Capt. Trenchard, the Princeton football play
srs and their long hair will leave their training
quarters at ouogue this morning. Tomorrow
NJ noon they will report for light practice at
Princeton, and on Sept. 20 the members Of last
years champion eleven and few Of the best
substitutes will 90 10 the training table. Hlth-
erto all candidates for the varsity eleven have
taken seats at the training table, but under
Capt. Trcnchard's new regime q player cannot
have seat unless he demonstrates TO the salts
faction OF the coachers that he has foot
ball In him and can play the game. In
this way young freshmen will not have o
chance 10 swell with pride over the fact that
although they cannot play much football they
still have the privilege Of eating with the
varsity men, It r. Capt. Trenchard's intention
70 begin hard training at Princeton with about
twenty-five men, and TO increase or diminish
that number as he may see at. The men viii be
in charge Of Trainer Jack McMasters, and will
be ready TO play their nrst game of the season
College team.
The Tigers work at ouogus has been most
satisfactory 10 Trenohsrd and the coschers The
line mon went there merely 10 get the benefit of
the sea breezes and good bathing, but the backs
had some excellent practice. To THE Sun re-
porter who visited ouogus yesterday Capt.
Trenchard said:
81 am very hopeful. The practice here has
developed two unmistakable facts. One Is that

without much trouble, although We realize
what great man Blake was. The other IL that
at quarter back we are very weak and It will
take deal of tinkering to fill Kings shoes.
Then, again, you can say positively that last
years centre rush, Ballet, will not return TO
college, and, consequently, his place must be
hlled, too. have received letter from Ballet,
in which he says he Ia married and has gone
into business 30 there is no chance Of his re-
turning.
For full back we have partially developed
some good men. Mccormick, 'e5, Is by far the
most promising Just now. He weighs 1856 pounds
stripped, and was q substitute half back last
year. He Ia very fast runner, quick starter.
and hard man to down. besides being tho best
drop kicker in college. Burt, 90, is at present

Princetons Captain continued:
1t will be hard to fill Balliet's place. as he |
was undoubtedly the best centre that ever |
played football. We have three good men trying |

would have to meet the Tigers much earlier |
than usual or not at all. |
AS TO the Thanksgiving Day game with Yale, |
