HALLAHAN Yale Is expected to start the same team against Dartmouth In the Bowl at New Haven on Saturday that was against the West Point Cadets at the opening kick off last week.

Coach Mai Stevens evidently is satisfied with the combination as a beginner, which means Barres and Hickok will be the ends; Ferris and Vincent, tackles; Loeser and Capt Greene, guards, and Palmer; center, with Bob Hall calling the signals at quarterback, and Dunn, Miller and Charlie Snead as the other members of the backfield. But before the game is very old Coach Stevens will follow the same tactics as list week, and shoot in his best scoring combination, Albie Booth and Austen into the backfield, with Truxton Hare Jr, ex-St Marks School lad and son of the great Truxton Hare of Pennsylvania fame, at right guard and Phillips at center. These four players did much to lift the Ells out of their lethargy against the soldiers. They were responsible for overcoming a handicap of 13-0 and then continuing on to win the game. Whether it was Booth alone, or not, it is known that the quartet added a drive and a punch to the Yale team that the stalwart soldiers combat.

F.1I8LEY DUE TO Bad Cold Keeps Colbert Out of Starting Team One position that is causing Coacl. Joe McKenney of Boston College plenty of Is toe quarterback berth.

With toe graduation of Al Weston last June, toe Eagles were left without dependable pilot. Capt Paddy Creeden was tried at toe position at toe start of toe season. He came up to expectations in running toe but, when everything was going along smoothly, toe Brockton flash Was injured, and could not last a full game. Continuing his work of converting halfbacks, McKenney turned to Joe Mtrley, another regular from last years undefeated and tried him out at calling toe plays. Mirley came along very fast, and was running the team until he was Injured in toe Day-ton game and was kept out of the lineup against Canislus.

George Colbert, forward pass specialist, was then given the assignment. Colbert is a natural quarter and strengthened ths team with his accurate passing and kicking. He started against Canislus and played such a fine game that he seemed, to have toe berth clinched for the rest of the year. However, toe ill luck that has been after B. C.

quarterbacks bfel him and Colbert is now out of the starting lineup because of a bad cold. He may be able to get Into toe game Saturday but he will not strt since McKenney wants him right for toe Fordham game. As a result either Creeden or Mirley will run the team with indications pointing to the Everett hoy as the starter. Creeden will start the game hut may not star in long. The Boston College squad is not taking toe Duke team Slightly.

The Eagles are in a tough position, as they want to maintain -their undefeated record and yet do not want to risk any injuries the week before the Fordham game a week from Saturday. Two years ago Duke team, looked upon at an average outfit, played the Eagles off their feet and won by the- score of 1 25 to 9. Two things stood out In that game, the bullet-like passing of Sam -Buie and toe wonderful running and receiving of John Jankowski, who scored the four touchdowns. Last year the Eagles defeated the Southerners, 19 to 0, but had no easy afternoon. Buie and Jankowski again were outstanding and were responsible for most of Duke's gains.

The Blue Devils outrushed toe Eagles and made 14 first downs to toe Eagles Beven. This year Buie and Jankowski are again with toe team and McKenney will have his men watch them, especially. If Colbert gets into toe game, the fans will be treated to a wonderful forward passing duel between toe two teams. Buie has a peculiar style of leaping Into toe air and throwing a short fiat pass over toe line of scrimmage. Sure Shot Colbert needs no introduction to the Boston fans.

A. Comiskey, i who ha been sick all Summer on his farm In -Wisconsin, has returned to Chicago to build plans for remaking his Sox a contender for toe American League championship. The first move of the Old Roman was to call Donle Bush, new manager of the sox, for a conference next week to plan for obtaining material. Comiskey will discuss the case of Arthur (the Great) Shires, and it is expected the recalcitrant first baseman will be retained. Bush, shortly after he signed to manage the Sox, expressed admiration for Shires ball playing and said he expected no difficulty in handling the Texan.

Bush also has plans for trades which he will present to Comiskey. MANSFIELDTOWNTEAM WANTS GAME FOR SUNDAY Mansfield Town team la without a game at home for Sunday, duo to a cancellation. Manager- R. B. Polands address 1 15 Hodges st, Mansfield.

