FOOTBALL.
WEST POINTS CHANCES TO-DAY.

West Point N Y, Oct (SpeciaD .-Although the
cadet football team has practised faithfully under
the watchful eyes of competent coaches, they
showed little improvement in the lineup to-day. 1t
would puzzle an expert TO determine whether they
had progressed in the least since their poor show
ing Of last week. Lieutenant Leon B. Kroner
who has been recently detailed here gymnasium
officer went on the field this afternoon and gave the
team little of his experience. Lieutenant Kroner
helped coach the team last year. When cadet he
was the best quarterback the soldiers ever had
Kroner was with his regiment in Cuba until
few days ago.
The lack of aggressiyeness which was so pain
fully apparent last week is stl visible Loose in
reference. half hearted tackng, slow passing Of
the ball and a score of minor faults make up the
deficiencies Of the team. So many signs of weak
ness are apparent that it would hardly require the
efforts Of second rate team to snatch at this
time victory from the soldiers.
The coaches bending their energies to whip
the men into kind of shape for the hard
game which it is expected that Penn State College
will put up to7morTow ha ST year tI h with
for the soldiers. They were badly defeated and
we'll used up when they finished with the Quaker
Youngsters.

There is prospect that the Newkrk-ave. gram

because Tammany stupidity and red tape have
prevented the necessary improvements The Board
of Health has announced that the building must
be closed unless it is connected with the city
sewer within a short time. At present the only
outlet for the sewage is a number of cesspools.
These are a constant danger.
Residents of the district have tried to find out
why the necessary sewers not laid. They
were told by the Sewer Department that ii could
not do anything, because the local Board of I'M
provement had not acted. Members Of the local
Board still further shift the blame the Topo-

about an hour 1t was difficult to detect the exact
Improvement since the Rutgers game. The line
was still wofully weak. Sanford gave the varsity
the ball on their twenty yard line and told them TO
work IL down the field by punung. The varsity
tried hard to do so but the scrub team held well.
Finally Ashley kicked a goal from the field the
TWENTY-FIVE yard line. The men were well winded
at the end of the first half In the next half Jerry"
Sykes the quarterback, who made such a splendid
impression at Branford, put more energy and nerve
into the varsity's play than had been seen this
season But at the end of the twelve minutes
