AMHERST COUNTS
ON A VICTORY
WITH TRINITY

Amherst Mass, Nov. Amherst is
looking to next Saturday Tor the first
victory of the season. Coach Riley has
been working hard trying 10 bolster up
the defence and hopes to have the men
able to stop anything Trinity may un-
cover. Although some of the regulars
were missing varsity backs found lit
tie trouble in smashing through the
scrub consistently for long gains.
Captain Goodrich. who hurt his ankle
in the Wesleyan game last Saturday,
has not been allowed to take part in
any of the rough work, although he is
out on the field daily. 1t is hoped,
however, that he will be in the lineup
against Trinity. Knauth, regular right
guard, injured his leg in the scrlm-
mage this afternoon, but he, too, prob
ably will be in condition by Saturday.
Schmid, who won a regular JOB IN
the backfeld in the game at Middle
town. is in the inhrmary with ton
sillitis. 1t was feared yesterday that
he had dphtheria, which would have
been the second case of the season
among the football men. 1t is expected
now, however, that he will be out on
the field again in d week.

SANFORD TRIES
TO DEVELOP NEW
ENDS FOR TEAM

New Brunswick, n. j., Nov. 1.-The
Rutgers varsity football squad was out
in full force to-day for the first time
since last week and had half hour
scrimmage. Jack Wallace was tried
out in place OF Kelly, who will be out
all season as a result of injuries re-
ceived in the Brown game. wallace
showed considerable speed, and he is
a harder hitting back than Kelly.
Another man was lost TO the squad
when Bowlby, substitute fullbsck, broke
two fingers on his right hand. II is
not likely that he will get back in the
lineup.
Sanford is trying hard to develop a
couple of good ends, as he believes that
is where the one weakness Of the Rut-
gers team lies. Brown was unable 10
penetrate the line once, all its gains
being made around the wings. Hauser
has displaced Wittpenn, temporarily at
least. and several new men were tried
out to-day at the other end position

PIPING ROCK WOMEN
WIN TITLE AT GOLF

The Piping Rock women's golf team
was declared the winner of the met
ropolitan championship yesterday, when
the game scheduled for Englewood was
called off. This left Piping Rock with
three victories TO one for Englewoon'
Knollwood, the other contestant, faii-
ing 10 win one victory. The best the
Westchester team could do was to tie
Englewood, but as there was no pro-
vision made for playing of this game
Englewood could not hope TO tie her
Long Island rivals.
The Piping Rock team had compaI-
atively easy time OF II in the Long ~,
and section Of the metropolitan district
during the summer months, but they
outclassed their Westchester and New
Jersey opponents, who met them in the
three-cornered play-of for the cham
pionship, by an even wider margin.

TIGER CAPTAIN
PUTS SOME VIM
IN HIS ELEVEN

Princeton, y. j., Nov. 1.-The Prince
ton football squad showed more life
this afternoon than il has since before
the Dartmouth game. The listless play
ing which has been so noticeable for
the last week was not so evident this
afternoon with Captain Trevor Hogg
back in the scrimmage. lie seemed TO
put fight into the whole team. and the
playing was harder and more confident.
None of the three first string quar-
terbacks was in the scrimmage. Eddy
has not played since Saturday, and
Ames is also nursing a slight injury
received in the Dartmouth game. Both
were on the field this afternoon watch
ing Ernie Haaren guide the varsity.
Comey did not play.
Under the leadership of Quarterback
Freck the scrub gave the varsity a
strong dose of Harvard plays. The
first eleven did better than yesterday,
but it could not keep the scrub from
making good gains on the Haughton
formations. Each varsity player is
being coached for his particular man
in these formations, so that the Grim
son machine will be met by the full
force OF the Princeton team.
This week all the likely varsity can
didates will have chance to show why
they should start the big games. Three
pairs of ends are being used. Highley
and Wilson seem TO be the choice, but
VIM and Funk are a heavier pair and
are almost as fast. The third pair OF
wings is Rahill and Gillespie. They
are not of the same calibre as the
others, but in pinch they would be
useful.
When Latrobe vas hurt two weeks
ago he was easily first choice for right
tackle, but while he was getting back
in shape Kaufman and Halsey report
ed for scrimmage and McGraw i'm.
proved remarkably. Now the four OF
them are in a fight to see whether La
trobe can regain his position.

