BARRED FOR FAILURE
TO HEED WARNING

Ithaca, n. Y, Nov. 2S.-Directly OPP
posite views have been taken by the
Cornell faculty committee on student
affairs in deciding on the appeals of
two Cornell varsity baseball players
against summer baseball bans placed
early this fall by the athletic authori-
ties. Captain Francis Clary, of Seneca
Falls. the best catcher Cornell has
known in some time, has been declared
ineligible for the 1917 season for play
ing in games last summer where gate
receipts were taken by the teams, while
Clayton Wolford. Of Ithaca, substitute
infelder last spring, was declared eli
gible though he played in the same
games with Clary.
The reason for these two holdings
was given in the way the players
obeyed the warnings sent out by the
athletic association. Captain Clary
played a game after he received warn
ing, while Wolford did not Valentine,
regular outfelder, who also was re-
Gently released from the ban, also
stopped playing following the issuing
of the official warnings.

Final Drill, Which Lasts
Two Hours

The Fordham University eleven went

Coach Gargan drove the players
through a hard and varied two-hour
programme.
After the squad had practised get

to be used in to-morrow's game were
rehearsed in a brisk signal drill and
then effectiveness tried out in short

The result was satisfactory from =

The varsity players also worked at q
defensive drill against the forward

head attack of their opponents. Villa.

little trouble by their delayed passes,
making their, two scores by this route.
The Maroon defence, however. ha.

Dan O'Connell, the fullback, who had
three ribs smashed in the Georgetown

first time since that contest O'Connell
will not play against Villanova, how
ever. Coach Frank Gargan said last
night he would use the same lineup

BROWN SCORES
FOUR TIMES IN
SCRUB WORKOUT

Providence, Nov. 2s.-The Brown
football players had their final scrim-
mage this afternoon, the varsity bat
thing against the seconds for nearly an
hour. The varsity scored four times
in straight line plunges, and Devltalls
booted half dozen goals from place
ment at distances from the 20-yard
line to the 40-yard line.
The varsity looked great against the
seconds. and if they show the same
kind of football on Thursday Colgate
is in for the time Of its life. The
coaches gave the entire squad of forty
five men a chance to work during the
scrimmage. Every man got into his
position before the curtain was rung
down at darkness.
All the men are in grand shape. in
fact better shape than they have been
before this season. Robinson will be
well fortified in the line of substitutes

Rutgers Works in Dark
With WhiteWQShed Ball
Sanford's Team Out for
Revenge Against Eleven
from Pennsylvania

New Brunswick, N. j., Nov. 2S.-The
last hard scrimmage practice Of the
year was held by the Rutgers team
to-day in preparation for their con-
test with Washington and Jefferson at
the Polo Grounds on Thursday. The
practice was held behind closed gates,
and it lasted until nearly 6 o'clock. a
whitewashed ball being used by the
team.
Sanford's lineup for the New York
game is now practically decided upon,
and il will probably be just the same
"a that which faced Dickinson on Sat
urday. In the second half the regu-
lar backheld combination will be used.
John Whitehill, the newly discov-
cred star at fullback, revealed further
ability to-day in throwing the forward
pass. Hitherto Wittpenn has been the
only man who could be relied on Tor
this play, and as he is in rather poor
condition it was feared he could not
be used. but Whitehill is fully as good
at heaving the ball.
That Rutgers is going after the
Presidents with the most varied attack
that has been seen this season was re-
vealed by to-day's practice. Rutgers
has an old score to settle for the de-
feat at the Polo Grounds two years
ago, and the coaches have been saving
lot Of good plays for this game.
They will all be in evidence on Thurs
day. :,
Both the straight, plunging attack
that has been used all year and the
open game, which has added strength
through the addition of Whitehill, will
be used. Sanford also has worked out
several forward passes and other plays
from multiple kick formation which
are calculated to have the Pennsyl,,
vania boys worried. He spent a lot Of
time to-day drilling the ends, the
weakest spot on the team all season.

There is real scare among the golf
professionals over the shortage of hick-
DRY shafts. Good shafts are command

there is no chance that they will ever

that there are few small trees left.

So far as trying to force corner TO

We are doing this in selfprotection."
The price of hickory shaft few
years ago was 20 cents. To-day It is
hard to get a good one for rs cents,
and it would not be out Of reason TO
see them as high as a dollar.

