ONLY SUBSTITUTES

IN CRIMSON FIGHT

Cambridge, Mass. Nov. 16.-The
Harvard Athletic association announc-
ed last night that few, if any, Of the
players who started the game against
Princeton last Saturday would be in
the Crimsons initial lineup against
Brown at the stadium next Saturday
The Harvard coaching staff, it was
explained had made this decision In
order to avoid possible injuries to
first strong men and to give the sub
stitutes who may be used against Yale
experience in a hard game. The as
sociation added that the team that
would start would be "by no means q
weak one"
The announcement Of the associa-
ton included a notice that tickets
purchased with the expectation of see
Ing leading players start the game
would be redeemed

second team. Later when the second

are regarded as likely to start in the
game against Brown next Saturday,
neither team was able to score.

uled to play the Brown second team

Cambridge. Mass, Nov. 1y.-Eddie
Casey looks sure to be Harvard's grid
iron hero this season. 1t would hard
ly do to say that Casey is another
Brickley or another Mahan, though
he is probably as valuable as either
Of these stars. Casey resembles
neither of the former stars and yet 1t
ward history will be linked with their
coaches and players declare that
Casey shows every sign of becoming
as great If not greater player than
the illustrious Mahan and this in spite
Of the fact that he Is not remarkable
as kicker and is also one of the
smallest backs on any of the big grid
irons Casey weighs scarcely $50
pounds. His forte is running with the
ball
With his wonderful speed Casey
has remarkable endurance and is the
most elusive runner on an open field
the game has seen for some while.
He has a peculiar manner Of running
down the field at great speed and yet
with movement of the legs that
makes him very hard to tackle. In
the recent Cornell game at different
times he made long gains when it
seemed that every player on the Cor
nell team was there to lay him low.
But he manages to worm through
them all.
Though small. Casey comes out Of
the hardest scrimmages as fresh as
can be and he has been the biggest
part Of the Harvard offense. He car
ries the ball three out Of five times
and is always hard at work. He US
ually appears after an hour of kruel-
ling play without mark on him and
apparently unwinded.

VARSITY
PREPARES FOR BATTLE
WITH YALE SATURDAY

Princeton, N. J.. Nov. 1s.-rhe
Princeton varsity football eleven was
given a hard scrimmage this after
noon, the first since the Harvard
game. With Eddie Hart driving
them, the varsity players rushed the
scrub eleven off its feet. Moore was
back at half back on the first team
and tore through the second teams
line time and again for substantial
gains. Moore probably will be called
upon to do most Of the offensive work
against Yale on Saturday.
The Princeton coaches have chang
ed their original plans and will give
the team little more scrimmaee
work tomorrow. Eberstadt was in
the varsity backfeld today for tho
first time in several weeks ana It 10
expected that he will be used in the
Yale game.
Dave Tthbott. the drop kicker. was
on the field practicing kicking but
was not used in the scrimmage work.
The varsity lined up as follows:
Htghely, left end; Halsey, left tack
le; Nourse. left guard; Gennert. CEN
tor: Hogg, right guard; McGraw, right
tackle: Wilson. right end; Eddy. quar-
tor back; Ames, left half back:
Moore. right half back; DriRgs. full

Bert Daniels. former Yankee and
later Louisville outfielder, has held.
for several seasons. a baseball record
that he may be able to hold undisput-
ed for some while to come. 1t isn't
likely that many players are anxious
to surpass Daniels in that particular
department Of the game. His record
Is getting three passes in three success
sive innings for being struck on the
head by wild heave.
Daniels made the record several
years ago while playing with the
Yanks against Washington. In spite
Of the fact that ball players have
been given first base in this way many
times since no one else has done so
we'll as Daniels.
Last season the bean-ball stirred
up lots of arguments at different
times. especially the well-known one
between Washington and Boston
which resulted In a setto between
Clark Griffith and Sam Agnew. But
efforts are being made to keep the
bean-ball out Of the game and it's
probable that only a small percentage
Of pitches that strike players on the
head are deliberate.
Last season the Chicago White
Sox and the Pittsburgh Pirates were
the martyrs and received more biffs
on the bean than any other clubs.

Phantom to Mix at Win

End of the Eighth.

Winnipeg, Man, Nov. 16.-Can
Tommy Gibbons stop the rugged Joe
Herrick in less than eight rounds in
their return struggle at the Walker
theater tonight? This is the question
that local boxing fans are asking each
other since the younger member OF
the famous Gibbons family has re-
marked that he intends to make
short work of the Kewanee battler.
Those who were fortunate enough to
witness the stirring battle between
these maulers on their last meeting
cannot figure that Tommy will be
able to get his burly opponent in less
than twelve rounds II the form shown
in the last bout can be taken as
criterion. OF course. Tommy may
not have been at his best and as it
was his first scrap of the season there
may have been an excuse for not be-
ing at his best. But at any rate Her
rick showed enough stuff to prove
that he is no novice at the boxing
game and that no boxer can take
chances with him. They meet at 100
pounds at p. m.
That the interest is very keen is
shown by the fact that never before
has the advance seat sale of boxing
bout at the Walker theater been so
heavy on the opening day Of the sale
as it was yesterday when the sale Of
pasteboards was opened. All day
tickets and indications are bright for

teams might have amused the fans.
None of the players beaned this
past season were seriously injured or
MANNED for life. However, a number
Of the blows were severe enough to
cause a little suffering. Mordecai
Brown of the Cubs broke the nose Of
Jimmy Johnston Of the Dodgers and
Al Mamaux of the Pirates sent Art
Fletcher of the Giants to Bonesetter
Reese with a badly bunged head. Dave
Davenport Of the Browns broke Jack
Barry's hand and kept him out Of the
big series and Oscar Witt Of the Tigers
was pretty badly stung by Joe Bush.
George Foster Of the Red Sox nearly
croaked Chick Gandil of the Cleve-
land Indians with a blow on the
head and Carl Mays of the Red sox
struck Cap Mcbride of the Senator's,
thus precipitating the scrap above
mentioned. Aside from these there
were few beaned players who could
complain about it.
