The Topperweins gave target
shooting demonstration last Saturday
that was wonderful. They used every
thing from shot guns to the largest
bore Winchester rifles and shot as ac-
curafe with one as with the other.
Probably the most difficult shot was
performed by Mr. Topperwein, who
threw three eggs high in the air, ran
forty feet, picked up d shot gun, turn
ed around and shot the three eggs In
as many shots before they hit the
ground. He then shot wing targets
aiming his gun with the aid Of look
ing glass. Mrs. Topperwein, though
not as expert as her husband shot with
marvellous skill. The Topperweins are
considered the best shots in America
and are on an advertising tour for the
Winchester Firearms Co.

Whether the advisory board will

at Straight Football
ny Telegraph 10 The Tribunal

Schenectady, n. Y, Oct. 27.-Three
grinding ten-minute scrimmages be-
tween the Union College varsity and
scrub teams resulted in scoreless tie
this afternoon. The whistle robbed
the regulars chances of scoring in the
final period after it had carried the
ball forty yards down the field on
straight football. A number of men
ineligible to play in intercollegiate
games have strengthened the second
team greatly in practice. The weight
and experience of these men give the
varsity better fight and make Of
each practice hard game.

tice this afternoon. The backheld Of

have scored in a regular game.
Frank Vaughn was anxious to test
the strength OF his substitutes, and
only five regulars, Hendricks, May,

the Violet eleven for the best part OF
the tilt. New York University was

A large band OF rcoters from both

Penn. Football Men
Drilled in Rudiments

Philadelphia, Oct 27.-The Penn
football team was taken back to tho
fundamentals Of the game this after
noon and in, strenuous practice the
men were made to tackle, charge, drop
on the ball. punt and return kicks. This
constituted most Of the preparation for
the Lafayette game on Saturday.
The signal drill was devoted almost
entirely TO the new plays which have
been worked out by DR.. Carl Williams.
They will not be used against Lafay-
cite, but will have their first test
against Dartmouth. Until the game
with the Green they are to be shown
only behind barred gates.
Just when the coaches thought they
had their backheld settled permanently
they found that they must make a
choice between three almost equally
good men for one Of the halfback posi-
tions. Tighe. Rockefeller and Walsh
are fighting it out for the front half

YALE COACHES
EAGER TO SEE
COLGATE BEATEN
"Pie" Way Has a Trial at
Tackle-Bingham May
Get in Game.
By BRIGGS
tBy Telegraph to Tn. Trlbune.I

New Haven, Conn, Oct. 27.-Frank
Hinkey and his assistants are going to
leave no stone unturned in order that
Yale may meet Colgate on Saturday
with the strongest team possible.
With that end in view there were more
shifts in the makeup of the Yale rush
line play to-day and night drill in sig
nails was begun.
Brown, whom Yale will meet a week
from Saturday, is not considered so
formidable as Colgate, and it is planned
to oppose the former eleven with
slightly weaker team than that which
will meet the Hamilton men. This poll
icy will give the Yale players two
weeks before the Princeton game to re-
cover from any injuries received next
Saturday.
In accordance with this idea. none
Of the injured men were allowed to
take part In the ten-minute scrimmage
which the varsity had with the In
eligibles this afternoon. Neville and
Smith, both Of whom are fairly light,
took a rest, as did Nal Scovil, who
has q broken nose, and Baldridge and
Black, the tackle and guard, who are
just recovering from the twists to
their knees received In the Lehigh
game.
Yesterdays arrangement of the var
sity linemen did not suit the coaches
when they went over 1t in conference
after the practice, and to-day there
was a further shift. Dick Kent, the
225-pounder, was sent from right to
left guard. If Black plays on Satur-
day Kent will be sent back to right
guard, where King, of the scrub, played
to-day. Way was taken from the scrub
backfield, where he failed to shine yes
terday, and placed at right tackle. II
was his first chance in this position.
Eat" Conroy, heavy guard of last
season, was chosen for the other tackle.
These changes at tackle are the most
important of the week. The coaches
believe that now they have found the
right place for Way to make the best
use of his speed and aggressiveness.
Way and Conroy will have a trial at
their new posts against Colgate, in all
probability.
Varsity lineup to-day was: Left end.
Moseley; left tackle, Conroy; left
guard, Kent; centre, White; right
guard. King; right tackle, Way; right
end, Church; quarterback, Wilson; left
halfback, Waite; right halfback, Hig-
ginbotham fullback. .Markle.
The ball was given TO the varsity
in the middle of the field, the orders
being to take il down the field against
the ineligibles. Captain Wilson called
for straight plays, and he and his
teammates executed them so we'll that
the opposing defence was little him
trance, and two touchdowns were made
in the ten minutes Of play. Fife Waite
scored both Of them. SEEK" Markle.
who is a brother of Don Markle, the
former Yale football player, played a
good game. despite his lack of weight.
Bob Bingham, who broke his shoulder
last season in the first game, but re-
covered in time to score two touch
downs as a substitute against the Har-
ward freshmen, will be declared eligible
to play football shortly, it was said to-
night He is considered the best man
in the university at quarterback.

