On Yale Gridiron

NEW HAVEN, Conn. Nov. 2.-Tom
sheylin reached here in time to look
over the Yale football squad this az.
ternoon. He sat with Frank Hinkey,
and statements given outSby Captain
Talbot, representing .Hinkey, and by
Captain Wilson tonight declared that
the title of head coach would be in
suspense the remainder OF the season
and that Sheylin- and Hinkey would
be fellow-working members Of the.
coaching board. which is composed OF
10 old players.
Wilson, in the only statement he has
made since the reorganization of the
coaching stan began, said he regarded
the trouble with the team to be lack
of old and experienced coaches. He
pointed out that the coaching this fall
has been done by players who have
never taken part in IA winning cham.

general admission space, which will
not be opened until Saturday.
Pitt had a stiff scrimmage yester.
day. experimenting with new plays
which will have their first serious trial
on Saturday. Several players were
excused from practice, notably Bob
Peck, who is suffering from a heavy.
cold. The Blue and Gold cannot afford
10 take chances with Peck, and he
will be well cared for this week.
II Is an open question whether vii;
hanson or Fry will be used for punt
ing against w. q j., with the odds on
the big fullback, because Of his great
showing in games and in practice re:
Gently. Fry's last two boots in the
Penn game were both over 60 yards,
and his punting since that time has
been equally sensational. In Fry Pitt
rooters think they have a fullback Of
the same all:round development and
skill as Tex Richards, captain OF the
1910 championship team.

Lest the Misrepresentation con-
corning the Warrington High School
football team. emanating from one Of!
the newspapers OF C%iarksburg, may
become widely spread and be accepted
as truth; the Representatives OF the
Warrington town wish to present
theirS case, and then let an impartial.
public Judge their merits.
The Warrington team was accused.
In the Sunday Telegram OF delaying
the starting OF the game, objectinet
without cause to the decisions OF the
Officials, and cursing the local team.
the coach and the officials as they'left
the field.
The cause OF the delay was an &C.
Icidentf to one OF the autos which took
the team to C%larksburg. Two tires
blew out. We could not help that.
When the referee declared Il was
legal to steal the ball out Of an oppos.
Ing players arms provided the whis-
tie had not been blown, the team quite
naturally objected. However It did
not do any good. for Clarksburs was
given the stolen bali by official de:
scision, and the boys showed their
isportsmanship by continuing the game
even in the face Of such q raw one
as that. That act robbed the Man.

because at the time the incident oc:
Cured they were going downit the field
like a house afire. They thought they
had q right to object when three men
tackled one man, and a fourth jerked
the ball out of 5Lyall's arms.

In spite of the "rottennessn the

difference of the two teams In either
