Princeton, y. j., oct S.-An early rest
began to-day for most OF sne football
men who will face Dartmouth on Satur-
day. Keenc Fitzpatrick ordered a general
day off except for two or three players
who were sent out to help the scrub in

Andrews is trying TO drill his men in
breaking up the forward pass plays Of
the Hanover team that are known. ana
he had several OF the regulars watch the
methods used by the scrub IN the defence
against Team 3. Boland started out by
foOling the second strirg men on a tricky
forward pass that netted over thirty
yards. but the scrub neld on the fifteen
yard line and Merritt kicked out Of dan
ger.
r. Trenkman and "Hobey" Baker went
in for the last part Of the work. and
Baker took a long practice at kicking
drops from the thirty yard line.
Trenkman mad some difficulty in getting
his passes to suit Baker. and the early
attempts at goals were decidedly fall
ure. but both men finally mastered their
parts and TIobey planted five squarely be-
tween the gprights.
Baker is handicapped in his kicking this
year bv Trenkmans ineXperience at CEN
ire, but the coaches are confident that he
is the man for the place and that Baker
will have nothing to complain of in the
later games.