The Harvard Club of Detroit Is planning to entertain the Boston visitors on the way home. The train leaves the South Station at 4:15 Friday afternoon, Nov 9, and Is due back in Boston at 5 oclock Sunday afternoon. Some five or ten years ago the relations between college academic and college athletic authorities were such that arsenic hardly would have been absent from any meal which the two might eat together.

How much improved the relations between these two camps are may best be judged by such functions as the banquet tendered by the Yale A. A. to President Ahgell and Dean Mendell of Yale. Harvard, too, has sponsored such get-to-gethers. I understand that persons attending the very swank Horse Show now in action at the Garden In tuxedoes run a.

very serious risk of being handed a broom. Theres a theory afioat that small back naturally gets better Interference than a big carrier. According to some sporting psychologists, linesmen instinctively and unconsciously rally in front of a small teammate to protect him from harm. If this be true, the impuiS6 to protest must be especially strong when the small back is also the teams hero and fighting symbol. All of which would go a long way towards explaining why the Yale team pulls itself together so finely as soon as Albie Booth enters the lineup.

Until further notice all members of the South Carolina football team will sleep with a football, will carry one with them to all their classes, and will hold one on their laps while eating. This Is the brilliant idea of Coach Billy Laval, who hopes by this stunt to cure his charges tendency to fumble. Florida doesnt expect to be caught flat-footed by the Northern climate this For the game up here, and for that game alone, the Florida players have equipped themselves with a set of woolen jerseys to replace the cotton ones which they use down South. If anyone knows a quick way of dyeing, white flannel Into a burnt orange color, please communicate with Joe Dube, Harvards clothing Impresario. Joes desperate situation has been caused by the decision of the Florida management to change all the numbers of its players after the official Harvard program had gone to press.

Frank Ryan was seized with hysterics at the news and wired Florida to have a heart. Florida wired back that it was too late to do anything about it, the jerseys with the changed numbers already being on the way North. Whereupon Byan secured permission to change back all the numbers, provided he would use a burnt orange color for the numerals. But Dube has been able to get only white numbers, and now Is faced with the task of be coming a dyer. The problem, it may added, has caused a metabolism which is changing Joes hair into something very closely resembling white.

Accompanying the Gators will be their president. Dr John Tigert, formerly United States Commissioner for Education. Charlie Bachman, the Florida coach, is a former Notre Dame star, and his outfit uses most of ths South Bend stuff. Before appointment at Gainesville, Bachman coached the Kansas Aggies, being the predecessor there of Bo McMillan. Many people remember the opening part of toe last Harvard-Florida game in 1922 vividly.

Winnie 'Churchill on that occasion ran back the opening kick-off for 88 yards and a touchdown. In fact. Harvard scored two touchdowns before Florida had possession of the ball. After the first touchdown, Florida chose to receive, fumbled toe kick-off, and Harvard rammed over another score, pronto. Crimson finally won, 24 to 0.

The custom had an unfavorable reception among Stagga rival coaches. They believed that such a meeting might soften up their rivalry on the field, or at least they would take no chances of developing too much friendliness among the rival squads. Another attempt to continue toe custom when Cornell visited Chicago in 1911 met with a surpristig failure. It was discovered that toe Cornell players were represented by substitute while they dined privately. Some 20 years ago Harvard for one season only introduced its players to visiting teams, man by man, each player shaking hands with toe man who was to play opposite him.

Just before the teams took the field. CLOTHES: THAT He. TUFTS CENTER GREAT ASSET MEDFORD, Oct 31 Gene Tobey, the famous fighting parson center of Tufts football, will.be toe only starter for Tufts against Boston University who started in the last game between ths two Institutions two years ago. Gene Is also toe only first string member of Tufts undefeated team of that year who' Is now playing for toe Brown and Blue outfit. Capt Rach-dorf also made his letter that year, but was unable to break into toe reg ular line.

Tobey was one of the stars of that victory, which was one of toe hardest fought that toe Jumbos had that year. Tufts won the game, 96, the margin of victory being a field coal from toe toe of Jim Fitzgerald, after a touchdown by Fish Ellis had tied toe score. Boston University was one of the two teams to score on the Jumbos that year. At that time Tobey received great publicity as toe lightest man on toe team, and because he was more than keeping up with the 200-pound Brehaut in the fight for the pivot position. Last year Tobey was displaced by during toe greater part of toe year because weight in toe line wan at a premium.

