Eastern Football Championship Far From Decided as Result of Contests Played SaturdayYale Has Reason to RejoiceDespite Defeat by Boston Men

Tad Jones's Eleven Displayed Real Fighting SpiritWhich Promises to Reap Harvest of VictimsLater in Season; Syracuse Faces Another Test

By Ray-McCarthyIn spite of their team's defeat Saturday we think Yale students have

cause for jubilation.perhaps we should better say hopefulness. At thispoint we seem to hear the query, "Whada ya mean, hope and joy?" Thisi» it.tha meaning. In a game that was full of tho good old fightingspirit, in which one hundred and more side fights enlivened the main frayto such an extent that even the spectators were enveloped in the atmos¬phere of the strife. Yale toward the end was showing even more fightthan the Boston College warriors.

All of which should put the New<Haven students In » joyful mood as

regards Yale's remaining games. Forof all the qualities that go to makeup a winning eleven tho fighting in¬stinct that never-say-die stuff Iscinch more to he desired than any¬thing else. A football team can go a

long way on that alone, even if itowns only a couple of simple plays.

Material Ready at HandWe have maintained all along that

the material is there at New Haven.Princeton nor Harvard, nor in fact anyother institution, has a better set offorwards or backs than <4he Blue. Itsends are weak, it is true, but other¬wise there seems to b© plenty ofsplendid material. Jones has the repu¬tation of being a capable coach.

Therefore, what we deduct fromSatutday's struggle íb that this wasthe contest neded to awaken old Eli toits weaknesses and its possibilities.Several shifts undoubtedly would helpand will probably be made, and we'llwager that the rest of Yale's oppon-ents will meet quite a different teamfrom that which went down to defeatSaturday. jA'word about that Boston Collegeoutfit. It won the victory fairly andsquarely, even if aided by a couple offumbles, and it demonstrated in so

doing that it is a team to be reckonedwith during the remainder of the sea-son. It is a veteran squad, containingseveral stars and showed plenty of;good coaching. What is more itshowed what fighting spirit can ac-

complish.We believe the fact it was up against

Yale helped the students from the Hubto put up such a wonderful exhibition.Such is generally the case. But thatof course does not alter the fact thatBoston played the better game Sat¬urday.The hypothetical Eastern football

championship is not going to besettled apparently until later in theseason. Of course if Pitt had wonfrom Syracuse on Saturday or viceversa nothing definite regarding thet'tle would have resulted bu' ohf oftwo top-notchers at least would navebeen eliminated and the ranking ofthe teams at the end of the seasonwould have been made so much easier.It may be that one or both will behosten in the meantime, although wedoubt it very much.

Penn State an ObstacleSyracuse will meet a tough customer

in Dartmouth next week and others inHoly Cross, and Washington and Jef-ferson, while Pittsburgh may have itshopes blasted by Washington and Jef-fereon, Lafayette or Penn State. Butin the interim you can put it downthe Panthers and the Orange belongin the first, class. .

We evidently underrated Harvardand overrated Williams somewhatfrom Saturday's result. Still as yetthe Crimson has shown but little andr.o real criticism can be made of itseleven until it stacks up against an

opponent of mere capability than thoseit has met. Centre next Saturdayshould produce that test.The same can be said for Princeton.

It showed up fairly well against Wash¬ington and Lee, but the Southernersoffered very little opposition and whensuch is the case no comment can bemade. The Navy will make the Tigerstravel a faster pace than any otherteam the Nassau students have yetplayed, but West Virginia the follow-:r.g week will make the Orange andBlack hustle even more. By '.hen weshall know just how good old Nassau is.Penn State gained another lap In

the race for the Eastern title by itsoverwhelming victory over North Caro-lina State, the eleven that whipped theNavy. Georgetown won from NorthCarolina by 27 to 0, but State made it41. State is going to figure promi-r.ently again in the final ranking.The University of Pennsylvania con¬

tinued its good work by winning fromLafayette, offering further evidencethat Heisraan is a regular coach. Thereports say the Easton students out-

?-'-*.played the Red and Blue most of theway and that old Penn was a bit for¬tunate in grabbing oft* a fumbled ballto gain its victory.

