While Harvard and Princeton are battling in the Palmer Memorial Stadium 116-other games of greater of lesser importance will be played throughout the country. Of these games the Yale-Brown contest at New Haven will hold the strongest interest for Princeton and Cambridge. The Crimson and the Orange will both eagerly await its outcome and take it as an indication of what they may expect from the Bull Dog the next two Saturdays.

While Brown has been buffeted and bruised by four of the strongest elevens of the season, Yale, with the possible exception of Boston College, has met no formidable opponent. As a result the strength of the Yale team is at best problematical. Defenders of the Yale football attack and of the new coaching system of which Dr. Sharpe is the head, are unwilling to make any positive assertions and admit that the strength of the eleven cannot be estimated until the clash with Brown. Either the coaches are holding back some more effective scoring plays than they have disclosed, or else much remains to be done, before Princeton and Harvard are met, in giving the "big blue team" the essential drive.

Bule Reserves A-Plenty

Yale will have its entire squad on the field today with the exception of Thorne Murphy. For the first time in weeks the snapback position will be filled by Captain Tim Callahan. Kenneth Hammill, regarded as the best all round man on the Eli eleven, was out of the game during the first part of the week but is expected to be in the line-up. In the event of a rough game or a treacherous field Yale will have in her reserve force an advantage over the already crippled Bruins.

The coaches at Brown, however, have had a continuous struggle to develop second team men to take the place of crippled regulars. Although Brooks and Jemail, the star Bruin backfield pair, are now in fine condition, and it is expected that Brisk and Albright, who have shown exceptional speed on the wings, will be in the game today, Hovey is still on the doubtful list, his wrist having failed to heal as rapidly as was expected. Armstrong is suffering from a lame shoulder and must stay on the side-lines today.

Penn. Eleven Confronts Green

The Pennsylvania-Dartmouth clash at New York, will in the general sporting world attract almost as much attention as the Harvard Princeton game. Despite the results of last Saturday's games the Dartmouth and Pennsylvania elevens are generally regarded as two of the most powerful developed this fall.

During the week the Hanover eleven has been hard at work in preparation for today's game. Although Penn. State, defeated by Dartmouth, in turn beat Penn., comparative scores mean little, and Captain Cannel's men will not enter the contest overconfident.

The team came through its biggest test of the year unscathed and so is in the best of condition for Pennsylvania. Both university ends, Cogswell and Myers, upon whom great reliance is placed, are back in their old positions today.

With Dartmouth encouraged by its unexpected draw with Colgate, and Pennsylvania jolted out of its overconfidence, the contest bids fair to be one of the hardest fought staged this year.

Other Big Eastern Games.

As a preface to the annual late season classic, the Army and Navy games with Notre Dame and Georgetown respectively are attracting considerable interest. Both teams as yet have had no serious tests and the results of these contests will in a measure, indicate their strength.

Other games of interest to be played in the East are as follows: Amherst vs. Wesleyan at Amherst, Colgate vs. Rochester at Hamilton, Cornell vs. Carnegie Technology at Ithaca, Pennsylvania State vs. Lehigh at State College, and Williams vs. Middlebury at Williamstown.