This year Gene is back again and playing a beautiful game. Tobey seldom plays in the line on defense. His speed and agility make him a great defender against toe forward passing game, and Tufts success in stopping toe Connecticut Aggie aerial attack is due In no small part to Tobeys defensive work. He Is one of toe hardest tacklers on the Tufts squad, and when he hits a man, that person Is likely to stay hit. Offensively his passing is close to perfect, and Tufts backs may place their usual freedom from fumbling to his accuracy.

His remarkable speed Is shown by toe fact that he is down the field with toe ends, and sometimes ahead, of them, and makes half toe tackles on punts. Gene is a great pep artist. He yells and shouts all the time during practice, cheers on toe efforts of his teammates and tries to instill his own pepper into toe outfit. His voice can be heard in every practice session, exhorting and demanding a little bit of toe old ginger. Tobey also gains considerable attention from toe fact that he Is toe only student in the Theological School who has tried out for football in toe last three years at least.

Gene carries his Christian principles on to toe field of play, and is never guilty of any dirty work, although he plays toe hardest game that any 160-pound center could be expected to play. He will meet a great test against the Pioneers this week-end, when he stacks up against Jimmy Dincolo, who is probably toe best player in toe B. U. line. The former Medford star may not be at home at center on toe offense, but when Tufts is on toe offensive Tobey will have a tartar on his hands.

KILL MEETS TOUGH OHE IK BEHKERT The most Important match of the local wrestling season to date will he decided tonight when Pat McGill, Irish heavyweight star, meets August Benkert, Belgian' champion, in a two-falls-out-of-toree finish-match at toe Grand Opera McGill has been going alpng on a winning splurge since the season started. He battered down Jack.Gan-son, Freddy Meyers and John Grando-vkh In quick succession. His airplane whirl, one of toe most spectacular holds in toe game, has been crashing all opposition to toe canvas, and his victories have been scored in such impressive fashion that McGill, always a favorite here, is now toe biggest drawing card in New England. Ganson, Meyers and Grandovlch, however, are not In a class with Benkert. The big Belgian, who arrived in this country four weeks a gq with Rene DeVos, Belgian middleweight boxing star, is rated as the greatest wrestler ever produced in Belgium.

He has won every principal tournament staged in Europe, and has corns to Boston solely to force Dynamite Gua Sonnenberg into a match for toe heavyweight championship of -toe world. Benkert worked out at Kelley A Hayes Gym yesterday. Weighing 212 pounds, he electrified the rail-birds with his speed and power, and on the strength of his showing and his easy confidence he is an even money choice to stop McGills long Tun of victories. Bob (Bibber) McCoy, Cambridge favorite, will return to a local ring, meeting John Grandovlch In the semifinal finish match. McCoy has Improved immeasurably since last year in every department of the sport, and seems on his way to the top.

In toe opening match Henri Dlglane, French cham- Elon, will tackle toe veteran Carl mle of South Boston. favor. And it would not be well for Boston College to hold Duke cheaply. The teams have met twice and each has a victory to its credit. While Duke has not made a very Impressive showing, Boston College will not have, Warren McGulrk in Its forward line tearing things up as he did on Columbus Day afternoon year ago.

For after last years game DeHart, who knows a real player when he sees one, spoke glowingly of the feats of McGuirk. PIONEERS POINTING FOR TUFTS GAME SATURDAY Boston University and Tufts after an absence of a year will meet at Tufts Oval, Medford, on Saturday. The Pioneers were beaten by Springfield last Saturday, and the Jumbos suffered a setback in their game with New Hampshire. These both, in a measure, were expected. The Pioneers have been pointing for Arthur Sampsons proteges from toe start of the season.

Although they have been handicapped by injuries. Coaches Reggie Brown and Ed Robinson have been striving to bring out the latent power of toe men. Sampson, too, has been going along well, as the New Hampshire game has been forgotten and toe rotund Medford mentor has begun on new tack, with future opponents as objectives. i- MflfRELY ON FORWARDS Laterals, Too, Probable in Tufts Game When Boston Universitys varsity won from the freshmen by two touchdowns yesterday in a 40-minute scrimmage at Nickerson Field, Riverside, not a single forward pass play was used. Yet it is almost with accurate aerial manipulators, such as Crab Walke and Cy Perkins, and splendid wing men, such as Ernie Tutten and Jack that toe trio of B.

