New York City has been turned over for the day to the cadet?, and
midshipmen of the Army and the Navy and their supporters. At least
they have taken possession of the metropolis and everybody is glad to see
them here. For the Army?-Navy football game is more than a great
football classic. It is a grand reunion when people from all over the
country get together for a rousing reception, when football coaches and
players by the hundreds fleck in to exchange pleasantries, opinions, and,
incidentally, to take a day off watching a football struggle.
As for the contest itself, it always;
has been a battle royal, the kind that ]
thrills with its spicy and ?rueling
play, and, needless to say.this after?
noon's issue at the Polo Grounds will
oe no exception. In fact, with b-ith
institutions represente?! by better
?tlevens than they had last year and
with each player on edge for the fray,
this game promises to be as lively and
?s faot as has ever been w. jetl be?
tween the two academies.
Picking the winner of this tussle is
about as os simple a task as forecast?
ing the victor between a pair of
battling wildcats. Like every football
contest between two rivals of long?
standing, past performancia count for
naught when they clash. Only by a
comparison of individuals is it possible
CO get a line on the probable winner,
and even this system is of little value
in such a big game, for oftimes one mah
will piny far beyond any form he has
shown in previous contests, vhile an?
other will fail to come up to expecta?
tion?.
Both trio Army and Navy teams had
? shot'., work-out on the Polo Grounds
yesterday afternoon, the Navy using
the field first. All of the players of
each eleven are in fine physical condi?
tion.
Charlie Paly, the Army coach, and
Bob Folwell, of the Navy, were rather
reticent concerning the eintest. Daly
said his players were prepared for a
hard fight and liad been drilled to play
:i tough struggle. Folwell also stated
his mer. were in irood condition and
prepared to give the Cadets the battle
of their t areers.
Odds Favor Midshipmen
Th.s oi'.ds la. t night were slightly in
favor of the Navy. This, too, means
nothing. In fact, anybody subject, to
superstition a? i accustomed to playing
hunches would probably put his money
.jn the Army, r.s often the favorite
falls by the wayside on the gridiron.
In favoring the Navy one. of course,
can advance the argument it has
played the harder schedule and is
therefore better fitted for h tough
light than its rival. The Cadets, on
(he other hand, have a fine record be?
hind them, with but one defeat on the
list, that by Notre Dame, conceded to
be about the best eleven in the country
this season.
We were talking with a couple of
army officers yesterday, former foot?
ball sars, one of whom had ben se
ected ' :? mosl critics far tac All

Notre Paar" i the best team in th:

majority of football combinations art
constructed of a few -stars, padded bj
mediocre material. Not so witl
Notre Dame. It has eleven fellow:
who are athletes and wl o know how t<
bar..i on a
We did mighty well against that oui
fit, I think, and our showing in tha
struggle has given us considerabl
hope for to-day."
Naval Officers Optimistic
In the Navy camp, or headquarters, |
at the Hotel Commodore, there is more
optimism concerning the outcome of
the game than there is at the Astor,
where the Arm:.' is quartered; that is.
? among the Naval Academy graduates.
They are quite secure in the belief
? heir eleven will triumph. But among
the array officers there is a fi rung of
iiuitt detern ?nation which indicates
tnat they expect their understudies
will surprise a few folk?.
Here ar<- the records of the two
teams to date:

freshmen last fall, is improving by '
leaps and bounds and is expected to
do well to-day. The Middies have an j
exceptionally ??rood center in Larsen, j
a good tackier in King and a line <?uard ,
own with. Willkie.
Greene, although he may not be the j
equal of Larsen, is, nevertheless, effi- |
cient and clever und a mighty good i
all-'rotind performer, excelling in pass?
ing. Br'edster is expected to hold his |
owi with Willkie,
If the day is clear and the field is
dry the Army will have benefited, for'
?he Middies will then have their hands
full trying to stop little French, who;
?tarred at Rutgers last year. This fel- ?
low ha? long been a top-notch back, ?
but it is only recently he has received,
due recognition. To our mind, he comes j
very close to being the equal of Davies,
of Pittsburgh, and Way, of Penn State. |
and, with the exception of Gipp, of
Notre Dame, there aren't any better,
in the game this season.
A lot will depend on the quarter
lack play in determining to-day's
winner. 'We do not .believe, either side
possesses any such advantage iver its;
opponent that it can -tfford to waste :
any power, and the pilot who hangs ?
or? to his gains and makes them count
for all they are worth, instead of |
trying for -touchdowns at a single ?
crack", is the man who is going to
lead his team to victory. There have,
been so few quarterbacks ibis fall ?
who have got the most out of their,
gains we are beginning to think that j
real quarterback play is a lo3t art.
There are two other games on the '
schedule to-day which t.re attracting
widespread interest. These ara the !
Dartmouth-Washington tussle at Seat-.
tie and the Iioston College-George- |
town meeting' at Boston. Unless the
long trip to the Coast fatigues them,
the Hanover boys should have no dif
l'.culty in defeating Washington, which
in opening a new stadium to-day.
Boston College, which liait a fine,
well-drilled combination, and which \
?3 undefeated to date, will encounter
stiff opposition from Georgetown, If
Bay Staiers capture this contest
and win irom Holy Cros3 next week,!
they will have earned a high ranking
in the football world for 1920,

special Correspondence of 1 lie Tribun?
ANNAPOLIS, Nov. 26.?Interest is
intense among the midshipmen and
other naval people over the trip to New
York to-morrow and the game against
the military academy at the Polo
grounds. The Army stands one game
ahead on the score, and it is believed
here the Navy will make it even- to- ;
morrow.
Though one of the hardest and best
games in the series is expected, it is
said that the Navy has the better line
and also a better balanced backfield,
even though it lacks a real star like ;
French, of the Army.
The regiment of midshipmen will
fall in at the academy to-morrow at
4:46, and will leave by four trains at
intervals from f>:15 to 5:30.
Commander Georg?- IL Bowdey will ?
command the regiment, and too nat- :
ta.ions will be commanded by Lieu?
tenant. Commanders K.ng, Davidson,
Hein ami Brown. At the Polo Grounds ,
tha Regiment will be turne?! over to ;
the midshipmen officers. Midshipman !
E. .1. Poole, the regiment's commander,
is on the football squad, so the com?
mand will devolve upon Midshipman .
Apollo Sousex, of Oklahoma. He is
commander of the 1st Battalion.
After the game the midshipmen will
bo given liberty until 9:80 Sunday
morning. Most of them will stop at
the Hotel Commodore. The.v will leave
New York about Id o'clock Sunday
morning, ?.rriving in Annapolis before

Western Drama
The West collected about 90 per cent of football's annual drama this j
fall, with Ohio State leading tho parade.
In fact, there has been nothing like the drama of the Conference j
champion-hip in all football history. *
Games were won as tima was up with the ball in midair on the last :
pass of the day, or with eight or ten seconds left in which to secure the !
needed points.
The East had little of this sort to offer, one of the few exceptions j
being the Harjfard-Princeton game.
On a general average the West made better use of the forward pass !
than the East did, mainly because the West took up the passing gaaje
years ago, when most, of the leading Eastern universities still regarded
this art in the nature of being an oWonj- joke.
Lost Arguments
We recall many years ago the number of fervid argumenta we lost
to Eastern experts when we insisted that the forward pass, properly
developed with skillful passers, skillful receivers and a certain amount!
of deception, was a bi? part of the modern offense.
We were told then that any good, standard defence could make any j
passing defense game look ridiculous.
The only ridiculous part of this being the statement.
A standard defense cu.11 block the passing game, but the running1
game will then have a chance to raise merryel.
It's the combination that makes a first class modern attack, in which,
for all around efficiency, Notre Dame should be. placed no lower than
the top.
Asking a Why?
Why was it that Aldrich, one of the best Yale backs in years, was
only a substitute last season and was finally tossed in the last few minutes
| of pray in the 191fJ Harvard-Vale game?
Why was it that Humphrey, who for ail around value looked to be the
i best man on the Harvard team, had a hard time breaking into Harvard's
j two big games?
In the meanwhile the Master Minds of Crookedness who furnished the
hank, roll that corrupted the White Sox are still as much unknown as
| ever. Are they going to get away with it? Very likely.
In the meanwhile, again, two alert observers have written us that
| the Virginia Military Institute machine is the strongest they have seen
| this year. And that Jimmy Leach is the best back they have seen this
j year. V. M. 1. was tho first eleven to overwhelm Pennsylvania before
j Penn's morale was dented in several vulnerable spots.
_
Critics keep on shooting comparative scores at us to prove their points.
Here's one answer: Yale, 24; West Virginia, 0; Princeton, 10; West Vir
! ginia, 3; Princeton, 20; Yale, 0. Where does this let you oft"?' ?
i _
Harvard at least wins the admittance championship. In its' four
?main games?Centre, Princeton, Brown and Yale?the Crimson played
i to 193,000 spectators, an average of over 43,000 to the game. If this
isn't a football record, piense cable a correction at your own expense.
"I keep reading," writes a Harvard man, "where Yale won a moral
I victory last Saturday, Well, Yale can win moral victories of this ?ort
for the next forty years so far as Harvard cares." Which about sizes up
j the situation. We could never see much of tin.-; "moral victory" stuff in
? 0 big game, where you arc cleaned out by a 0-0 margin.
You might say that American League pitchers won fifty-four more
victories over "Habe" Ruth last season by the same process of deduction.

