back, Arrives to Aid
Princeton.

Princeton, N. j., Oct. 4.-rhs varsity
squad was only given a light work
out to-day and only got into a scrim-
mage for about five minutes toward
the end Of the afternoons work.
Forward passing came in for most
attention, and the different tossing
formations were run over time after
time. The personnel of the first eleven
was the same as IL has been all the
week, except that Highley and Wilson
were at the ends in place of Funk and
Rahlll. In the short scrimmage with
the scrub the varsity men easily
walked down the field for a touch
down, making most of their gains by
straight rushing through the line.
Buzz Law, the star halfback Of last
years team, arrived in Princeton to
help out with the coaching, and was
on the field this afternoon helping the
kickers. Parisette, who did the kick
ing-of for the team last year. is in

Cyril Haas has been getting off the

of Dave Tibbott may have been dis
covered in Ernie Haaren, who placed
six drop kicks in succession over the
bar from varying distances toward the
close of the afternoons practice.

HAUGHTON SEES
HARVARD SQUAD
In HARD DRILL
Scrubs Make Merry with
Several Regulars Out
of Practice.

Cambridge, Mass, Oct. 4.-The Har-
ward coaches put on another drive this
afternoon, although several Of the first
string players were held from the line
up. Percy Haughton came out to the
held for the first time this year, watch
ing the work Of the eleven carefully,
but doing no coaching. He will be
out regularly as soon as the worlds
series is over.
B. G. Waters. the 1898 captain, ap-
peared on the field this afternoon for
the first time in years. He took off
his coat and worked with the linemen
on some good old-fashioned football.
The varsity scored twice on the sec
ond team, although Taylor, Dadmun,
Harte, Flower and Harris were not in
the lineup. There were some good
gains made by the first team, with
Casey IN the backfield, and two long
journeys up the field resulted in Bond
and Burnham carrying the ball back Of
the scrubs goal.
The second team took advantage of
the absence of so many of the first
string men from the varsity lineup
and were able TO make two scores, be-
sides a touchdown, which was not al
lowed. The scrubs received the ball on
the 'varsity's 2C-yard line several times,
CHM making a field goal from 25-yard
point and Ellison scoring a touchdown
on a series of line gains. Ellison later
made a 5O-yard run-back Of a kick,
after which the scrubs drove straight
to the varsity goal, but were held for
downs under the post.

NEW PLAYERS REPORT
TO STEVENS SQUAD

The Stevens squad was put through
a long, hard practice yesterday. Fall
ing on the ball and tackling completed
the days work. A blackboard talk
lasting half an hour, then followed. In
this talk the various plays, offensive
and defensive formations were gone
over IN a thorough manner.
This was followed by sharp signal
practice 20 emphasize the various plays
and formations depicted on the black
board.
The lnemen and punters then prac-
tised getting OF kicks, which the backs
ran back. Three teams then ran
through thirty minutes Of scrimmage.
The second team was often able TO
tear the varsity line open. allowing
the backs to gain four or five yards at
q clip.

PENN. STATE VARSITY
STOP FORWARD PASSING

State College, Penn, Oct. dick
Harlow, head coach Of Pennsylvania
States football eleven, was happy to-
day when he saw his men Illustrate the
elaborate forward passing attack
launched against the regulars by the
freshmen, not one pass out OF forty
three attempts being successful.
The freshmen used all the formations
that the varsity expects Blackwell to
employ here on Saturday. The failure
of these plays to dent States stalwart
defence indicates tough opposition for
the Lewisburg teams passing game.
In the twenty-minute scrimmage, the
first year men made only two first
downs. Ochsenreiter, the plucky half
back from Washington, ripped through
the varsity line for both OF them.
Robb registered for the regulars on
the first play after the kick of, running
seventy-eight yards.

Hard Scrimmage with Sec
ond Team Reveals
Great Power.

