 Columbia Game

 They Have the Blues at Princeton
 No Familiarity Allowed at Harvard
 Georgetown Defeated the Navy
 Team.
 New Haven, Oct 29-That Yale is worried over the outcome of the game with Columbia was evidenced yester- day when nine old Yale players ap- peared on the field to assist in the coaching. They were George Adee, Charley Chadwick, George Chadwick, Skim" Brown, Brink Thorne, Dr Hammond, Howard Knapp, Coy and Phil Stillman. This is the largest number of coaches that has appeared at New Haven this season. Most of these men witnessed the downfall of Pennsylvania in the game with Colum. bia last Saturday, and they told Coach Chadwick thatS Yale will have to put her best forward to beat the Blue and White aggregation. For the first time this season Walter Camp, the advisory coach of the Yale eleven, took a hand at executive coaching yesterday. His customary place during the practice. Meas6n has been on the side lines; Yesterday he took general charge of the work, paying particular attention to the line men in the proper defens- i've formation. Captain Winslow of ! the baseball team, who has been try ying for quarter, was carried from the field yesterday afternoon with his right knee dislocated
 Annapolis Md, Oct 29.-The mid shipmen were fortunate not to lose yesterdays football game against 5eorgetown by larger score than 12 to 5, for the visitors were stronger and faster and played better football in every way except, perhaps in hold ing on to the ball. The Georgetown line was stronger, but the great sl- periority of yesterdays opponents was in their swift and powerful backs. No occupants of the half back posi- tions who have been seen here this seaspn have approached the showing made by Joe Reilly yesterday, and Hart at right half and Martell at full were splendid interferences for their runners and were used to great ad- 4 towns most effective play was a variation of the double pass, in which one of the backs, seemingly about 10 be tackled, would pass the ball to an- other running in the same direction, but beyond the Navy tacklers. This play was carried out with great accur- sacy, and the play generally gained gained from fifteen to thirty yards.
 
 Princeton, N. J., Oct 29.-Everyone seemed to have "the blues around sthe football camp yesterday. Al though the practice was supposed to abe in secret, enough has leaked out to ruake. even the mast stout-hearted ad- Rlirers of the orange and black feel heDeless.
 Tie scrubs went through the regu- Jars like moving machine yesterday, flle latter never getting within the scrub 25-yard line. -zs------..-~.--,e -
 Dewitt hasn't begun to show up to last years form. Several times yes terday he tried to kick goal from the 5eld. but failed each time.
 In bunting alone is he up to the mark, and this does not encourage the coachers to any extent.
 Unless a form reversal is evident within the next few days, Princeton stock will be at low ebb.
 Cambridge, Mass, Oct 29@-C Com nent here yesterday principally con cerns the attitude of the players to the coaches and to Captain Marshall All familiarity is tabooed, and though at times the air is blue with 1nvective while some unfortunate rush is being toasted on the ehaing dish, 1t would be as much as his life is worth to call Marshall by his first name. One hears nothing but "Mr Captain, 2 fsMr Wal terk" Or "Mr Cranston'' all over the field. This return to Bill Reid's old policy is said to be due to the fact that several Of the older players have been accused by the gossips of standing too elose' to the throne.
 Philadelphia, Get 29.-The Penn . sylvania team, smarting under the hurniliating defeat administered by Columbia, came on tue field yesterday grim and determined looking. The strong second team was lined up against them, and although they SCOT cd five touebdowns against the scrubs, Y was apparent to all who witnessed the work that there is still something palpably wrong with the teams make ID. Individually the players seem to work well. but whep it comes to teatn work there is Woeful lack of ginger.
 Considerable money was bet yester- day in the Broad street curb market, New York. on the result of the game between Yale and Columbia next Sat- urday. The odds at one time got as high as , to 1 on Yale. Most of the bets were made at 21a to i.
