When the Belleville Catholic Club
visits the Xavier Catholic Club tonight
to open the ~latter's basketball season
they will be accompanied by a = band
of rooters who claim they will have OPP
portunities galore to demonstrate their
vocal strength.
The Bellevilles AVE a fast quintet
this season and are eager to wipe out
the defeat suffered at the hands OF the
locals last season. With Artie Conlon.
the former st. Benedict College and
Dominican A. A. star, and Pop Welsh
as teammates in the lineup, the
Xaviers feel that they will be stronger
than ever. The newcomers are taking
the place of Doyle and Pedrick, the
Jersey City athletes who wore the col
ors of the xaviers in 1908. The usual
reception will follow the game. The
lineup Of the teams will be as follows:
Xavier C. C.-Conlon and Ranch, for
wards; Harter, centre, and Curley. Welsh
and Cummings. guards. Belleville c. c.
War and Flynn, forwards; Daley
and Smith, centre, and Brickell and

an open secret here that other col
leges have signified their Willingness
to meet Princeton on the water, ana
that all the rowing association here is
waiting for faculty's approval be
fore taking up one of the offers next
Suing. For hat reason the rowing men
are working hard, showing that there
is enthusiasm and a general interest
in the sport mong the undergradu-
ates, and an effort will be made to
arrange a meeting with another uni
versity or college as soon as the
faculty becomes convinced that 1t will
be for the good of the university. An
intercollegiate race next spring with
Princeton one of the two contestants
is not beyond the limits.of imagination.
Under the influence of the new track
coach, Charles H. Wilson, late of Pur-
due. interest is kindling in track ath-
letics. Mr.. Wilson was met with sue
cess In his efforts on the track at the
Western institution, and in many re-
spects the problems there were the
same as they are at Princeton. Purdue
never displayed a great deal of real
interest in track sports. and in this
respect it was like the Jersey college;
but Mr.. Wilson's efforts to arouse in
terest are meeting with hearty re-
Spouse. He is trying to break down
the Indifference heretofore character
istic of the average students attitude
toward the track. and with this done
he Will undoubtedly make Princeton

Daily PrincetOnian Says La
fayette Game Was Loss,
Not Defeat"
PRINCETON. Oct. %.

PRINCETON, Oct. %.
THE varsity men, although none of
them were injured in Saturdays
game with Lafayette, will be
given nearly a complete rest today, in
stead of the usual scrimmage at daily
practise. In fact that policy may be
continued, in a greater or less degree,
throughout the week, because the show
ing OF the Navy, which will be the
Tigers opponent at Annapolis next
Saturday, has been bad in the last
three weeks, and it is at the present
time practically certain tina Prince
ton will have little difficulty with the
middies.
In spite of the fact that victory was
snatched from Princeton in the short
time that 1t takes a man to run 90
yards Saturday. the team and the
coaches are far from discouraged over
the showing made. Princeton played
a better game than she has previously
this season, and showed great improve
ment at so many points of the game
that 1t Utmost -compenSates for the
chance trick of fate that let Irmschler
loose with the ball in the last forty
five seconds of football play that had
ldSleu utdily oil iiouI' lHt Tigers JUL
played the Lafayette team at every
point, gaining 800 yards while the Ma
room and White gained less than 20.
One of the best points of the play
Saturday was the work of Bergin at
quarterback. He was as slippery as
Dillon used to be, almost, at running
back punts, and frequently redeemed
from 10 to 20 yards in this way for his
team. His generalship was good. and
he was remarkably successful in
launching the difficult forward passes
and onside kicks. 1t may be that he
used the backs too much in the middle
have been saved for the final punch
when the team had the ball within
twenty yards of the Lafayette goal. but
this is a fault, il a fault it is, that
a be corrected.
BALM and WEIGH surprised the
Princeton stands by the way they
played the end positions. The wings
have been a problem to h coaches for
weeks, and at last 1t seems to be near
ing solution. The backs played together
and on the whole displayed more speed
than they have heretofore. The eff
cheney Of the line, with the single ex-
ception Of the time that they let
Irmschler through to block Cunning
hams kick, cannot be questioned.

Never before have the Quaker players

game. and this In itself gives evidence
of the poor condition in which the men
are at the present time.
Where the men will be taken this
week is slightly doubtful. although it il
at present thought that they will go tc
Devon. and that practise will be held
on the golf links. This will be an ad.
vantage. and will comply with the
wishes of the coaches to get a place OF
training where a good change of air is
available and yet where the men will
not be far distant from the college.

PRINCETON VARSITY RESTS TODAY
AFTER SATURDAYS FIERCE BATTLE
A LOSS, NOT A DEFEAT.

The history of Princeton-La-
fayette football relations extends
back, with some Interruptions, to
1883. OF the nineteen games
which have been played in that
time Saturdays is the first that
has been won by Lafayette; two
have resulted in a tie score;~in
the remaining sixteen Lafayette
has scored only three times
while Princeton's average for
each game is so points.
The above will throw light upon
the following statement: Satur-
days score is merely the *
ception to prove the rule that
Princeton never is worried over
the outcome of the Lafayette
game.
There is by no means aay
cause for worry in the present
case. On the contrary, the
showing made by the team gives
every reason for encouragement.
In each case where weakness has
been heretofore apparent there
, was a decidd Improvement mani

EXPERTS WRITE FOR

SPORT SUBJECTS.
PRINCETON. Oct. %.

A ENCOURAGEMENT was made TO-
"A day by Captain Frank oper,
1910, of the soccer team, that II
had been arranged to play a at thae
English game on the morning OF the
Yale-Princeton football game. The con-
test will be played at New Haven, ana
will be the first of it's kind between
the two universities. The game Is
practically an innovation, but 1t Is
arousing interest and two or three
scores of candidates to the team, at
tracted by the possibility of playing
against Yale, reported to Captain ober
on Brokaw Field this afternoon.
The Yale Princeton game will prob
ably be the foundation for. an inter
collegiate series, Heretofore soccer
has not been raised to the dignity of
Al intercollegiate sport, in a general
way, and the Princeton team has occu-
pied itself with games with athletic
clubs, etc. Freshmen will be allowed
to participate In all games as, members
Of the varsity team except, of course,
all contests with other universities.
Soccer is not the only minor sport
that is struggling for what little of the
limelight' is not intercepted by the all
important football, for there are track
activities and rowing, the latter per-
haps in the lead, and even basketball,
at this early date, is attracting it's de-
voices to the floor of the gymnasium.
The crisp autumn days on the lake
are bringing joy into the work of the
men who practise rowing daily on Loeb
Carnegie. Last week, on one day,
there We're as many as eighty men out
in the shells, and working at the ma
chimes, under the direction of Pro-
fessor j. Duncan Spaeth, an old Penn
varsity oarsman, and rowing candi-
dates are fast mastering the rudiments
of the sport and are keenly interested
In preparing themselves for the inter-
class regatta on November 5-the day
before the football game with Dart
mouth. The sport is suffering some
what on account of the fact that many
eligible men, including Captain j.. C.
Van Dyke, of the varsity crew, are
working on the football field, and so
is Ransome, 1911.
