The Washington herald., 1909-11-06


tice yesterday afternoon. in preparation
for the Carlisle game. which will be
called to-day at 8 p. m. at American
League Park. The men were put through
stir signal drill, and worked together
better than they have at any time this
season. Good team work may be eN-
pected to-day. and every man on the
eleven IS in frst-class condition. Whyt-
ing. who has been in the hospital all
week. on account OF injuries received in
the Ursinus game last Saturday, was out
yesterday afternoon getting the ends in
proper shape and giving them instruc-
tons on how TO block the heavy Carlisle
ends and get down the field on punts.
Whyting is in pretty good shape. having
received eficacious treatment at the
hands OF the doctors al the George Wash
ington University Hospital
Hard Game Expected.
Every man on the team expects a hard
game and they are all primed. and the
team IS confident Of coming out OF the
struggle covered with glory. Brandt at
center has improved remarkably, and
Fowler and Eickhoff at the guard posi-
lions can be depended upon 10 give the
opposing Indians the game Of their lives.
Everybody knows what Hart can do at
tackle. and the Indian that opposes him
will know he has been in "A game. also
some OF the backs when they try their
end runs around his way. Aston at
the other tackle picked up q few points
in the game against Ursinus last Satur-
day. and he may be depended upon 20
take care OF his position and get down
the field fast on punts
White. Bayliss. Hamlin, and Whyting
will probably all get chance at the end
positions to-day White is a fast man
and knows the game Thoroughly AL
though he IS a little Hight lie shows
clearly tine benefit Of coaching received
under StaSg at Chicago
Hamlin has done good work In pre-
vlous games this year. and Bayliss is a
new man. out this week for the first
tirne. but he has shown up so well in
practice. both at end and as half back
that he VIII probably be held in reserve
to fill either OF these positions.
Morse May Spring Surprise.
Morse. al quarter back. can be relied
upon 20 use all the strategy OF the In
dian In running the team. and his indi-
vidual work in running back kicks. max
ing end runs. and drop-kicking need no
comments, as those who have seen him
work this year know that ne Will deliver
the goods.
Crafts. after a week OF sickness. has
been out Tor practice all this week and
is in fine condition for the game. and his
presence In the bacluleld adds 90 per
cent to George Washing,On's chances FOR
scoring.
Good. old steady Ellis at half back
Will be in every play, and when he hits
the line or starts an end run with the
interference working together as II did
yesterday afternoon. the Indians Will
have 90 60 hard 20 get him, as he is one
OF the best men I'm the South keeping his
feet. and he IS hard 70 down.
Farmer. at full back has improved
wonderfully. and IS very speedy for a
man with such short legs, He IS a hard
worker and in every play.
| a number OF new plays have been per
/ fected during the past week. and Quar-
/ ter Back Morse is liable 20 pull or some
I PLAYS that the Indians never saw before.
Coach Warner win put on the field tht
! heaviest team that has represented Car
! Isle this year, having shifted his heavy
tackles to the end positions and filled in
the tackle places with other heavy men.
