touchdowns were scored by the Yale
varsity foot ball team yesterday in the
last hard scrimmage with the scrub team

Tigers Fast and snappy In Rain.

PRINCETON. N. j., November 5.-A
cold rain fell during most OF the scrim-
mage period yesterday afternoon, and the
wet ball caused a number of fumbles.
The practice. however. was fast and snap
py, and the varsity scored six touch
downs through the scrubs-Cunningham
two, Hart, Garrett. Christie and Sparks
each one. All the regulars were out for
the first time this week. and everybody
got into the scrimmage. with the ex-
ception of Capt. Siegling. The latter
Joined the coaches for q change. The
coaches gave the varsity defense a severe
test by giving the ball to the scrub on
the varsity 1O-yard line This was re-
peated twelve times, and each time the
scrubs were held for downs. The ends
again showed up we'll. Four men were
used. WEIGH. Ballin. Gill and King, and
all played q steady game. Instead of
holding secret practice this week, the foot
ball management has given the freedom
of the field to students, with the result
that the entire body lines up around the
side lines every afternoon. This is the
first season this has been done.

Light Work for Pennsy.

PHILADELPHIA, November Moth
ing but the lightest work was allowed the
University of Pennsylvania foot hall elev-
en- yesterday. Expecting hard game
with Lafayette, the coaches eliminated
all scrimmaging, and took the men back
TO the rudiments Of the game. Particular
stress was laid on clean handling, the
men running about the field passing the
ball to each other.
Another feature Of the practice was a
long drill In running back kicks. The
proper formation for this with the men
stationed that the hest runners and
surest catchers play back. regardless Of
their regular positions, is a hobby of
Smith. the head coach.
II was announced last night that Scott
would start the game at fullback tomor-
row instead OF Hutchinson. II is not yet
certain that the latter will he used at all.
Harvard Slows Up.
CAMBRIDGE Mass, November 1.-The
work OF the Harvard foot ball team In
scrimmage with the scrub yesterday was
Disappointing. The second eleven used
Cornell formations and the first team
made a sorry showing In defensive work
one of the varsity backs dropped a punt
AT midheld. which was recovered by Cliff
ford for the scrub. Next a successful for
ward pass was not stopped until the 10
yard line was reached, and Tryon went
over in two PUSHES through the left wing
The first team scored repeatedly later
but could not fathom trick plays. and a
line plunge on a fake kick formation was
good for Il +-yard gain each time IL was
tired.
Leslie was replaced by rockingham a,

The Boil WetrH.

We have heard and read a good
deal about the Boil Weevil, and
after having studied the reports of
the scientists we thought we were
certainly v master of the situation,
but recent developments concern
ing this pest, leave us under the
impression that those who have
been talking and instructing US
concerning the weevil dld not
know more than we did.
We were told to burn the stalks
before the weevils went to their
hibernating quarters.
Capt Marsden of Shreveport
has demonstrated the past week
that the weevil does not hibernate.
Those he boxed and bottled in the
fall, after remaining three months
without food or water, were as
lively as the day they were cap
ture,l, and when fed on young cot
ton grown IN hot rooms by the
Captain, the weevils showed a
good appetite. This proves that
they do not hibernate.
Others said that the cold wealth
er will DESTROY nearly all of the
weevil we now have, a winter will
leave only very few to attack the
coming crop; but the report comes
TO us that Dr. Clarence Pierson,
Superintendent Of the Insane
Asylum at Jackson placed some
weevis in a bottle full Of water,
put the bottle in a can of the Asy-
lum ice factory and the bottle
was frozen in a solid block of ice.
Forty eight hours after the ice
was put in the sun to thaw, and
when the bottle was emptied, the
weevils were AS lively as before
they went through the freezing
process. This is proof that ice ol
cold weather will not kill the wee
vii.
Now we have the reports of the
planters, whom we must believ,
to be true, that the weevils at thi'