IT. mentors, Reggie Brown, Ed Robinson and 'Hilary Mahaney, will avail themselves of toe forward pass for toe contest with Tufts Saturday. Not only will forward passes be used, but it Is expected that toe lateral pass, which was 'tried but not used effectively against Springfield last week, will be attempted against the Sampson eleven, which has dropped hut three football games since the start of toe 1928 season, having been beaten by Brown and Butler last Fall and by New Hampshire last Saturday. The contest between Boston University and Tufts Is always a battle, although Coach Reggie Brown departed from his, scouting policies this sea-eon. In other years the Pioneer head coach has scouted Tufts thoroughly.

As a result, in toe two games played, Boston University won one game, 16 to 7, while in the other, gave an undefeated aggregation the battle of Its life. Tufts, with its galaxy of stars, won, 9 to 6. Coach Brown was asked last Saturday at Springfield how he happened to be present with toe team, in view of Tufts meeting New Hampshire, a logical contest to be scouted. But the ex-Brown and Harvard chief strategist and scout waved toe remark aside with Well, we must beat Spring-field. Then we might be able to take Tufts.

But the Springfield game was not taken, and Tufts is a heavy favorite over the Pioneers. Yet it is pretty generally known that the triumvirate of Brown, Robinson and Mahaney are not journeying to Medford Saturday without some sort of a plan up their sleeve. CARL ETELMAN TO PLAY FOR FITTONS The Flttons of East Boston will be greatly strengthened Sunday when they play toe Quincy Wanderers at Fort Banks, Wlnthrop, by the acquisition of Caul Etelman, former Tufts College, St Alphonsus and Boston Bull-dag quarterback. He and A1 Weston should give the fans a thrill at Braves Field on Sunday, Nov 24, when the Flttons and Pere Marquette team clash in their annual game. The starting lineup of the Flttons Sunday will be Rose and Hafferiy, ends; Fitzgerald and Lindner, tackles; and guards Irwin, center; Etelman, qb; Yarnell, thb; Sayles, rhbj Fay or Kennedy, tt, Ths gams will start at 2:30, Granular, Rice Backs With a Punch Ytoo are toe hardest-driving back! in football this season? It Is impossible this early to round up the entire list, but there slt several worthy ot mention.

Three of the best are Parkinson of Pittsburg, Fleishhacker of Stanford and Mullins of Notre Dame. Sloane of Nebraska is another, and eo Is Myers of N. Y. although he has not been tested by any outstanding opposition. He hasnt been called on to make his way through a Notre Dame or a Stanford or a- Pittsburg line, Murrel of the Army Is good, and eo la Karels of Carnegie Tech.

Farkln-on, Fleishhacker and Mullins make up one of toe great line slashing trios of toe game. They start fast and they can hit hard, and they can keep going after being tackled. Wittmet of Prince-ton la another hard-driving hack. He hasnt had the line this season to help him out. Few backs are good enough to pick up much ground through aa outplayed line.

The Navy will find Master of Pennsylvania ona of toe best all-round backs of tha year. Here is a young football player who can kick, pass, hit a line, run an end, receive passes and handle punts. He can do about as many things well as any newcomer any season has shown In a long time. Certainly there are few who can equal him at toe kicking game punting drop kicking and handling punts, which covers all the ground togre is where tha shoe is concerned. Tha Yala team, having faced Georgia, Brown and Army, with Dartmouth just ahead, is beginning to wonder when the rest period Is coming.

And before long there are Princeton and Harvard to look after which Is something of a schedule, with no great quantity of reserves to call on.

SONNENBERG TOSSES CANT0NWINE TWICE PORTLAND, Or, Oct 31 (A. Sonnenberg, heavyweight wrestled last night defeated Howard Canton-wine, Iowa grappler. He won tw straight falls, the first in 38 minute, 30 seconds, and the seeond in less than a minute, using flying tackle to pl3 hla opponent hot times, DARTMOUTH WILL BE WATCHING ALBIE BOOTH It is believed Yale has been putting much stress on toe use of toe forward which may be used against Dartmouth. This same kind of news emanated from New Haven a few days before the Army entered toe Bowl, yet little of toe aerial game was employed by toe Blue when it drove toe soldiers back to their West Point barracks by storming toe Army front so effectively. Yale may surprise toe Green by not calling on toe air attack as a means toward its objective.