That's all in the game and we havealways maintained that the team hav¬ing the better score when the finalwhistle blew was the better team. Out¬playing an opponent in midfield or onisolated sectors never won any battles.

Dartmouth put in one of the busiestafternoons it will have this year hold¬ing off Holy Cross. The ^Worcestereleven persisted in plugging'for touch¬downs and when an eleven becomes an¬noying like that instead of taking itsbeating peacefully there is only onething to do.go out and make moretouchdowns yourself. That is what theGreen did and tho whole furnisheda crowd of 5,000 or mqre a fine after¬noon's entertainment.

Dobie An "Old Fox-By the bye, did you notice what Mr.

Dobie's rejuvenated Cornell team did.nearly annihilated little Union by 60to 0 ? And Dobie says his outfit isterrible. Probably getting worse witheach succeeding week. Football teamshave to hurry some to make 60 pointsin signal practice.Oho, Gilmour,you're an old fox.but a mighty wisecoach, say we.Brown got revenge on Colgate for

its defeat of last year, but we thoughtthe margin of victory would be largerthan 14.0. Colgate must be improving.Lehigh, with its midget backfield of152 pounds per man, is still goingforward, Rochester being the victimSaturday by 41.0. Looks like a hilari¬ous and active Lehigh-Lafayette strug¬gle this year.The Army also showed to better ad¬

vantage on Saturday than In any pre¬vious tussle, in trouncing Springfield.The cadets seem to have more versa¬tility and more power in their offen¬sive this season with French, formerRutgers star, working with Wildhlde,captain and clever quarterback. TheCadets will get their first real testwhen Notre Dame, which trimmedNebraska on Saturday, appears on theplains for the annual conflict.The Navy is shaking hands with it¬self on getting away with Bucknell by7 to 2. It sems to us from its past!performances this fall the midship¬

men are in for a grand licking atPrinceton Saturday. Certainly the An-)napolis students do not seem to begoing as well as they did last year.Rutgers did better in winning fromVirginia Poly than it has done thusfar this year and in so doing is vindi¬cating Foster Sanford, who declareshis crew will be an outfit to contendwith when the first flurries of snowbejrin to arrive.Up in New England several close con¬

tests were played. Maine and RhodeIsland State played to a 7.7 tie; Bow-doin nosed out Trinity by 6.0, Colbydrew first blood in the Maine statechampionship series by defeating Bates13 to 0, and Vermont won a hard-fought struggle from New HampshireStiite b,y 7 to 0. The MassachusettsAggies took a fall out of WorcesterTech by 21 to C> and little BostonUniversity suffered another 7.0 de¬feat, this time at the hands of Middle-bury.

In 1he West, aside from Notre Dame'svictory, there was Illinois' splendidtriumph over Iowa. 20 to 3, whichmakes it appear as though this elevenwill a^oin capture the conferencetitle; Wisconsin trounced Northwest¬ern 27 to 7, Ohio State subdued Pur¬due 17 to 0 and Indiana whipped Min¬nesota 21 to 7. Georgia Tech's 41 to0 victory over Vanderbilt was a sur¬prise, not because of the victory, buton account of the size of the score.

Hudsons Lead in Close GameA hord-fought soccer tilt at Ma-

comb's Dam Park, between the Hud-sons and Woodside A. C, in the cham¬pionship series of the MetropolitanFootball League, yesterday, resulted infavor of the Hudsons by the score of3 goals to 2.

Is Value Sufficient?We* think not, despite the fact that wehave achieved it to an unusual degree bybeing content with less than a fair profit.The well groomed man demands muchmore.style as Fifth Avenue's leadingtailors create it, woolens of fine distinc¬tion, highest type tailoring. and getsall these things here.

(To the man who measures clothes fortheir personal as well as financial advan¬tage we have much to offer, $50 and up.

Local College Elevens MakeGood Showing on Gridiron

Columbia Fans ConfidentTheyHaveStrongTeam ;N.Y.U. Up From BehindPlaying without the services of its

star quarterback, "Bunk" Harris, Co¬lumbia on Saturday showed a power¬ful offense in winning from Amherst.Tho Blue and White followers arenow convinced "Buck" O'Neill has a

real football team, and are lookingforward to victories over succeedingopponents.The locals after obtaining a big lead

in the first half, though, showed atendency to let up, with the resultthe visitors gained consistently andscored a touchdown. This is a weak¬ness or a fallacy O'Neill will have tocorrect. For once a team lets downor lets up in its momentum it seldomcan get into stride again during thatparticular game.