Not an injury marred the football
practice at Columbia yesterday after
noon for the first time in several days,
and in consequence Nelson Metcalf was
able TO put the varsity eleven through
the hardest drill of the preliminary
season. Metcalf made few changes in
either the long signal drill or the half
hour scrimmage which followed, and it
seems certain that he has finally deter
mined upon the lineup 10 be used
against Hamilton in the opening battle
on Saturday.
Because of the numerous misfortuncs
which have befallen the squad in the
last few days, Metcalf mas been forced
to reconstruct the team almost entirely
in the backfield and at the ends, its two
weakes: POINTS. What little hope there
was that Howard Miller, the star quar-
terback. would be able 10 play against
Hamilton, even for a minute, was dls-
PEELED by the announcement that not
only will he be unable 20 play against
the team from Clinton, but there is
little chance of his getting into. the
lineup against Vermont week from
SATURDAY. lie was on the field yester-
dav and had 10 use cane.
The revamped varsity showed a
world Of power against the strong sec
ond eleven in q gruelling serimmage'
and twice battered its way across the
goal line of the scrubs. Fred Dunn,
who has drawn halfback assignment
because Of his punting ability, was the
FIRST 10 take the pigskln over from run
of tackle, while RaImondo, who was
sensation at Dewitt Clinton two sea-
sons ago, made the other score on
drive through centre. 49,.
Lech Zychlinski, the Polish addition
10 the team, stood out by reason OF ms
wonderful running with the ball. lie
reeled of half a dozen spectacular
dashes down the field, and II took from
TWO 10 half a dozen tacklers TO bring
him 10 earth. He promises TO be the
sensation of the year II his play IN
actual battle is at all comparable with
mis- smashing tactics In practice.
Netcalf would not state that he had
finally named the men who will face
Hamilton. 1t appears that the ends
will be John Kennedy and John Brown,
both of whom are playing their hrst
vear Of college football. Captain JEFF
Healy and Buddy Wilbur will be the
tackles. and Jim Cleveland and Jack
Donaldson the guards, with Joe Brown
rounding out the centre trio.
Paimondo has the call at quarter
b,ck. DESPITE the fact that Metcalf be-
iieves Henry Monroe the best quarter
back on the squad outside Of Miller;
Monroe, however. is so sorely needed
81 fullback that he will play that posi-
ton. Dunn will play part Of the time
az quarter il anything happens to RAJ
monde, otherwise he will be al rlght
half. Hegerman and Cochrah' WIZ
Zvcblinskis make up the balance Of the
bsck6eld contingent, and each one vii
get q chance TO show what he is worth
against the Hamilton eleven: ,,

OLD MEN LIKELY

Munro, Tichborne and Ferris,
Tried Oarsmen, Ready

Although the university committee on
athletics decided against scheduling a

Morningside Heights yesterday when 1t
was announced that II. NJ. Tichborne

season, and r. X. Munro, bow in the
eight which beat Yale a year ago, would
probably row in the spring.
Tichborne has gained his parents
permission to row again, provided his
scholastic work does not suffer, and
Ferris, too, has won over his parents.
Munro has recovered sufficiently from
a. operation he underwent in the
spring to be able to row again. The

the first call.
Rice spent yesterday moving the
baryes and shells from summer quar-
ters in the Gould boathouse TO the
Edgewater house, from which all row
ing will b. done, as heretofore, Prac-
tice will probably continue for SIX
weeks, and the season will be concluded

INJURIES CUT
DOWN SQUAD IN
N. Y. U. PRACTICE
Four Players Injured on
Eve of Game with Rens-
selaer Poly.

