Brocklin. The former will be in the sig.
nal drill within a few days at the most,
while Tormey is expected to be back In
the game by the middle of the month.
Van Brocklin will not be out very long
from the reports at the Hill yesterday.
No Favoritism shown.
Coaches Gargan and Bennis played no
favorites yesterday, telling one and all
the same thing. The regulars of last
year were worked just as hard as the
newcomers, and the men all understand
that no one Is sure of his place on the
team The second team fought hard all
the time. and the practice yesterday was
pronounced one of the hardest of the
year, IL not the hardest.
Sam Foley worked several passes to
perfection and had 1t not been for the
varsity knowing the signals, at least a
trio more would have gone safe. This
afternoon the men will be put through
another hour of hard work, and the same
thing will be the menu Thursday. FRI
day a long signal drill will be on the
programme with the game with Mount
St Mary's Saturday.
Business Looks Good.
Coach Farmers Business High School
aggregation had a good workout yester-
day. and the Stenographers coach Is
confident of turning out a good team.
The only drawback In the outlook at
present is that several of the best men
have conditioned in their studies, and
unless these are gotten of. will not be
able to play the gridiron game.
Capt Schaefer Is showing up well in
the line, as is Harris and Derrick in the
back field. Barret is also putting up a
neat game. The game with the George
town Preps. scheduled for Friday on the
Prep gridirun has been cancelled by the
Stenographers The reason given Is the
lack of condition of the players, as they
nave been out a week.

Prospects Bright at Central.
Capt. King. of the Central High School
outfit. is leaving no stones unturned TO
give the O-Streeters fast aggregation,
one which will again win the scholastic
championship Although the champion
ship was not decided officially last year.
Centrars 12-to-O victory over the Tech
outfit really gave them the title.
Cart. King has a good bunch working
out every day. The team will be as

up strong for the quarter back position.

other team like the one OF l9l0-the one
coached by Charley DonneIly. the old

working the men hard every day, and
while he is not claiming any champion

PACKERS TRIAL
 NEARING CLOSE
DEFENSE CLOSES AND JURY IS EXPECTED TO RECEIVE IN.
 sTRUcTlONS TOMORROW.
Case Has Been on Trial Since De cember 6-Prison Sentence
 Is Pleaded For.

Chicago, March 21.-The case of the 10 Chicago meat packers who have been on trial since December ( before Federal District Judge Car penter, charged with criminal viola ton of the Sherman law, is sched- uled to go to the jury tomorrow aft ernoon.
 The defense closed its case today Tomorrow Special Counsel Butler will close the case for the govern ment.
 In closing the defendants case, At torney John Barton Payne said:
 Cabinets in Europe await your yer diets to decide whether fresh meat from the United States shall in the future be excluded from certain for eign countries. Do not send out word to the world that there is a dis honofed cattle market in Chicago The government is asking a prison term for these defendants if a yer dict of guilty is returned. If men are to be deprived of their liberty on such evidence as this, then indeed our institutions are on trial.
 "The defendants business is on tri- al in this case. No good can be ac- complished by verdict of guilty. Nobody claims anybody has been in iured by these defendants. A verdict of guilty would characterize these men as scriminals, brand their busi ness as a fraud and do great harm to this country and its people. Not witness has testified that the price of fresh meat has been raised or the price of cattle lowered