At a meeting of the Fordham Uni?

afternoon, Sylvester T. Fitzpatrick
was reflected captain of the Maroon
lleven for next season. He plwed left
end for the Bronx collegiani this fall
ami in 1917. Fitzpatrick is a junior in
tho law department of the university,
and resides in New York City.
Tho newly elected captain played a
sensational game at left end tor the
Maroon team this year. He was par?
ticularly adept at receiving forward
passes. Besides holding up his end
at receiving passes Fitzpatrick can
throw them with equal facility. He
frequently was ca'led upon to drop
back into the backfield this season to
heave a pass, carry the ball or to
punt.
Fitzpatrick is also a member of the
Maroon track team.

Reekie Defeats
Dunphy in Close I
Game on Links!
Upper Montclair Champion I
Will Meet Kendall in j
Semi-Final Round To-day!
Special C orre s por. aen cc of The Tribune
LAKEWOOD, N. J., Nov. 20? Will- j
iam Reekie, Upper Montclair (N. J. >
champion, will meet Pery Kenda'l, j
Denl, and Gardiner White, Nassau Club
title holder, is to oppose Fred Knight,
Whitemarsh to-morrow, in the semi?
final of the Lakewood Country Club's
open golf tournament. This afternoon
Ke?vir heat C. J. Dunphy, Woodland
Club, Boston, 1 up. Dunphy yester?
day tied with Knight for low ?core at
81. They will play off to-morrow.
Dunphy was tw ce 2 up and three
times they drew even, the second time
at the turn. Each tallied two 6s on the
first half, halving the fourth in that
figure. Dunphy. also rolled up 6s on
the thirteenth and fourteenth, but
Reekie offset it with a string of 5s.
On the fi teenth Dunphy so raised a
divot a3 to interfere with passage of
his ball and an animated discussion
arose as to the rules.
Everything turned upon the clause
which says tliere must he no pressure
upon the club in sweeping away mov
uble impediments. The divot was loose
at one end hut remained attached to
the sod at the other. Accordingly the
hole was declared halved. The next
two were also halved Reekie's fine
second gave him the home green also
and he won although needing two putts.
Each tallied 8.
The Kniglit-Wooten match, between
Philadelphia district players, which
Knight won by 5 and 4, was adjudged
next important. The features were
the three birdies in succession, made
by Knight nt the sixth, seventh an.!
eiprhth holes, which gave hi-a a lead
of four holes, a sprint that brought
him to the turn in 36, only one above
par, n remarkable snowing so late
in the season. On all three holes
T-'nicht was down at above six feet
distance.
U hite beat Betram, Wykagyl, whom
he naturally outclassed, by -i and ~,
after being*3 up at the turn.
Percy Kendall, Deal, bent II. C.
Richard, Lido, 6 and 5, Richard was
weak on the outward journey, holding
his own from the turn. None of the
first rounds in the first division con?
ic-:-' proved very clos??, except that
at nineteen holes, in which Riciiard
beat W. M. Griffith, of Buffalo. Richard
sank a fifteen foot putt downhill
when he was merely playing for
safety.
