Annapolis, Oct. 14.-Iu view Of what
seems to be the cancellation Of the
game against the Military Academy
team, the midshipmen are looking for
ward 10 the contest against the Uni
versity of Pennsylvania in Philadel-
phia on Saturday with great interest,
and much spirit was put into the prac-
tice this afternoon.
A wide range of football was touched
upon, the practice cOnsi ting of every
phase of special work and a lively
scrimmage. There was a high wind
this afternoon, and this made the work
in handling punts particularly helpful.
A number of special plays were tried
out before the lineup and during the
scrimmage, and the midshipmen will he
able to show Pennsylvania some ad-
vanced football on Saturday.
Perry, the big centre, who has been
kept out by injuries, was in the game
this afternoon. and is expected to start
against Pennsylvania. Three men are
sure in the backfeld-M Mitchell, quar-
ter; Failing, right half, and Harrison,

or Alexander. With Blodgett in the
backhcld it will average about $50
pounds.

BRAVES TOASTED
AT JOY DINNER
Johnny Evers Goes Home
with Profits of $4,000 for
Year in Baseball.

Boston, Oct. 1.-THE Boston Braves,
worlds baseball champions, as result
Of the sensational series with the Phil
adelphia Athletics which closed hero
yesterday, we're the guests at a dinner
and reception tonight given by Mayor
Curley.
Praise for their victory was sounded
by various speakers. and modest
acknowledgement was made by George
T. Stallings and several of the players.
After the dinner many OF the Braves
left for their home cities. Each re-
ceiyed a check to-day for S2,708 So
from a representative Of the National
Commission as his share in the
worlds series receipts.
Captain Johnny Evers found the sea-
son q big one financially. His income
the last six months has been more than
$4,000, including a bonus of $4,000
for his signature to a Boston contract,
$4,000 in salary, another bonus Of
$4,000 for finishing in first place, his
worlds series receipts and some spe-
cial writing.
The winter will be spent quietly by
most of the men. Several vaudeville
agents were at Fenway Park to-day,
endeavcring to sign some Of the stars.
rabbit" Meanwhile, who was on the
stage last winter, may return this
year.
Stallings said tonight that the
statement by Minister Pezet, of Peru,
made at a dinner here yesterday, that
the Braves would tour South America,
was a mistake. II was due, he thought,
to the fact that some members of the
Braves had been asked to play with
the New York Giants on a proposed
trip to that country.

"STEW" BAKER LOST.
AGAIN TO TIGERS
Work of Click in Prince
ton Backfield Full of
High Promise.

Princeton, n. j., Oct. I4.-Tbc
coaches drove the Princeton football
players through the longest scrimmage
of the season this afternoon. In the
first half of the regular game two
teams picked from the varsity squad
battled with each other for over thirty
minutes. For the second half the var
sity met the regular scrub and was
forced TO the limit to get lone touch
down.
In the first few minutes of play
Stewart Baker, veteran of two sea-
sons, had his nose broken. Baker has
had more than his share of hard luck
this year. Kept on the side lines by i'll
ness since the first OF the season, he
got into his first scrimmage three days
ago and was just beginning to round
into condition when this afternoons
accident came. II is hard to tell Just
how. long the injury will keep him out
of the game.
Frank Clicks work was noticeable
this afternoon. Since his shift from
quarterback TO halfback his work has
improved at least 90 per cent. He is
strong IN running with the ball, picks
his holes we'll and is & difficult man for
the opposing tacklers to bowl over. His
work on the defensive is consistently
strong. He is sure, hard tackler and
is clever at diagnosing the opponents
play.
Harold Brown, the varsity end, who
has been resting a bad anl.le for ten
days, got into scrimmage this after
noon for the first time since his injury.
He played we'll for man who had been
out Of the game, and by his aggressive
ness showed that the rest had not
harmed him.
Boland alternated between fullback
and quarter to-day. dropping back to
do the passing and calling signals from
both positions. When Boland was at
full Tibbott received the ball from
centre. Boland still shows unfamiliar
ity with the quarterback position and
fumbles frequently.
After Eberstadt gets back into the
game there will be an interesting prob
lem to solve rs to who will be the
eoach's first choice at running the
team.

