Jaybird Made the Trip.

From the Louisville Courier-Journal.
 "Jaybirds may not go to hell on Fri day, according to the common supersti- tion, but I know of one case that is peculiar, to say the least" said George Persons of St. Louis, who was at the Louisville hotel last night.
 You know it is said that the jay birds go to hell every Friday to take birthstone to the devil. I know that l lived in a jay-country before l went to the city, and have never yet seen a jay on Friday. will not say that they go to the lower regions to wait on his satanic majesty; maybe they do not. but I believe one jaybird did go there. I mad a pet jay once and was fond of him He was bright and interesting and had as much sense as human be- ing. One winter day, 1t was on Fri day. the window was open for mo- ment and he flew out. The thermom- eter was down below zero. and it was as bad a day as one could imagine. l

SNAPPY PRACTICE

At North Side the cripples are getting back
into the game: Captain Marks is now, the only
covering and should be in shape to play in the
big games. Coach Nye is giving the squad ad-
vanced football, and intricate plays will
be sprung on the Hamline medics Friday. The
doctors are a little heavier than the North
Side team, but, judging from their game with
St. Thomas last Saturday, do not play as ad-
vanced football. This should make the odds
about even and assure game worth seeing.
East Side does not have a game this week,
but this is not at all displeasing to Coach
Wyman who Is glad of the chance to whip his
into another contest. Martin, the fast quarter,
is still out with sDrained ankle. but is i'm
proving rapidly. He was able to run thru

BY l.. L. Collins.

With their ranks sadly thinned by sickness,
injuries and parental objection to the game,
Sig Harris freshmen warriors are making siren
uous efforts to attain enough football proficiency
to defeat the team of the North Dakota Agri-

a hard one, but the freshmen realize this and are
pounding away with determination that is

SCRUBS SHOW UP
BADGER DEFENSE:
Make Repeated Gains Thru Line,
Causing Woe to King
and Holt.
Journal Special Service.

-, Madison. Wis, Oct 1.-THE Wisconsin foot
ball squad was put thru hard, fast practice
last night, having drilled especially on defense
and heavy mass plays. The varsity was first
put thru fast signal practice, during which
Captain Vanderboom, who had his cheekbone
broken in the Marinette game. was in at left
half, and showed his old time form. Wrabetz
was in at the other half and Roseth was at full
back.
A scrimmage of twenty minutes duration
followed the preliminary practice. The scrubs
bucked the patched-up line Of the varsity for
repeated gains, carrying the ball three diff
ferent times close to their opponents goal line
During the first few minutes Of scrimmage
kuehmsted, who was playing quarter on the
scrubs, tried drop kick from the 1O-yard line
of the varsity, but missed by small margin
a brisk breeze making the kick a very difficult
one.
Coaches King and Holt were anything but
pleased with the showing Of the men, tho the
latter showed more snap than at any time this
fall, the weather being just cold enough for
fast work.
Coaches King ana Holt have issued a strong
appeal to the student body to furnish more men
and show more of the. old time Wisconsin
fighting spirit. Two weeks ago a massmeeting
was held to bring out more candidates and to
arouse more spirit. For few days the effect
Of that meeting was visible, but it has appa-
rently subsidized.
