YALE'S TEAM WORK
 IMPROVES SLIGHTLY
Coaches Only Allow Signal asio Dummy Practicc---Lineup for
 Tiger Game Undecided.

New Haven, Conn, Nov. 10.---ToTp Shevlin and his feIlow-raemeers of the Yale football Boord of Strategy yesterdy duplicated yesterdays pfv gram of inactive practice. Last night they planned to order scrimmagtflg this afternoon, but today changed their plans, creating the impression that the players have not yet faliy recovered from the exhaustion of tho Brown game. As tomorrow will cioSv scrimmage work before the appear ance of Princeton here. only a single days actual football will be allow ed the players in which to master tise Shevlin wing-shift plays, which they executed poorly last Saturday.
 The coaches will not decide on the makeup of the eleven which will play Princeton until Thursday, Gates at left tackle, Church at left end and Jim Sheldon at right guard, are all insecure in their positions, Gates only by reason of his light weight, which, the coaches fear could not withstand the powerful drive of ti~e Princeton backs. Indications are that | Higginbotham will go to left end | tomorrow. Kent to right guard and Baldridge to left tackle.
 1 Features of today's practice were 1 the signal rehearsal and dummy of- 1 fensive work. In the latter the var sity walked leisurely through plays against the ineligible, the coaches featuring the regulars on ttTuir | individual positions at every point of the execution of the play. The teamwork during the signal practice was reported better.
 | Although Guernsey was at full back today it was learned that Sco- will take part in the signal rehear- sal. The coaches expect to use him for part of the Princeton. q.
 Burr Chamberlain, Captain of tho '98 eleven, joined the coaches. He gave special attention to the tackles
 Howard Jones, who was HinkeY's predecessor as head coach, looked after the ends. ..e..f

Billy Bull, the Yale backfield coach, who saw the Harvard Prince. ton game, said today in The Ymle Daily News that Yale is at present outclassed in every department oi play by the Harvard and Princeton eIevens in the form they displayed last Saturday.

Rush vs. Haughton.

Those following the course of Rush at Princeton should remember this that while Haughton beat Yale to 0 his first year. it took Haughton five years to build up an offence that could score a touchdown against Yale.
 In 1908, 1909, 1910 and 1911 liar vard's attack was always tossed back from the Yale goal line. It was not until 1912, Haughton's fifth year, that he finally drove his machine across
 Haughton also lost his first game to Princeton, and by that time he had been at Harvard developing his sys- ten, for the better part of four years Rush, in two E;ontrS, has done very fine work. Fine enough to suggest that Princeton has no worry over the future, for within two more years Rush should have a system installed at Princeton as effective as the Haughton system has been.
 Systems are not all soul and spirit. They are very largely of the flesh. As effective as Haughton has been, it must not be forgotten that for the last four years of his success he has had Brickley, Hardwick, and then a MAhan 10 build around. And one star is better than five good average players.
 We retraut an earlier statement that Mahan is the only outstanding won der we have seen this fall. There Is Spears, of Dartmouth. Considerable guard. MT. Spears. Plus.

 We have seen a number of the pig college elevens play this fall, and out of the lot we have seen one AL American star-Eddie Mahan. Most of the others will have to come from Cornell, Pittsburg, Colgate, Chicago, the Oregon Aggies. Washington State or California University.

Yale has been in a bad slump for five years but in that time Princeton has beaten her only once. If the Tigers fail upon this next occasion they might as well call it a bum job and desist for good and all.

The Minor College Squawk. (Modelled after the ancient complaint of the Big Elevens that small col cient practice.) The coach of Binkville College stood
 weeping bitter tears; We've got the best bunch here," he
 said, we've had in many years; Our guards and tackles charge like
 steers-our halfbacks skim the
 ground
 But we are shy on practice games to
 bring the squad around; We took on Yale and Pensy-we
 struck the Army lair, But you cant build good team up
 by running it through the air; We'd win the title in a walk and put
 'em all to flight If we could find some good Big Team
 to give us half fight" At Joshtown University the Head
 Coach heaved a sigh; "Our team is getting soft" he said,
 with sorrow in his eye; "I never saw a finer lot when I first
 came to town, But we've run shy on practice games
 and this has pulled us down; The Navy, Yale and Michigan-wt
 faced 'em in a row, But couldn't even get a sweat-mucl
 less a healthy blow; We've got eleven wonders here-witl
 seven stars to spare But you cant keep a team in shap'
 by running it through the air"

As we recall the narrowing and grewsome details, it has been exactly eisht years since Yale scored a touch down against Harvard. This hap pened in 1907. Since that game Yale has beaten Harvard once by the field goal route and has secured two ties. But of touchdowns there has been nothing resembling the same.

"a receivership was the only alter
native we had in the circumstances.
Under IL we will probably spend more
money on the road than we did in the
previous six months. We have an un-
due proportion OF cars in bad order, a
fact which assisted in bringing on the
crisis. With increasing general traffic
in sight we will spend more money on
equipment.

In the suit filed by w. F. Linebarger
through his attorneys Carey VanFleet

will be watched with interest.
Damages are asked for the sum OF
$2955, on account of oil dumped into

the oil covering the surface of the
water beef cattle refused to drink
with the result that they fell away in

suffered.
On number of occasions relief was
Gought from the oil through the office

relief by other means rather than
criminal prosecution.
II was hoped that the last legisla-
