Dummy Scrimmaec for Cornell

Ithaca. y. y oct 95.-The football prac-
tice to-day bore a marked similarity TO
that Of Yesterday afternoon but for the
fact that in the dummy scrimmage which
occupied the greater part Of the session
the varsity backs played with the scrubs
this giving the varsity line a good, hard
workout in defensive playing.
The general appearance Of the line to-day
was effective i'm making holes in the scrubs
Yesterday II failed TO hold together against
an attack to-day. which has been the aim
of the coaches ON the whole, however.
the weave Of the line is much closer than II
was a week ago. which is grain of en-
couragement for the coaches. Munk is out
for the second time I'm ten days, and natu-
rally is not himself Whyte is suffering
from an injured hand, and Munns was re-
placed by Delano on account Of slight
injury to-day.
The backfeld was handled by Trainer
Butler and Smith are out of the game for
few DAYS. and Gass. the third quarterback,
has a bad foot Hawkins and Collins
PLAYED the halves and Underhiil fullback.
II developed to-day that Zeller's hand is in
worse condition than was thought TO be the
case. lie will have TO remain on the side
lines for several days. 1t is not likely that
there will be much hard work before the
Pittsburgh game on Saturday.
Lafayette's Interference Weak.
Easton, Penn, oct. 25.-Dr. Newton and
the Lafayette squad are working hard on
preparations for the game with the Car
Isle Indians on Saturday next BY most
critics this game is considered the hardest
on the Maroon and White schedule. not
excluding that with the University of Penn
sylyania one week later. The Indians are
better this year than they have been for
some time, and the showing they made
against the University of Pittsburgh on
Saturday bore out all that has been said of
them.
The game with Syracuse brought out sew
eral weak points in the Lafayette team.
The Interference is miserably weak. and
some OF the men arc holding. DR.. Newton
will hammer at these weaknesses and de-
velop new offensive plays especially suited
to the red men. Spiegel continues playing
a. phenomenal game, and is without doubt
one OF the greatest halfbacks in the coun-
try A new man i'm the squad, who looks
as though he would be a valuable asset is
