New York, Oct. 23-Depriyed from becoming
members of any Of the varsity athletic teams,
the freshmen at both Yale and Harvard have
arranged to hold a dual meet next May. The
Harvard beginners will hold a meeting tomor-

ELIGIBILITY OUT

BY O'Louqhlln.

The worry over eligibility of Minnesota foot
ball players Is at an end. 1t Is now known just
who can and who cannot play football this sea-
son. Three men have been lost to the squad,
and all Of them valuable. They were Maloney,
Woodrick and K1ser.
Maloney had been trying for the end, and
was u strong candidate. He is splendidly
built chap of fair weight, good speed and
kicker Of no small value. He has played socker
and was especially good in handling the ball.
Woodrick another candidate for end who
had all sorts of speed. He won his track "M''
at hurdling, and was showing up in fair shape
this fall for football The work was new to
him in some respects, but he was working hard
to get place the team and win a gridiron

The faculty forbid these fellows the right
to play, mad their loss to the squad will be felt
There are manpy other candidates for end,
however, and the dropping out Of this trio will
mean that the other candidates will develop
still livelier fight for the other position. There
are good men out to play the other end OF the
line opposite Marshall, and the scrap for the
position is to develop the safest and best
man.
The veterans were successful in every IN
stance In getting rid Of the membranes to
their play. This will be cheering news to the
rooters as it feared that there would be
losses Of star men at the last moment With

a question of the gophers getting down to cases
on the practice and removing the crudeness and
of the play 1t is going to require team work
to defeat Ames, and 1t will have to be devel
oped this week.
The upset Of Nebraska by Ames has caused
more comment locally than has any other game
In several seasons. 1t had been expected that
Ames, the first game Of the season, would be
rather easy. Today is looks to be one of the
most important Of the year. The rotoers think
Minnesota will have to defeat Ames decisively
