During last Saturdays football game
with New York University, the stevens
coach substituted a player who had
been ruled out Of the game for rough
play This action on the coach's part
was taken at time when the manager
Of the team was off the field and when
the captain was out of the game be-
cause of minor injuries.
The substitution did not come to the
notice of the college authorities until
Tuesday, when President HUMPHREYS
and the student body through the me-
dunn Of the Athletic council started an
investigation. As a result Of this it
was learned that the coach had been
guilty of sending a player disguised
by plasters over his face and a differ
ent Jersey back in the game after he
had been expelled.
Tht athletic council upon the findings
promptly dismissed the coach, IN spite
Of the fact that only four days re-
NAMED before Stevens plays its big
gest game of the season with Rutgers.
The college authorities, alumni and
student body are indignant az the ac-
ton taken By the coach in substituting
a man under these conditions and are
strong in the opinion that 1t was en-

Stevens may not be able 20 have a

be able 10 have many victories in la
crosse, baseball or track, nor be rated

world. But there is one thing Stevens

standpoint of honor. A blow was
struck at IN, traditional clean athletic
spirit OF Stevens.
"A Stevens man. banished from the
game, was put back after hoodwlnking
the officials by a cleverly arranged

touchdown was made on a long run by
Hitchcock, who took a forward pass
from Haughton. After kicking the
goal the head coach also came through

mage Brickley made a goal from the

New Haven, Nov rs After a half
hours dummy tackling on Yale Field
the final hard practice for the Harvard
game was held in the bowl this after
noon. The work consisted of long
signal drill, in which the varsity ran
through a great variety Of plays with
snap and precision. In the scrimmage
between the first and second teams
Frank Hinkey sent into the game al
most every man on the squad.
The men were driven hard, but most
of the regulars worked only ten or if
teen minutes. In the scrimmagc the
first team scored six times against the
second string men. An extended SEES
sion i'm defensive play followed the
regular fray.
The varsity showed good form in
stopping the scrubs attack, and, as
yesterday, played brilliantly on the Of
fence. Fred Stillman was not in uni
form. but he WAS on the side lines dur
ing the practice. and there Is posi-
biity that he may run through signals
tomorrow.
Walden and Conroy, the big forwards,
and Alec Wilson and Knowles stayed
out Of the scrimmage. The last two
were worked hard yesterday, and al
though both arc in good condition,
Hinkey is taking no chances on elev-
cnth hour injuries.
Scoyil played brilliantly in the back
field he was the hardest man TO stop
on line plunges, and his handling Of
the ball was fast and accurate. With
Ainsworth and lie Gore he worked
double passes perfectly, and the second
team could do nothing against the rap

veloped.
Fife Waite also made long gains on
Overwhelmingly fast lateral passing.
There was almost no fumbling, and the
substitute backs handled the ball as
quickly and surely as the regulars.

tanned the other outpost place, making
it probable that he will play his first

Philadelphia. Nov. Is. The Univer-
sity Of Pennsylvania football coaches

wilderness against Cornell. When the
men resumed practice this afternoon
Avery was selected as tullback 20 re-
place Tucker, who was disappOint-
ment I'm both the Michigan and Dart
mouth games.
This is Avery's last game for Penn
syivania. and although brilliant
player az times, he has never been q
regular. He won the Navy and Indian
games, and there is hope that he may
be the man of the hour.
Against the Navy he intercepted
forward pass and ran eighty yards for
q touchdown, while against the Indians
he threw the forward pass which
scored the only touchdown. Avery has
told the coaches that he will not dis
appoint them in this game. I'm add
ton to doing the forward passing.
Avery will do the punting.
The coaches sprang another surprise
this afternoon when they sent Murdock
into the quarterback position instead
Of Merrell. This is not necessarily a
permanent change, though the coaches
think Murdoch has more initiative than
Merren.
The work of the two men will be
compared this week and the one who
does the better will start against Cor
