Tigers in Damp Practice.

PRINCETON n. j., October 3O.-The
final practice of the Tigers before the
clash with West Point Saturday was con-
Quoted under most unpropitious circum-
stances yesterday afternoon. A steady
downpour dampened the ardor of the
players. but in spite of the soggy condi-
tion of the field the veterans were driven
through two twenty-five minute scrim-
images with the second string.
In the second period Mccormick and
Harlan, the two stars of last years
eleven and Eddie" Hart, the brawny
freshman fullback. went into the scrub
back field and this trio proved all that
the varsity eleven could manage. The
second string carried the oval steadily
down the gridiron, and it was not until
they reached the 5-yard chalk that the
regulars defense braced and held for
downs. McCrohan played between Coke
and Read again and did splendidly. The
coaches say that the big fellow will get
into the West Point game. although his
ankle is likely to go back on him at any
moment.

STATESMAN FULL
OF ELECTION SPIRIT

BALTIMORE, October 3O.-A cor1bina-
ton Of adverse conditions, such as a poor
start and heavy track, assisted mate
rally In bringing about the defeat of
Trance at the Pimlico track yesterday
afternoon. This sturdy little daughter of
Ben Brush that has won eleven races this
year and frequently beaten Statesman,
while conceding him many pounds. had to
trail that colt home
The defeat of Trance was one of the
many surprises which hackers of form
experienced. With the filly and colt at
even weights by the scale racegoers were
nearly unanimous that only an accident
could bring about the defeat of Trance
and eagerly accepted the to ) offered
against her by the forty-three bookmak
ers doing business here. The pair of
youngsters had the race practically to
themselves, for they were the contenders
released the barrier there was practically
only one horse in the race-Statesman. He
beat the start in running style by four
lengths and try as she would Trance
never was able to make up the lost
ground and was compelled to chase
Statesman and accept the mud cast up by
his flying heels from start to finish.
In five OF the seven races the horses
that were first choice in the betting were
beaten. The only horses that brought fl
nancial aid to the players were Rufus at
to 10 in the fourth and Berkeley at to
2 in the sixth race
Another rainstorm ruined the track and
steeplechase course. The mud was ankle
deep.
Two steeplechases were run off. These

RAIN H1NDERs PRACTICE.
Georgetown Squad Forced to Work
Indoors.


The rain of the past two days has
proven itself most inopportune for the
Georgetown foot ball team. One of the
hardest games of the season Is to take
place next Tuesday. when thelocal lads go
up against Fordham in New York, and as
a victory will come only with hard work
the bunch is disappointed with this week.
weather On both Wednesday and yes
terday practice was held in the gym. In
such a place only signal work was posi-
BILE to be INDUCED in and even that under
a disadvantage.
Yesterday Coach Newman wanted to get
out on the field the worst way, but the
rain kept coming down so fast that he
decided it best to remain under shelter.
He kept his crowd going until 4:3o O'Clock,
during which time he taught them many
new plays. AS an ending he sent them
around the gym track for about ten laps.
or in distance. nearly half a mile.
But all this. though 1t helps in perfect
ing team work. does not do much good
as far as conditioning the men is con-
cerned. What they need now Is some good
hard scrimmaging. and 1t Is a safe bet
that they will make up for lost time as
soon as the clouds clear away.
All the men injured In the North Caro-
lima game have gotten back except Cum
milf His shoulder Is still pretty sore and
he will probably be kept out until Sunday
at least.
Manager Lynch announced last night
that he was endeavoring to get a game
with the University of Maryland for No
vember I. This was the date originally
filled by Catholic University. Last year
the Marylanders made 1t hot for the boys
on the hill and 1t was only after the
hardest kind of fighting that victory
was finally obtained. From all reports
they have as good a team this year and
hence should be able to make 1t interest
ing for Georgetown.
AS the date is just seven days before
the Virginia contest and as the game will
be the only chance between now and the
big battle for the followers of the Blue
and Gray to see their eleven in action It
should prove crowd drawer as we'll as
an interesting struggle.

HOW THE Ell EVENS LOOK ON THEIR PRESENT FORM.

knocked all the malaria out of Mike
Murphy's system If he is out in foot ball
jeans every afternoon playing on the sec
ond team, as reported in Philadelphia
dispatches.
This has been a bad year for foot ball
captains at Harvard. Yale. Princeton and
Penn. Burr. Burch. Dillon and Hollen-
Harvard is the most fortunate as Burr s
indisposition has been only a cold.
The Carlisle Indians line was not as
fast in starting as the lines Warner set
up last year The Indians speed all round
has been slow in coming. but at the open
ing of the season the coach said that by
the Harvard game he would have a better
team than that of 1907.
It Is to be hoped that Campbell Is
given at once a little more material from
among Harvard's wealth of back field
timber from which to manufacture a few
ends. About week before the Yale
game he will be given anybody he wants,
but 1t will be too late then.
It is becoming a general belief among
foot ball fans who have seen the impor-
tant games so far that all the big col
leges are holding back everything that is
at all new. Certainly the games SO far
have shown absolutely nothing of any
development in the manner of attack.
Coach Waterbury has splendid oppor-
tunity to make a great eleven out of Har-
wards freshmen material. The boys play
this year about the way Jimmy Knox's
teams used to play. Ten years ago this
fall Dave Campbell was captain of the
Harvard freshmen team that beat Yale
g to In the rain at New Haven.
Nourse, Harvards center. says he did
not steal the ball from Richardson of the
Navy team Saturday. but that Dunlop
came through on the MILDLY out of whose
arms the ball was knocked Nourse says
the first thing he knew about the ball was
when 1t hit him on the chest and fell into
his arms. What Nourse did then is a
matter of history

