FORDHAM SQUAD
HASLONG DRILL
IN SIGNAL WORK

The Fordham squad had a brisk sig
nal practice yesterday preparatory to
to-day's game with Western Maryland.
Only one eleven went through the
plays, but Coach Gargan changed the
lineup frequently 70 give every man on
the squad a trial.
The forward pass was the chief play
in the repertory, and Fordham's at
tack in to-day's game bids fair to be
spectacular. Dempsey practised place
ment kicking and drop kicking at the
close Of the signal drill.
To-day's game is not expected 10
prove hard tussie, although the
strength Of the visitors is unknown, as
they have not played this season. On
the other hand, the Fordham lineup,
despite the fact that Mcnamara and
Dempsey are a bit lame, will be strong
er than faced Lafayette last Saturday.
CorcOran will start at right end to-
day in place of Conklin, while Lowe
will play right tackle. Both men have
shown a decided improvement in prac-
tice. The rest Of the lineup will be
the same as faced Lafayette:
Left end, Braney; left tackle, Cadell;
left guard, May; centre, Treanor; right
guard, Kendrick; right tackle, Lowe;
right end, Corcorani quarterback. Nc
Namara; left halfback, Golden; right
halfback, Cantwell; ful!back. Dempsey.

Practice Consists of Run
Around Field and Work
with Dummy.

The workout for the New York Uni
versty football squad yesterday on
Ohio Field was in sharp contrast 70 the
practice held Thursday Coach Edwin
Eustis took his charges for quick run
around the field and then let each man
take a fling at the dummy.
Instead Of the daily scrImmage Coach
Eustis spent the latter part Of the
afternoon instructng the candidates
for the several positions IN the proper
tactics 20 be followed this afternoon.
The drill yesterday marked the final
practice before the game with Rensse-
laer Polytechnic institute on ONO
Field this afternoon.
The Trojans visit the metropolis each
wear. with the idea Of conqUering the
Violet. but invariably have failed.
After his talk at the training table
Coach Eustis gave out a tentative line
Up. which follows:
Egan, right end; Jordan, right
tackle; Savage right guard; House,
centre: Alvarez, left guard; Hoffman,
left tackle; McCulioch, left end; Ven
heimer. right halfback; Cam, left half
back; Warman. fullback, and Macken-
zie. quarterback.

Southern Champion Meets
Miss Caverly day in
Match on Links.

Boston. Oct. 6.-The favorites kept
true TO form in the semi-fnal round
Of the women's national golf champion
ship at the Belmont Spring Country
Club to-day, and as a result Miss Mil
bred Caverly, the Philadelphia cham
pion. and Miss Alexa W. Stirling, Of
Atlanta. who holds the Southern title,
will meet tomorrow in the eighteen
hole final. Miss Caverly won a run
away fatch to-day from Mrs. Thomas
Hucknall, Of Forest Hill, by : up and s
20 play. and in one Of the most thrill
ing struggles ever seen IN women
championship Miss Stirling defeated
Mrs. c. c. Auchincloss, Of Piping Rock,
BY only , up.
A gamer golfer than Mrs. Auchin-
Gloss proved herself to-day has never
been seen on any course. On the out
ward journey she was playing against
a brand OF unbeatable golf. for Miss
Stirling, coming on her game at last,
went out in SO and was up at the
turn. In the mean time Mrs. Auchin-
Gloss played her own game. making
few mistakes and losing only because
Of the brilliancy OF her young oppo-
rent. Many a more experienced golfer
would have become discouraged, but
Mrs. Auchincloss didn't seem to know
the meaning OF the word.
Turning for home with her big lead
OF four holes. Miss Stirling seemed TO
have the match safely won, and prob
ably unconsciously eased up a little.
She halved the tenth, but had to play a
great chip shot TO DO it, but lost the
eleventh by driving out Of bounds. The
twelfth also was halved, but on the
thirteenth another hooked tee shot got
Miss Stirling into trouble, and when
she missed q four-foot putt and Mrs.
Auchincloss holed a slightly shorter
one the Southern champion found half
of her big lead had been swept away.
Bad on the Shots.
Seemingly unable to control her tee
shots Miss Stirling hooked into a trap
en- the fourteenth, the misplay costing
her the hole and leaving her only / up.
The fifteenth was halved in 5, Miss
Stirling missing a fve-foot putt for
win, and both played the sixteenth per-
fectly. halving IL in 3.
By that time every one in the big
gallery was on tiptoe, and there was
portentous hush as they began the
seventeenth. Both made good drives,
but neither dared 20 risk getting into
the brook on her second; both played
short purposely. A fine mashie shot
left Miss Strings ball fifteen feet
from the cup, but, not to be outdone,

Annapolis, Oct. s. With a team

stride, but which has rather been dis

while Jackson and Johnson will cover

In the backfeld. with the exception
OF Orr, a last year "plebe" and sub

SENATORS ONCE
GAVE SLIM LOVE
TRIAL IN BOX

"Slim" Love is what they called him
on the Pacific Coast, but his name back
home in the Southland. where he was
raised and started TO play baseball. was
Horton Edward Love, quite some name
for chap who is built ike a sca7tling,
mostly up and down.
He was first Of ali hurler in the
Southern Association, where he was
hooked UP with the Atlanta club. In
1918 Love was raised 70 the dignity OF
major league baseball, being taken over
by the Washington Americans. He
didn't show much with the Senator'S,
however, and II came 20 pass IN the
spring Of 1914 that Love and Long
Tom Hughes we're checked out 70 Los
Angeles. in accordance with a work
ing agreement then in existence be-
tween Berry's Angel club and the
Washington aggregation.
The Western country seemed 20
agree with Love and he had a couple
OF good seasons.
His work in 1914 was chiefly i'm
pressive because OF the scarcity OF
earned runs charged against him. Last
season he showed still more improve
ment. when he won twenty-three and
lost ffteen games, still holding the OPP
posing batsmen down when it came 20
gathering the tallies 70 which they had
a legitimate right.
Il was this performance that won
him A chance with the New York Amer
icans. for the Yanks drafted the Coast
err and took him over IN the spring Of
the present year.
Love is youngster He cant be
more than twenty-five or twenty-three
wears old. which means that life is in
front-not back-of him.
