Captain, Ear SJiidn,ore of the Univer-
sity OF Utah basketball team made his
initial appe. .yenue in practice last night
and put more spirit into the fellows than
thew have haos before this season. The
SQUAD was divided into two teams and Z
great bit OF r.inmage work was done
for an hour or 10. Skldmore has had a

The feature of the workout was the
scrap between Roy Mcintyre and Loren
Briggs. the two giants who are trying fot
center and who we're pittcd against each
other in the scrimmsge. Mcintyre is
Rood Jumper and Is faster on his feet
than Briggs. but the latter offsets these
advantages OF his rival by greater per.

.HAUGHTOV PICTURES
. BIG CAME ON SCREEN

CAMBRIDGE. Mass, Dec. 16.-"Har-
ward was handed last years game with
Yale. but won this years contest" Percy
D. Haughton, coach OF the crimson team,
said tonight at students mass meet
Ing IN honor OF Harvard's championship
eleven.
Haughton pointed out in pictures
thrown on a screen seven "glaring mis-
takes" which he said We're made by the
Yale team In the 1912 game with Harvard,
Harvard played errorless football in this
years Yale game. he added. except for
one off-side play. No reference was made
TO the play by which o Brien Of Harvard
unwlttingly scored a safety for Yale.
Haughton discredited the theory that
the forward pass was an effective weapon
OF offense and exhibited charts to sup
port his point, He insisted that the for
ward pass was of little value when the
opponent knew how to cope with it. The
conservative game, such as that played
by Harvard teams in recent years, ne
said was the best practical theory of Of
tense
Coach Haughton referred frequently to
Captain Ketcham of Yale. He showed
several pictures OF the plays in the
stadium in which KeJcham figured, point
ing out that In each Ketcham was smoth-
cred by the Harvard forwards while the
play was carried through. This was the
reason, Haughton declared, that Ketcham
was not chosen for the 'all-America''
team by Walter Camp. Ketcham's rough
ness during the early part of the Har-
ward game gave the crimson an carly
advantage, said the coach.
Harvard players will elect their cap
tain for next year tomorrow.
