Every team in the league with the
possible exception of Ynlp has nn ex
cellent opportunity to win the trophy.
The Eli team is not as strong this jenr
according to reports from New Haven
ap it was laot season. Princeton was at
first thought to be the only dangerous
rival to Penn, but Captain Molinet and
his Corenll playmates spilled the well
known dope Inst Monday night by
trouncing the Tigers by u four-point
margin. Even Dartmouth, coached by
George Zahn, of this city, the cellar
champions for several years feel certain
they are going rto change things this
Mason anil make trouble for the other
quintets.
Three new coaches take the reins this
year, Eddie McNiehol, nt Penn ; Lou
Sugarman, the professional, and once
fifshman coach at Penn, who is guld
irg Trineeton, and Joe Deering, a league
referee for seasons, who holds the reins
at Columbln.
New York writers predict that Penn
will be much weaker this year with the
loss of Mike Hwecney, who led the
league In scoring last year, and of (Dutch

last season, The.v do not ficure nnv of

Veterans ut Princeton
Princeton this season Tias virtually n
veteran team. Captain Notts, at for

member of a Western college five pre
vious to entering Princeton. Ople was
a substitute forward last year, who will
be remembered by Penn followers as the
lad who wore the eve tiroteetors In
that memorable four extra period game
last year. He Is holding down n regu
lar forward berth this season. Dickin
son Is the center man and a veteran,
while IiCgendre and Wlttmcr, the
guards, are nlso seasoned players.
Legendre and Wlttmcr were members
of the Tiger football team during the
fall.

of Inst year, and one of the best for

Joe Lynch, the new king of the ban
tams, Is a New Yorker, but he owes
a whole lot to n young Phlladelphlnn,
nnd Lynch himself would probably be
the first to acknowledge It.
For it was through, this local man
thnt Joe was taken up when he went
to England in the uniform of n dough
boy from Franc nfter the armistice,
and was given his firrt opportunity to
meet a hendlincr In the fight game.
The hendlincr was Tommy Noble. The
Philadelphlan was "Jack" Potter, then
n captain In the A. K. P., attached
to the staff of General Kiddle ih Lon
don, nnd in charge of all nthletlc and
recrentlonnl activities of the Yanks In
the United Kingdom, ,
Jack rotter Is a son of .Thnnir Pot
ter, former president of .the Phillies.
wnen tlie A. K. F. held its first great
athletic carnival after the slin nc iff
the armistice. Lynch. Eddie MetJoortv
and Angle Itatner cumc out on top if
the heap In their respective classes.
Captain Potter conceived the-, idea of
bringing them to England to try them
out against the best of the Krltlsliers.
The three fighters, all in their dough
boy uniforms, went ncrons the channel
nnd were Installed in the American Y.
M. C. A.'s Grafton Hotel, McCoorty
neted as Lynch 's trainer and mnuiigcr
and he and Captain Potter engineered
the match with Tommy Noble, then the
Idol among the little fellows In Eng
land.
Lynch and Noble met in the ring on
tho afternoon of February 3, 11)11).
Noble, early in the fight, found lie was
tip against the toughest proposition of
his career. Several times the crowd
yelled nt the referee to warn Noble on
account of his rough tactics, but Lynch
smiled, shook his head'ns much as to
say everything was all right nnd waded
right in.
Lynch battled Noble off his feet and
won the decision by a mile. When the
men left tho ring Lynch was given an
ovation by the Krltishers. while their
own countrymnn was loudly hissed and
"boovd" on the way to Ills dressing
room.
During the whole tight Captain .luck,
Potter sat nt the ringside, watching
his protege. Ketwecn rounds McGoorty
went up to the captain and held whis
pered consultations with him nnd it was
pretty gencrnllv understood thnt
Lynch's style of lighting was advised by
Potter. If so, it was the best diplomatic
thing that the captain ever did. The
high opinion of the Yanks uh clean unit
fair lighters was Increased when Lynch
met Wilde nnd lost the decision by the
narrowest of margins and refused to
kick about it, und when, Inter, Eddie
McGoorty put up such a guine and clean
fight against Keekct, who knocked him
out after as pretty a battle as the
British funs had ever seen.
