ARMY WAS
FOLWELL WILL SEND FIGHTING
NA VY TEAM AGAINST THE ARMY
IN HIS
fpiIR Army and Navy have a chance
metes this afternoon. Ktnlcmatcs is a terrible slangy
word which Is used In place of the recognized flfty-flfty,
ever. -Stephen and stand-off. The meaning, nccerdltig te
the leading highbrows, Is as follews: If n guy is stale
he can't de his best and his mates nlse suffer. Therefore
they can't win and the ether side in In the some condition,
and what could be clearer than that?
Side-stepping this modern slung, we beg te announce
that the Navy, if It defeats Wet Point tills f.f ernoen,
will have wen eleven games since 1S00. The Army has
amassed that total in the same period of time, and the
nerles will be deadlocked In case of sea victory.
The Navy in in great shape for the game and Is the
favorite. This Is because of the heavy, experienced line,
the great team play of the barks and the coaching of Heb
Folwell. This is Folwell's first year at Annapolis, and
his work has been very geed. He has developed n geed
team and made quite a showing during the season.
Kelwcll Is an aggressive tutor, lie sends his men out
te fight hard from the start and carry the battle te the
enemy. lie does net believe in plajing it safe, as was the
case last year. Although the Navy had the better team.
Debic was satisfied with three points scored by n field goal
and did net get enthused after another goal was t-cered.
It was his idea te nurse these points along and play en,
the defensive the remainder of the game.
Folwell is different His men will trot out en the
field all set te wipe the field with the Cadets and score as
many touchdowns as possible. There will be no con
servatism in their plaj . The Cadets will be charged with
the same spirit, se a great game is in prospect.
Frem where we are sitting it leeks as If the Navy hnd
the dge because of the hard gemee played this year. All
but two games were h&rd ones. North Carolina beating
them In the opener and later Princeton winning by the
core of 14 te 0. Lafayette, Iluckiicll and Georgetown,
three of thi best teams in the country, were defeated, and
Bew the Middles arc ready for the final battle.
A" THE fine, Annapeli has a big advantage.
Perhaps the Army has a iliqht edqe in the back
field icith IVilhidc and Frrnch en the team, but thev
are individual performers. Felicell hopes te eff'et
this advantage icith perfect learn tcerk.

FRANCE CADETS SHOULD SHINE WITH FRENCH TODAY AGAINST NA VYfl
experience. While one or two of his backfietd hed becq
under fire In big games, the majority didn't knew what it
was all about. Net until the Notre Dame battle did they
renlirc what could happen in nn important contest.
Daly's hurdest job was developing n 'line, for with
only one or two exceptions the candidates were first-jenr
men. Majer "Pets" Graves, an nsslstent, has beeu tutor
ing the forwards elid seems te have accomplished wonders.
However, his men will have a hard time against Wllderu,
Wilkie, Lumen, Moere nnd King of the Navy.
King is one of the best tackles in the country and
also shines as a place-kicker. It was he who booted the
two gea.s from the field last year and wen the game, lln
casllj Is the star of the team.
French, the former Ilutgers flash, Is the best player
at West Point. He is one of the leading scorers of the
year and a great open-field runner. He is expected te de
most of the advancing today, but will have u hard time
of It if the field is muddy.
A soft gridiron also will hntidlcap the offense of the
Cadets. Fer weeks they hove been werklug en nn open
nttack, similar te that used by Notre Dame. It will be
remembered that this was done once before, nnd right hen
en Franklin Field, when the Merrilat-Prichard cembina
tien put ever a L'O-te-0 victory. The Nuvy was tin
favorite in this game.