In the first, half the Blue and Whiteforwards did their work well and thewhole machine moved forward in uni¬son and with plenty of drive. Butthen came the let-up. Underrating ortaking an opponent too lightly hasproved costly to many teams before.Columbia cannot afford to do this.New York University had a merrylittle scran with the speedy Wesleyan{'even, and incidentally in tying the

Middletown students the New Yorkersdemonstrated that they possess theproper fighting spirit to a high degreeUp until the last few minutes oíplay the Violet was trailing by 13 to 7Defeat appeared certain. But Gargan's{.loteges kept plugging. And the breakcarae. A fumblo of one of Wein-1.rimer's high spirals was converted intea touchdown and the University Heightsstudents were able to get an everbreak on the day.

Little Stevens kept its splendid record intact by defeating the hard\Swarthmore warriors. The Hobokerstudents turned loose a high-powcrecmachine which swept the Quaker éleverback steadily and relentlessly. Durburrow's charges also shone on thidefense.

In Ba.iusz Durburrow has anothelplayer of the type of Bloss and wh<is making the Jersey students forgeall about the latter. His open fielerunning was about the best ever seerat Swarthmore. Here «gain fightinfspirit also played a prominent part iithe victory, for after it had taken tinlead, Stevens hung onto its advantagiwith a death-like grip in spite of thistrenuous efforts of the local player;to get on even terms.Fordham, with several regulars ou

of the line-up, had a harrowing afternoon of it beating Villanova. If thivisitors had done less of the Marqui;de Queensberry stuff and played monfootball they might have even received a tie.

The Bronx students showed considerable speed, but lacked unity amcompactness in their play. When th<regulars return and the coaches iroiout the rough spots the team will probably play a smoother game, which the;will have to do if they hope to tunback Georgetown next Saturday.

Commercial TeamHas a Fine ChanceFor Brooklyn TitleWith the scholastic football season

just two weeks old, there are alreadythree teams which stand out as theprobable winners of the championshipsin their boroughs. The schools whichhave thus far shown themselves su¬perior to their opponents are Do WittClinton in Manhattan, CommercialHigh School in Brooklyn, and FlushingHigh School in Queens.De Witt Clinton's victory on Satur¬

day over the strong eleven of EastSide High School of Newark is an in-;dication that "Doc" Cook has againdeveloped a strong, well-drilled eleven.It was Clinton's second victory of theseason. A real line on tho Tenth Ave-1nue school's ability will not be gaineduntil it meets some of the strongermetropolitan team*, but on the basisof its play In the two contests, Clin-ton's supporters are confident thatjtheir team is in line for another chain-pionship.

In Brooklyn there seems to be butone team in Commercial's path to theborough title, and that is Erasmus,These two teams will meet next Satur-jday in a contest which should deter¬mine the championship. Commercialis the surprise team of Brooklyn, andon Saturday practically eliminated PolyPrep from the race by winning, 7 to 0.In its other two games this year, Com¬mercial tied Stuyvesant, 7 to 7, and de¬feated Manual, 14 to 0.Erasmus came to grief last Saturdaywhen Harrisburg Tech rolled up thelargest score recorded against Erasmusin several years, defeating the Blue bya score of -10 to 0. Erasmus, however,is represented by a fighting eleven andhas managed to defeat two Brooklynteams by close margins, beating St.¡John's Prep, 3 to 0, and New Utrecht,13 to 6.Flushing High School, with three ofthe five players who were ineligiblefor the opening game back in the line¬

up, is showing the form of last year,,when it won tlio city title. After itsdefeat by New Utrecht in the openinggame, Flushing has beaten two strongteams, winning from Morris, 7 to 0, andfrom St. John's, 28 to 3. on Saturday.

Princeton Scouts WarnTigers Against NavyPRINCETON. N. J., Oct. 17..Will-¡am D.

Both are of thefirm conviction that the midshipmenwill be the most formidable opponentsPrinceton has yet struck.

