New Workers Putting ON Full Steam
in Practice for Georgetown Tuesday.
New York, Nov. 1.-Fordham's var
sity and scrub elevens engaged in a
long scrimmage yesterday afternoon.
Coach McCaftery used the scrimmage
as a test and drill for the line. AS q
result the regulars bucked with and
against a shaken up line for forty
minutes. The first team. after a
hard struggle, went across for a score
The ball was then taken out to the
1O-yard line and Ewing, Frisoh, Col

ing 1t over the line. s.s
With several of the scrubs playing
for the varsity and likely to stay
there If the Maroon line does not take
a brace a spirited tussle was held that
furnished a good workout for the
Georgetown game. Brennan's bruised
leg again kept him out of the lineup
yesterday.
There was little improvement in the
line. The backs were more frequent
.ly presented with spilled front than
an opening. Frisch, however, did
some clever plunging. XII g

ANOTHER JOLT FOR GREEN.
Capt. McDonough and C. I. Holbrooh
Injured at Dartmouth. .r.

Hanover, N. H., Nov. Another
hard blow was dealt to the Dartmouth
team yesterday afternoon when Capt.
McDonou9h and G. F. Holbrook were
injured in a hard scrimmage. It is
barely possible that these men will be
able to start the game against Penn
State on Saturday, and as they are
the two most dependable men in the
back field, the Green's chances of win
ming are very slim.
The scrimmage was particularly
hard and long yesterday afternoon,
with the back field playing very poor
ly. The line, however, played well.
Ross, at right end, played a great
game. Presson will be used in c. F.
Holbrook's place and s. w. Holbrook
will be shifted from halfback to Capt.
McDonough's position, with Eastman
filling the older Holbrook's place at
half.

football stock took a decided drop
yesterday afternoon when Bill Van

work yesterday for the first time since
October 6, was hurt and carried from
