HARD DRIVE FOR ARMY.
Scrubs Try Navy Formations, Which
Work Well for a Time,

WEST POINT, N. Y, November III
The Army's heavy foot ball work for
the Navy game was resumed yester-
hours practice on the Plains gridiron.
The scrimmaging lasted an hour and
was one of the toughest of the season.
The scrubs were equipped with some
Navy formations, which for while
threatened to create havoc with the
varsity men. The second team had tall
lied twice on touchdowns before the
regulars had formed a suitable defense
for the plays. After that the big team
tied the score, oliphant getting both
touchdowns after the varsity had re-
ceived the ball at midfield and had ad-
vanced it straight down the gridiron.
Mitchell and Coffin figured largely in
these offensive drives The latter's shift
to quarterback was short-lived. for he
was again at his former position at
fullback during the entire drill yester-
day, Gerhardt being used as a pilot on
the varsity. The latter displayed good
form and drove the team with much
snap and vim. Several Of the cripples
were again in togs, notably Neyland,
Ford and Redfield.
Coffin's punting was a feature of the
drill. His kicks averaged fifty yards
and were well timed and placed. Ford,
too. got long punting drill. Parker
and Weyand were the tackles, Big
Jones resting on the side lines. At
throughout the practice. McEwan and
Oliphant were both much in evidence
in breaking up the scrubs forward-pass
plays.

into their hearts to see the performance
of Edward W. Mahan, captain of Har-
wards foot ball team this year, renowned
drop kicker and punter
Perhaps Mahan was unconscious Of
Otis L. Guernsey's toe until he saw the
latter's performance at New Haven last
Saturday, which spurred Mahan to put
ting distance and height into his spirals.
Over in the far corner of the stadium
facing the wind, Mahan spent the after
noon booting them to the right of him and
to the left Of him-and what a perform

Mahan's kicks registered an average
of seventy yards, and this with the wind
against him. Mahan hasn't done any

town at 11.15 last night, westward
bound on their most crucial trip Of the
most crucial year In their 8S years
history as a ball club. Their victory
over the New York Giants yesterday,
giving them a oiean sweep of their
next to last series at home, increased
their lead over Brooklyn to three and
a half games, and over Boston to four
and a half. A goodly gathering of
about 5000 fans was present at Ma
tional League Park to say farewell.
That clout of Cravath's deserves
separate story all by itself. It came
suddenly, with the score tied at SO,
in the eighth, after Gavvy had come
to bat three times without getting a
hit. AS very, very seldom happens
with home runs, the bases were filled
at the time, which is why the above
mentioned 5000 stood up and roared
