TO HAVE
MANY GOOD PLAYS
Coach Madden Drives Collegians
Through Hard Signal Drill.
Vigilants Practice.

Coach Mike" Madden put his All-Star
eleven through one hour of hard work
yesterday in preparation for his game
Sunday with the Vigilants. Madden is
anxious to make a good showing against
the local champs and the team is paying
more attention to the offensive end of
the game than the defense. An AlI-Star
team is always at its best on the defen-
sive and it is the idea of Coach Madden
to give the team plays which will give
them chance to gain on the locals.
The Viligants held the first indoor prac-
tice of the season last night and the
team was driven through two hours OF
long signal drill. One of the best games
OF the season is expected as the Vigilants
wifi be compelled to hold back on its
fierce attacks as the big game of the
season is scheduled for Sunday, Decem-
ber 13, and Coach Ray Brown will not
take any chances in injuring the play
ers
Arrangements will be completed today
for the preliminary game which will be
played between the U. S. S. Dolphin and
the Spartan.

DUCKPIN RECORD IS
MADE BY YOUNGSTERS
William Zupnick and Joseph Kimbell
Roll Thirty-nine Games for Good
Averages in Twelve Hours.

One of the most remarkable records
ever scored in dUCkpins since the little
pins game was inaUEurated i'm the Dis
trict was made by two members OF the
DreadnauSht team. "f the Northeast
League. on Thanks giving Day.
William ZupniCk and Joseph Kimbell
decided to settle a friendly argument OH
total pins by bowling twelve hours.
These young pin spillers started on their
twelve-hOur grind at noon Thanksgiving
Day and finished at midnight In the
match. ZupniCk secured 1857 pins in
thirS-nine games. which is considered
exceptionally good as hut one alley was
used. Kmbell finished with 3.59e pins in
his thirty games.
ZUpniCk aged 81 IN for his games.
while Eimhell finished slightly behind
with mark Of 81
During the rolling Zupnick secured
eleven strikes and twenty-nine spares.
NhiIe Kimbell came through with nine
strikes and tTeuty-foUr spares. ZupniCk
put across the high game OF the con-
test by dropping l2I pins in the twenty
eighth game. while Eimhcll toppled 1Is
pins in the twenty-irst round for his
high mark
The lowest game Of the bowling was
rolled in the twelfth. when Zupnick to-
tailed but Il pins. Kimbcll's low game
was seventy-fOur. which he rolled in
the thirty-first contest
This continuous performance of en-
durance speaks well for the youngsters
in the Northeast circuit.
The bowlers ate their THANKSGIVING
dinner while rolling. One of the plav-
ers would roll two boxes while the
other ate. and in this reversing manner
they partook of one of the finest turkey
dinners in the city. which was fur
nished by Jack Caswell. proprietor of
the Northeast Bowling Alleys

Mahan, Parson, and Wallace
Will Be the Only Sur
vivors, While Yale Suffers
Slightly.
TIGERS REMAIN INTACT

Looking of into 1915 it seems as though
the Crimson tint along the football hori-
zon is fading and that the Blue Of Yale
and the Black and Yellow Of Princeton
are in the asCendancy.
Yale and Princeton have furnished easy
picking for Harvard in a football way
during the past two or three years. But
Eraduations next June threaten to wreck
the Crimson machine that swept through
to such great victories last year and
this year. OF the 1914 regulars only three
viii be left-Mahan, Parson, and Wallace.
On the other hand, Princeton will lose
only three Of its regulars. including Cap
tain Ballin, its great tackle, while Yale
will lose only two or three valuable men,
and will have left the nucleus for great
eleven.
OF course. Haughton. the Harvard
coach, may find some stars of the first
magnitude among the candidates who will
present themselves for jobs in 1915. Prob
ably some may rise to such heights that
stars of 1913 and 1914 will not be missed.
But the outlook for Yale and Princeton
for 1915 is much roster than that of
Harvard.
Most Of those who played regularly for
Yale and Princeton this year will return
next year. and their experience will be of
great value to the teams chance next
year On the other hand, Harvard must
build up a new team around three regu-
lars. which. even for a man of Haugh-
toms wizardry. is something of job
Included in those who never again will
wear 4 Harvard uniform are Brickley.

stitute linesmen; Francke, full back;
weatherhead, substitute end, and Con-
way, linesman.
Princeton loses by graduation only Bal
lin, Shenk and Eddie Trenkmann, of the
regulars. It loses a number of good sub
stitutes. but from this years freshman
squad some great players will be avail
able for varsity jobs next year. Prince
ton will retain Moore and Dickerman.
two substitute half backs who performed
so well for the Tigers against Yale;
briggs, the punting full back, will be back,
as will Tfbbott, the other half back. Ames
and Eberstadt. quarter backs, will be can
didates for the pivot jobs again.
Yale retains Legore. who was about
two-thirds Of the Yale team this year.
With the experience he gained this year,
Legore ought to show up in even more
wonderful fashion in 1915. Wilson, the
varsity quarter back, will be on the job
again.
ScoviI, one of the greatest plunging
half backs ever seen in the East, who was
forced to act as first substitute this year,
will get a chance to become a regular
next year. And Scovil promises to make
himself famous Guernsey, fine kicker
and a fine end sitter, also will be back
and will be a candidate for a backfeld |
job.
