Cambridge, Mass, Oct. 19.-There
was no let-up in Harvard's hard week
of football because of the rain and the
slippery going this afternoon. The
players were not out on the held long
for their first experience in weeks IN
handling a wet ball, but while they
were at it they were driven about to
the limit.
The varsity again went against the
scrub, scoring one touchdown by tore,
ing the play continually up the held
with line plays, but the first team had
plenty of opposition. 60,
The coaches are gradually feeling
better over the prospects OF their
eleven, for during the week the for
ward line has responded to the most
vigorous of coaching and has really
made an advance. Also so many OF the
cripples are rounding into shape that
it looks as if the team would have
nearly if not all its line strength by
the time Of the Cornell game next week
Saturday.
The return Of Clark, the regular
rightguard, TO the lineup was one or
the happy features to-day. He has not
played since the Tufts game, and while

ABERG OBJECTS

Alex Aberg, champion Graco- Roman
wrestler of the world, has tender spot.
It is not his bullet head, nor his abbre-

tried in vain TO secure hold on, nor is

fed the efforts of the greatest Crap

No, Aberg's tender spot is something
more psychological and intangible; in
other words, the big Russians pride in
his profession is his vulnerable point.
This was made known yesterday. when
Aberg began suit in the Federal Dis

PENN FOOTBALL
MEN HAVE DRILL
ON SOGGY FIELD
Practice Marked by Sending
Williams to Position at
Halfback

Philadelphia, Oct. 19.-Penn's grid
iron warriors went through a hard
hours practice on soggy grounds this
afternoon in preparation for the game
with Penn State next Saturday. The
practice was marked by another shift in
the backfield. Bob Folwell, coach of the
eleven, sent Williams to right half in
place of shorty" Loucks, and an
nounced that Williams would be IN that
position at the start of Saturdays game.
The Sanford kick" will become a
weapon in the play of Pennsylvania
against State if the Red and Blue
eleven can perfect the trick, but Coach
Folwell fears that his team will hardly
master the play completely in the short
time remaining. The State formations
were used by the scrub to-day against
the varsity, but they gained little
ground.
The faculty committee on athletics At
the university to-day declared Billy
Neill, the right guard on the Red and
Blue eleven, ineligible to take part in
athletics because his time" limit had
expired. Neill played three seasons on
the Whitman College football team at
Walla Walla, Wash, and last season
with Pennsylvania. When the faculty
committee consulted his record they
learned this and asked Neill TO quit the
football team. His place will be taken
by Swami.
This was a severe shock TO the Red
and Blue. as Neill was considered one
of the best guards playing the game
and in line for all-Amerlcan selection.

Cornell, Princeton and Yale
May Receive Big Sur
prise on Gridiron
By GRANTLAND RICE

Those who are figuring Harvard on
the far, dim outskirts Of the Eastern
football championship had probably
better wait just a trifle until full re-
turns are in from citizen by the
name of Percy Haughton.
More than a few have the idea i'm
bedded in their domes of thought that
Haughton's great material-Brickley,
Hardwick, Mahan, etc,-has all been
handed to him pretty well developed
from prep school days. Taking this
view of the situation, they believe the
Harvard eleven will be wofully weak
with the star order wiped out and a
budget of new material in.
But those who remember only Brick
ley, Hardwick and Mahan forget few
other details-viz., Bradlee, Francke,
King and Watson, four of the best
backfeld men in the country, and all
developed by the Crimson mandarin.
Haughton had Bradlee ready in 1912,
Francke on hand in 1914 and King
ready TO fill in when Francke dropped
out. In addition to these, he developed
Quarterback Watson, beyond any doubt
the smartest quarter of the year.
No Joke Backfield.
Any one who figures that backfeld
made of Bradlee, Francke, King and
Watson would have been joke has
about nine more guesses coming. And
these were all developed under Haugh-
toms system.
For 1916 Haughton may have no
Brickley or Mahan to build around.
But with no one great star he has on
an average better backfeld material
than he had last year. With Casey,
Bond, Flower, iiorween and Hitchcock
10 start with, there is sufficient foot
ball flesh to form one Of the great
backfelds of the country.
Casey while at Exeter was regarded
as one Of the best prep school backs
of the country. The Natick boy has
had his share of experience, and with
this he has great natural speed and
natural running ability, which mean IS
the ability to pick an opening and
dodge tackler beyond the normal.
On last years freshman squad Bond
and Flower both gave fine promise,
while Horween and Hitchcock are two

Black, Sheldon, Gala
han and Smith Will
Not Play Against
Virginia

New Haven, Oct. 19.-Injuries will
keep several of the most valuable
members of the Yale eleven out of to-
morrow's game against Virginia Poly
technic Institute. Captain Black. left
guard; "Chub" Sheldon, left tackle;
Callahan, centre; Traver Smith, quar-
terbsck, and possibly Gait, guard. will
be on the side lines.
Captain Black will be compelled to
submit to an operation on the abscess
which has formed on his ankle. Cal
lahan's foot, which was hurt yester-
day, will prevent his playing before
next week. The injury to Smith, re-
ceived in the Lehigh game, has proved
so severe that. he will not attempt to
play again this week.
Although Gait broke a small bone in
his hand, the coaches tonight planned
to use him tomorrow. Sheldon was
taken to the college infirmary to-day,
suffering from tonsilitis. In addition,
it was learned that Jack Vorys, who,
next to Callahan. is the leading :an-
didate for centre, would be unable to
play for two weeks, because his in
iuod knee was again wrenched IN
practice recently.
Trying to Fill Gaps
Yale's already scant material for the
middle of the line has been raided for
reserves to fill up the gaps made by
these injuries. Graham, OF the SCRUB,

