STIFF WORK FOR BROWN,

Coach Robinson put the Brown squad
through stiff practice yesterday afternoon
despite the heat. All OF the players have
recovered from their slight injuries re-
ceived In Saturdays contest and should
be In the best physical condition by Sat
urday. The tendency to tumble. which
has been so prevalent for the last few
days. was not very noticeable YESTERDAY.
The backs chung TO the ball well both in
receiving kicks and while running with
the ball. Since Cobb has been plsved at
halfback and Savage at full the back field
has been improved greatly. having lost
none OF Its speed while increasing in
weight. During the workout yesterday
the ends got down under the kick quickly
and seldom missed throwing the back.
Cobb Ehmke and Thomas were ALI
tried as punters. After considerable pre-
iiminary signal practice The varsity and
scrubs lined UP for a short scrimmage.
During the % minutes OF fast play the
varsity scored one touchdown on the
scrubs Very seldom were the men on
the fret team held In check! HIgrin,
Savage and Walsh tore up the scrub line
for 10 and 12-ysrd gains or the half
hacks. Walsh played the best game. On
several plays the scrubs made substantial
advances. The tscklIng on both sides
was for the most part excellent, being

SECRET PRACTICE.

In preparation for the West Point game
on Saturday Yale held her first secret
practice yesterday afternoon. Yale is AL
ready figuring on how many points she
viii be able 10 make against the Cadets
Someone at the Yale Field yesterday de-
clared that Yale would be good for two
touchdowns. while someone else threw a
dash OF cold water on this estimate nv
limiting that maybe Yale would come out
OF the scrap without any score.
The secret work was OF an hour 8
length, and then the public had a chance
to see the Yale warriors. Profiting by the
Harvard experience Of last Saturday.
when the only scoring done in the game
was placement kick. Bowman was kept
a. field goal-kicking the entire afternoon,
working with Rockwell The kicking
was from the 40-yard line. Bowman's
splendid work in directing the distance
make him almost a certainty for part OF
the West Point game. There were about
ten coaches on the field. including Brink
Thorne
The Cornell Varsity was given a fierce
drill on the defence yesterday. The
scrubs were given the ball on the Var
sity's flve-yard line and the regulars at
tempted to hold the second eleven. They
could not do It, however. and Ave success
sive times the scrubs pushed over for
touchdowns. The pigskin was then put
into the hands OF the Varsity and the
scene OF scrimmage changed To midneld.
But the second team proved equally
strong on the defence. for the varsity
had not scored when the quitting hour
arrived. All this was evidence that the
varsity had taken decided slump.
Their defence is known to be weak. but
the showing was much poorer than any
one expected.
The Orange and Black eleven practiced
behind closed doors yesterday for the
first time this season. The authorities
report the practice as very unsatisfac-
tory. Neither side scored. but the scrub
rushed the ball down within the danger
lipe OF the varsity goal.
Princeton's new bleachers are nearing
completion and will accommodate much
greater crowd that has ever before been
handled here. II Is estimated that be-
tween 1900 and 5000 people will at
tend.
IL was the second eleven's day In the
daily practice OF the Harvard varsity
squad on Soldiers field yesterday after
noon. The scrub scored twice. while the
varsity scored but once. The work OF
the varsity was ragged and poor
throughout II could not hold the second
eleven once they got inside the 8-yard
line But the practice was full OF SEN
sational features in spite OF the unsatis-
factory work
On the first kick-off Captain Hurley ran
from the varsity ten-yard line for a
touchdown behind good interference. In
which Herman did some excellent work.
The seconds first touchdown was made
by steady rushing, while the second was
made when Pope gathered In tumble
