AT THE GRAND.

The United States Marine band is
tc play an engagement at the Grand
in Davenport the evening Of Oct. 2.
There are many things which have
contributed toward making the United
States Marine band the greatest band
in the world. In the first place there
are but few changes in its personnel.
Many of its members have been play
ing in this organization from 20 TO so
years. Fully one-ha.f of its member
ship has been retained without
change for more than Is years. The
full membership of the band is about
20. OF these, some 20 who have
been members five years or less, are
known as recruits" and are left in
Washington when the band goes on
tour. for Lieutenant Santelmann takes
with him only the most experienced
musicians. Five mornings each week,
from 10 o'clock to u, the band re-
hearsals are held in the marine bar
racks, except on rare occasions when
the band is on tour. Such frequent
and thorough rehearsals are not held
by any other musical organization in
the world. The examination of appli-
cants for membership in the band is
of the most rigid character and none
but the most accomplished musicians
are ever accepted The band instru-
ments are the very best that money
can buy, for Uncle Sam is not stingy
in equipping his pet" musical organ
/ ization Thus it may be readily seen
that accepting none but the most thor
! ough musicians, equipping them only
with the very best quality Of instru-
ments, requiring rehearsais five days
out of every week in the year, and re-
tanning its personnel intact for a
long period of years under one of the
| greatest living band masters, the
; United States Marine band cannot be
surpassed by any similar organiza
/ ton in the world

coin again fell tails" scoring a dou-
bl eheader defeat Of Boston.
Coin tossing decisions were simple
as compared with the arguments
which followed the net business on
the program. Determined to abide by
his declaration that the Boston Amer
i"an league club should handle the
sale of tickets in its own way, Presi-
dent Johnson of the American league
had come to the meeting TO fight il
out. The discussion Of the much dis.
puted question. in which August Herr.
mann took the stand that the national
commission should have authority

in the positions they played last year.
These three are Bubbles" Paterson
at center Captain Thomson at ufll
and Craig at half. Paterson is look
ing better than ever, and that there
is no man on the squad capable Of
displacing Captain Thomson at his
old position goes without saying AAy
ore who watches Jimmie Craig, broth
er of Ralph Craig of Olympic fame,
viii not question his right to one OF
the halfback positions.
Carpet, another veteran, is looked
on to land a berth as Craig's running
mate. At half last year he proved to
be fast, hard to down and reason.
ably sure in picking holes in the line.
Pontius. by reason of his experience,
ought to have the call for one of the
tackle positions, and Glenn Quinn, who
played guard last season, looks like
a possibility for the other.
Among the newcomers there are
. several who look as if they would
make capable linemen. One of these
is Huggitt, who weighs 210 pounds
and made a favorable impression last
! year on the freshman eleven. Anoth
er is Traphagen, a 200-pounder, who
was without doubt the best lfnemar
on the fresh team last year.
Taken all in ALL Yost's squad looks
! good. He should be able to select &
] fast. heavy. aggressive line and {
/ speedy, though light, back field.

HIGH SCHOOL HAS
ATEAh SELECTED
Is Nicely Balanced Organization
and Gives Promise of
Development.

AS near as can now be ascertained,
the following lineup will battle for
the high school colors Saturday after
noon against the high school alumni
Whistler and Larkin; tackles, Sexton
and Tremann; guards, Forgy and
Gazetteer; center, Philbrook; quarter
back, Kipp; fullback, Willett, and half
backs, Gleason and Glass.
A slight change may be made in the
lineup between now and Saturday,
but it is not very likely. The varsity
gladiators have been tearing up the
gridiron for the past two weeks with
scrimmage and formation work. and
now work together with precision.

same sort of trouble in organizing
this years football eleven that is be-
ing experienced BY Princeton. The
Quakers have four sturdy veterans for
the back field, but the line is weak.
Jourdet and Young have relieved all
their anxieties at end, but the loss
or three center men and one tackle,
with no good material in sight, is far
from encouraging. Mccall and Kelli-
her will be able 10 take Morris place
at center. while Green ought to be
able TO get away with one of the posi-
tons vacated by WolfeTt aAd Findeis-
son. The most severe loss is that OF
Bell at tackle, whom appendicitis has
put out of the game.
Coaches believe that Pennsy's back
field viii be the best in the east Il
is composed of veterans: Captain
Mercer, one OF the best backs the
game ever produced. Quarterback
Minds and halfbacks Marshall and
Harrington. Marshall is touted as one
of the fastest men in football toys
From now on strenuous efforts will
be made on Franklin field to develop
d line capable of affording protec
ton TO what promises to be a bach
field of high class.

Princeton, y. j., Sept. 2S.-With a
strong back field made up principally
Of veterans. the most troublesome
Rridiro1 difficulty that confronts
Princeton at this time is the neces-
siry of rebuilding the forward line.
The entire left side Of the line. in
addition TO the right tackle, was TAX
en- by graduation. Princeton coaches
realize the seriousness Of the situa-
ton. but as yet are unable 10 tell
how well the new men will fill the
vacancies.
The Tigers have every reason to be
satisfied with the out.ook in the back
field. Here there are three veterans:
Captain Pendleton, who is TO play a
halfback position this fall iastead OF
quarterback. and Baker and De Witt,
halfback and fullbacx Emmons. who
played quarterback on his freshman
team last fall will have first consid-
Grafton for this berth on the 1912
eleven.
Wilson and Duff, both members o.
last years team, have been given the
job Of deve oping a new line They
are having trouble in getting the right
sort OF men. They are forewarned
that the sort Of game they must meet
from Yale and Harvard will be the

it never again would engage in an
interleague series unless its club was
given control of the ticket selling in

termination, Secretary Mercy of the

whose hands he purposed to pace the
much coveted worlds series admis-
sion cards.
