Dartmouth Faces
Colgate Struggle gg
InOpti'nistic Mood

HANOVER, n. H, Oct. 30.-Satsfac-
ton marked the faces of the Dartm outh
coaches after this afternoons practice,
as a result of the hard work and good
showing of their team. After putting
in an hour at fast signal drill, about
thirty minutes was devoted to scrlm-
mage against the second team, which
was using the Colgate formations. The
varsity played on the defensive during
the entire time, and while the scrubs
gained some ground, they were unable
to score.
Robertson and Eckberg spent half
hour punting and drop kicking, in
which they developed remarkable &C
curacy The ends were given the most
attention, as the covering of Anderson
will be large factor of the Green
defense.
Threshie and Streng are the choice
for the line extremities at the present
time. but they may be displaced before
Saturday. Shutting will not be able to
get in against the Maroon eleven, which
leaves Spears without capable substi-
tute fulback. Crisp is due to start at
left guard, as Moore has failed to come
around

Changes in Brown
Team Still i'm Vogue

PROVIDENCE, Oct. 9o.-~A long sig
nal drill featured the Brown football
practice this afternoon. 1t was held
behind closed gates. Most of the
changes instituted yesterday by the
coaches were again in evidence in the
varsity lineup.
The only other cnange was the ap-
pearance of Jemail at right halfback.
He was later supplanted by Adams and
Shubert. Oden remained at left half
back and will start there on Saturday.
Fox being slated to start at quarter
back. Moody, Murphy and Brooks are
also being tried out for left halfback
but there is little likelihood of their
dsplacing the elusive Oden unless the
latter is injured. Emery was again al
fullback this afternoon. He also did
the punting.

slump Of the team last week, when
they lost to Columbia The game with

Demarest will be taken out of the

game on the 1917 aggregation. Card

Unless Folwell takes the opportunity
of rehearsing the new PLAYS tomorrow
afternoon, when the Penn squad will
be spirited away to Chestnut Hill to
watch Chestnut Hill Academy play
Frankford High School, the indications
are that Penn will depend on the same
ofrense that has enabled the eleven to
roll up 237 points in the five games
this season.
Folwell will start the same team
against Penn State that he used against
Lafayette last Saturday. with the possi-
BILE exception of Ray Miller at left end.
In to-day's scrimmage the younger
in his place at regular end was
Bud Hopper, the All-American choice.
Whether Hopper or young Miller will
be used on Saturday is question.
AS the varsity lined up to-day ex'
Captain Heinc Miller and Hopper were
at ends, Little and Maynard at tackles.
Wray at centre, Captain Bell at quar-
terback and Drummer, Derr and Light
in the backfield.
Second Team Is Strong
Like Bczdek's State College squad, the
second Penn team, as it lined up to-
day, looked almost as formidable as
the varsity On this eleven we're Graves
and Ray Miller, ends Wilmington and
Rosetsky. tackles; Neylon and Frank,
guards; Alex Wray, center; Rex Wray,
at quarter, and McNichol, Pearce and
Strauss in the backtield. The probabil-
ity is that most of these players will
be called upon on Saturday at some
time or another.
The State College squad left Belle
fonte tonight and will arrive here Sat
urday morning.
After breakfast at the Hotel Walton
the Blue and the White team will be
taken to the Philadelphia Cricket Club
at Whitemarsh and will remain there
until game time. About 1900 State
College students will come here on a
special train.

possibilities. And I am sure they'll
show plenty Of stuff against Colgate"
Speaking Of teams which possessed
plenty of mid field power. Harvard was
somewhat that kind Of team in 1913.
Against Yale that year the Crimson
did plenty of rushing and on at east
five different occasions carried the bali
near enough to Yale's goal line TO
allow Charlie Brickley TO boot field
goal. Perhaps because OF Bricklcy's
toe there was no necessity Of rushing
the ball further, hut the fact remains
that although Harvard easily outrushcd
Yale it failed to put over touch
down.
Tom Ready, coach Of the Iehigh
eevens, had team in 1915 which
possessed plenty of drive until it
ncared the goal line. Then for lack Of
sufficient physical or mental drive it
faltercd and was held for downs by a
rather weak team This occurred quite
oarly in the season. During that game
Ready was stamping up and down the
sidelines in anything but an amiablc
frame of mind.
Monday came and the athletes iogged
INTO the field expecting the usual soft
Monday matincc. "Varsity, take the
ball on the l5-yard line shouted
kcady. "You'vc got four downs to

"lf you fail you start over again.

New-York tribune., 1919-10-31

Some faithful follower Of Penn in a
recent article said the Quakertown
students were breezing along so mer
rily that they we're going after the
sccring record. A laudab!e ambition
probably, but it is doubtful if Coach
Folwell and his assistants arc keen for
such honors.
In the first place, the scoring record
means nothing, and secondly, coach
who plays his regular team or teams
throughout an easy contest is not the
wiscst tutor going. Generally when a
team encounters an easy opponent or
is far ahead the coach yanhs out the
regulars and sends in substitutes BY
the score, thus gaining manifold ben
ctits. The varsity is saved possible in
jury, the new men can be sized up, and
victory is just as sweet whether the
margin be one or 100 points.
Asked IL he were satisfied With the
teams showing against Cornell sat
urday, a Dartmouth alumnus confessed
tnat he was far from that. SAID the
/ qucstioner: al looked to see Dartmouth
