Though the weather was warm yester-
day. the practice OF the Brown squad
was fast and a good deal OF hard work
was done by each candidate. The ground
was wet and soggy and prevented as fast
work as might be done under better con-
ditions, but the play was hard and was
continued without cessation. The foot
ing was somewhat uncertain for the line

yards and carried the ball over for
touchdown. and the ball was taken out

YOUNG CORBETT IN BOSTON

Boston, Sept. 3o.-Young Corbett. the
champion featherweight OF the world, ar
rived in this city yesterday. Concerning
himself and his future he had the follow
ing TO say:
II have had my share Of disappoint-
ments. and / do not think that the pub
lie fully appreciates my ability, but I
hope TO get there in time. When I whip
ped McGovern, a good many people
thought IL was an accident or lucky
punch, and in order TO demonstrate that
II was not a mistake I've got to beat
him again. I think I can do 1t, and all
want is the opportunity TO meet him
again in the ring. l believe that Meow
ern is just as confident as ] am, as he Is
anxious TO win back his laurels. and
am perfectly willing to give him the
chance. After our proposed contest In
Connecticut was declared of by the au-
thorities I thought sure that we would
come together in Louisville where they
allow middleweights TO fight, but barred
McGovern and myself.
I'VE are now practically matched for
another engagement, and this time IL
will probably he in San Francisco. The
bids for the fight will remain open until
Nov. Is, and we will probably come TO-
gether the week of Dec. Is TO %. In the
meantime ] believe In keeping busy, and
have signed TO meet Eddy Lenny. In Phil
adelphia Oct. T. and will meet Joe Bern
stein at Baltimore on Oct. is.
Referring TO the Louisville AFFAIR again
young Corbett said that he was conf
dent he would have won as soon as Terry
led for him If had fost- wottfd have
had no complaint TO make and will not II
| am ever beaten. I am not going TO he
like lot OF other people. say will quit
the moment ] lose, and then, after l do,
go on fighting again. To the woods for me
IL Terry or any one else ever knocks me
out or secures a just decision over me.

NO HOLY CROSS GAME

II is now definitely settled that Brown
will have no football game with Holy
Cross this year.
Last year. near the beginning of the
season, Brown beat the Worcester team
100.
II was a rough. heavy game. and there
were several protests on both sides.
This year Manager Dodge wanted TO
bring the teams together on November
u. He has'saved that date. and has been
10 Worcester several times 10 try TO
bring about a game.
This morning. however, he received no.
tice that Wednesday. Oct. s. was the only
day the game could be played. This date
is three days before the Yale game, and
is so out OF the question as far as Brown
is concerned
Perhaps Brown will play Amherst,
Oct s, but there will be no game at all
with Holy Cross. unless their manager
withdraws from his present position.