Regarding Reversed Schedules
A ROUT ten days nge." writes C. S. K., "In one of
rt-jeur articles jeu referred te the rather hard schedule
of some of the big football teams. Yeu seemed te have
overlooked the smaller teams, such as Delaware, Penn-r-ylvanin
Military Academy, Haver.erd, Swnrthmere, etc.
"These teams start in with a reverse schedule; play nil
the big teams first, get the life fairly whaled out of them
in the first three or four weeks of their schedule and then
try te come te rnd finish up with one or two games with
teams of their own cnllbcr.
"It certainly requires n let of nerve te stand up each
-neck before a team that you knew In advance is going te
annihilate you, roll up half a dozen touchdowns in about
thirty minutes of play.
"I would like te have you touch en this subject some
time."

the rival factions. Diplomatic Wash
ington sent its quota of representatives
and the society of the country was out
in ierce.
Distinguished Generals
One of the ticket holders was a dis
tinguished French general Ilebert
Geerges Nlvelle, the "Suvier of Ver
dun." General Pershing was a box
holder. The future generals and admirals of
the nation, the gray-clod cadets from
up the Hudsen and the trim middles in
blue from Maryland came te town In
special trains, headed by their bands
nnd mascots, the mule nnd goat, re-
spcctirly.
Hustling New Yerk, struck by the
brilliant pre-game spectacle, caught
something of the spirit of the tradi
tions invehed in this classic contest
and the colors of the rival aendemies
were everywhere te be seen in the hotel
I and theatrical districts."
I The opposing tennis were kept in com
' parntive seclusion during the morning
hours Ileth coaches. Heb Folwell. of
l the Navj , and Majer Charles Daly, of
the Army, expressed continence in vic
tory en It-hnlf of their teams. Te im
partial observers, the elevens seemed te
be fairlv evenly matched, with the Navy
ruling a slight favorite among the
betting gentry.
A iter for the Annapolis players
will even up the standing of the two
academies, for of the twenty-two games
plnved the Army has wen eleven and the
Navj, 10, with one game ending in a
tl- tie tl tie.
The crowd at the Pole Greuuds will
be. as usunl, remarkable for the small
number of civilians. The stands will be
dotted with geld-striped officers of the
Navj who will touch elbows with
mnjers, colonels and generals of the
Arm. Among the civilians whose ces
tumes appear rntlter drab along side
the bril'iant service uniforms, will be
high officials from ashlngten. city
authorities from here and Philadelphia
plus a big band of football coaches
from institutions in various sections
of the country.
Until Have Hands
When the rooting sections arrive et
the Pole Grounds, they will be hended
by their well -trained bands pleying
martial music that resounded In Ger
many nearly two years age when the
American ermy of occupation carried
the victorious Stars and Stripes into
the Hhlnelnnd.
While the odds were slightly In favor
nf the Navy team this morning the
Armv men were confident that their
eleven would be able te put up just as
geed a battle as Heb Folwell's bunch.
I.nst car the Nnvy was also e slight
favorite', and they wen by six points.
The Middles bel!ee that they will re
pent this afternoon, but they ure net

Until elevens are in geed condition,
nnd both nre well fixed in second nnd
third string men. ......
Ne one clnims that the Naval Acad
emy has a back the equal of French, of
the Army, in brl'llancy, but it Is be
lieved that the Navy has n for better
bolenced bnckfield nnd nny number of
bucks who are better than nnj man but
French In the Arm elMnse. The
strength of the Nnvy Is In tills depart
ment, along with a stronger and mere
experienced line, though It is no heavier
than the Armj's.
The Navj has sixteen players special
ly trained us backs nnd four are coach
ed te work in one position There Is no
plnver In the let who has net had ex
perience. Most of them began their
training under Oil Doble, and have con
tinued it under Felwel.
The second string barks leek te be as
god as the HrsU The third and fourth
strings contain some excellent men, and
every one of the sixteen players has
abllitv in carrying the ball. Se close
Is the strength of the first two sets that
the second string mnj play a portion of
the game.
Kehlcr, Hamilton, McKee and Con Cen
rov will start. Kcehler Is the only vet
eran in the let,, although Hamilton nnd
Conre were moved te the first squad to
ward the close of last season McKee Is
a member of the new class. Keehler and
Cenrn are expected te mnke the tell
ing gains, nnd McKee n'se has done well
In recent games.
The second backfleld consists of "flaw
ling, Cruise. Watters and Neytjs, It is
heavier, elder nnd mere experienced
than the first let. Cruise played through
the West Point game last year, and
was a first choice during the early
games of this season. Wattem would
orebably have started ngalnst the Array
Inst year but for en injury. Itawllngs
had experience en a college team before
entering the Academy, and has been n
substitute of high rating for two sea
sons. NeycH is a new midshipman, but

