  III Deatins the WearerS or the Orange and Black, therefore, in the way they did, 13 to 0, and ten first downs to none, the middies gave wonderful exhibiton. Their great victory entities them 70 first place for the time being, at least. The Annapolis students still have two very staunoh opponents in Penn State and the Army to overcome before they end their season. If they win both of these contests, as well as their other games, they will be in commanding position when the curtain is lowered on December /. There are three other teams stepping along impressively just behind the Navy. They are Syracuse, Yale and Lafayette The Eastonians have al ready proved their worth by downing the crack Pittsburgh outfit, and with an array of stars appear 10 be headed for u most successful season. Hard Tests for Syracuse Both Syracuse and Yale will meet eXacting tests this week The Orange coached by the heady and peppery little “Chick” MeehaN, has come along brilliantly and without any apparent undue exertion. But IN meeting Pittsburgh the upstate eleven viii be facing the hardest opposition on its schedule The Panthers Will be in better shape for the Syracuse game than they were when they played Lafayette. For one, Tom Davies, the captain and wonde rful back, will be in the lineup. He was injured when Pittsburgh played the tastonians and gQt into the struggle for only a short time. The other member OF the Panther eleven will also be in better condition to meet the Salt City students. The crafty Glenn Warner withheld most Of his regulars in Saturdays game against / Cincinnati and you can rely upon it he will leave nothing undone to defeat ! Syracuse, which IS one Of Pittsburgh 5 / big rivals. Tale’s task next Saturday viii not be so difficult as that of Syracuse. Never ( theless, the Els will get hard. rough, rugged struggle from the West Point ers and viii have to put on real brand of football TO come through with colors flying. The New Haven stu dents got by the Williams game nicely without having to show too much Of whatever new stuff they may have. O’Hearn Makes Good This contest also marked the first appearance of young Charlie O’Hearn, star quarterback, as varsity pilot. / OHearn, who WAS i’ll the first part Of lHe season, mas DeeN IN only TWO Scrlnimages and it was thought he would not be in proper condition TO play against the cadets. His work this week will harden him considerably and it is like ly he will start against West Point. In the short time he was in the game Sat urday ne lived up to ali the good things said about him. We shall discuss the good points and the defects of the Army’s play in a special story tomorrow. Harvard is certainly not up to its standard of last year or several previous years, as was proved by Saturdays game with Georgia University. This team is not as good as many 9TH ers in the South and the Crimson, with a real machine. should have won By q / bigger margin than 10 to 7. Penn starting with an SO to victory over Delaware has gone the other d. rection so rapidly there is danger OF the Red and Blue drifting to the rocks Starting next Saturday the Philadelphians will meet real football teams in Virginia Military, Pittsburgh, Lafayette and Dartmouth. Looks like d bumpety- bump road for Penn from now on. Columbia on Up Grade Columbia is starting to show its rea worth now. In defeating New Yorl

Hartly dropped the ball and Kane, Harvard captain. reoov- cred on Geprgias 2o-yard line. The little gain that Harvard was able to make through the Georgia line was nullified by & penalty. and the Crimson had to kick to score. Toward the latter part of the pe- .iod the Georgians were coming into their own. J. Reynolds interception of a Harvard forward pass. made possible by a collision between liar yards receiver and the umpire, and J. Bennett’s block of Harvard punt which Murray recovered, had placed the ball in Georgia’s possess sion on Harvard’s 2o-yard line when the period ended.