Although the Navy men were slow ingetting started, the scouts say, that theeleven has improved by J*?aps andbounds, and that the team that linedup against North Carolina and La¬fayette was far below the caliber ofthe combination which defeated Buck-nell on Saturday. The addition ofKing, Moore, Wilkie and Belles, whorecently returned with the victoriousNavy crew from Englan 1, havestrengthened the eleven considerably,

Fordham's Showing. In Villanova Game

Displeases CoachCoach Joe Dumoe, of the Fordham

football team, will have his chargesworking out on Fordham Field this af¬ternoon at 2 o'clock, and the Maroonathletes do not expect to be sent to theshowers until darkness makes furtherpractice impossible. The Fordhammentor was far from pleased with theshowing his team made against Villa-nova on Saturday, and he did not mincewords in telling the players how hefelt about it after the contest.Of course, the Maroon eleven was

tremendously handicapped by injuries.Six regulars were out of the line-up,and such a handicap would upset theteamwork of any aggregation. Never¬theless, injuries are to be expected infootball, and, unless the Fordham sub-stitutes can display a much betterbrand of football than they did on Sat¬urday, they cannot hope for much suc¬cess when they meet teams such asGeorgetown, the University of Detroitand Holy Cross.One thing the Fordham players will

have to learn, and learn quickly, isthat breaking the rules of the gamedoes not pay. The team lost over 150yards in penalties in Saturday's con¬test, and it could have scored at leastthree more touchdowns were it not fortho fact that, nearly every time itsucceeded in getting the ball in thevisitors' territory tho advantage waslost because of a penalty.The Villanova players did not show

anything like the form that was ex¬pected. They did not succeed in mak¬ing a first down throughout the en¬tire contest. They were extremelygreen and did not seem-to be familiarwith their signals.

IN ALL FAIRNESSBy W. O. M'GEBHAN

OUT in Chicago to-day will begin one of the most important baseballmeetings in the history of the game. The object of this meetingis a most commendable one. It is planned to institute a general

housecieaning that will remove for all time all the crocks and barnaclesof high and low degree that have been threatening the life of the sport.

No half way measures at this time will suffice. Public confidence inthe integrity of this professional sport was rudely shocked, if not shaken,by the wholesale confessions of the discredited White Sox players. Nordoes it appear that the crookedness which has been confessed in the

playing end of the game was confined exclusively to the major leagues.On the Pacific Coast and in the Southern Association it now appears

the gamblers were plying their contemptible trade through the means of a

few cheaply bought stools. A grand jury in California has set judicialwheels in motion which probably will achieve as startling results as havebeen effected by the Cook County grand jury.

Major league scouts who attended the world's series games betweenCleveland and Brooklyn declared that managers of that circuit were

suspicious of crookedness throughout the summer. It was suspected thatcertain players in the employ or control of the gamblers had workingsigns with agents of the bettors who laid wagers not only on the resultof the games but on the possibilities of certain star batsmen reachingfirst base.

In any scandal of the proportions to which the Cook County investi¬gation has already developed there is bound to be more or less loose talk.Certain authorities and close connections with the operation of professionalbaseball have intimated that eventualities may prove one or more blacksheep associated with practically every major league club. The truth or

falsity of this will develop in the near future, no doubt.

Eleven of Sixteen Clubs Indorse Lasker PlanIRRESPECTIVE of the extent to which professional gambling has gained

control, enough already has been uncovered of dishonesty and deceitto call for the stern repression of every dishonest influence, be such lo¬cated among player, owner or official.

The organization.or, rather, lack of organization.of professionalbaseball openly invited the storm of trouble in which it finds itself.Here, for a year, in a business in which millions are invested, there hasbeen no head to its government. The chairmanship of the National Com¬mission has been vacant all that time. There has been absolutely no co¬

operation between the two big families of the association, the major andminor leagues, respectively.

In Chicago to-day it is hoped representatives of all sixteen majorleague clubs will meet jointly. Certain it is all eight National Leagueteams will be represented. The three most powerful clubs of the AmericanLeague.New York, Chicago and Boston.will be on hand.

