team representing the Bronx institu-
tlon is one that will seriously have to
be counted on in the various competi-

Branch Brook course, and hanging up
a new record of 16:011, the Maroon
team showed that it had the making
Of championship aggregation.
Also, last Saturday, without train
ing for the six-mile course at all, the
Maroon barriers succeeded in obtain
ing second place in the United State
Service Team 'cross-country champion

team, hung right in back of the two
national champions, Charles Pores, Of

With Boston Eleven

With the Boston College game
scheduled for next Saturday, Coach
Siskind began preparing the Ford
ham football squad yesterday after
noon for what seems'io be the tough
est game on the Maroon schedule.
Every man, with the exception Of
Leidinger, came out of the game with
N. Y. U. unscratched. Leidinger re-
ceived bump on the knee which will
probably keep him out of the game
for a week. Yesterdays practice con-
sisted of signal drill, when several
new formations were tried out. Much
attention was given to the forward
pass, for it will be on this play that
the light Maroon team will depend
for its ground gaining.
Captain Frisch's sensational broken
field running and all around play and
the work of Mahony and Harden at
the tackle positions were the outstand-
ing features of Saturdays game with
N. Y. U. Mahony, who only reported
to the team on Thursday, showed that
he possessed qualities that go to make
a real star lineman. Several times
Saturday it was Mahony who broke
through the n. Y. U. line, tackling the
runner for loss
