12 TfTI ksst RHFRTArnf^SPORTSfI -F Iff? POMONA AND U. S. C. READY FOR SOUTHERN CHAMPIONSHIP PLAY Teams Prepared for Final Meeting cf Schedule—Beth Stanton a^d Cromwell Confident—University Depends Largely on Stay ing Qualities of Line and Paulin's Kicking—lnterest in Yale-Harvard Battle Intense-Secret Prac tice Held at New Haven — Minnesota and Michigan Tuned for Game YALE AND HARVARD IN FINAL WORKOUTS NEW HAVEN, Conn., Not. 1". — Vale and Harvard elevens begun today put ting the finishing touches on their preparations for the football came at Yale Saturday. With a band playing Yale airs and students following, the grand march on the field where Saturday* game will bo played was made by the undergraduates of Yale till! afternoon. This conformed to a custom and allowed the students to Bee the scrub team break training. The varsity and scrub pin} ers danced around a bonfire and the castaway equip ment was burned as an offering: to the goddess of victory. Yalo confidence has risen with the close of active training. Many new plays have been successfully worked out in secret practice this week, and on these hopes are pinned for a victory. The Harvard squad, thirty-four strong, came down from Farmlngton this noon and after lunch at the Yale dining hall went to Yale field for signal practice and to get accustomed to the lights and shadows cast br the stands. The work was light, mostly kicking and the handling of punts. From present indications It was stated that Harvard back field probably would he Wlgglesworth at quarterback, Corbett at left hnlfback,. Ted Frothingham. at right halfback, with Leslie or Morrison at fullback. The Yale eleven took the field after the Cambridge men and ran through a long signal drill, the work being done behind closed gates. , Reports from the football ramps of Pomona and TT. S. C. are to the effect that the warriors who will compote in the Claremont battle for the championship of Southern California will be to great fettle for the game of their lives. New plays", a more thorough acquaintance with the code, better trained and withal a bettor rounded tram should give the rah-rahs an opportunity for witnessing the best gridiron mill of the season's con ference schedule. Stanton's men rested yesterday and will spend this afternoon in run ring over the signals and general practice work. Scrimmages were cut out of the program early in the week, but the men were not allowed to become soft through lack of strenuous drill and work on the new plays prepared for the reception of the Wesleyans has given the coach and his infants plenty of muscle limbering. Cromwell is prophesying a victory will come with the aid of Hal Paulin's kicking limb and declares the Blue and White will meet a dif ferent line In the Methodist school than they experienced in bucking through the Oxy Tigers last week. Cromwell is proud, and rightly so, of his line and promises a few surprises to the speed of the Pomona backs when they attempt any end runs or forward passes. U. S. C. has an eleven especially strong on the defensive and should be able to keep away the touchdown tallies at any rate. Whether Clary's field goal proclivities will bo brought into action iR another matter but Paulin is ready and willing to match his booting faculty with that of the Claremont sage brusher so that some pretty kicking duels should result. While the local fans are testing their throats at the rooting game and speculating on the results of the coming battle at Claremont, in the middle west and far east the gridiron is coming into the spotlight as the discussions of the merits of the Gophers, the Wolverines, the Bulldogs and the Crimson wax warmer. Tale and Harvard devoted yesterday to va rious additions to thoir gridiron toilet and the roaches expect to remove some more blemishes this afternoon. The loyal sons of Xli aro rallying to the support of their beloved eleven, now that a championship is In sight and Camp and Coy are delving night and day into the mysteries of the new rules, inventing new crptograms for the Crimson braves to solves, toiling over the forward pass, sparing no pains over the perfec tion of the tram which is to go in for old Yale Nor ;ire the Harvard supporters idle. Everything is being put aside to lend encouragement to the wearers of the big H. Rallies, prayers, in vocations from every throat, anything and everything which might have a favorable effect on the prospects of the crimson is brought into action and the game is on the mind of undergraduate, alumnus and faculty alike. And ng:iin at Michigan, where the Ann Arbor mighty ones under tho watchful eye of Hurry up Tost are going through thoir final evolution, there is a chaos of dopesters constructing wild schemes by which the Gopher representatives will again b<» given the short end of the score. While Yost is worrying over his hopefuls, 'Williams is coaxing his pig skin chasers through a round of new plays with which the Minnesota routers are positive the Wolverines can have no chance. And so it goes. Odds are even from coast to coast. Yale money is in sight when Harvard will take it at even but the 3311 supporters are not snatching at any other odds. Minnesota oven with Pickering out of it, has a scoring machine of great speed* and with McGovern in charge the bookmakers do not feel isafo in letting the money run either way. Po mona, is tin: favorite among the majority here l>ut even money is all that you can get in the betting line, A trio of groat games in v single day show.-; the American game has yet a few years to live.