Briggs Also Expresses His
Sympathy for Athletes Who
Fell Under Ban of
Summer Baseball.

Cambridge, Mass, Oct. 27.-The
Harvard Alumni Bulletin" which will
be published tomorrow morning, will
contain an article by Dean lie Baron
r. Briggs, Of the university, who DIS
cusses Yale's recent action in disquali-
flying five Of It's prominent athletes for
playing summer baseball.
Dean Briggs, who Is president OF the
National intercollegiate Athletic Asso-
citation Of America, as well as chairman
Of the Harvard athletic committee,
gives to Yale unstinted praise for its
sportsmanlike attitude, yet at the
same time he expresses sympathy for
the young athletes and states that Har-
ward finds no satisfaction in having It's
rival lose the services OF the young
men on a technically. Dean Briggs
throws an interesting sidclight on the
situation at New Haven and announces
that Yale's action was taken without
protest having been received.
The article, in part, follows:
"a few facts about the Yale athletes
who have found themselves disqualified
under the Yale eligibility rules should
be generally known:
"First-Their ineligibility was re-
ported by Yale to Princeton and Har-
ward before any public announcement.
Second Neither Princeton nor Her-
ward would have protested these play
ers; and, so far as Princeton and Har-
ward were concerned, Yale was free to
use her own judgment.
Third Though the rules OF Yale,
Princeton and Harvard are fundament-
ally alike, their likeness is based on
mutual understanding and on no in
tercollegiate agreement now in force
Examination reveals in the three sets
Of rules considerable differences.
Fourth The five players them
selves withdrew before definite action
by the Yale Athletic Association.
Fifth Yale Athletic Associa-
ton in the persons OF it's chairman and
treasurer generously took on itself the
blame for the unfortunate position OF
the five players.

lcge could have acted more honorably

may seem incredible that the Ave ath-
letes, who must have heard endless
talk about the professionalism of sum-
mer ball, were substantially innocent;
it is at least equally incredible that a

endless talk they have heard may it.
self be one cause of their ignorance.
Nothing is more bewildering. nothing
is viewed In more varied and contra
dictory ways, than the ethics, and the
academic result, of summer ball play
ing.
"There is the institution which be-
lieves that man may work his way
through college by pitching in summer
leagues and remain in the college nine;
there is the institution which disquali
fes a man who plays in a game in
which a professional takes part on
either side, and there are all manner
of intermediate institutions. Every
amateur team takes expenses out OF
the gate receipts, II those receipts are
sufficient, and few men, young or old.
whose expenses are paid lead ascetic
lives. The Yale players had their ex-
penses paid. We have no evidence that
they received more. and we have their
own testimony that they did not.
"When their disqualification was
made public the attitude of Harvard
students was refreshing. | have yet
to hear a word of satisfaction either in
the punishment Of Yale offenders or n
the loss of strength TO Yale teams.
One and all the students have ex-
pressed their sympathy with their fell

their regret that such player as lie

spected for his personal qualities,

and that the penalty is wisely applied

yale has shown that she will risk
severity toward herself rather than
unfairncss toward rival. We wish
her TO believe that her rival is not
only rival but partner. that she
is as free to use her students accord
ing TO their deserts as il no intercol-
legiate games were involved. and that
in abolishing summer ball for the fut-
ure and ignoring il in the dimly lighted
past she would now not merely restore
some Of her best athletes to their
own. but would help Harvard to a
larger and truer view of intercollegi-
ate athletic fri<-dship."
