MURPHYIN QUARTER
Recovers from His Injury Far Enough to General Yale
 Football Team.
TED LILLEY IS INJURED
Jack Owslcy Comes from Pacific Coast to Coach Yale Team for Its
 Final Games.

Following the runaway game against the Massachusetts Agricultural college of Saturday, the members of the Yale varsity football eleven were not given very strenuous work yesterday For them there was long signal practice and snort scrimmage, with some of the regulars out, in which new plays were tried and line breaking rather than scores attempted This practice was followed by scrlmmage between some of the varsity men against a scrub team and the varsity made two touchdowns. Murphy, who was at quarterback for the varsity, made a 50-yard run and a touchdown, and the other was made by Holt after line bucking in which Brides and Coy fig ured for the plunges.
 Murphy was back in the lineup yes- terday for the first time in two weeks. He was little stiff, and has not en- tirely recovered from the Injury to his hip But his work was superior to any which has been seen at the field since he was hurt, and ne Is sure of the position of regular quarterback unless hurt again Neither Bingham or Corey is of varsity calibre and Hopkins has been debarred on ac- count of his studies by the Shelf. fac ulty Murphy ran the team well yes terday and seemed to give new life to the baekneld.
 For the second team Carter played a star game at tackle, and the feature of the scrimmage was an S0-yard run hy him after he had intercepted a varsity forward pass. Carter went through broken field and was tackled on the 5-yard line.
 Ted Lilley played tackle yesterday and was so injured that he will be out of the game for several days. He spraned his ankle slightly and in ad- ihtlon to this pulled a tendon Lil- leys injury If 1t proves serious, will he severe on the Yale team. as he is the best substitute tackle. He played very good game against West Point three weeks ago.
 Jack Owsley, who has been coach. ing the University of oregon team with Bob Forbes and Foster Rockwell has come east and was at Yale field yesterday afternoon. Owsley wal coach of Shevlin's championship elev. on Art Irwin was also out with the team as were Frank Hinkey and Frank s. Butterworth

Harry Lewis, the welterweIght champion of the world, has been sign ed by the members of the Edgewood 4. c and will appear here December IA in the card of boxing bouts that the club will put on at the Grand opera house on that evening. Who his opponent will be has not vet been definitely decided but that 1t will be either Mike" Donovan of Rochester or Willie Lewis of New York seems now to be almost a certainty.
 The bout will probably go twelve rounds and many of the local sports would like to see a match between Mike" Donovan and the champion as the two have met before in Philadei- phia in q six round bout.
 As a preliminary to the main bout it Is hoped that Jeff. Doherty, the To- cal scrapper. will be matched against some New Yorker, presumably Marto or Sullivan Dave" Sullivan the local referee, will officiate at the cere- monies, undoubtedly

A HIGH ELEVEN?
Eight N II. II. s. Disqualified on Ac-
 count of Deficiencies in Studies.

The report of Saturdays game was received with great enthusiasm at the high school auditorium yesterday, and the prospects for a brilliant ending of the season of the N. H H S eleven were assured. when the much dreaded report cards made their debut at the close of school The little tales told the story and as a result eight players are barred from participating in the games the work Of the deficient students is made up or some satisfactory arrange ments are made with the instructors,
 Regular practice will be held this af- ternoon at Yale field for Captain Davis intends to keep the players in playns condition, despite the fact that they are al present barred from playing on any athletic teams Should the players be unable to fix up their studies, the chances for an eleven at the local school are very slim as a great part of those who were presented with dishonors are the best players of the team. There Is hope, however, that these men may be able to play in the highs next game.
 Gardner osborn, the sturdy right tackle of the N, H. H. $. team, who has been laid up with poisoning on the hand, will return to the game today and will probably take part in prac- tIce,,

 All reports contrary to the above statement are without one iota of truth, and are spread deliberately to blind honest voters. They are the last resort of desperate. vicious, un- scrupulous lot of political trcksters
