Director.
tBy Telegraph to The Tribune. J

Hanover, ~ H., Nov 22.--The appoint
ment Of Walter Sydney Woods by the Dart
mouth Athletic Council as coach for the
baseball team I'm 1911 was announced this
evening Mr.. Woods becomes the successor
OF Tom Ready, who retired last year after
three successful seasons with the team.
Seventeen years Of professional expert
ence gives the new coach a broad founda-
ton to train the college nine. He has
PLAYED every position and has a thorough
knowledge of all the fine points in the
game. He comes TO Dartmouth from the
Troy club, Of the New York State League,
of which he is now a member. AS a pro
fessional player he has had an unusual rec

cradle experience in football, basketball
and as a swimming instructor.

BROWN WEAK ON OFFENCE
Varsity in Practice Fails to
Break Freshman Line.

Providence, Nov. 22.-The Brown varsity
was hurled against the sturdy freshman
eleven to-day in practice. The coaches
sent the regulars through one Of the stiff
est drills that they have had in weeks. In
general the work Of the varsity was rather
unsatisfactory, although the team put over
a couple Of tQuchdowns on the freshmen i'm
the scTimmagc
Although the backs and ends showed
we'll for the most part the line did not
measure up to the demands of the coaches,
falling time and again TO open up holes
properly i'm the freshman defence WenC-
worth was given try at left halfback and
he gave such 4 good account OF himself
as To insure his becoming a fixture in that
berth until Tc1ney gets into gear again,
which will not be until after the Trinity
game.

Lioht Practice for Harvard.

iRy telegraph to The Trihunel
Cambridge, Mass, Nov. 22-What foot
bail there was on Soldiers Field this after
noon was brisk, but the regulars scrim-
mage against the substitutes lasted only
ten minutes 40 attempt was made to
score. much omen play being tried and tho
kickcrs. Potter and FELTON,, doing lot Of
work. Potter was at quarterback I'm the
scrimmagc.f lie was as fast as ever, and
did not have to favor his leg. His punts
we're long and his onside kicks well di-
rccted.
Potter, beyond Goubt, will be the man to
start the Yale game at quarterback, al
though the coaches are not confident that
ne will be able 20 last long. Gardner has
been coming along so fast, however, that
Fotter's loss would not be so serious as it
was believed it would be when he was hurt
FELTON, was at right end and was active
lie did some kicking, and apparently was
as good as before he was hurt. He has
not beer allowed TO extend himself how
ever, and IT is not certain that he will be
expected TO do all the kicking against Yale.
The coaches say that the placing of Par
menter at centre and the return Of Hunt
ington to the bacSheld are permanent
There is little difference I'm the size of the
two men. botn Weighing 10 pounds or less
Parmenter is new at centre. but Hunting
ton is needed I'm the backfcld attack, and
Of course Storer is a fixture at tackle.
Campbell who has been playing left half
back right along, may not start the Yale
game. Reynolds. who is heavier, probably
will begin the game. and that the coaches
plan to use him first may be taken. per-
haps TO indicate that Harvard intends to
start the battle prepared to play its hard
est and best rushing game.
After the scrimmage to-day the varsity
men ran through signals for thirty min
utes the lineup being as II doubtless will
be against Yale Smith and FELTON, were
the ends. Hitchcock and Storcr the tackles,
Fisher and Leslie the guards, Parmenter
centre, Potter quarterback. Campbell and
Wendell halfbacks, and Huntington full
back
Tomorrow the team will have its last Sc
crct practice and Friday the Stadium seats
Will be crowded with students and hun
dreds Of old Harvard men who already
have come TO the battlefield. Friday night.

Several touring cars have been engaged TO

This evening the assembly hall in the
