Commissioner Maltbie Of the Public Service COM
mission succeeded yesterday in getting irnpor-
tant contract from the New York City Railway
Company. which he will use in the investigation ot
the operation OF the Broadway surface line
Some time ago Commissioner NIaltbis was su-
thorfzed to inquire into the service OF the Broad

complaints. When he called representatives Of the
road before him he was surprised to learn that tho
New York City Railroad Company not the
operating company of the Broadway line. but that

This blocked the investigation for the time. and
until the contract between the two companies was
in the possession Of the commission nothing could
be done in the way Of an investigation. On receipt
of the contract the commissioner adjourned ths

enough to allow each coach to take a member OF
the varsity eleven in hand. The new arrivals were:
Clarence Weymouth. '03 George Adee. 80: Henry

have been here for time were eX-Captain

well, former head coaches Carl Flanders and Will
lam Knox.
Wheaton, who is in the college infrmary because
of his injury of Saturday, did not report and his
place taken by Phbin. quarterback of the
freshmen team last year.
The scrub caused upset in varsity plans by
scoring twice-once after taking the ball from mid
field for a touchdown. The biggest element in this
score a neat thirty-yard forward pass. Mark
Mitchell, who was the star of the afternoon. made
the touchdown a ten-yard plunge through the
centre.
Mitchell made the second touchdown, also on an
onside kick which the varsity refused 10 allow
The regulars scored a solitary touchdown toward
the close of practice. when Wyle was forced over
the line. II plain to-day that the second

of the improvement is attributed TO the fact that
the team played modern football instead OF the
old fashioned line buckng game. which was used al
most exclusively against Villa Nova
The work OF Regan az quarterback was the sur
prise Of last week. He gave an exhibition OF run
ming tackling and heady playing that would have
done justice 10 Stevenson. There is little doubt
that he will get the call Some surprise has been
expressed the failure OF the coaches TO use
ReEan at drop kicking in the games played. He
showed last year the freshman team and in
practice also that he is of the best drop kick
in the country. 1t seems the coaches don't
want the players get the idea that Regan can
do the scoring for them. on this account Regan
will not be used at drop kicking in any OF the
games unless absolutely necessary
