 Players.

Players.
 New Haven, Oct 14.--Jol1E A. Moore head, a member of the senior class and residing in Allegheny, Pa,, yester- day afternoon sustained a fracture of the right leg just below the knee dur ing the regular scrimmage between the Yale varsity and college teams. Moore head had gone into the game in place of Shevlin at right end. Tn a scrim- mage another player struck him with his head, causing the fracture. Moore head was carried from the field and sent to the city, accompanied by Train CT Murphy.
 New Haven, Oct 14-The coaches gave the Yale gridironists a rest yes terday because of the Holy Cross game to-day. The boys from the Mas sachusetts college are rather a formid- able proposition to tackle, and a little rest, especially after Mondays stiff work, seemed to be in order. Rora- back got his place at center, and Smith was relegated to the scrub. Morton was kept at guard on the second eleven. Batchelder proving rather bet ter than he in his place on the varsity. Batehelder will be in the lineup against Holy Cross. Only one touch down was scored. Kinney carrying the ball. and the new plays, with Shev1in, Hogan, Kenney and Bloomer advancing the leather. were tried aout a little Bloomer still worries the coaches. as he seems to be miles off his previous form. The fact that he has been out of the game so long has probably put 1 him in bad shape He is expected to come around in time for the big games. i The Harvard-Amherst game has given l the Yale coaches cause for g1ee, which | they are not trying to conceal. If Am l herst could break through the Crimson l line as they did. what shouldn't the Blue be able to do to Harvard?
 I Princeton, Oct 14.-Princeton did lit tie work yesterday afternoon. as Le- I higT will play here to-day. The men 1 had completely recovered from the stiffness after the Brown game and were given just a little additional linn
 bering up work. No regular scrim-
 images were held, about twenty min- utes being devoted to speedy, snappy
 signal formations. A few new plays
 were rehearsed, and will be given a thorough trial today. Coach Hide l brand has no expectation that the Le- l high team will prove a very hard pro- l position. but is anxious that none of 1 the good men shall get hurt. He will
 send in a full line of substitutes after the game is we'll under way, if things 1 go right.
 I Cambridge, Oct 14.JThere was nc l Iet-up in. the Harvard practice yester- I day afternoon. although Wesleyan will
 be here to play to-day. The scrub and varsity held a fierce half-hour scrim I mage, and the scrub, reinforced by sev.
 eral varsity players, tore things up < to the increas sing gloom. of Cranstor and the other coaches. Harvard is 1T
 a slump. and there is apprehension even in game with so weak a team l as that of Wesleyan. Amherst was despised, and now every team tha1
 comes to Cambride looks to have 2
 chance of doing things to the Crimson
 Philadelphia. Oct Pennsylvania coaches decided that the plan of keep ing the varsity on the defensive was 2 ~good one, and the scrub again took tht ball yesterday at the centers of th' . field to work it down. A half hour'i |
 and then the first team took the bal , and ripped things up in handy fashion l Ithaca, Oct 14-Cornell has begu1 l to develop the plays she will depend l upon to defeat Princeton on Octobe :, 31 The Ithaca team has plenty O weight and force. The only thing lack 2 ing is good team work. The contes I with the giant team of Colgate las 7 Saturday gave the Ithacans the righ
 sort of practice. The coaches of Cor : nell now know the weak points of tn n eleven and they will hasten to strength en them. One thing can be set dow
 as certainty, and that is that Prince !. ton will have hard team to beat fl ] Cornell this year, despite the fact tha : the game will take place in the lair 0 the Tigers.
