WILL HAVE PRACTICE
TWICE EVERY DAY
Catholic University Squad to-
Be Worked Hard Until
October |.

| The Catholic University foot ball squad
received its first workout yesterday aft
| ernoon under the direction of Coach Nc
| Dewitt the former Dartmouth star and
Colby College coach.
Twenty men reported, and they spent
two hours in real work. The practice
consisted of falling on the ball. starting,
blocking. tackling. running down and
catching punts and making forward
passes Coach McDevitt spent thirty min
| utes instructing the men on the proper
| form in tackling and falling on the ball.
| The rest of his time he spent with the
i backs and ends. He laid great stress on
the manner of getting off and receiving
forward passes. The men handled the
wet ball well and showed fair speed on a
slippery field.
From Lee, ex-Capt. Clancy, Mccarthy,
Capt. Blewett. Garvey and McDona Id,
Coach Mtcevitt has excellent material
to make selection for his backfeld, with
a good set of second-str men to hold in
reserve.
Lee is large man. standing five feet
eleven inches and weighing 1870 pounds
He halls from Gushing Academy, where
he played tackle, but he is very fast
and a good punter he is to be tried at
fullback Lee showed good form in punt
ing, making several 4J-yard drives. En-
Capt. Clancy was tried at half and quar-
ter. and showed up WELL AS the quarter
back position has been left vacant by
Ia chary, it is probable that Clancy will
receive a good tryout. Capt. Blewett did
not get in town in time to get in toys but
says he is in the pink of condition and
ready to fight for his old position at full
Robinson, Cronin. McManus and Butler
alternated at ends. Robinson showed
great speed in getting down under punts.
Cronin and McManus made several lice
catches of forward passes. O'Day and Nc
Cam were tried out for center and each
looked good and found little trouble in
making passes with the wet pigskin
Scully, a candidate for a line position,
ball. but it is not thought to amount to
much as he stated it was only a little
stiff this morning and he would be out for
the morning practice.
After practice the men were given a
short talk by Coach McDevitt on the ne
cessity Of training and eating the proper
food. Manager Maloney had everything
in readiness so there would be no hitch
He distributed rule books among the
players SO that there will be no excuse for
man not knowing the code.
Owing to the late start which the SQUAD
has made Coach McDevitt has ordered
every man to be on the field twice day
at 3. This will continue until the morn
ing classes at the university interfere.
Several men are expected to arrive in
town today in time to set in the afternoon
practice Magil and Lynch, last wears
guard and end, will not be able to report
until the list of October. Lynch writes
Manager Maloney that he has been riding
horseback twelve hours every day on the
western ranges since last June and prom
ises to be in condition when he arrives

Little difference could be noted yester
day in the foot ball games played from
| those which took place during the earl,
part of last season. The style of pla.
| used in practically all the contests wa:
about the same as that seen in 1911, and
although it was unexpected, the score
rolled up by the larger teams against thu
| smaller We're not any larger nor in SOM
cases as large as those made early las
fall.
Take the Yale-Wesleyan game, for in
stance. Yale could register but one touch
down against the smaller school. and i
in turn was scored on. Not only was
the score about the same as that. only
closer. made last fall, but the style o.
play was exactly the same.
Then Cornell had hard time getting
away with the Washington and Jefferson
fn In spite of the elasticity which
the hew rules have given to scoring, the
Ithacans were unable to get the bal
across the goal line, and the only points
registered by it We're those resulting from
a drop kick by Butler.
OF course. the LehiSh and Carlisle In
dian elevens got away against weaker
aggregations and rolled up big scores,
but no larger than they nave maze
against the same teams in times past.
1t was only to be expected that these
two schools should defeat Albright and
Lebanon Valley decisively, as they have
always done SO under more difficult con-
ditions.-
The, results of the games played yester-
day by the mentioned teams are as fol-
lows: Yale 10. Wesleyan 3; Cornell ).

enough forward swing was done to keep

BY J. ED GRILLO.

