FOOTBALL NOTES.

Princeton has scored Sc touehdowns this
fall, Carlisle 80, Dartmouth g. Harvard
Is and Yale 10.
Leo Leary probably has ceased to wor-
ny about his ends at Harvard now thai
"Fulty" Cutting has arrived.
The Tigers will have their headquarters
at Auburndale the night before their
game with Harvard.
Charley Bfiekley of Harvard leads the
goal-from- the-held kekers for the sea-
son He has made seven such goals for
q points in the last three games Harvard
has played.
In praising Princeton for beating Dart
mouth, last week, Keene Fitzpatrick $
part should not be forgotten. Also it's
something new to see Princeton elevens
in shape to play hard football for the
fun time limit of a game
Both the Princeton Freshmen and the
Harvard Freshmen have played Hotch-
kiss School. this fall. The young Tigers
won their game by 6 TO 0 and the Har-

Harvard surely has developed splendid
protection for Sam Feltons punting, this
fall with the result that FELTON, has had
time TO make his best kicks. and these
are such as no other kicker in the game,

The Harvard Freshman Princeton
Freshman football game will be play
ed at Cambridge, Saturday. at ?, the
same hour that the Varsity teams will
meet. Last fall the Freshman played
in the morning on the Varsity field
at Princeton, and ii is too bad that
a similar arrangement could not have
been made again.
Tuesday, w. Cameron Forbes. coach
of the Harvard eleven in 1885, when
Harvard beat Yale, Il to O. was Percy
Haughton's guest in the Stadium.
Haughton played tackle on Forbes
team and did the kicking-and some
kicking it was, too. down at New
Haven in the rain and mud, that year
The Harvard Varsity football team
prepared, Thursday for the last stiff
practice in anticipation of the con-
test with Princeton, Saturday. The
stadium, with it's $1,000 seats prac-
tically sold, was closed, SO that the
players might go through the man
euvres in secret. In addition, the
coaches sent out notice for night
practice and a blackboard talk in the
gymnasium.
Union College has had an odd ex=
perience, this year. The team that Is
being coached by Dawson. the old
Princeton halfback and catcher, has
played two 0-to-0 games, this fall, and
also has won two games by to 8.
The Yale coaches think that Bomeis-
LEI will be able to play against Har-
ward, if not against Princeton. He is
not getting into the scrimmages, but
is working daily. getting up speed and
keeping in fine condition and up on
Tie teams plays.
Now that there seems a good chance
that Yale will not meet the Army, next
fall. Pennsylvania IS looking Tor q
game with the New Haven team.
Nowadays Brown and Cornell are the
only prominent Eastern teams that the
Quakers play. and the Red and Blue
needs a really big team to help its
football position, as well as its eX-
chequer. Every year, hopes are enter
tanned that Princeton or Harvard VIII
be secured, but there is hardly more
chance that Penn will get date with
Yale than with the Nassau or Gam
bridge teams.
