause of Q shoulde rinjury, the rainy weather may make possible an en. tire weeks rest for the Tech team which will play Commercial next week if possible, should today's game have to be cancelled.

 Buff Donelli left Duquesne, but he couldn't take his team with him. It will be in Pittsburgh to repulse Tulsa thes night of October 3.
 Kansas State is over It's head against Bill deCorrevont and North western in Evanston.
 Missouri will catch It's breath against Colorado at Columbia.
 Andy Kerr once more unleaches his rare combination of Colgate veterans and sophomores, so 1t will be just too bad for Penn State in Buffalo.

Pennsylvania lost Frank Reagan and many more, but has enough left to repel Harvard on Franklin field.
 Cornell was another club de- nobilized by graduation, but Carl Snavely has way of coming up with replacements. The Big Red is my choice against Syracuse in e dog fight at Ithaca.
 Columbia, never overhurdened with men, has lost two of its best backs since practice started, yet the Lions get my vote against Brown in New York. New York university Is given Q shaky vote at Easton against the Lafayette