Rudolph Day at Fordham

"Skip" Wymard drove the Fordham
team through the longest practice of
the season yesterday, the men working
in fine form in an hours scrimmage,
which followed the usual preliminary
signal drill.
As Saturday will be Rudolph Day at
Fordham, preparations are under way
to accommodate the crowd. Dick Ru-
dolph, the worlds series hero, is an
alumnus of the Maroon college, and
has consented to be present at the foot
ball battle between Fordham and Mid
0lebury.
A number of the linemen received in
dividusl coaching during the scrim-
mage yesterday, and it is believed that
despite the evident weakness the line
will be greatly improved by Saturday.
The backfield still remains intact. as
Yule, Regan and Dunn have all showed
plenty of pep" behind the line.

Cambridge, Mass, Oct. I4.-Walter

There was n driving practice behind

Swigert, the quarterback. who did

down, now stands first substitute to
Logan, and was in charge of the first

Eddie Mahan was out on the field

One of Those to

It was payday for supporters Of the
Boston Braves yesterday. More than
sl25,OOO changed hands In this city on
such figures as we're obtainabie.
Among the losers we're some OF the
most successful Of local plungers. For
the greater part the follower of form,
the scientific bettor. placed his money
on the Athletics. The man with the
bunch was the one who cashed.
The heaviest loser here, from all &C
counts. was Arnold Rothsten. His
baseball losses for the season are said
to be in the neighborhood of $4,000.
One-third Of this amount was taken
from him when the Giants failed to
finish in front in the National League
race. In an effort TO get square he
plunged heavily on the Athletics, Of
fering odds Of to 5.
Frank J. Keeney, OF Brooklyn, hap
pened to be near at hand one evening

STOOD OUT IN LINE
Plenty Of Hard Work EnlivenS
the Day at Various Other
Football Camps.
rRy telegraph to mo rrIsune.1

New Haven. Conn. Oct 14.-Brilliant
work by Scoville at right halfback
stood out in the Yale secret practice
to-day. His defensive work was steady,
while he scored one touchdown after a
run of sixty yards and by his crashing
line plunges and end runs led up to the
'varsity's second touchdown.
In his dash for score, which came
on the first lineup, he shook OFT two
tacklers and twisted through almost
the entire scrub team. lie Gore, at
fullbaek for the varsity, was in his
usual form. He made one run Of thirty
yards, and after gains by Ainsworth
and Knowles carried the ball over for
q score.
Frequent funbles marred the play,
but both the first and second string
backs showed ability 20 gain steadily.
MacLeish and Duryea slternated at
quarter for the varsity, and Captain
Talbot stayed out Of the scrimmsge
Farr and Walden started the game at
night and left guard and were replaced
by Cakes and Conroy.
Walden's defensive work was psrtlc-
Ulsrly good, and in general the varsity
stood of the scrub.
Frequent shifts in both the line and
backfeld indicate that Frank Hinkey is
far from certain about the men who
viii play the NOtre Dame game on Sat
urdav. New men were rushed into po-
sitions to-day IN both line-ups every
few minutes. Stillmsn, the big crew
man who is being tried at end, replaced
Tug" Wilson this afternoon and did
well, scoring a touchdown on sudden
hift around end. Schram, on long
forward pass. carried the ball 70 the
three-yard line, from which Easton
plunged through right tackle for the
'varsity's third touchdown.
The most spectacular play Of the day
came on a touchdown scored by Tug
Wilson. Scovlle was carrying the ball,
and just as he was tackled shot 1t TO
Wilson, who carried the ball over. Pre-
ceding the scrimmage the squad had
half hours signal drill and detail work.
