GREEN ELEVEN
IN BIG SLUMP,
SAYS MENTOR

Hanover, n. H., Oct ga thorough
resume Of the mistakes made by the
Green in Saturdays game with George
town was in order at the Dartmouth
football camp to-day. Coach Csva-
naugh then spent the remaining time
in a stiff signal drill behind closed
gates.
When asked for a statement concern
ing the defeat by the Southerners, the
Dartmouth coach made no alibis. but
said: "No one could attribute the de-
feat to anything less than bad slump
80 far as Dartmouth was concerned.
The work this week is bound to be
hard and exacting, for Dartmouth's big
game OF the season is due next Satur-
day. with Princeton as an opponent.
The Hanover hospital squad was IN.
creased Saturday, when Healey injured
his knee and S. Holbrook, quarterback,
was forced out of the game with
splintered rib. The other cripples,
Merrill, the veteran guard, and Leh-
man, a backfeld man. are expected to
be in shape by the last Of the week and
should have an even chance OF getting
into the Princeton contest

PENN DEVOTES
SPECIAL DAY
TO TRICKERY
Scrubs Will Emulate Pitt In
Long Scrimmage Wednes-
day Afternoon

Philadelphia, Oct. 23.-Captain Math-
ews and Howard Berry were excused
from practice this afternoon. but the
other members Of the team who took
part in the game against Penn State
last Saturday were out in uniform.
Coach Folwell sent them through q
short signal drill and let them 60 to
the showers early.
Charley Henning, who was recently
operated On for appendicitis. was In
uniform and took part in signal prac-
tice this afternoon. However. there Is
no chance for him to get into action
before the Dartmouth game.
The second varsity and scrubs were
sent through twenty-minute scrim-
mage. and that was the only hard work
out on the field. Tomorrow Coach Fol-
we'll plans to give the varsity only a
light drill. Wednesday will be the big
day, when the scrubs face the regulars
in the longest scrimmage Of the week.
Folwell intends 10 try out all his
new plays. mapped out especially foII
Warmers benefit. II these succeed
against the husky scrubs the Penn men
tor believes they will be effective
against the Pitt boys also.

STIFF DEFENCE
FOR ITHACANS,
HAUGHTON AIM
Wizard, Meanwhile, Will Also
TRY to Provide More
Versatile Attack

Cambridge, Mass, Oct. 23.-The first
work Percy Haughton did to-day toward
preparing the Harvard football team
for the Cornell game was to take the
entire varsity squad to the locker
building and outline the campaign for
the week. The Crimson, which has
been using the simplest OF plays 70
date. will be provided with a better
and more versatile attack than II hAd
a year ago, when the Ithacans won, III
to O.; and while much Of the coming
week will be devoted to bolstering the
Crimson's defences for the Ithacans'
offence. the team will smooth out some
new plays which were begun in the
Stadium last week.
Crimson Cripples Recovering
The head coach will be able to work
almost his entire squad soon, Bond be-
Ing the only player who now looks as
if he could not get into play at date
longer than a week away. Clark, VINO
was badly bruised in the Massachusetts
State game, was not in the signal line
up, Day again taking his place, "hlIc
Gamer, who will be all right in day
or two, relinquished his place at right
tackle to Lowell, who has not played
for nearly two weeks.
The work Of Wheeler at left tackle
has been so uniformly good that il now
looks as if he would remain a fxture.
Taylor, however, will be out this week
for hard work, but it is not likely that
he or Sweetser will be started In the
game against Cornell. Robinson was
in charge Of the team at quarter, Muir
ray having the substitute. Casey,
Horween and Thacher all took part in
the drill, and will be worked to start
against Cornell and probably TO play
the first half. Horween's kicking has
been improving all along, and he is
now the surest man behind scrimmage.
Two New Men Join Squad
Two new players Joined the squad
to-day. One was Lancaster. who played
q splendid game for the second team
last year, and the other was Parker,
one Of the best Of the freshman line
men last year until hurt. Both these
players are in good trim, having just
returned from the Mexican border.