Hard luck has at last broken into
the New York University football camp
and did a tremendous lot of damage at
the practice yesterday afternoon on
Ohio Field. -Four Of the Violet grid
iron warriors were carried OF the field
suffering from injuries OF every de-
scription.
Pete Sokolower, the Violet's star
tackle and centre last season, was the
first 20 be removed from the field. He
is suffering from a wrenched knee.
which will probably keep him out or
the lineup against Rensselaer, Poly on
Saturday. Thompson, the end, who
has been doing well, was Knocked un-
conscious and received bad twist OF
his ankle, as well. He was soon re
vived.
Two backfeld men, Nash and War
man, were also put on the list of the
injured. Nash was severely kicked on the
knee and had to be carried TO the
dressing rooms. Nash has done such
splendid playing that Eustis is using
him as a substitute for Howard Cam.
Warman is another halfback. lie
sprained his ankle while carrying the
ball on a line bucking play.
The misfortunes yesterday bring the
hospital list up 20 six, who will be out
of the game temporarily. Howard Cam,
last years Violet star, was unable 70
practise yesterday on account OF the
injury he received on Monday after
noon during a punting drill. Hammer
schlag, from Colby. is nursing
wreuched shoulder and expects TO be IN
the Haverford game, which comes
week from Saturday. Several others
are suffering from minor injuries, but
have not been put under special treat
mont.
The workout yesterday afternoon on
Ohio Field was a regular game between
two picked teams of the squad. No
score was kept, but several tallies were
made. The scrub eleven, which was
made up Of second and third string
men, gave the varsity hard fight and
tore through the line and around the
ends for repeated gains. The varsity
defence crumbled before the vicious on
slaughts of the second team.

All Events in Lexington
Meeting Won in Straight
Heats.

Lexington, Ky, Oct. 4.-Ons worlds
record and two season records we're
broken at the third day Of the Ken
lucky Horse Breeders Association
meeting here to-day.
The worlds record was broken when
Lee Axworthy, IN al effort to break
the track record OF 2;02 for trotting
stations, made by Peter Volo last year,
lowered his own worlds record to
1882.
Lucule Spier, the worlds champion
mare on a half-mile track, went TO beat
2:O5 and trotted the mile in 2:03.,
which is the seasons mark for trotting
mares, and Roam Hal, in winning the
Board of Commerce Stake for 200
PAGERS, went the second mile in 2:0OA,
which is also the seasons mark for
pacing geldings.
All the races to-day were decided by
straight heats.
Lee Axworthy's performance was the
sterling effort of the week. The son
Of Guy Axworthy never faltered IN trav-
cling his mile. maintaining his speed
until he reached the wire. though for
an instant he showed signs Of firing
at the sixteenth pole. His fastest
quarter was the third. which he trot-
ted in 2sA seconds A stiff wind, cl-
most full up the stretch, hindered him

paced by two runners.

Improvement Necessary if Yale
Is to Win Against Vir-
ginia Team.

New Haven, Conn, Oct. 4.-Practice
for the Yale eleven was light this af-
ternoon because Of the extreme heat
and because the players have shown ef-
fects of the strenuous work which mas
been ordered daily the last week.
The squad was kept at work IN the
bowl only an hour, and all but hfteen
minutes of this was devoted 70 rugged
drill OF the fundamentals. Tackling,
interfering and blocking were strenu,
ously rehearsed. Head Coach Tad
Jones admitted tonight that he was
disappointed in the work of the team
in the game last Saturday in these par
ticulars. The coaches feel that I'M
provement is necessary if Yale IS 70

next Saturday with clean slate.
Legore and Bingham, Of the back
field, were laid off, Stewart and Neville
succeeding them. Neville has been Lee
cores understudy all the season, but
Stewart has worked his way gradually
from a scrub position because Of re-
markable defensive showing. Ross,
freshman centre last year, was given
the snapback position to-day, and Red
field. of the third Team, was tried at
right end. Durfee again had Captain
Blacks place at left guard. but Black
will be ready for the game on Satur-
day. it was stated tonight.
The varsity eleven was unable 20
register a touchdown during the fifteen
minute playing period and was twice
held for downs by the scrubs, Jacques