CORNELL SHOWS
SKILL IN USING
FORWARD PASS
Shiverick Does Hurling-Muel-
Ter Has Close Call
on Train

Atlantic City. N. j., Nov. 2s.-The
Cornell football squad to-day studied
and thrashed out methods Of check
ing the Red and Blue machine of Bob
Folweil. 1t was apparent at both
signal drill this afternoon and black
board talk tonight that Dr. Sharpe
had profted bs his trips to watch
Penn play at Ann Arbor against Mich
igan and again last Saturday against
West Virginia Wesleyan.
The same team lined up in practice
ills afternoon which beat Michigan.
Shiverick ran tho varsity with speed.
Benedict piloted the Penn" team. Tho
method of attack Cornell will start
on Franklin Field Thursday became
evident at the outset Of the practice.
Shiverick uncorked some aerial passes
from mysterious formations to Eek
ley and Ryerson, the ends, that sur
prised even those in close touch with
the work at Ithaca. Duke" Mueller
and Hoffman are also prepared TO take
up the work in event of injury to
either of the former stars.
Drop kicking and punting are the best
bet Of Cornell against Penn. Practice
work of the Ithacans' mainstays IN
this department left no doubt as to
their ability. Shiverick dropped the
pigskin over the various angles in prac-
tice work, and many punts went for
more than seventy yards.
Lucien Mueller captain and fullback,
had a narrow escape from serious in
jury or possible death when a bullet
crashed through a window of the train
as he was on his way to join his team
mates here. The bullet is believed to
have been fired by hunting party.
Mueller was asleep at the time, and
fortunately had his eyes and face pro-
tected when the broken glass spattered
about his head and face. A woman in
the seat behind him was badly cut
about the face. The shooting took
place in wooded section. about half
hours ride out CT Atlantic City.

Penn Coach Tells Eleven
Cornell Will Fight Hard
Folwell Fears OverCOntl-
dence on Part of His Men
Williams Ill

Philadelphia, Nov. 2s.-The Red and
Blue eleven whirled through the final
workout for the Cornell game this af-
ternoon at the Whitemarsh Valley
Country Club, and six plays that Penn
sylvania managed to retain unused in
the Michigan game were the chief
forms Of attack employed by Folwel!s
band.
Folwell fears over-confdence on the
part Of his warriors, and he used
verbal spur on his team this afternoon,
telling the men Cornell was going to
make one desperate fight throughout
the entire combat, and that il Pennsyl-
yania loafed an instant IL could expect
nothing but defeat. Bell drove the
varsity this afternoon In the signal
drill.
"Gravey" Williams will be unable to
get into the Pennsylvania lineup for
the Thanksgiving Day classic. The util-
ity halfback who would have had the
first call as understudy for either Of
the Quaker backs in the event of Sc
rious injury Thursday, was taken to the
university hospital this afternoon. The
nature of his illness was not given out.
This turn in the Penn football affairs
comes as a heavy blow to the Red and
Blue. Williams, although he did not
have a regular berth, was a valuable
man and his services no doubt will be
missed when Cornell is met.
Big Bill Hollenback, coach Of SYRIA
cuse, attended football practice this
afternoon and gave some valuable ad-
vice 10 Head Coach Folwell. Hollen-
back has seen Cornell this fall, and also
has learned many things about the play
Of DR.. Sharpe's men. He followed the
varsity in signal drill and corrected
few of the mistakes which would
have been fatal in the Cornell game.
Reggie Hutchinson, OF Yale, also was
present and gave some pointers to the
bsekield men and kickers.

Howard Cam Elected CAPTAIN
OF N. Y. u. Football Eleven

Howard Cam, of the class of 1917.
was elected captain of New York
University's football eleven for next
season yesterday. He defeated Pete
Sokolower, right tackle of the team.
Cam has played in the backfield for
two years, and is one OF the out
standing stars of the eleven. Harry
Guntzer, a junior, was chosen manager
and AL Gruninger, of the class OF 1919
was made assistant manager.

Il was at Commerce that Cam
learned the rudiments Of football. He
won "a place on the 1912 team, which
was one Of the best teams that ever
represented the school. He started at
tackle. but his great speed and power
as a line plunger, combined with his
ability as a punter, caused the coaches
10 shift him to the backfleld.
The following year he broke his
ankle and was lost 10 the team. in
1914 Cam entered Dartmouth and won
his place on the freshman eleven. but
he left the Hanover college to take up
his work at New York.
Athletic ability is bred in the Cam
family. Teddie Cam. Towards young
brother, is football player of no mean
ability, and has won several swimming
championships. Recently Ted toured
the country and visited the Hawaiian
Islands, where he defeated the best
men sent against him. He is the ma
tional 500-ysrd champion.
Rivalry is keen between the brothers.
Last night Howard said: Remember.
I'm not Iedford's brother. He is IN

who holds the l00-yard junior national
record in swimming is a fair sort Of
