GOEBEL AT TACKLE Yale's Giant Guard Shifted for First Time Since Enter
 ing College. C00NEY IN AT GUARD Murphy's Onside Kick and Kilpatricks Run Result in Touchdown
 by Varsity.

Though in general satisfied with the work of the Yale team in the game against Syracuse last Saturday, the coaches of the team have decided to try q few experiments in shifting the men and yesterday the first of these took place. Goebel, who has played right guard ever since he first stepped on Yale field, first on the freshman team and then all last year on the varsity team, was shifted to right tac- kle, the place occupied by Captain Bigelow last year. Cooney, who has been playing right tackle, went to right guard. The position of guard is now new to him. he having played left guard on the varsity the greater part of last year. Gosbel is a little uncertain on his feet in getting a start. and if this can be overcome he will make q great tackle. If not he will be shifted back to guard. It is un-

 Bingham was put in at quarterback on the first team yesterday and Hop kns went in on the second. This change is not permanent one, but is merely to give both men a chance for | 41. t. .t..A ability that to-day either Murphy or Philbln will be tried at quarterback. Murphy has tho best head of any man in the backfleld since the graduation of Tad Jones and Philbin has other qualities which would make him a good quarterback. Murphy is the coolest proposition and in this respect both are superior to Wheaton who has been tried out lately. If one of these men does go to quarterback Brides will not play in the line this year. but will go to half back. the place he played last year. He was at the field yesterday for the second time this season and played halfback on the second team. To-day he will probably be shifted to the first as yesterday the varsity had very hard work to gain against him and Daly who put up the main defense against the onslaughts of the first team.
 The varsity scored twice, but neith- CT time by line plunging or by regular, team play. From the center of the field Murphy made beautiful onside kick, which was recovered thirty yards away by Fitzpatrick and taken In very good run across the line. The second was made after Tad Jones had gone in at quarter on the scrubs. Jones made several advances for the team and then tried the forward pass. 1t was intercepted by Lynn, who had ta- ken Murphy's place on the varsity and Lynn made a long run. scoring. This ended the scrimmaging. -
