ShOrtridge Players Must Take More
Interest in Practice.

The members of the Shortrdge football
team will have to take a decided brace in
training If it expects to win any more
games this season. The players have been
very slow this week about reporting for
practice and Captain Clark is feeling pretty
blue about the teams prospects for a
series of consecutive winnings. Captain
Clark said last night that he was unable
to state the reason fo- the lack Of in
terest and was of opinion that some of
the members of the team had idea that
they could win games without practice be-
cause they have scored two victories this
season.
1t was said that some of the members of
the Shortridge eleven were deficient in
their studies and the report cards. which
will be issued Monday, awaited with
anxiety. Some of the players have paid
more attention to football than study and
the faculty of the North Side school will
not allow this.
Captain Clark has mild case Of blood
poisoning. but will play in the game against
Culver next Saturday. His injury is not
painful. but If aggravated is liable 10
cause more serious trouble.

Reed dropped back TO the thirty-tive-yard
line. and with Larkin to catch and place
the ball for him, sent it between the posts
clean and true. Yale renewed her rush

field to sixth touchdown. Five minutes
later Yale again fumbled and from almost
the same location Reed again succeeded in
placing a goal. Every Yale student cheered
the play. During the remainder OF the
