  YALE PREPS FOR MORE TROUBLE Michigan, Dartmouth Next in BOWl-State Loses First Game 1870 Invigorated by an unexpected triumph over navy, the Yale University football team opened preparalions today for forthcoming clashes with two Of the nations outstanding collegiate elevens. And there was not too much Joy in the Eli camp. The Yale eleven plays host to Fritz Crisler’s Michigan team Saturday, and then, a week later, opens the bowl to the Dartmouth Indians. icMhigan was strong enough to hold Minnesota to a 7–⁠6 victory, while Dartmouth wait ed a reasonable period and then throttled Brown 34–⁠13. The Ellis, nevertheless, shouted their heads of about the 81 sinking of the Navy Saturday. They shouted the praises of Gil Humphrey, who passed to Bill Snavely for a touch down, and then, to make the after noon his, booted field goal in the final- period to provide the Eli mar gin Of victory. Approximately $1,000 spectators viewed the startling proceedings. Navy entered the fray the favorite. and for about flve-eights Of the game dominated the play. Then the Bulldog, already defeated twice, decided things had gone far enough, and produced a final quarter rally which netted points and victory the first of the year. First Loss Connecticut’s only undefeated col lege eleven bit the dust Saturday when Connecticut State invaded Orono to play Maine and came home on the zero end of a 1870 score. States line play was lamentably weak in the. contest, and the back field never was able to move into threatening position for score. Wesleyan returned with an unexpected TO victory over Haverford. Johnny Kay produced the only tally when he received a punt in the third period and raced unframed 70 yards to touchdown. Phelps place kicked the extra point. Trinity played Hobart to 6–⁠6 tie. The Hobart team scored before either side could get its fingers warm, and from then on, was kept in chancery by a fighting Hartford team. Harriss scored the Trinity touchdown in the third period. The U. S. Coast Guard Academy provided somewhat of a surprise by defeating Norwich University, 1870, for its first victory of the year. Bates trounced Arnold 1862 to complete Connecticuts football al endar for the day.
