Sporting Notes
N~~~~ ~~~N1~ ~NN~N-.

The rahs for Harvard were scarcely
heard.
Former Captain DAILY evidently
knew the weak points of the Cam
bridge men.
Cadet Lieut. Munroe, a son Of J..
Perley Munroe, senatorial candidate,
played centre for West Point yester-
| day against Harvard
/ The showing of Holy Cross has i'm
! proved daily since Coach Common as
4 sumed Charge But for the policy that
] allowed the team to be without a coach
of experience, the Purple might be
stronger.
Amherst Aggies and Worcester
of defensive football that was ever
seen. but in offensive work the fast
playing was a delight to the eye.
But for two weak spots in the line
between tackle and tackle, Tech would
be able to make a splendid showing
against any fairly strong team.
Boston English High School fell in
a 30 to game last year. Worcester
High has been going back since its I'M
expected victory over st. Marks Ex-
tension Of the dome is one of the terms
applied to the afiiction of several of
the youths.
1t cost C. Albert Gray $25 to see
Worcester High get beaten yesterday.
That was the amount of the guarantee
and as there was no admission fee the
faculty members of the board in charge
of High School athletics, had to pro-
duce the coin.
Until more money is in sight there
will be no football games says Mr..
Gray in referring to the financial con-
dition of Worcester High School foot
ball team.
Worcester Academy has the call at
present so far as strength is concerned,
judging by the showing of Academy
and High School teams against
Groton.
-O'Hearn of the Amherst Aggies IS
one of the fastest ends seen in Wor-
cester this season. He is also some
thing of chatterer and his kicks al
ways come at times when the specta-
tors want to see football played
Capt. Paul of the Amherst Aggies
is a Lynn boy, who never played foot
ball until dragged into 1t at college.
Paul played centre last year, his first
season in the game, but he has shifted
to halfback. There seems to be a de-
sire on the part of football captains
to get into the ground-gain depart
ment.
1t was a regular baseball score
to in favor Of Dartmouth-in the
game against Williams. at Newton
Centre, yesterday. The teams had not
met before for three years.
Last year Harvard defeated West
Point 20 to 0. Yesterday the crimson
was lucky to get six points. The Grim
son is certainly fading.
-Libe Washburn, last year captain
of the Brown University football team
and prominent as a baseball pitcher,
has signed to play professionally with
the Philadelphia football team.
Coach Delaney will have a speech
for the High School players at prac-
tice tomorrow that will make several
pairs of ears Jingle.
In the steeplechase at Morris Park
Yesterday. King T., owned by Harry
W. Smith of this city. finished third
TO illuminate and Curfew Bell.
President Franklin of the Buffalo
baseball team thinks he sees a chance
tn rid himself of his burden A trio
of Buffalo sporting men has an option
on the team and this expires early
this week.
Burke took a long chance at the
oval Yesterday when he gave the ball
to Chickering for an end play when
Tech was within five yards of the goal
line. The daring of the Tech quarter
hack won. for ChickerinR was barely
hindereA as he made his way around
the end and scored. the Aggies being
massed for a defense of the line.
One of the surprises of the season
is that there have been no hard luck
stories from New Haven. and it is
admitted even by the coaches that the
Blue IS fairly strong.
B. H Benton of Boston. otherwise
known as Rob Roy, deliberately falsi
ies when he says that Lundin was
formerly Tom Jenkins wrestling part
ner at SIS per week. The best that any
newspaper man who knows Mr.. Ben
ton can say Of him is, that. unfortu
nately. he is employed by a newspaper.
ANY one who ever has had dealings
with Rob Roy himself, knows what a
big Interrogation point looks like. The
colonel is certainly Sone Of the king
pins when it comes to show down Of
low tricks.
