CORNELL OUT TO
SCALP INDIANS

ITHACA. N. ". Oct. 1.-The Cornell
football squad. reduced to AZ men by
Head Coach Sharpe, wound up its hard
work in preparation for the game with
Colgate, Saturday. and at the same
time worked on plays to be used In
the frst important big game OF the
season, that with the Carlisle Indians,
Oct. 10.
The Indian game Is expected to be
one OF the, big attractions Of the fall
and O red hot battle 6or honors may
be anticipated. Last year Glenn
Warmers REDSKINS defeated Cornell
by single touchdown.
Only few changes have been made
In the lineup OF the eleven since the
Pittsburgh game, and these probably
are only temporary. Lautx has been
playing right-end In place Of O'Hearn,
who will be back In the game TO meet
the Indians, however Snyder and
Hunsick have alternafed at lefs-gnard
and Anderson continues at right IN
place OF McCutcheon. The lire. though
green. Is developing slowly and by
mid-ceason should be up 10 the stand
ard. The backneld Is intact though
the return OF Philiippi to practice may
mean change among the halfbacks
before long.
