Stationers, Printers, Binders Office Outfitters tPRESS PASSES To Face Yale Bulldog By BUD BENJAMIN r EDITOR'S NOTE: I arranged an exchange column with George Chittenden, sports editor of the Yale News, today, and here's what he has to say about the Bulldog and their football fortunes. Speaking Of Eli .,.. By GEORGE 1H. CHITTENDEN THE 1938 EDITION of the Yale football team brings a new problem to th Blue coaches. For the past four years or so men like Larry Kelley and Clint Frank have graced the .Yale gridiron with their All-American tactic and propensities toward winning games single handed. This year Head Coach Ducky Pond has no such paragons around whom to build his team. His line material is stronger than last year's, but the backfield material i limited, and there are no outstanding stars. The first part of the schedule was disastrous. The team was prematurely routed out of its training quarters at Gales Ferry by the hurricane that Sswept New England. Having lost a few days of precious practice after making a late start anyway, the Blue went in against Columbia totally un- prepared for what was in store for them. Columbia's Sid Luckman ran and passed circles around the green Elis, to build up a score of 27-14 against them. The Yale end and tackles were consistently being pushed out of the plays, and the backs could not shake loose. Yale's scores came on a blocked kick which Bill Jchn picked up and carried over. Bud Humphrey passed tt fast Al Wilson for the other. Al covered some fifty yards for the score. Against Penn the following Saturday Yale was still comparatively impotent. The Quakers took it at a walk for a 21-0 victory. Yale had but ene real chance to score and muffed that. Peiins Frank Reagan was the outstanding star of the game, szoring one and paving the way for the other. Yale was improved slightly, but still could not put together an effective offense. Against Navy last Saturday, the first half had all the earmarks of another futile day for Yale. Navy did everything better, with the exception of Johnny Miller's great kicking for Yale. But the Bulldogs came back after the half with a new spark and one of the fanciest passing attacks seen in the Bowl for many years. Bud Humphrey proved to be the unisputed hero of the day when his passing to Buck Dyess and Johnny Miller brought the ball to within scoring distance again and again. His short pass to Bill Snavely gave Yale their first score, but when the etra point effort..failed' the score was still 7-6 against them. Another field length drive left Humphrey seven yards out and right in front of the goal posts. With Al Wilson holding the ball he kicked for the three points that were enough to win the ball game. A mere summary of the scoring is hardly enough to picture the indomnitable spirit that carried the Elis above repeated disheartening breaks and won the game for them. The spirit that Yale finally got halfway through their tird game is essentially the same thing that has won many a game for them in the past when they seemed to be the underdog in every way. It also makes them nobody's pushover for the rest of the season. Michigan comes to New Haven with more weight and power and consequently the favored team. But there will be fireworks before that afternoon is over. The Yale lineup as it faced Navy last week, and as it will probably be against Michigan, had nine Seniors, one Junior and one Soph'omore. Bill Starbuck and Cape Burnam, tackle and guard respectively, were the two lower classmen. Buck Dyes and Bill Moody are the Senior ends. Neither is' particularly tall, but they make up for that with their pass-catching abilities. Big Bill John, 220-pounder, pairs up with Starbuck at tackle. He has not made many mistakes during his three year career with the Blue. Charlie Miller is the veteran left guard. The fact that he has played a good part of every game for the past three years is evidence of his steady ability. Captain Bill Platt plays either tackle or center, and both capably. He will probably start at center this week as he did against Navy. The backfield features four more Seniors. Bud Humphrey, as quarterback and passer, comes as near being a star as any one on the team. His signal calling has been beyond reproach, and according to the ends, who should know what they are talking about, he throws more accurately than i elry 5 Clint Frank.

State To Abandon Its 'T' Formation I EAST LANSING, Oct. 1.-(Pm)- Coach Charley Bachman today con- firmed the suspicions of observers that the Michigan State Colege foot-1 ball team has abandoned, at least temporarily, the Notre Dame back- field shift. Insted of lining up in the usual "T" formation and then skipping to af "Z" lineup in the backfield, the play- ers will now take up the latter position immediately and put the ball in play. "It worked against West Virginia," Bachman said, "and I can't see any reason why it won't do for the rest of the season." Bachman indicated the original purpose , of the shift: to keep the opponent guessing where the weight of the attack was to be thrown and the rhythm obtained in the lock-step skip no longer was necessary. Preparing rapidly to meet Syra- cuse's mighty array here Saturday, the coaching staff found its greatest problem that of plugging the hole left by Gene Ciolek's injury. In recent drills, Art Harris, of Walled Lake, and Casey Klewicki of Hamtramck, have been getting the most attention. Jerry Drake, a rising young pass and punt artist, is still nursing an injured arm received against West Virginia. being hailed as the halfback to carry on the tradition of Lund and Al- phonse. Alhough a senior, Moore had to wait until this year to get the ballyhoo. Andy Uram stole the show before. Michigan's Tom Harmon is already getting the headlines for his brilliant running although only a sophomore and guard Ralph Heikkinen, Wolver- ine veteran who for two years was ob- scured in the shadows of a losing team, is finally being mentioned in All-American circles, as is the bril- liant Archie Kodros at center. Go West, Young Man All of these boys will get their big chance next week when they will show their wares before eastern observers while the nation listens in over a na- tional radio hook-up. One of Har- mon's 50 yard runs then will be worth three in any other game as far as personal publicity is concerned. Going west, we find that Wadde Young, Oklahoma end, who stopped Ernie Lain, Rice backfield ace, is the man of the season in the Big Six. Oregon's two halfbacks, Jimmy Nich- olson and Jay Graybeal, are reported to be the classiest combination on the Pacific Coast and contenders for All- American mention.
