Speed Boys for to l count Quincy

and Outguessed. Billy Neal, the grand
old man, accomplished the trick. hold

four of them being on the scratch

Lister fumbled a throw at first, some
thing he rarely does. and Tyree count

the day for Castles gang.
The Islanders smote Higbee for u
lovely swats, a pair of them two
sackers. And furthermore the hits
came at opportune moments Every
man on the local team played his
"durndest," and the result was a
classy article of ball Erlewein shOne
yesterday in the field, handling 10
chances with nary a slip. Fritzie also
collected two hits in four trips to the
plate Wolfe's injured leg is still
hothering him and Julie Munich re-
placed him in the right garden.
It was another day Of managerless
ball for the Islanders. but the local
players needed no bossing, using their

throughout. Neal and Marks both
warmed up. Ware, the only other
twirler on hand, worked Thursday and
could not be expected to perform yes

to give him orders or even tell him
TO pitch. After the workout Neal an
nounced that he felt fit and Marks said

The orphaned Islanders hung up one
tally right at the start. HoIlocher laid
down a pretty bunt, but was retired at
first on a close play. Munich damned
a single TO center and stole second.
He took third on Biltz's out and scored
when Trainor juggled McBride's

Quincy knotted the count in the

The orphans staged a batting fest

DEHN ON SQUAD
IchabOd Stock BOOms When
Old Guard Suits Up Again.
Stewards Kicking Toe Round
ing Into Shape Rapidly.

With Dehn. the varsity guard of
last year, back on the field in Satur-
day afternoons practice Washburn's
stock moved a few points more to-
wards par.
Dehn was one of the reasons why
the freshmen in scrimmage against
the varsity could make no progress at
all. Benton and Dehn, guards, and
Fat" Wilson, tackle, smashed thru
the yearling line at will, breaking up
play after play. And in the backfield
Champeny and McCosh showed their
ability to pick holes. Hank" Sui
Ivan, in the scrimmage as ha1fback
for a time, showed up we'll in his new
position.
Plays Down Pat.
The varsity had what plays the
coach has given it down pat in Satur-
days practice. Everything showed up
we'll with the exception of the forward
pass plays, which if they are to be
one of Washburn'S pet re1iances, will
require a great deal of practice.
In practice Stewart booted some
beautiful punts, averaging around
fifty yards. There was coolies of pep
running around uncaptured and how
ever some of the individual stars show
it is evident Old Man Washburn
spirit, prominent in many of the Icha-
bod victories of aforetime, will be one
of the mainstays of the team during
the 1916 season.

soon as possible for Cleveland, where
he will probably stay until the worlds

Considering the attendance of the

Yale men are greatly relieved that
Harry Legore is with the squad and
eligible for football. 1t will be re-
membered that Legore was removed
from the team in the middle of the
1915 season because it was discover
ed that he had violated Yale's rules
regarding summer baseball. His loss
broke up the backfield, and there was
fear that he would not be allowed to
return to the game this fall. But
now that he is back he gives Yale
splendid kicker, one who can drop
and place kick as well as punt, an
expert in the use of the forward pass
and q handy man for all other de-
partments Of play.
1t is now re ported that Braden, the
wonderful end who was ineligible last
year. will be shifted to the backfield
this fall. The caches have visions
of him starring as a halfback. He
ought to be q good running mate for
Legore.
Tad Jones, the new coach, is de-
voting most of his spare time to the
discovery or development Of quar-
terback. Jones was one of Yale's
greatest quarterbacks himself some
eight years ago, and he knows the
importance Of the position. What he
wants is a man who can play the
position well and who is a leader.
Yale hasn't had such man for some
time, and at the end of two weeks Of
preliminary practice he isn't yet in
sight Van Nostrand, who was the
final selection for this position last
year, is still available, but apparently
Jones wants to improve on him