It would seem that with toe success it had in rushing toe ball in toe Army game, with Albie Booth doing most of toe carrying, it will give these tactics another whirl. Booth will be toe man toe Hanoverians will watch. He is one of those players who can battle his way, along successfully when his path is blocked. He does this despite toe fact that he is one of the lightest backfield men who has ever sported toe blue colors. It is not expected Yale will use much different attack from that It adopted to beat West Point.

Its movement may be smoother and better conceived. Football teams seldom, if ever, completely change their style of play in midseason. Yale for years has had one man in its backfield to do toe bulk of toe carrying. Often it has been thought the method has been taxing on toe individual player. Bruce Cald well.

Jack Garvey and Bill Hammers-ley were players of toe last-few years who did the things Booth has Deen doing lately. But Booth fills toe bill probably to greater advantage, as was exhibited by the New Haven townie against toe Army. DARTM0UTHSSTRENGTH IN ITS REPLACEMENTS As for Dartmouth, despite all toe talk about it not having shown its best cards in gaining success over its early season opponents, Columbia and Harvard, there is not expected to be any greater variety in its play than already exhibited. Marsters, the Arlington speedster, will be toe Greens ace, just as he was in his sophomore year and has been thus far this season. But where Dartmouth Is figured to he stronger than for some years is in the high-class replace ments Coach Cannell and his staff have developed.

The Hanoverians have well equipped substitutes, who, like Booth, are only considered in that light because of not being in the starting lineup. Along toe front line, the second stringers have nearly as much power, speed and possess every bit as muo haggresslve ness as the starting men. In toe backfield toe Green has a speedy lot of men, players who are capable of maintaining toe fast pace set by Marsters and his mates. There is Wild Bill McCall, a remarkable runner with toe ball, and last Saturday the crowd of nearly 60,000 who watched toe change in toe backfield saw him race through toe Crimson horde. He may be toe big man at New Haven.

His home is Muskegon, Mich, and he is one of toe very few men from outside of New England who has made an Impressive showing at Hanover this season. But when all is said and done, the game will show whether Marsters or Booth Is the outstanding players. Marsters showed himself to be superior to Ralph Hewitt of Columbia two weeks ago, and last follow lng Red Cagle of toe Army into the Stadium by a week, he tore things asunder. Harvards followers had a chance to compare Special Delivery and Cagle. Marsters performance generally was accepted as excelling what Cagle had shown.

As the Harvard stands were looking on at the amazing feats Of Marsters, down in toe Bowl, little Booth was giving a far better demonstration of ball carrying than the great Cagle. Booths performance was so magnificent. It far eclipsed the Army captains. Booth vs Marsters is the big attraction, but Dartmouth would not care much if even toe sophomore did outshine Marster, If it could register its first football victory over Yale. Individual work means little where team play is concerned.

B. C. CANNOT AFFORD, TO HOLD DUKE CHEAPLY When a coach does not have a winning team, toe cry goes up for the coachs head. That is how Jimmy DeHart, coach 'of Duke University team, which collides with Boston College at Fenway Park, stands at Durham, C. DeHart has done much for the Blue Devil.

He has lifted them tc a place of prominence, and ho will out to make a new start against toe Eagles. DeHart, in the past, has corns north from the cigarette country with high powered machines. Maybe toe, aggregation he will bring to Boston tomorrow will rise to the realization that It is a good team. Duke has gone up against some fast company Pittsburg, Navy and Villa-nova. It has been able to ecore a touchdown or two against these classy opponents something in its The gentlemens agreement between New York University and Georgia barring Dave Myers, stellar quarterback, from the Violet lineup for this particular game, has caused a stir which has not yet subsided.

Without fully entering the discussion, it may safely be said that football in some respects isnt as great a force as its most rabid supporters claim. Those who' argue In favor of bigger and better interscholastic battles have never tired of pointing out how such games bring about a mutual understanding of various sectional points of view. But even football, it seems, is not potent enough to transcend the color line. Its platitudinous to say so, of course, but the good or evil to be derived from intersectional and international athletic competition depends entirely upon the behavior of those promoting and taking part In such affairs. Admitting that international relations have ordinarily been improved by athletic meetings, there have been exceptions.

