VS. Lafayette, at Easton; Amherst vs.
Bowdoin, at Hmherst; Williams VS..
Syracuse, at Syracuse; Pennsylvania
State VS. Annapolis. at Annapolis, ana
in the west, Wisconsin VS. Michigan,
at Chicago the last named bringing to-
gether what are regarded as the two
strongest teams in the west though the.
University of Chicago is in the run
ming. Chastened by defeat, Columbia
goes to Philadelphia nothing like so
buoyant as when she joulned to
Princeton last week, but no less de-
termined. A little more of the stern
er quality of grim resolve to fight it
out to the last ditch and little less
buoyant as when she journied to
lumbia team in good stead. No team
has faced adversely and tried to fight
it off with more logged pluck than the
be seen whether Columbia can do as
well.
New Haven, Oct 31.The last hard
practice in preparation for the West
Point game was taken yesterday after
noon at the Yale field. two short halves
being played in which the varsity tore
up the college team at will and scored
two touchdowns, Kinney and Captain
Chadwick doing the scoring. Tom
Shevlin at right end did some brilliant
work. He was down the field under
| every. punt, and although the college
| team had two men against him who
played on the defensive, he invariably
/, managed to evade them. From tackle

football and should have no trouble in

men.
Princeton, Oct 31.-The Princeton
eleven had its last hard practice be-
fore the Cornell game yesterday after
noon and slumped badly, being beaten
by the scrubs, 5 to O. The Tigers
team play has been greatly disorgan-
lied by the loss of Burke and Kafer

Philadelphia, Oct 31.-Fast, vicious
football characterized the final scrim-
mage between the Pennsylvania var

I paration for the Columbia game. The

twenty-five minutes, and although the

here which was felt two days ago.
New York. Oct 31.-The football
| practice at Columbia yesterday was
disheartening to the hundreds of stu
dents who swarmed the side lines. In
the first place Captain Weekes. Smith,
Tomlinson, Thorpe, Dollin and Wolff,
all varsity men. did not play for one
reason or another. Weekes has a
sprained ankle from the Princeton
game and Smiths leg is still SO bad
that he has difficulty in walking, and
it seems impossible for him to play
against Pennsylvania tomorrow. The
other men have minor injuries, or need
rest.
Cambridge, Oct 31.-Frye, one of the
candidates for guard on the Harvard
freshman football squad. broke leg
in the scrimmage yesterday afternoon
and was taken to the StllIman infirm-
airy. This is the first serious accident