NEW YORK TARS
BEAT ARKANSAS
AT BASKETBALL

An aggressive style of basketball was
shown by the sailors Of the first divi-
sion Of the Atlantic Fleet, who are en-
gaging in the championship tournament
at the Naval Young Mems Christian
Association, Brooklyn. A double header
was played last night, with the battle
ship New York team virtually getting
into the final round by defeating the
Arkansas by a score of 10 to is. The
victors always followed the ball close
ly, gathering all their points by way
of twenty-five field goals.
In the second game, the Wyoming
defeated the Texas after nip and tuck
fight. by SO to 81 points. O'Neill, of
the Texas team, shot field goal into
his rivals cage, and this error of com
mission gave Wyoming its winning
advantage.

Coach Eustis Fitting Violet
for Big Game on
South Field

Captain Rube Bernstein, OF the New
York University football team, is still
limpng from an injury received in the
game against Union College last Sat-
urday. An X-ray photograph disclosed
the fact that one Of the small bones
in Bernstein's foot was fractured. and
Dick Eustis has abandoned hope Of
playing him in the game with Bueknell
on Election Day. The injury is heal
ing nicely, and perhaps he may be out
and ready for Colby on November IL.
He declares that he will play against
Columbia II he has 10 60 in on
crutches.
With Howard Cam rambling along
the side lines and Bernstein out. the
attack Of the Violet eleven is robbed
OF its greatest powers. Weinheimer IS
q shifty boy in an open field, and
Hammerschlag when he is so inclined,
is a high-grade player, but neither is
to be relied upon as are Cam and
Bernstein.
But even while mourning the loss
OF their star backs, the students at
University Heights refuse TO become
pessimists. They are anxious to win
over Bucknell but better defeat in 4
dozen such comparatively minor games
than a loss to Columbia. Right now
the slogan at New York University is:
"Wallop Columbia, WE CAN Do IT."
and the team practises and plays with
that one game in view.
1t is hoped that the Violet will be
able 10 send its full strength against

before November %.
A rousing scrimmagc that amounted

the field until II became necessary TO
turn on the lishts. Archie Brin held
down his regular post at centre Tor
a while, but he gave way to Mooney
after his leg began TO bother MN.
Carol Buch baum, House and Soko-
lower were the other regular line
men who swung into action, while
Hammerschlag and Horigan represent
Cd the first string men IN the back
field.
The second-string men tore into tho
fray with great spirit, and some power
too. for the score was - 10 in favor
OF the varsity when a halt was called.
Teddie Cam was prominent in the
scrimmage. He worked at left half
back on the varsity and reeled OF
8 couple Of long runs. IL will take
q lot Of great playing by some Of the
other fellows 10 keep the youngster
cf the team. Captain Bernstein said
yesterday: "Teddic will be as great
n player as his brother before long.
All he needs is one more season o.
college play to bring him up to the
standard. lie has the natural ability,
the courage. and the physique. which
is about all one needs in these days
Captain Bernstein has been trying
to coax Ed Williams. who won some
fame at Wake Forest as gridlron
star to come out for the New York
team. Williams is u lineman, and
good one. if all reports be true. He
is attending the medical college, and
insists that his studies take up so
much of his time that he cannot play
football.
Sokolower, tackle at New York IT,
is real football player. He covers
a vast tract of territory, is fast, strong
as q bull and heady player. Dick
Fustis is the authority that Sokolower
ranks right up with the best

BIG BILL EDWARDS
HISTORIAN OF
FOOTBALL GAME
Former Princeton Star Has
Written Book on Great
College Sport
BY GRANTLAND RICE

We have no idea what the All-Ameri-
can Eleven will be this season, but our
All-Amercan Football Historian is all
picked.
His name is Big Bill Edwards. The
cid Princeton star, who isn't so very
old at that, has just completed the ALI
American football book Of all time.
This book, known as Football Days"
.Mofat, Yard CO.. is 40 pages Of
rare delight for any one even remotely
interested in the great autumn sport.
The author has not only picked his
subjects amazingly well, but he has
also treated each subject in a most in
teresting manner-co covering every de-
tail and every section of the football
commonwealth.
Football Days" is in no way a book
of football technique. IL has nothing
TO do with the way TO block tackle or
70 spill an end
But it goes back to that remote pc
riod in our national life when Walter
Camp was sophomore and moves
along without missing a thrill up 10
the final run of Ned Mahan.
The book is full OF appealing stories
and personalities built around the foot
ball heroes of the last forty years.
None of the great ones are overlooked.
There is an entire chapter devoted to
Johnny Poe-from the day he came to
Princeton until, member of the Black
Watch, he came TO his death some
where in France"
Edwards has done his work we'll and,
in addition TO his own labors, he has
drawn upon the reminiscent memories
Of many old stars who were glad to
contribute their share to a football
book that might partake of the glory OF
the game.
From page to page Football Days"
reads like romance or story of ad-
venture. Beyond any doubt it is n
football classic that will live.
