COLUMBIA MEN IN
HARD SCRIMMAGE
Littauer Lost for Year to Team
Monroe Shows Well in Drill.

Columbia battled until dusk with the
freshman eleven last night in a hard
scrimmage in preparation for the game
with New York University on Saturday.
The varsity rolled up six touchdowns
against the freshmen chiefly on wide
open formations which had the cubs
bewildered.
Littauer. the big fullback. who
wrenched his knee in tackling practice
on Monday, was on the side lines with
"A bad case OF water on the knee, which
will keep him out of the game for the
remainder OF the season. Calder. Ken
nedy and WILDER were also unable TO
get in the scrimmage. and their places
were taken by Reeder, Donaldson and
Eaves.
With the exception Of Littauer. the
backiield was out in force. and Miller,
Simonds, Mansbach. Monroe and Dono-
no all had n chance to play. Monroe
was "A tower Of strength 1T fullback.
and slid through the freshman line for
long gains time after time. Mansbach,
who will do the punting in the two
games 20 come, had a drill in kicking
between the halves Of the Princeton
Columbia soccer game
The first OF series of nightly drills
IN the gymnasium was meted out TO the
eleven after 1t returned from the train
ing table.

OUAKERS AGAIN
CHANGE QUARTERS
Bell RELOCATED to Scrub While
Loucks Runs Team in Drill.

Philadelphia, Nov. l6.-In their des-
peration to improve their attack for the
Cornell game the University of Penn
sylvania football coaches have decided
to supplant Bell, the regular varsity
quarterback. with Sam Loucks, who I'M
Ill last week played the position with
the scrubs.
Loucks played the position for few
minutes in the Michigan game and had
further trial yesterday and to-day.
He has put so much ginger into the
team this week that the coaches intend
10 keep him where he is if they can
find kicker among the other backs.
The coaches hope that Fred Nreeland,
a halfback last year, who has been kept
Off the team this fall by scholastic
difficulties. will be declared eligible to-
morrow II he is he will probably solve
the fullback problem.
Vreeland can kick, forward pass, buck
the line and is the fastest man on the
squad If he becomes eligible and
makes good, Loucks will be the regular
quarterback and Rockefeller and Derr
the halfbacks.
Practically all of the varsity men
were sent into fierce scrimmage this
afternoon with the scrub, which used
the Cornell formations, and In emula-
ton of the Barrett smashes of-tackle.
which are supposed to feature the Cor
nell attack, they gained lots Of ground.

plays that will be used only in the West

A great deal Of attention was also
given to punting. Not only were the
backs given plenty of opportunity of
handling the ball and the linemen sent
down the field under the kicks, but the
