Philadelphia. Oct. 1.-THE coaches

them going until Penn's back field

long gains could not have been made

the present system there is a front
and a rear halfback, the latter being
Is yards behind the line. This leaves
only two men to back up the line in
stead of three, as under the old sys-
tenn Of defense.
The coaches now realize Cd that
they must have a quarterback upon
whom they can depend to take care Of
punts and who is a sure tackler, and
CD that their second line Of defense
must be strengthened. When these
problems are solved the coaches will
direct their attention to new forma-
tons for advancing the ball.
The plan for this week is to return
to the rudfments, and the squad will
be put through hammer and tongs''

on four times for a total of 2 2 points.
This is the poorest showing in years.

ries Of meetings held every noon in the
Minneapolis Produce Exchange.
The busy exchange hall has under
gone quick change in its character
each day. The center Of the north

and eggs have been chalked up in offer

quotation platform to all who would
accept, without price.
The meetings have been we'll attended
from their Inception. The exchange
hall has been given to the evangelist
free of expense, and he in return has
conducted his meetings, without any
financial return to himself and without
the taking Of any collections.
A small reed organ has been placed
on the hall rostrom for the meetings,
and Charles Jaybush has acted as Or
ganist. Clyde Decker has led in the
singing of hymns There has also been
considerable interest added to the meet
ings by the services Of special soloists.

will at the same time continue his noon

The produce exchange meetings have