FORDHAM TEAM
SEEKS COVER IN
FOOTBALL WORK
Long Blackboard Talk Takes
Place of Practice
on Field

The Fordham football squad had ,
rest from outdoor work yesterday
afternoon. Coach Gargan did not wan,
to risk his charges on the slippery
field, as several of the players are Jus.
recovering from injuries. A long
blackboard talk, in which the roper.
tory of plays for the Susquehsnn,
game was reviewed and defensive tae.
tics outlined, was the onH work Of the
afternoon.
Although the lineup for SATURDAYS
game has not yet been definitely
settled, it will be practically the same
as faced the scrub in Wednesdays
scrimmage. Mcnamara will play quar-.
ter and Ewing and Sweetland viii %
the halfbacks. O'Connell, who is
good punter, will likely start the gsns
at fullback, with Dempsey, also
punter, as second choice. Both play.
ers have practised hurting the pas.
Dempsey appears 20 excel in this ra-
spect, but O'Connell is the better line
plunger.
As there is little hope for Kendriea
to return 70 his position az riSh.
guard, Braney will hold down this posi-.
ton instead of going back to his Oh
assignment at end. Jack Cantwe-
right end, will be unable to play, 2E
in CorcOran and Captain Consil,,
Coach Gargan has a capable pair o.
wingmen.
Lowe and Cadell will be the Gsckls'
and It is likely that Huggenvig. who
has rejoined the squad after ts'
weeks absence, will play half a gaT'
at tackle. The other guard will o.
either May or Perkins, while Tresn''
will play centre.

THREE FIELDS ON ONE
'CROSS.COUNTRY RUN

The novel sight of three fields speed
ing over hill and dale in title races IS
made possible through a decision by
the 'cross-country chapionship COM
mittee of the Public Schools Athletic
League yesterday. 1t was voted to hold
the day and evening high school stu
dent races over the Van Cortlandt Park
course on Saturday, December 3, on
which day the Amateur Athletic Union
had previously scheduled its national
championship event. About go runners
are expected to make up the field in the
three races.
Eight runners will be allowed on a
team. but only the first five across the
finish line will be figured IN the tabu-
lation for the point trophies. The
schoolboys will make only one. circuit
of the three-mile trail, and as the COM
mite considers the course hard test
without the water jump, this 9-foot
lean will be eliminated.

WILLIAMS WORKS
HARD DESPITE
SLIPPERY FIELD

spite of the rain and the slippery
condition of the field, the Williams
varsity football squad had a good

lineup again on Saturday.

Crimson Coaches Pleased
At Showing of Linemen

he did not show up impressively against
the Medford team at first, he improved
as the game wore on, and still is be-
lieved to have the makings Of a strong
guard.
With Clark back in the lineup,
Wheeler. the left tackle, is now really
the only substitute, but he has shown
varsity possibilities right along, and
even when Taylor comes back to take
the position he now occupies Wheeler
will make a run against both Sweetser
and Gamer, the latter now being regu-
larly at right tackle.
The backfield handled the wet ball
well to-day, Hitchcock showing a lot of
drive in his plunges and scoring the
touchdown. Bond, whenever he re-
turns, is going to have hard time TO
Gust Hitchcock from the regular string
of running backs. Richards. one of the
promising tackles, has severely injured
his arm, and if it is broken, ac is be-
lieved, he will probably play no more
football this year.
The work to-day was in preparation
for the Cornell game next week rather
than for Massachusetts, State on Satur-
day, and with the coaching they have
received, the linemen, in particular,
should be ready to meet Al Sharpe's
eleven at least on even terms.

TIGER COACHES
DRILLING MEN
IN OPEN GAME
Several New Plays Tried In
Driving Rain - Line Is
Satisfactory

Princeton, n. J., Oct 19.-The Prince
ton eleven lacks drive, the absence OF
the final punch in the last twenty yards
before the goal line presenting one Of
the greatest problems before the
coaches. There was no scrimmage on
the muddy field this afternoon, but
practically the whole period of prac-
tice was devoted to developing the Of
fence. A number of new plays are
being worked up, and Speedy Rush kept
the squad assiduously at them through
all the driving rain, which made tho
footing extremely uncertain and clean
handling of the ball impossible.
One thing looks practically like a
certainty, and that Is that Princeton
will use the open game more in the big
contests than ever before. The Tigers
could afford TO rely on old-fashioned
football last year, when such line buck
ers as Click and Shea were in the back
field, but none of the backs on hand
this fall have shown much aptitude for
getting through the line.
Princeton's playing thus far this sea
son indicates that she has a strong, re-
liable line and backfeld which hardly
ever misses man who has passed the
first line of defence. briggs can be re-
lied upon TO outpunt any rivals. In
these departments the Tigers are
strong, but they have no real offence.
Allan Brown can sometimes gain
through the line, and Eberstadt is
good man to make interference, but
Brown does not seem able to gain con-
sistently.
Tibbott is not at his best except in
an open field or on short jabs through
tackle. where he has a chance to use
his marvellous lodging and quick
change Of pace. Earlier in the season
briggs was used for good gains on
long end runs from fake kick forma-
tions, but he lacks the speed to make
that play effective.
Eddy can make an occasional first
down through the centre Of the line and
Ames a few yards on a quarterback end
run, but in the scrimmages and in all
the games so far this season a sustained
attack, the kind that marches from the
middle of the field to a touchdown, has
been entirely lacking. There must be
solution of this difficulty, and much of
the recent practices have been devoted
to plays which are distinctly of the
open variety.
