COSTELLO GAINS VERDICT
Tyrone's slugging Tells Tale Against

Mainly through his superior slugcing

fight was far from a scientific one.
Costello gained an advantaEc in the

NORTHEAST BOYS PRACTICE
Hayes and Hendrens May Not Play
Football This Season.

owing to the absence of Coach john
son, only a short football practice was
held by Northeast High yesterday. Cap
tain Webb set the men to work tackling,
while a signal practice was also held.
Chiefly kick and forward-pass formations
ensued. A fiftcen-minute scrimmage was
held between the Varsity and Scrubs,
in which none of the veterans took part
1t was learned that little hope Is en-
tertained that Hayes and Hendrens Will
be able to play for Northeast this sea-
son. Hayes, last years centre, was
stricken with typhoid and has only an
even change of recovery. There is no
possibility of his returning to the game.
Hendrens, who played fullback last year.
Is back in his studies.

FRESHMEN STRONG
CONTENDERS FOR
PENN SQUAD PLACES
Expert O pinion n Is That
YearIings Will Be Success
full Candidates for Some
Varsity Football ositions.
By EDWARD R. BUSHNELL

At the end of two days of preliminary
football practice at Pennsylvania there
are two outstanding features. One is that
Freshman eleven will be bidding with
considerable prospect of success for posi-
tons on this years varsity eleven. The
other is that the material for the fresh
man eleven promises to be the best that
pennsylvania ever had.
The situation among this years fresh
man candidates is most unusual. 1t
seems that nearly every man who reports
to Coach Young was the unanimous Sc
lection as an "all scholastic" star for
some position from some important city
or section OF the country. OF course a
lot of these mon are doomed in unwar-
rantcd fashion by their overzealous
friends but except for their more youth
gul appearance the casual observer on
Franklin Field couldn't tell which squad
Vas composed of varsity and which of
freshman candidates.
These new mon come from the New
Gmgland states, from New York City and
state, from New Jersey and pennsyl-
vania. Some Of them will undoubtedly
fall by the waysidc, but Il good many
ought to turn out we'll. Five of the best
looking men on the first year squad hail
from New England They include Emond
I.cipsic, who was an all scholastic full
back in Boston last year, playing on the
Commercial High School team; Raymond
Grant, u quarterback and end from Dean
Academy; Vincent Welsh, a fullbacl from
the same school and William Stack, an
end These five mon are already on hand.
while today John Kowall, a 2O0-pound
ucklc from the Powder Point Academy,

There are half dozen other men VIII,
in physique compare favopDly with tn,
men already mentioned and who are nov

too, that the main body of the freshman
candidates won't report for work until tn
university opens ON September -. II

the varsity squad now "ortains nearl

PENN'S FOOTBALL
MEN PUTTING IN
SOME HARD WORK
Coach Brooke Keeps the

team, has reported. He is in great shapn
and pounds heavier. Last year he suffered
from broken shoulder which kent hin,
out most of the year. Barring another
such accident he will be a strong cpnd-
date for the Penn eleven.

was sent to "By" Dickson as an end
possibility. He weighs $50 pounds and ia

both IN the morning and afternoon, II
Is evident that Coach Brooke Is not
going to leave a thing undone to make
ii winning season Brooke continued
his practice of the day before, giving the
backs rudmentary practice in running
with the ball, laying particular emphasis
on the handling of the pigskin. Among
the candidates Jones, Mathews, Hughes
and Tigh gave good promise. by" Dick
son continued his training of the ends.
1t Is evident from the number Of men
assigned to him that his work of filling
in the wings is hard one. Wray and
Garter displayed good speed for their
size. Murdoch is back and after his old
place He hasNgained 10 pounds and has
improved i'm speed. Big Rooms is also
in good condition. Urquhart and Gott-
walls did some great work in handling
forward passes.
Despite the fact that the freshman call
has not been sounded, the yearlings con-
tinuo to appear.

This Is not work that can be
carried on by any one group" was
the significant statement which open.
ed a recent call issued by the club.
Cooperation was asked OF all classes.
that children should be taught to be
cautious. that pedestrians should ex-
ercise judgment in crossing busy
streets. and that drivers OF all vehi.
cles. horse motor and electric. should
on their part use discretion at all
times.
Discussing the cause Of accidents.
the clab stated;
"No single class OF travel is re
sponsible for all the accidents that
occur. Pedestrians are often as much
at fault as drivers. Unforeseen nat.
ural causes and mechanical imperfec-
tions that cannot be found by tests
are the only real causes of real acci-
dents"
Other causes Of other accidents"
are listed as disregard of the rights
OF others, the erroneous idea that one
has the right Of way. and trying
stunts" on a thoroughfare.
