TEAM SHAKEN UP.
Holy Cross Players Moved
About-Trinity Game
Arranged.

Coach Morris Conner was responsible
for a wholesale shake-up in the Holy
Cross eleven yesterday noon, when they
went on the field for practice. His OBJ
Ject is to accustom the players to a
change in position and have as many
men as possible in shape for use in the
game against Brown Saturday. The re-
suit was that the two elevens were very
evenly matched and a warm practice
game was played The lineup of the
teams was
spending the summer as the guest of

father called at the college yesterday,
and as he disapproved of Walters play
ing the game, Mercer had no choice but
to return his suit to Manager Peter E.
Hand William j. Baldwin will now
probably be fixture at left half back.
He was out in foot ball rig yesterday,
but not knowing the signals, was not
used in the lineup. Coah Conner, how
ever, set him to work at tackling the
dummy and gave him pointers on the
best manner Of playing his position.
Capt. Kenney anticipates having three
full elevens on the field today, one of
which will be pitted against the varsity
in each half. Morrison, new man,
with experience on high school grid
irons, will be out today for an end or
half back position.
Manager Peter A. Hand of the Holy
Cross College foot ball team yesterday
received a letter from Manager M. G.
Haight of the Trinity College foot ball
team, saying that his team would be in
this city Oct to play the local col
lege men at the Worcester oval. The
game had previously been cancelled by
the manager of the Trinity team, but
he later found that the game could be
played.
The game will attract good deal
of attention in this city, as already
thousands of tickets have been sold
for it. The teams will play for the
benefit of St Gabriels Orphanage.
which Is conducted by the Sisters OF
Mercy on High street. The committee
in charge of the game was very much
dishearfened when they learned of the
cancelling of the game, and now they
are confident that with their original
attraction that the receipts will aid the
otphanage greatly.
THE Junior class held an important
business meeting yesterday afternoon
