Fordham Finishes
Work for Cornell

The Fordham football men finished
their preparations for the Cornell game
with a light drill yesterday. Coach
McCaffery gave the players a black
board talk embodying final instructions
for combating the Ithacans. The squad
then ran down punts and rehearsed the
plays that will be counted or to bring
victory IN to-morrow's clash.
There was a noticeable lack of ginger
in yesterdays drill that was not very
encouraging or the eve Of big game.
The players may perk UP a bit. how
ever when they get out on the Ithaca
gridiron.
The Fordham backfeld will again be
crippled tomorrow by the absence of
Frisch, the star back Crovat, the
quarterback, is also not likely to play.
About nineteen players will be taken
to Ithaca this morning. II Crovat does
not play the backfeld will be com
posed of Erwig. Brennan. Colletti and
Galligan. The line is expected to hold
its own. Abbott, as was expected on
account OF his improved work, will
start at left guard.