FORDHAM SETS
TO WORK FOR
ELECTION DAY

Fordham Is pointing to the football
game with Georgetown. which will be
played at Fordham Field on Election
Day. Frank Gargan. head coach Of the
Maroon, had his squad out for long
drill yesterday. drill which. II light,
was none the less spirited. Punting
and catching OF punts occupied the
best part of an hour. The ends were
sent down under the kicks. but no
tackling was permitted. Then a couple
Of plays which will be used against
Georgetown were run through and
work was suspended for the afternoon.
Frank Gargan looks forward to a
hard game against Georgetown. The
Southerners defeated Dartmouth last
Saturday, and that furnishes a clear
limo on their power and versatility.
The Maroon team Is handicapped Just
now through the injury Of several first
string players. Cochran has a bad
knee and McNamara is laid up with a
wrenched shoulder. Added TO this list
is Calnnn, whose arm is infected. so

BATTERED NAVY
ELEVEN GIVEN
LIGHT DRILL

Annapolis, Oct 23.-After the stiff
game they had to play to win from
West Virginia on Saturday the MILDLY
gridiron warriors were given tho light
est sort Of exercise this afternoon. The
usual Monday drills interfered with the
practice period, and the start was not
made until late. The coaches went back
to forward pass drilling, and long shots
were the kind to which most attention
was devoted. Jones was given a try
out at centre during the practice. which
consisted very largely of formation
drill and signal work. Sutler, at full,
and Roberts. at right half, were each
given try-out, and showed up we'll,
having apparently recovered entirely
from the injuries they received in the
Pitt game a week ago.

New Haven, Oct 23.-Disregarding
the effects Of an operation for the abb
scess on his ankle, Captain Black OF
the Yale eleven to-day resumed scrim-
maging, and insists that he will prac-
tise all the week and will line up
against Washington and Jefferson next
Saturday. He suffered no i'll effects
whatever from to-day's work. His COM
panion guard. Gait, played with his
hand heavily bandaged. because Of the
broken bone received in the Lehigh
game
Bob Bingham was the only player
laid of to-day because Of Illness. He
has a sore throat, but was in uni
form on the side lines. Harold
Carey, the most valuable backfield
member of the freshman eleven last
year, was assigned Bingham's position
and in the absence Of Quarterback
Traver Smith the veteran Van Nos
trsnd ran the eleven.
May Play Hutchinson
The condition of Callahan's ankle to-
day made 1t certain that he will not
attempt TO play till next week. and his
centre rush understudy, Jack Norys
will not play for even a longer period.
Rex Hutchinson was again installed at
snap-back to-day The coaches intend
starting him against Washington and
Jefferson next Saturday. His passing
to-day showed decided improvement:
Quarterback Smith was on the side
lines, and will resume scrimmaging by
Wednesday and will run the eleven in
next Saturdays game. Chester La
roche. second string quarterback. has
a muscle bruise and will probably not
play before next week.
Twenty minutes driving scrimmag-
ing and as much more OF rush-line
blocking drill were the order Of the day.

Click Aids Tigers in
Back Field Coaching

on the injured list, got in scrimmage
with the second team against the fresh
men to-day. The latter made a credit
able showing against the second string
men.
Freshman Backs Promising
Several of the freshman backs, nota-
bly, Riggs, Strubing and Afford, will be
welcome additions to the varsity when
the present senior class graduates. Ten
of the eleven men who started against
Lafayette were seniors, and practically
all the backfield substitutes are also.
Wilson is the only first string man who
will not graduate this June.
Fumbling has been the coachs' chief
indictment against the team for sew
eral weeks. To-day Mr.. Rush was Civ
ing his attention to the scrimmage be-
tween the second and the freshmen,
and several of the for.her who fumbled
were almost Immediately replaced By
other men. All the gains in the world
cannot score a touchdown unless pos
session of the ball is kept, and this
trouble Is being treated with ungloved
hands.
Scarce on Tackles
Tackles have been pretty scarce arti-
cles at Princeton this fall, and so the
addition of Phil Kaufman to the squad
this afternoon WAS a welcome one.
Kaufman was a substitute last year.
1t is not yet certain whether ne will
be eligible this year, because one Of his
examinations has yet TO be heard from.
The backfeld combination is as un-
decided as before the Lafayette game,
and the recovery of Moore and Haas
will further complicate matters. The
Dartmouth game should decide the
question for good.

Because the varsity were opposed

There was not a single round Of the

he had the skill as well. His left hand

Astey, and working a we'll timed jab