HATCHETITES TACKLE
MARYLAND TOMORROW

Imbued with a commence that lt Will
be hard for a team of any caliber to
shake because Of their brilliant work
against the great Navy eleven. the speedy
George Washington team will measure
strength tomorrow with the heavy eleven
representing the University of Maryland
at American League Park at PM AS
this is the only game played in Wash
ington tomorrow an exceptionally large
crowd is sure to be In attendance, and
among these will be numerous foot ball
followers who have spent all season as
sorting that it Is impossible for the
Hatchetites to turn out good foot ball
team or that the team is bound to be
saffroned hued. They will be there In
the guse of the gentleman from Mis-
souri, and you can bet your last penny
that they will be shown all they are
looking for and some more.
Despite the fact that the team has had
very little opportunity to practice since
the Annapolis game on account Of the
extremely severe weather. they will enter
the game in fairly good condition as the
ception of few bruises as the result
of the hard game. Wednesday. 1t is
highly probable, however, that Coach
Nielsen will use Daugherty and Hamilton
in the backfield instead Of Crafts and
Ellis at the start, and IL they can stand
the pace. keep them there during most of,
the game. Both Daugherty and Hamilton
are very fast and hard players, and
gave the Navy all sorts of trouble last
Wednesday while they were working.
The game tomorrow will be the last
opportunity to get a line on the Hatch
cities before their first big home game
with Washington and Lee November Z
at American League Park, and as
large number Of students from the vir-
ginia College have signified their inten-
ton to be on, hand with plenty of coin
to put up on their team 1t is needless
to say that the easy money crowd will be
greatly interested in the work of the
Hatchetites.
The lineup of the teams will prob
ably be as follows:

ard of last year no easy task con1rohts

ever happened for Carlisle. ,
Pennsylvania has game with McLi-
gan and another with Cornell. II the
Ithacans were as good as last year that

Quakers. In any event, 1t is assured that
the teams are not being forced this sea,

the preliminaries and obtain needed prac-
tfce, without playing their heads OIL.

was dispensed with for the members OF
the foot ball team yesterday. but the rest
of the cadets went through the usual
routine. In getting on the field early
much work was done before darkness set
in, and although the major portion OF the
work was signal practice and running
through formations the short lineup tnat
followed was full of snap.
The varsity scored one touchdown. Bae-
her making the score after the SCRUBS
had been rushed off their feet for forty
yards. 1t has been decided to use Kern
as quarterback In the Princeton game In
stead of Wood. who came out Of the hos.

That the results in foot ball this year
are at such wide variance with those OF
1907 that they call for unusual comment
3eems to be a little overdrawn.
On the contrary, the season of 1908 re
eembles that of 1907 in many respects.
Teams which are known to be made up
of powerful players who have not thor
pughly attained the highest degree Of skill
of which they are capable are not win
ming their games by one-sided scores. nor
Were they doing so last year. Sometimes
they have been fortunate if they were
able to tie their opponents.
Elevens from the smaller colleges. which
are forced more than the big fellows,
partly from desire to make the best pos
eible showing against the larger univer
ssities and partly for the reason that they
conclude their season early, so as to give
their players opportunity to witness the
games between the larger institutions, are
making much the same Roadway this year
that they were last.
This Years Work.
If ii would be fair to judge tie season
of 1905 on the strength OF the games
which have been played up to the present
time, there seems TO be particular rea-
son why il should not be fair. Yale may
be said TO be quite as strong as last year.
Princeton not so far advanced the Army
little behind its speed OF 1907. though
with promise of better things: Harvard
certainly better team than last year,
Pennsylvania better if the Indians are as
strong they were in 1907; Cornell not
up to the standard. more for lack of ma
1erial than for any other reason: Will
Iams much better eleven. Dartmouth
unquestionably powerful enough to be
watched very closely. and the Navy better
adapted for fast foot ball right now than
IL was in the October games of last sea-
son.
More than that, it might he added that
the Syracuse eleven is playing more
consistent game than il did in 1907 1t had
power last year but ii was displayed in
somewhat erratic fashion. Iii one game
the team would be very good. and in the
