PRACTICE OF PRINCETON CLUB.
So Hot That Trainer McMasters Had
to Turn Hose on PLAYERS.

Princeton, N. j., Oct. 1.-The chief
player in the final practice Of the vars
ity prior to the Lehigh game was Old
Sol, and he made it so exceedingly hot
for the fierce tigers and the scrub
eleven that Trainer McMasters went on
the gridiTon with a garden hose and
watered the squad. The halves were
cut down to five and six minutes re-
spectively, but even then the varsity
scored three touchdowns.
Johnny Baird, last years great full
back, after a weeks lay off, made his
appearance today and played one-half
at his old position. He is not yet in
good condition, however. The Lehigh
game tomorrow will be the first game
of the season for the tigers, and it is
hardly probable that big score will
be rolled up.

work the batters. Getzein was a good
one and could stand more work than
many twirlers.
when we compare Brouthers to
Doyle, Dan was Doyle's superior as
a batsman because he could hit all
pitchers, and his drives were longer
and harder than those of any other
player. But in every other respect he
was Doyle's inferior. Hanlon was
quite modest when 1t came to make
comparisons between Stencil and him
self, but experts who saw him in his
prime will agree that he was a better
fielder and base runner than Stencil,
but not so clever a batsman.
Hanlon also declared that training
methods had changed somewhat. He
believes in permitting his men to drink
a glass Of beer after playing, or when
ever they feel like it, so long as they
do not abuse the privilege. In the old
days, drinking in any form was strictly
forbidden, as 1t is in some of the Ma
tional league clubs today.