These eleven clubs have indorsed the Lasker plan for a new govern¬ment of professional baseball; a government by a board of influentialAmericans who have no financial interests in professional baseball butwho would command implicit respect and faith in the country at large.

The revolutionary faction of the American League which opposedPresident Ban Johnson in the Carl Mays fight in the courts for the firsttime enjoys the support and cooperation of an undivided National League.This is a power bound to make itself felt. If Mr. Johnson and the fiveclub owners who stuck so solidly with him through the Mays trouble de¬termine to ignore this big Chicago meeting it is not improbable that a newwar of gigantic proportions will develop. The strongest clubs of the twomajor leagues have intimated that they are ready to lock their parks nextyear, if necessary, to force a thorough "housecieaning" from cellar togarret.

Task Confronts V. S. Tennis PlayersTPHE same task that confronted Brookes and Wilding in 1914, namely,

the winning of the Davis Cup unaided, except by their own individualefforts, as singles and doubles players, faces William T. Tilden 2d, world'sand national tennis champion, and William M. Johnston, national doublestitle holder.

These two men, the foremost tennis players in America and theworld to-day, are due to leave the United States early next month on thefar way to New Zealand, where they will meet the defending Austral¬asian team in the challenge round of the Davis Cup classic. It is truethat Watson M. Washburn, of this city, will be the third member of thechallenging team, but it is not to be supposed that his will be more than a

passive position, unless there are unforeseen accidents to either Tilden oíJohnston.

Brookes, Gerald Patterson, Q'Hara Wood, a young player namedAnderson and perhaps one or two of the Australian veterans are all thatthe Antipodeans have to rely upon in the defense of the cup. Althoughthe first three named are formidable against any opposition, it is theopinion of competent tennis critics that "Big Bill" and "Little Bill," insingles and in doubles, will be able to repeat the great triumph thaiBrookes and Wilding scored in 1914, when they defeated the rest of th«world on the courts.

Football in for Most Popular SeasonA MERICAN college football seems more popular to-day than at any time

in its history. The attendances everywhere throughout the prelimi¬nary season presage a banner year for the gridiron sport.

It is true that since the ending of the World War sport-loving nation«have embraced all manner of red-blooded sports with greater Intereslthan ever before. This has been noticeable in baseball, In tennis, in golfin boxing and in horseracing.

Still, American college football Is a game peculiar unto Itself, and a;it is confined almost exclusively to institutions of learning, It depends foisupport to a great extent upon the uninitiated. In the old days of solicmass play none but the experts could follow a game closely, and even thejhad to guess about half the time.

The opening up of football play by such innovations as the forwarcpass and onside kick has resulted in a vastly improved game, and ontwhich the uninitiated can follow with a certain degree of understandingNo longer is there the oldtime premium on beef and brawn. As in baseball, obscure colleges are now able to make a showing against the biguniversities, as witness the triumph of little Boston over big Yale. Thenis now almost as much uncertainty to football as baseball; and this un¬certainty is perhaps the secret of the new game's- charm.

The hold that athletics generally have gained on college life wa¡forcibly illustrated at West Point Saturday. The time-honored dres:parade of the cadets saw an innovation when 1,500 cadets passed in review clad in various types of athletic costume.football, basketball, lacrosse, soccer, tennis and polo. The young soldiers seemed proud of thiinew regalia, a badge of general athletic improvement in the serviceschool.

Carpentier ¡So Match for DernpseyCHOUGH Georges Carpentier, the French idol, knocked out BattlingLevinsky in the fourth round of their bout at Jersey City, Columbu:Day, he did not impress us as a likely successor to the heavyweight crowiof Jack Dernpsey.

Carpentier showed flashes of greatness, especia*/ in hitting powerBut he did not finish off the light heavyweight, after Bat was practicall;out on his feet, as a real champion is expected to do. Carpentier is sgreat man for his weight and inches. He is both too small and too opeifor one of Dempsey's speed, stamina and hitting power.

It is said that Carpentier was ill (and had been ill for several daysprevious to the fight. If this be true, perhaps the Frenchman shouknot be submitted to snap judgment. But the fact remains he will have Udispose of some few others likely to furnish stiffer contention than di<Levinsky before his pretensions against Dernpsey can be taken seriously
