From Impressions which can be had
of Yale's playing on Saturday from
the accounts it is altogether probable
that had the Ellis met the Crimson on
that day they too would have been
trimmed That depends in measure
on how good Brown was. Undoubtedly
Brown was a better team than in any
previous game-the Providence men
usually are at their best when they
meet Yale-as was limited by their i'm
prove dwork in practice last week.
Harvard, however, came far between
the Michigan and the Princeton con-
tests, and Yale has further to go in
the next two weeks to be on a plane
With Harvard than the latter has to
go to be fit for Yale. Meanwhile Yale
has another encounter on its hands,
and it must not be assumed that the
Tigers poor showing against Harvard
makes their cause next Saturday hope
less. They'll be eager to get even with
somebody to redeem themselves, and
Yole knows this.
With big scores one week and being
hard pressed the next, the Yale teams
work has been variable to the extent
of making it difficult to estimate the
Blues latent ability, whether it is a
team that can get together and put on
great power or whether pronounced
weaknesses will more than offset

YALE'S CHANGES LOOK SLIM
Results of Brown Game Places No Confidence the Power
of Blue Eleven to Overwhelm Princeton and Harvard
Securing Good Ends Big Probem-Squad Free From

Wiedman weighs 100 pounds and is
far from an ideal candidate for out
post duty. Till just before Saturdays
game the coaches had planned to start
Wiedman, but at the last moment de-
cided on Brann.
Fred Stfllman is clearly in the lead
for the other and rush position, but
end rush play is new to him and mis-
technique cannot be called finished. He
is easily the best frontiersman of the
squad. however. Tug Wilson viii be
tried at end this week. and is, of
course, Q possibility in the present cha
otto condition of the end rush compe-
tition Church, Schram and Gould are
all being watched searchingly for in
Gications of the instinct that makes
the successful end rush. Hinkey's
friends believe that he feels keenly the
inability of the end rushes to develop
under the coaching of two of the three
greatest ends who ever wore a Y ale
Uniform Hinkey himself and Tom
Shevlin.
The final two weeks of training in
the Yale football camp has started
That there is a lot of serious work to
be done in bringing the players up &c
championship form is the consensus OF
opinion of Walter Camp, Frank Hin
KEY. AIeck Wilson and the rest of the
Yale men who watched the Harvard
Princeton game.
There are a good many things to be
taken into consideration, not the least
important of which is the fact that
Harvard has two weeks between The
Princeton and Yale game in which tc
rest and get into form, while the T3le
warriors have but one. The problem
of nursing the team along in such q
fashion that it can win from Prince
on next Saturday and come to y
form for the Harvard battle weeH
later is a serious one.
Fortunately. the Yale squad is COM
paratively free from injury ROW. am
the men who nave been on the hos

Yale should have its best in the fefl

Yale has no jaunty confidence of
overwhelming Princeton and Harvard
after Saturdays close call at the hands
of Brown. Although YaIe's strongest
backfeld trio, Wilson, LeGore and
Knowles, were absent, in Cambridge,
the raggedness of the Eli team game
and the. ease with which its rush line
was punctured held out no hope that
Yale will be able to check the Prince
ton or the Harvard attack. Yale has
never reached the week of the begin
ming of her so-called championship
games with her end rushes SO far be-
low StandardE. A record of six for

MCFARLAND MAY TAKE
ON FREDDY WELSH
Reported That Packey Will Try to
Regain the Lightweight Title for
America.

