It Is ooutitlul whether becretary weeks THE WJfJ li The West Point cheering section supported Its uphill fighting team with the same spirit that the men in the trenches rallied behind ths heroes that nt over the top. As a matter of fact, ths tv'eit Point eleven went over the top this afternoon, In the first touchdown of ths year against a Yale eleven, which stands fully an sven chance of outscorlhg Princeton and Harvard in ths finsl matches of ths season. Officially, West Point waa entertained by Ysls at the home of President Angell, whose personal guests wars Secretary of War Weeks. General MacArthur, commandant. West Point; General Clarence Edwards, formerly of the New England 'YD" Division, and Untied States Senator Jimmy Wadsworth of New York state, who baa worn a Yais football uniform hlttj-self, who played first base at Yale for three years, and who captained the nine la bis senior year.

Notutbles Are Present. General Dlas, the famous Italian general, was welcomed by the Yale ofnclals. Ills arrival was late and waa not Impressive, ss ths crowd In general had no chance to greet or even see him. lu fact the game wss far from a gay or "brilliant spectacle but the somber gray service was always conspicuous in ths picturs. Of ths 74,000 people who saw the bout, few went away from ths Bowl before the West Point cadets bjhd left their seats, had rormed a military companies on the gridiron and had marched by squads through ths portals from the playing Held.

Ths lustiest evstlon of ths afternoon was given the company of 1.400 Uncle Sam's service men as they disappeared through tbs gates ef the Bowl. The Army lived up to Its traditions better than the Kits for there was no Yale buldog on the eide-ilnes. The Army mule was in evidence, however, leading the cadets as they marched on the field and occupying a place on the side-lines during ths game. The Army cheer leader rode astride on the mule's back and from this vantag point megaphoned hla cheering orders. OS Parting Headed by Major Hoyle, the Yale Artillery commandant, the West pointers were escorted back through the city, to their special train leaving here at o'clock.

Everywhere they were given a parting ovation, for th Impression made by them, as student soldiers was faultless. Although West Point practically filled the Yale Bowl, a feat accomplished never before by Harvard and Princeton, and not always by Princeton, West Point Is given credit by Yale of accomplishing the feat by the high standard and quality and attractiveness of the Armys good name. of ths war departmsnt would havs al lowed the Army slsvsn to come to New Haven, it Yale was not a branch of his department by maintaining Its largs officers' training corps, which was organized in 1111, before any other university formed such a department, and which had 6uu officers ready to give Uncle am when us stail.d to lick the Kaiser two years later. It was the Army mule and the Yale bulldog, in song and In slang, but It was ths West Point and the Yale military companies, under whose auspices ths game was played. Ysle was host and West 1'olnt the guest The Yale artillery battalion the West Point cadet corps on Its arrival at the railroad station and acted as military sscort ss ths visitors marched In their somber drab gray uniform up Chap.

Ths Wsst Pointers dined at the Tsle Commons, and at 1 o'clock formed la line, and with ths Yate battalion still as sscort, marched to Yale Field. They stopped at Gracs Hospital and Bt, Raphael's Hospital on ths way and formally salutsd the sick and Injursd formsr service men who are being treated in the two Institutions. There was a faint cheer of responso at the salutation of the West Pointers, who continued their march to the Tale Bowl.

Fully 10,000 people were la their eeata at 1:44 o'clock when the West ITolnters came through ths portals of ths Bowl, msrchsd upon ths gridiron, where they were reviewed In simple marching tactics, after which they took their seals oa the east aids of ths Bowl, directly behind the benches of the West Point players. There was no dress parade and the crowd realised that the old West Point of tbe before the war days waa gone forever. The West Point which the Yale eleven always found on its annual trip up the Hudson, the last ef which was taken in 112, two years before the World War; the West Point of gay uniform and dress parads has been replaced by the service gray which is a stranger to tlnael and gold braid, and the war wbaki ef the Yale battalion gave the impression of workmen who taking an afternoon off to play football. No Flag Tarried. On the march through the cltv and In the review In the gridiron, no United mates nag was carried.