If sports conducted on a high plane can cement the friendship of Nations, they can equally well, if poorly condcted, cause a rift. Anglo-jpanco relations have not usually been bettered as the result of rugged meetings, where the officials have needed police protection from the mob. There have been several tense moments during Olympic competition, and even golf and tennis tilts between rival countries sometimes have left a sour taste. What applies to international meetings, on a somewhat smaller scale, also applies to Interscholastic meetings. Local pride, like patriotism, sometimes contains combustible material which consumes high-flown ideas of sportsmanship to leave nothing but the smudgy ashes of an idea to win at any price.

No football game of an intersectional nature has probably done more good than Yale's Invasion of Georgia. The Elis were treated royally and were worthy of the treatment they received. They lost with good grace after doing their best against an inspired Southern team. Furthermore, Yale did the handsome thing in transferring the game to Georgia after it had been scheduled for New Haven, and made the trip on a purely cost basis. No guarantee was set before the game.

When the players got back bom, Yale simply let Georgia know what the bare expenses had been, and there was no argument anywhere along the line. Of course Harvard couldnt accept Dartmouths offer to pay for the Stadium goal posts. Nor, for that matter, has Harvard even the hope of sometime getting even. Harvard -never plays at Hanover, so that the best the Crimson can hope for is not to lo3e its own posts to a Dartmouth undergraduate body. Thats one disadvantage of playing almost all your games at home it doesnt give you much of a chance at souvenir hunting.

A hound for statistics has unearthed the fact that the 30,000 girls who attended the Yale-Army game last Saturday as the guests of Yale undergraduates and graduates, cost their escorts 51,273,000. Whos to say that the money was misspent? Well, lets cot go into that. It seera3 incongruous to see advertisements in New York papers offering Harvard -Yale tickets through Tegular channels at regular prices. of course, is not as strong a Dartmouth town as Boston, but the Wah-Hoo-Wahs residing in New York are sure to snap up all pasteboards before game time. If they dont the fans in New Haven will, for Albie Booth is one of their boys.

The chief argument in schoolboy ports circles yesterday seems to have been whether Medford dropped Everett or Everett dropped Medford. It cant be said that the wrangling between these two high schools presents a very edifying spectacle. Athletic breaks, somehow, never do. A limited cumber of accommoda- PRINCETON REVIVES STAGGS CUSTOM PRINCETON. Oct 31 (A.

In playing hoet to toe Chicago squad at dinner tomorrow night, Princetons football team will revive a custom Inaugurated by Its guest more than 20 years sgo. Amos Alonzo Stagg, veteran Chicago coach, introduced the idea of having Saturday's football rivals meet for a Friday night dinner into Western Conference circles Lack Jn 3906, Tough Times Ahead Under toe pressure of modern football a Saturdays rest where most of toe regulars can take life easy makes or may make a large and boisterous difference. Teams up against it are those with few reserves who have to tackle three or four rugged opponents In order, with no chance to ease up. Football is full of such Instances now. There was a day when toe first hard game came around November.

Aa it la now, any number of teams have already bumped Into heavy opposition more than once, or twice, with no rest this week-end. Take a look at just a few: Notre Dame has met Indiana, Navy, Wisconsin and Carnegie Tech with Georgia Tech to come tola week. Yale has faced Georgia, Brown and Army with Dartmouth to follow Saturday. After meeting Army and Dartmouth, Harvard takes on Florida for another stiff argument. Princeton has had Brown, Cornell and Navy, with Chicago Just ahead.

Ohio State has met Iowa, Michigan and Indiana, with Pittsburg waiting. Dan McGugins Vanderbilt team will be called on to meet Alabama, Georgia Tech and Tennessee, three of the strongest teams in the South or anywhere else. The Navy team has already moved against Notre Dame and Princeton, and now it faces Pennsylvania. Georgia Tech has had its share of trouble laid out with North Carolina, Florida, Tulane, Notre Dame and Vanderbilt all bunched. These are just a few leading examples.

It takes either luck in toe way of Injuries or a flock of reserves to face three or four hard ones in a row. Those teams that dont have the luck or -toe reserves make up most of the upsets you hear about. Football is full of luck and the old dope that toe best team always wins Is replete with bunk. Or one might say. toe better team, If one happens to prefer better English or grammar or what not.
