and to-day’s audience will be no ex
ception.
Confidence pervades both camps. Thi
navy wlil be without the services ol
Its captain and leader, Mtdshlpmar
King, who Is suffering from typhoid
fever. King will be missed, for he wai

been found to take his place in Doug

called on to play the position durlni
the game.
Army's defense, which could not b<
i broken down either by Tale or Har
I vard, may be slightly mors compact
■ but the navy cadets point to their deal
slate as proof that they, too, have a
line that will be as a stone wall. Bott
elevens have shown a reaaonablj
strong and varied attack at times, bvr
the army may be able to claim the ad
vantage in Dean's punting and Its
powerful, speedy back field.
Armr and nan have clayed four
