PRINCETON MEN TO BEGIN WOhK AGAIN

PRINCETON MEN TO BEGIN wOhK AGAIN.
FEW CHANGES LIKELY IN THE ELEVEN RESULTS
OF RECENT PRACTICE.
Princeton. ~ j., Nov. tSpcciaD-The Princeton
football players have had a rest during most OF
the week before beginning hard work in prepare
ton for the great game with Ya.e on November %
at Manhattan Field for the intercollegiate cham
pionship With the opening of next week hard
and vigoro, work will begin and the coachers Will
not let up the players till day or two before
the great championship contest. The Harvard
game was big revelation of the strength OF the
princeton eleven. Whereas before that game
Princeton entertained little hope of winning a
championship this season. now the entire conese
will go I'D 70 Manhattan Fled the 23d with
no little confidence of seeing the orange and black
floating proudly over the blue. The players them
selves have the utmost hope of victory.
The men have been stiff and sore ever since the
Harvard match. Captain Lea has his arm and
shoulder In thick bandages, and the physicians say
that he may be out OF the game for good. 1t can
not be learned how badly he is injured DR..
Bovaird is undecided whether the collarbone Is
cracked or whether the muscles are simply torn
In any event Lea will not be abe to take his
place in the line for two weeks. and VIII conse-
ouently be deprived of valuable practice just at
time when he will most need it II he is TO go into
the big game His place is being taken by a sub
stitute Tyler. Tyler has had two seasons ex-
perience on the scrub and as varsity SUBSTITUTE
He is by no means tame player, but Is far from
Iea's equal. On the defence he can be relied upon
but his aggressive work is hardly up to varsity
form. Cochran will captain the team in Leas ao-
sence He generals the eleven in good shape but
here again Lea will be missed. as Cochran is
somewhat inexperienced.
Few changes likely to occur In the makeup
of the eleven. The line will face Yale much as 1t
faced Harvard. with the exception Of injured play
ers Galley Riggs and Rhodes have proved them
selves to be a reliable centrepiece, and 1t would
take the hardest kind of playing for any Of the
substitutes to gain a position there. Churchs
work while ragged at times, was. on the whole.

charged to his account in the long Harvard match:
and then he did not lose the ball, but fell on IL
himself Sirce the big game he has fallen of in
his play in practice, and at times Nelson Poe has
taken his place. Poe. however has been tried. ana
has failed TO come up TO the mark in former games.
and Is consequently not likely 10 give Sutor much
trouble in the long run =,
A change is likely to occur at right halfbacK
unless Armstrong plays better game man he has
been showing lately. He runs high and Is an easy
mark for good tacklcr. He r. slow in seiiing on
his feet and fumbes far too often. Barnard is his
superior in hitting the line. and will probably give
the big man considerable trouble. If Roscngarten
lasts tn November % without injury, he Will un-
doubtcdly play against Yale his work against
Harvard ELECTED much applause. He is good at
buckng the line. but is weak on defensive play.
HIS judgment not the best and ne is totally UNI
reliable in catching punts But his quick, dashlng
STYLE of play is likely TO carry him into the big
game. especially as Sutor and Baird can be relied
on to take the punts
Baird shares with Sutor the honors OF star work
in the Harvard match. 1t was with no little diff
dence that Captain Lea decided to intrust the
freshman kicker with the responsible position OF
fuback But the young man proved himself the
equal of Harvards veteran kicker, and nothing
short Of sickness injury would induce the Prince
ton coachers to give his position TO another now
