Coach P~ndcid of Tigers Orders
Them All TO Sidclines.


PRINCETON, Nov. 10.--Stirred by the en-
thuslasm shown by the 1900 students who
met the defeated team last night the Tiger
squad entered to-day upon its nnal week
of practice with great show OF ginger.
But while the student body gave e 'idsnne
of It's confidence In the team, there mas
been a great deal OF dissatisfaction, largely
unexpressed, with the system of coaching
which fails to turn out a winning team
when the material at hand is excellent.
Recognizing the Justice OF this feeling,
Coach Penfield has taken II upon hims II
to order the graduate football tutors 80
keep strictly to the side lines, leaving him
and the team to work out their own sal
walton in the little remaining tim.
AS the practice prior to the Yale game
is limited, the work is confined entirely to
attempting TO build some sort OF team play
which can show more punch than was
evident last Saturday. In accorddnc" with
this scheme the varsity took the ball h.a"
the middle of the field and was told ~ rush
IL over the goal line as fast as possible.
The scrubs showed a great deal of ability
and held the varsity remarkably well, nut
there was a more cohesive attack IN evil
dence than there has been for some time.
Highley scored once when Trenkman l
threw an uucalled for lateral pass to him
after he had intercepted a forward pass
Eberstedt, who took the place OF Ames In
the latter part of the afternoon, made the
other score after good line plunglag b,
Dickerman. Law and Moore had brought
the ball within striking distance,
Both Capt. Balm and CLICK were absent
from the scrimmage. but the former took
part in the signal drill which closed the
work for the afternoon. Click returned to
Princeton only this afternoon and did not
appear on the field at all The coaches
gave out the information that he would
not be used In any OF the scrimmages this

use him In the Yale game. His loss to the
Tigers is serious one. BALM simply
had another days rest, as his hard work
in the Harvard game had used him up con-
siderablv Practice tomorrow will be
hard and long. leaving only Light work
out for Thursday.
wallace Now Harvard Centre.
CAMBRIDGE. Mass. Nov. 10.-After
layoff of two days most of the Harvard
varsity players got down to hard work
again to-day, the drill still continuing 20
he held behind the secret practice fence,
The coaches, after sending the men
through n brisk signal drill. decided TO
work out few Of the substitutes for
Saturdays game with Brown.
There was n shift at centre, Bigelow's
place being taken by Wallace. The race
even at this late date is likely TO be close.
Bigelow, were he not needed as substt-
tute for five places on the line, doubtless
would be held at centre altogether. but
matters now stand II is necessary that
Wallace get into trim before the Yale
game.
The scrubs came on the field to-day
equipped with a lot OF the Yale offence.
They have been working on lateral passes.
There were some gains made. but the
policy is to keep the scrimmaging near
the middle OF the field, and neither the
varsity nor the scrubs get much OF
chance to work with the ball for any
length of time,
Finally scrimmaEe for Tordham.
Practice at Fordham was featured by
scrimmage yesterday for the first time in
nearly two weeks. A half hours battle
with the scrubs and Commerce High
School afforded enough resistance TO keep
the crippled Maroon on the jump. No
attempt at crossing the goal was made,
Particular plays, mostly new shifts were
rehearsed until perfected. The ball was
returned to its original position no matter
how many yards were gained If the play
was faulty. Coach Wymard has intro
duced two new shifts, each having three
successive plays.
A change In the Maroon lineup may ap-
pear against Vermont. So far Morcaudi
has directed the team in every game,
playing quarter. Yesterday Rowan, last
back position. Rumor claims he will start
against Vermont.
Capt Wymard and Dave Dunn were
still on the injured list yesterday, but
may report for a short signal drill to-day.
Penn Team stiII In Had shape.
pHILApsLPHIA, Nov. lO.-The varsity
football squad of the University of Penn
sylvania Is still in such bad physical con-
dlton as a result of the Michigan game
that Coach Brooke did not give the team
a regular scrimmage this afternoon In
stead he put the men through long
signal drill which was followed by a
dummy scrimmage The greatest weak
ness the Penn team showed last Saturday
was the failure of the backheld men to
break up forward passes. Coach Brooke
endeavored TO remedy this fault in the
dummy scrmmage.
HuptIey at Halfi n. Y. Z. Improved.
More shifts were made In the New
York University team yesterday after
noon. Capt Huntlcy was put at left
halrback. and bernstein was moved
over to fullback. Oldswang was tried M
quarterback and ran the varsity well
against the scrubs The team showed
more snap In the scrimmage than has
been seen at Ohio Field In days
Coach Reilly gave out several new
plays from wide formations. aud thov
were worked successfully against the
scrubs. The varsity scored six touch
downs in the half hours scpimmage. In
all probability the new lineup will start
the game against Stevens Saturday.