PHILADELPHIA. Pa, September %
For some unaccountable reason there are
certain clubs in the American League
that do not have TO live up to the rules
The Athletics appear to be one OF these
and in declaring that but one game Woui'
he PLAYED today the rules We're Vlolat
cd one of the laws of the American
League is that after the first trip all post
poned games must be played on the mex
scheduled day. Yesterdays game was
made impossible by weather conditions
Yet the genial Mr.. MACK announced tha'
there would be but one game today, when
the rules specifically call for two. Should
il rain today. but two of the three
scheduled games could he played. yet II
is not likely that the league Will take
any action in the matter.
Just why Mack would not play the two
games today is hard to understand. UNI
less it be that lie hopes to manipulate his
pitchers by reason of the extra days rest
the Nationals.
In the event of rain tomorrow but one
Of the three games could he played. a
condition which perhaps would be most
pleasing To- the genial Mr.. Mack. but one
which would prove financially detrimental
10 the Washington club.
Manager Griffith was hot under the
collar when he received word that but
one game would be played today, and
he proposes to take the matter up with
President Ban Johnson and make an
effort to learn whether league rules are
to be violated whenever ii suits CLUB
IL do so. The present trip has been
most disastrous one for the Washing
ton club. 1t got Il lot of money in Bos-
ton but did not draw in any of the
western cities. and then lost about
s6e0 when it went to Rochester and
Toronto and found it raining in both
places. The present arrangement here
is once more jeopardiznS the club
interests. and Griffith does not propose
to stand quietly by and see himself
and his associates get the worst of 1t,
hence there is very apt to be a row.
The present rule of the American
League which forced a club to play
double-headers when poStponemehtS
occurred after the first trip. was made
necessary by Connie Mack. who during
one season avoided playing a tough
team by refusing to schedule double
headers But the rule does not seem
To have brought about remedy, since
Mack like the New York club, seems

rules.
Griffith wants two of the three games

he is keeping the order in which he Will

twenty-five candidates responded to Capt

This race caused little argument over

|, to allow the game to be played by teams
with an element of safety there is intro
duced the element Of chance against
which all elevens must guard securely.
The fact that Georgetown is working sc
hard may in a measure be responsible FOL
the exceptional number of injuries that
are taking place on the Hilltop. The
team yesterday was put through con-
tinuous scrmmage for forty-five minutes
For men who are still soft and have no,
yet hardened to the rough work in foot
ball, it would seem that that is entirely
too much work for them.
a foot ball player is injured much more
easily during the first two weeks of prac-
tice than at any other time during the
season. and especial care should be taken
with them during that period. Without
the best of care player is liable to put
himself out of business for the entire yeal
before he has been practicing more than
three days. 1t can hardly be expected
that man can go into foot ball scrim-
mage not in condition and come out with
out being severely bruised, and possibly
with worse injuries.
Take Rawlings, for instance He went
into a hard scrimmage yesterday al
Georgetown, and it is reported that it was
his first day out. 1t was taking a long
chance to allow him to enter into rough
work when he had done nothing before
in the way of foot ball
1t may not be that the numerous in
juries being received by players at George
town are due to the fact that too Cruel
ing work is being done. but there is no
other reason that can be advanced for it.
The Western High squad reported yes
terday. and by all appearances the West
End school will be represented by one of
the best elevens it has had in years.
Nearly all of last years squad is back,
and two or three of the subs are also on
hand. 1t is claimed that several men
who We're not regulars last fall will show
up well enough this season TO make the
regular team.
One new recruit who will be out for
the team and who should make good is
Jones. He ran on the track squad last
spring. Jones is an exceptionally fast man
and has had some experience in the game.
He and Capt. Howard should make two
very reliable and capable halfbacks.
Technical High has been working out
but little, yet the men are in good cond-
ton. Those who worked with the crew
during the summer are in excellent con-
ditiOn. while the others have kept in
fair shape.
Tech may be the team that will have

school series. With fair material the
Manual Trainers are apt to turn the
tables on somebody.
