Penn's New Quarterback.

PHILADELPHIA. Pa. November g.
Pennsylvania's varsity is still in desperate
straits for want of a quarterback. Yester-
day afternoon the coaches took Lawrence,
who has been playing on the scrub. and
put him on the varsity side Of the field at
quarterback and he did very we'll. He was
more accurate in passing the ball for for
ward pass than any other man tried this
year.
Lawrence, like Keinath Is pretty sure on
catching punts and returning them. but he
has had no experience on a big team. He
and Keinath will be tried Saturday against
Lafayette and choice will be made for
the Michigan game. Lawrence has q good
record as basket ball player and 10 very
speedy, and this may advance his chances
Of getting into the big games.
The varsity lined up against the scrub
and succeeded. through the use Of tho for
ward pass and straight foot ball, in getting
two touchdowns. One of these was scored
by Hollenback. who played fullback, after
4O-yard plunge through the line. Fol-
well, who suffered broken hand in the
Indian game, was back on the field and
strengthened the back field.

Big Teams Hard at Work.

Hard work was continued yesterday after
noon by the leading foot ball teams for
their games of Saturday. Princeton retains
the changed lineup, keeping Stannard at
guard and Herring at tackle, alternating on
offense at center. The plan seems to work
well, and with Phillips back In the game
TO interchange with Herring seems a
marked Improvement. There now seems no
likelihood of any change in the back field
Princeton adherents believe they will give a
good account of themselves against West
Point.
The cadets. too are improving and with
the chance of Beavers being able to rejoin
the team there is every prospect of them
putting up better game than against Yale
wider repertoire of plays was practced
in attack, and careful attention is being
given to the protection of the kicker both
10 getting Kicks away and to gaining longer
distances.
The return OF Harvard's cripples to the
game improves the Crimson's outlook
against the Indians. 1t is believed with
the back field once more intact there will
be return to the former brilliancy In at
tack. which will be effective even against
such a capable defense as the Indians pre-
sent. The only fear that is felt is that
there may be mistakes in the back field
In handling kicks which. in view of Car
isles skillful following of the ball, may
nullify the advantages gained by the
stronger attack.
Yale coaches do not especially fear Brown.

was due to the failure Of Harvard's SUBJ

strength. The men having the team In

the return OF Roome will remedy the faults

George Washington Ready.

me last hard scrimmase of the George
washington team In preparation for the
Washington and Lee game tomorrow was
held yesterday afternoon. when Coach
Crowell had the men out in a hard twenty
minute workout. With the exception of
minor injuries all of the members of the
squad are in good condition and expect to
run up larger score against the south
erners than did the Georgetown team.
John Field, last years captain of the
Eastern High School team. and one of the
best half backs that has ever played on a
school team In this city. has been out with
the squad for the last few days and 1t is
1nought probable that Coach CHowel will
find place for him on the team as he has
shown up IN fine style. Senior, Kilgore and
Baliinger have also been out with the
squad.

Secret Practice for Yale,

NEW HAVEN. November s.-Another
day of hard practice in secret was put In
by the Yale squad yesterday. The coach
ers kept the candidates on the jump for
about half an hour at topmost speed and
the scrimmage was fierce while 1t was on.
AS usual the kicking bunch was worked
to the limit. and this department begins to
show some class. Practically all the regu-
lars got at the work with q vengeance.
and this will probably be the last hard day
until after the Brown game Saturday.
The way Roome is coming out Of his IN
jury is pleasing the coaches immensely.
He is now able to walk a couple Of miles
and the stiff leg Is limbering up fast. It Is
more than likely that he may do light prac-
tfce before the week ends, and may get
into all the line-ups for awhile each day
next week. This Is the wish and expecta-
ton OF the Yale handlers at this stage Of
the game.
The same big field Of extra coaches was
here yesterday and with an expert back Of
practically every man in the lineup the
pace cut was hot and the play furious. The
honors all went to the varsity. despite the
fierce attack and defense Of the scrubs.
