Secretary Southern Yacht Club
WIRE TO DR.. KENNEDY.
DIR. Mallory Kennedy, in charge of
the quarantine service at Pensa cola,
received d wire last night from Sur
geon General Blue advising him that
the yachts had not been within five
miles of the plague infected district of
New Orleans and consequently there
was no danger in their making the
trip to Pensacola. He therefore gave
permission for the vessels to make the
run.
ARRIVE THIS MORNING.
The yachts will arrive in Pensacola
between 10 and IL O'Clock today and
their time will be taken as they pass
Palafox wharf, off which the stake
boat will be anchored. If the Eliza
beth should win the race she will be
awarded the Carlo cup as she already
has won two of the legs of this race
Ex- Commodore Cooke arrived in
Pensacola early last night in his yacht
the Country Club. He has a party of
friends and they came over to witness
the races.
Tonight the visiting yachtsmen will
be entertained informally at the Coun-
try Club and the members have also
been invited to participate in the
sweepstakes shoot at the traps of the
Dixie Gun Club this afternoon.
MANY ENTRIES IN RACES.
That the regatta Saturday will be
the biggest and most interesting re-
gat q ever witnessed in gulf waters
is shown by the entries already made
in each event and there will no doubt
be a number of others, for entries do
not close until tomorrow at noon.
Dinner will be served at the pavilion
across the bay Saturday at 1890
O'Clock and all yacht owners should be

desires that all boats be on the course

CORNELL SQUAD IN
TRIM FOR BROWN
O'Hearn and Munsick May Not
Be Used in Game on
Saturday.
La Telegraph 70 The Trlbune. ]

Ithaca, n. Y, Oct. 22.-The Cornell
football squad Of twenty-seven players
and the entire coaching staff and man
ayers left Ithaca tonight for New
York. From all accounts the red and
white team is in prime condition with
the exception of Captain O'Hearn and
Munsick, who will be used only in case
Lautz and Eckley are forced to retire
from the game.
Light work was teh order this after
noon for all the men on Alumni Field.
The players were sent through signal
drills for the Brown game, first on the
field and later when dusk madtit i'm
possible to follow the ball, in the base
ball cage under the glare of powerful
electric lights.
The team which will start the game
for Cornell as announced by DR..

MjurytO Pennock Puts
Harvard in a Quandary

be able TO return TO the play before
the Princeton game.
Pennock, who has been en- all-Amer-
lean guard for two years, is - all
odds the most valuable man on the
Crimson's rush line. With him out,
Bigelow will be moved in TO play guard
with Weston, and Curtis will remain
on the line as Trumbull's opposite at
tackle.
The backfcld was in trim again to-
day, Logan running things a while, as
there was no scrimmage. Hardwick
and Bradlee both are in shape to play
on Saturday, and to-day Francke
worked well in combination with them.
The necessity of keeping Bigelow at
guard and as substitute tackle has
caused the coaches 10 look about for
another substitute centre for Wallace.
They have picked out Harris. stocky
backheld man, as possibility, and
he began work to-day.
Parson may get into the game Sat-
urday, but the general opinion here is
that he is not quite ready. The work
on Soldiers Field to-day was mainly
on lines of individual coaching, the
forwards coming in for the most work
because Of yesterdays poor showing

Hanover, n. H., Oct. 22.--The varsity
football squad, together with Cava-
naugh and Loudon, the coaches, and
LOOMS, the manager, left White River
Junction tonight at $3.50 o'clock en-
route for PRINCETON. The men will
arrive in New York tomorrow noon
and will stay at the Cumberland. A
light workout on the New York Uni
versity field tomorrow afternoon Will
complete the preparation for the game
against the Tigers. The team will leave
New York or Saturday morning for
Princeton.
A long, hard scrimmage and secret
formation drill have featured the work
of the squad throughout the last two
days. Cavanaugh has taken every care
to round the team into good condition
and 20 instil fighting spirit.
With the temperance OF Captain
Whitney and Murdoch in the lineup
the team has been materially strength
ened. Curtis is yet unable to join the
backfield trio, but there is more than
an even chance that he will enter the
contest on Saturday. Smith is back in
right guard and is showing consider
able Improvement. The coaching staff
is expecting no trouble at the end posi-
tions, as Pudrith and Teller are show
ing up better than ever and both have
been coached TO meet an open game.
In the backfeld there is a wealth OF
material, Gerrish, ,Thielscher, Tuck
and Cannon being capable of filing any
gap .here. Cumisky has gradually i'm
proved in his selection of plays and
will be able to handle the quarterback
position should Chez be taken from the
game.
Dartmouth students deny the story
that Princeton sent $1,000 to Hanover
TO be bet on the game. The report was
published in a Boston newspaper to-
day. The Dartmouth undergraduates,
however, do not appear to be averse to
betting on the game.

BROWN COACH CONFIDENT
Expects Victory in To-Mor'
rows Game with Cornell.

Providence, Oct. 22.-The Brown
team completed its practice for the
game with Cornell on Saturday with
short, easy workout this afternoon.
The time was devoted to signals,
kicking practice and a dummy scrim-
mage. The men showed that they were
nearly letter perfect, the plays run
ming off smoothly Gordon got IN
lot of kicking practice and did fine
work, averaging forty yards against q
strong wind.
Robinson, the coach, said tonight
that he expected the team to come
through with a victory, although he
fully realized the strength Of the
Ithaca eleven.
The varsity showed considerable
Improvement in interference for the
man running with the bali on the
kickoff. Outside of Ormsby and An
drews, the team is in good physical
trim. Twenty-four members of the
squad left Providence on the boat to-
night, and will make their headquar-
tiers at the Biltmore Hotel. The Of
fcials will be Marshall, OF Harvard

ARMSTRONG NOT TO
COACH YALE CREW

New Haven, Oct. 22.-Richard Arm
strong, captain Of the 1895 Yale crew,
who was graduate advisory coach of the
Blue oarsmen last season, will not be
with the crews this year, owing TO de-
mands upon him mis- business, accord
ing to a statement by Captain Denegre,
printed to-day in "The Yale Alumni
Weekly" His successor has not yet
been ramed.
Fall practice is progressing satisfac-
torily, under the direction of last years
coaches, Guy Nickalls and Eugene Clan
mini. The 175 candidates are on the
water daily in preparation for the fall
regatta on November IL. Captain Dem
eyre says the style of rowing that
proved so successful last year is again
being used, and a uniform style of rig
ging has been adopted.
There will be no outside races until
spring. when it is planned to have con-
tests for both the varsity and fresh
men before the Harvard regatta.