Will Packey Mcfarland, the pride of
Chicago for several years, return to
the ring and meet Freddy Welsh, the
champion lightweight of the world. in
a title match at the British limit. or
will he decide to meet Mike Gibbons
of St Paul at 145 pounds ringside and
class it as being for the worlds well
terWeight title? Reports have been
made from time to time that Packey
had made up his mind to go after
Welsh, win the title back for America
and then retire. Such a plan would
not meet with the approval of Amer
lean fight fans, as was pointed out
recently by a San Ere ncisco writer. 1t
would only put the lightweight title
in q tangle, the same as the middle
weight and welterweight champion
sh ps have been mixed up for the past
few years. What we want is an Amer
lean champion who will try and de-
fend the title against all corners as
long as he can do SO successfully
and add to the fame of this country
in the boxing world. Whether Packey
can make 1876 pounds at o'clock and
be strong is a question that the Chi
cago lad only can answer, for there
are few who really know his correct
weight A match between Mcfarland
and Gibbons would be even more in
teresting to the fans, as it would
bring together two of the cleverest
and craftieSt ring generals before the
public today. Both are past masters
at the game and it would be a treat to
watch them without a doubt. A club
at Denver is reported to have offered
purse of $4,000 for Welsh and
Packey and $4,000 for Packey and
Gibbons. The Queensberry A. c. of
Milwaukee has offered to do even bet
ter than that on either match, so if
the boys are really in earnest about
getting together they need not hest
tate on account of not having good
offers. The Queensberry promoters
have authorized a raise in the bid OF
$4,000 for the Gibbons Mcfarland
match and the distance would be only
half of what would be expected j.

fire and bring about most promising
transformation throughout the Amerl-
can league. There will not be a club
in the organization that will not have
chance for the old rag.
In New York, hopes of the Yankees
winning the pennant will be boosted
slyhish with Eddie Collins as their
manager, for many take it fer granted
that he is to be the man. Everything
points that way, although Frank Ear
rell says he has not been consulted on
any such deal. But Ban Johnson's
assertion of his knowledge as to who
the Yankees new leader will be is q
sufficient hint to all that the Athletics
second baseman is the one selected.
One does not always have to be hit
with a brick house to tathom all the
deep, dark, mysteries surrounding
baseball schemes.
And this latest one is so commenda-
Bile, so wise in its conception, and Of
such splendid promise for successful
results that it seems foolish 10 keep
it under cover. II IS, too. the bigges;
kind of an advertisement for the
American league. ana the baseball
public should be given plenty of time
to digest the wide and lasting posi-
bilitIes of the grand plan.
The National league had a more sue =
cesstul financial season this year than
the American, but that was largely
owing to the sensational rush of the
Braves. That was the salvation #
many clubs strong boxes during the
last half OF the season, and the first
half was well taken care of by reason
of the st. Louis Cardinals. the ChicaS D
Cubs and the Cincinnati Reds flashing
into contenders with the Giants for
premier honors.
And for next season the parent or
garization is well prepared for another
successful race. The example set by
the Stallings aggregation in coming up
from taiIenders to the top and then By
winding up their phenomenal squirt by
winning the worlds championship a
four straight games should be suffi-
Gent to inspire the players of eve.y
club i'll the league with the idea that
they have it in them to duplicate the
showing of the famous Braves.
If this spirit does prevail, it is bound
to make a race.
The Braves possibly builded better
than they knew.
They surely did a whole lot for base
bali. They put lead-pipe cinch on its
honesty, and that is the chief bulwark
Of the sport.

Ten Connecticut Coast Artillery Off
GERS to Study With the Regulars

An eight-day war game will begin
today. Tuesday at Fort H. G. Wright,
on Fishers sland, which will be at
tended by ten Connecticut officers.
Names of the ten officers to attend
the war game at Fort Wright had not
been make known Monday. There has
been such general desire on the part
of commissioned officers to attend and
1t is possible for only ten officers of
the Connecticut corps to attend, that
the eslection of officers has taken con-
siderable time.
The war game is to be participated
in by the regular officers and the in
vitation of ten men from the Connec-
ticut Coast Artillery corps is a dis
tinction which is not enjoyed by the
artillery of other states. One of the
big rUu1ns in the administration
building at Fort Wright will be con-
Verted into a class room and here
numerous battles will be fought on
miniature sections of the Atlantic
coast.
The instructors in the great eight
day war game set the scenes for the
different battle problems on a board.
The class is prevented from witnessing
the problem until a curtain is drawn
aside. There are found then to be
hostile ships in positions of attack
and means Of defense are defined.
