OF Harrisburg; Frank S, Butterworth
and Brnke Thorne, were on the field
yesterday, They drove the varsity and
scrubs, getting them in shape for the
vitrollc coaching of Frank Hinkey next
Wednesday.
The varsity made three t%ouchdowns.
The first was made by Captain Coy
after a run around end for forty yards.
The second touchdown was made by
Halfbaek Robinson and the third
touchdown my Harry Holt, who played
the other halfback. The two last
touchdowns were made as the result of
straight. ld-fashioned plunges through
the scrub line. The varsity line did not
hold well against the scrubs. Savage,
Francis and Field all were able to get
through and the quick work of Lilley
was the only thing which kept Johnson
from scoring goals from drop-kioks.
Lilley stopped w of these and also
spoiled the effectiveness of a couple Of
on-side kicks.
PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 29.-The Uni
versity of Pennsylvania football team
and its substitutes are at Winslow
Junction, to remain until tomorrow
morning. The purpose of the coaches In
arranging this trip was TO give the
players a change of air and scene, in
the hope that it would put more snap
into them for the annual game with
the Carlisle Indians on Saturday.
As soon as the players reached Wins
Junction yesterday afternoon they
were sent through a brief signal drill,
in which all the new plays We're tried.
Smith announced before leaving that
there would be no more s"criniinaging
before the Indians are met. The team
viii have Il short signal drill today, and
then AXE a walk through h pines.
CAMBRIDGE, Mass. Oct. 29.-The
Harvard varsity was given a half hour
of light work yesterday afternoon.
The usual preliminary drill was gone
through, ending with signal practise.
Much of the time was given to perfect
ing trick formations for later use.

the West Point contest, will hardly lose

with less experience and lighter in
weight than his nearest rivals, Perkins
and DUNLAP, the former oarsman seems
to have no trouble holding his own.
ITHACA, n. Y, Oct. 29.-In the last
serimmage before the Williams
game Cornell did not do well
yesterday. The practise was secret and
the coaches did their best to drive the
men, but their efforts seemed In vain.
A scrlmmage was held in which the reg
ulars were allowed possession of the
leather all the time. The scrubs were
instructed to use their best efforts in
breaking up varsity plays, Baker, the
clever varsity quarterback, was many
times downed by scrub ends before he
had fairly started on quarterback runs
Simson plunged the line with consider
able force, but the strong scrub back
field, composed of Robb, Hoffman and
Taylor, prevented. him from making
long gains. Trimpi, a scrub tackle, fire.
quently broke through the varsity line
and nailed Tydeman for losses. For
ward passes were often stolen, and the
only redeeming feature for the first
teams work was the manner in which
1t formed interference on simple forma-
lions.