Western Drama
THE West collected about t0 per cent
of football's annual drama this full,
with Ohie State leading the parade.
In fnct, there has been nothing like
the drnmu of n conference championship
in all football history.
Ga.mes were wen us time was up with
the ball in midair en the Inst pass of
the day, or with eight or ten seconds
left in which te secure the needed points.
The East had little of this sort te
offer, one of the few exceptions being
the Harvard-Princeton game.
On n general average the West made
better use of the forward pass thun the
East did, mainly because the West took
up the passing game years age, when
most of the leading eustern universities
still regarded this ort In the nature of
being an oblong joke.

The only ridiculous part of this being
the statement.
A standard defense can block the

class modern attack in which for ull

S TOPS JOE WELLING
t
Lighttveight Titleholder, Weighing in at 134 Pounds
Displays All His Amazing Speed in Checking
Opponent in Fourteenth Round
By LOUIS
New Yerk, Nev. 27.
"DENNY LEONAUD, world's chnm-"-
pien llghtwclgth successfully de
fended his diadem n his first
bout te n refcrce's decision since he
dethroned Freddy Welsh, three years
age, by scoring a technical knockout
ever Jee Welling, of Chicago, in the
fourteenth round here Inst night.
Befcrcc Johnny Houkep, of Brooklyn,
stepped the bout one minute nnd four
teen seconds nftcr that session started.
Staggering nreiiud the ring, with his
arms dangling nt his sides and unable
te pretict himself, Welling was iti a
prccorieus predicament, nnd the third
man in the ring made a wise move in
bringing the contest te a halt. Leon Leen
ard had knocked down Welling four
times, thrice In the thirteenth round
nnd once In the fourteenth.
That Welling is u game boxer was
roved beyond a shudew of doubt,
'cspltc the advice and plendlngs of his
handlers te stny down end take the
count of nine, the Chlcagean staggered
te his feet when three had been (oiled
ever him en his first visitation te the
ennvns in the thirteenth. Leenard wns
after his fee like n. tiger, aiifl unce mere M
n left hook spilled Welllnc, This

n lively mlx-up, with the big crowd
thnt jammed the Mdlsn Srfpiare Oar
den te capacity up en its feet in a
frenzy, whensthc bell came te Wclllng's
rescue.
Welling hnd recuperated semewhrtt
when he stepped out for the fourteenth.
lie tried his utmost te held Leenard
off with u straight left, but Benny
stepped In with n tcirific right upper
cut te the chin nnd Welling went down
like the proverbial leg. lie scarcely
was able te get te his feet at the count
of nine, but did se. und then, like u
drowning man grasping for a strnvv, he
fell into a tUlnch. By holding en with
n death -like grip, the Chlcagean vyes
able te regain n lltUe of bis ebbing
strength. But, slinking off his "punch
drunk" antagonist, Leenard started te
pelt Welling with right nnd lefts. It
was then that Ilaukep stepped between
the boxers, motioned Welling te his
corner nnd raised Leenard's right nrm
indicating that Benny was the winner
by n knockout. This wns the first
championship battle decided In New
Yerk in about twenty years.
A terrific uproar nrese when the bout
wns stepped. There were hundreds who
seemed te believe than nn injustice had
been done the game and gritty Welling.
Jee, himself, protested the decision
weakly, still htacgering nnd woozy,
while Temmy Wnlsh, his handler,
leaped into the ring with urras flying
nnd n loud, dissenting voice.
Hewever1, Welling undoubtedly was n
badly-beaten boy nnd the uet of the
offlelul was the only thing that savcu
him from further punishment, and pos
sibly from serious injury.
Leenard Kver Watchful
It really took Leenard thirteen rounds
before he wus able te score with n
punch en a vulnerable, spot, although
lie was in the lend from the opening
gong. He tried Ids utmost te put away
Welling from the outset, punching his
hardest round offer round.
