FOOT BALL NOTES

M IF
Penn's squad numbers A, just enough for
four elevens.
Marcus Hurley. who is hailed as a won

easy money playing summer ball are now
trying to become familiar with their real
names.
Dartmouth has a 24o-pounder in Dilling-
ham, who comes from Taunton. He will
be tried out at center.
1t looks like very interesting season, but
T. is trlhe early yet to begin to pick win
ners
Tom Shevlin is not liable to shift from
end 20 tackle. Yale will need him this year
in his old place. where he will be of the
most value to that thin blue line.
Phil King is back in harness as coach at
Wisconsin. Either he or Yost is likely to
find place on the rules committee Stage
of Yale and Chicago now be ng the only
western representative in that body.
Ex-Capt. Bill Edwards OF Princeton, who
will probably umpire the Harvard-Penn
game again this fall, is being sought by
Yale and Columbia for their game in New
York November 4.
1t now appears that Columbia, as well as
Harvard. expected that Draper of SPRING
field would be in line. It's small wonder
that the man didn't land at Cambridge
VIXEN the market was so lively.
They do wonderful things out west. Big
Ed Parry, right tackle Of the Chicago elev-
en-. went through In practice recently with
out his left shoe. The man opposite him
must have been very polite.
Pennsylvania has a Jap candidate out for
foot ball honors. His name is Shunzo Ia
kaki and he Is an expert on jiu-jitsu.
Walter Mccormack Is having hard time
to get team together at Northwestern. So
far most Of his candidates are small men,
| and there are few who have had any ex-
peIience.
Western men will be responsible for the
success or failure Of the Yale team this
year. Owsley Is Chicago man, Bloomer
halls from Cincinnati and Capt. Shevlin's
| home is in Minneapolis
Eekersall of Chicago University has
new wrinkle for kickers in the shape Of a
suuare-to ed shoe.
On paper Pennsylvania has bright pros
poets for landing on top.
Amos Foster, a western prophet, is the
frs: man to pick Harvard as a winner over
Yale. Mr.. Foster is coach Of the Cincinnati
University team, and he claims to have
de careful study of the eastern foot
ball situation
| The sailor boys at Annapolis have not a
| game scheduled with any of the big
-Four this year. Princeton. Penn and Yale
were usually on their schedule, but this
year, for unknown reasons, Annapolis Will
| corfne her efforts to the smaller colleges.
George Woodruff Is developing squad
of punters at Carlisle, which calls to mind
! that he had of the best in the business
at Pennsylvania when George Brooke was
| playing fulback on the Quaker eleven.
Harold Hfslop a candidate for end, Is
| the first Yale man to be placed on the hos
| ptal list He tumbled over another player
| while going down the field under a punt
and is laid up with a dislocated knee and
| badly strained leg muscle.
| Only a chosen few actually coach the
| players at Harvard this fall. There are
| other coaches, but they watch the work of
| the men and make all suggestions and critt-
| cisms to Head Coach Reid through one of
| the managers.
| The Carlisle Indians will do lot Of trav-
cling this fall They have games at Har-
| risburg, Richmond, Philadelphia, Cam
| bridge, Washington, Cincinnati and Pitts
| burg No two of these towns are made on
| the same trip, giving Woodruffs eleven
| about three days travel week for a sea-
sons average
| Whatever record Princeton may make for
| itself will probably be due in a large meas
ure more to its fighting qualities than to
! anything else. and to make q scrappy team
will be the purpose toward which the
| coaches will have to turn every energy.
| Every man in the line and behind 1t is as
| lean and active panther, and the team
play of each seems to give promise of
| splendid speed. The eleven as it is now con-
| stituted is follows: Right end. Tooker;
! right tackle, Herring; right guard, Raffer-
ty; center, Carruthers; left guard, Dillon;
| left tackle, Cooney; left end, Brasher; quar-
| ter-backs, Tenney and McClintock; left