This waa a surprise to the thousand who, on th streets and in ths Bowl, saw the soldiers of ths two war colleges march, but it was explained that the Blue of Yale and the' Gray and Oold of West Point wars ths only flags fittingly carried. Both Ysls and West Point had Ita brass bands in ths parade and in the stands, and eah blared away the favorites songs of the two institutions. The cheering sections cracked away at each other In crisp stacato all ths afternoon. Yale's cheering section favored its two hlstorio war cries, "Army-Good-Nlght." and "March On-Down-The-Fleld- while the West Point-ars mads a hit with a topical song about the army mule and bulldog In which the canine decidedly got the worst of It. This was either written or adapted for the occasion and the Yale crowd cheered it to the echo.

Army Goes Over Top. A stunt which was pullsd off In th Army stands constatsd of tossing some lightweight membere of th cadet corps up in a bllnket and rolling him on ths shoulder of the other cadet. This waa also warmly appreciated by tha Tale crowd '4 KID KAPIJVN.

And It was Just two minutes after o'clock, one mln-ote after the sun had said "so-long" for tha day, that Harkness K. and Lena Zombro, contenders for the top of the summary In the 2:19 trot, heard Chet Pike's long, drawn-out "Go." The atand won a race against time, fr.ut It didn't have much to spare. When Harkness IS. flashed under the wlra In front of Lena Zombro and Henry Mac In the fifth heat, there were lust twenty and a half minutes left before sunset time, giving the stand only half a minute In which to notify the double-heat winners that they were due back In twenty minutes.

Nukerson, driver by Lena Zombro, would have preferred that tha race end with the fifth- hot, but probable attempts by him to delsy an appearance for tha fifth heat were apparently' frustrated by Charles rUlckney. presiding Judge, who saw to It that Lena Eumbro was on the track on scheduled time.

Former Wins 28-7, Getting Firm Grip On Catholic Championship.

Worcester, Oct. 22. Georgetown rod roukhshod over Holy Cross onI'ltton Field today and galnod a firm grip on the Catholic college football championship of the hat. The score ut 28 to 7 suggests, ut does not adequately express the Georgetown superiority, Taking away the Holy Cross touchdown, which was a gift, (fives a truer Judgment as to the worth of the elevens. The one score by the Worcester team came in the first period when a tricky wind carried the ball away from rjufour, who barely touched It! turning lllopcl's fall on the pigskin across the goal Una Into a touchdown.

At no other time waa Holy Cross dangerous. Never Cot fiolng. The Purple warriors never got going, uncovorlng nothing to win a rating alonirsiile tho rudder all-around work of the vlsltora. Holy Cross showed a few flashes of the stuff that worried Hurvurd, but Its driving power was seldom long sustained. Georgetown excelled tha enemy at the letter's vaunted forte, speed.

Weights was, of course, a factor, the Georgetown eleven outweighing its rival to a man. Fumbling was frequent. Holy Cross KdUIng the best of the breaks when the plKokln became unruly. The outstanding ploy of tha day was a forward pass, which encornpastied the fourth Georgetown touchdown, Kenyon shooting the ball twenty yards to O'Connnll, who caught It over the goal line, lylns; flat on hla fare. It waa ths only forward pass attempted In the game.

The Army had less thsn 1,000 alumni present, but the Army team and the magnetism of the cadet corp drew sportsmen from all over the East, not as college man, out as lovers of the quality of atntettcs wnicn the West Pointers always provide. The Army colors fluttered here and there in the Bowl, but the Blue of Yale prevailed, 10 to 1, yet the dashing gridiron performers, the crisp cheers and songs of the West Pointers and their bua- Ines silks appearance made them favorites witn the crowd from the time they reached the city until they disappeared. Yale Is pledged to go to West Point for a return game next year, but the custom of bring ing the Army eleven to the Bowl for a matcn on alternate seasons Is one which today's performance wll lestahllsh aa a feature of the Tale schedule.
