YALE ELEVEN GETS
OPEN PLAY DRILL
Blue Fears Boston Game May
Hinge on Field Goal, and
Trains Braden to Kick.

NEW HAVEN, Conn, Oct IA. - DIR.
Sharpe spent to-day working up Yale's
open field play. Drop kicking and for
ward passing made up the whole after
moons workout, which was considered
very successful in view of the adverse
weather conditions, rain falling through
out the practice.
DR.. Sharpe looks for a very keen
game with Boston College next Satur-
day, for to-day he told the squad that
IL would not be at all improbable for
the result Of the contest to hinge upon q
field goal. He therefore called for drop
kicking to develop Braden's ability. to
instruct the varsity in protecting O
kicker and to block opponents attempts.
Accordingly, Braden went on the sec
ond team and tried three from the rs
yard line, registering one while the
other two were blocked by Walker and
Reinhardt Later In the practice, when
Braden went on the varsity to test its
ability to protect him. he succeeded in
getting two goals out of eight attempts
Three were blocked and three were low
When the varsity went on the offence
Kempton tried a 20 yard forward pass
after three downs had failed to get ter
yards, but 1t was not completed. Later
the varsity took the ball on the 20 yard
line. Kempton went eight yards around
right end on the second play and French
followed with a first down through
centre. The scrubs defence, which was
noticeably strong during the practice
stiffened at this point and line plunges
availing nothing the varsity had to try
forward passes again and lost the ball
The varsity was kept on the defence
throughout the rest of the scrimmage
Later the first college team was lined
! up against the varsity and took the ball
tered first down forward passing was
tried. but the first attempt was inter-
copied by French. This scrimmage was
featured by Kempton. who on a subse-
quent scrub attempt to pass ran sixty
yards for a touchdown after intercepting
the ball.
The varsity defence came to the front
when the scrubs were given one down to
carry the ball over the line from the ]
yard mark, but instead of registering
were thrown for a loss.
Hubbard was tried out at right guard
| to-day and Chick Neville. freshman
quarterback of two seasons ago. took
La Roches place at quarter. The other

The varsity played with the following
makeup: Reinhardt. left end Dickens

Shiverick's task probably was a little
more difficult, since his goal was kicked
from the 80 yard line, although the turf
pt Schelkopf Field last Saturday was
better than that at Princeton in 1913.
That the ground was muddy and the
goal hard to get is borne out by the fact
that 80 certain booter as Shiverick
was forced to try five times before he
got the bah over the bar.

LEONARD TO FIGHT
DUNDEE FOR TITLE
Lightweight Champion VIII
Stake Laurels i'm Is Rounds
to a Decision.
BY CHARLES II. MATHIsoN.

Johnny Dundee. one OF the leading
contenders for the title held by Benny
Leonard, is about to realize his ambition
to meet the champion in a title bout to
decision. The date announced yester-
day for the contest is October 81, the
length of the bout fifteen rounds and
the scene will be the state Armory at
Hartford. Conn. which is larger than
Madison Square Garden.
}rhis will be the first time Leonard
will meet an opponent in a long bout to
a decision since he captured the honors
from Freddie Welsh In a ten round de-
cisionless bout In this city. Leonard and
Dundee have met seven times In de-
cisionless bouts and the question of SUI
periority has never been settled. Dun
dee had shade over the champion in
their last encounter in Jersey, and has
felt that If he could get a long bout
with Leonard, in which the referee was
authorized to give a decision on points
he would acquire the title.
Dundee has been travelling at a fast
gait in his recent contests and there il
small doubt that the impending contest
will draw the biggest crowd that yet has
seen a lightweight bout in this part OF
the country.

Toledo Also Seeks Bout.

the lightweight title. A. Q. Thatcher,
president of the Toledo Athletic Club,
who took a prominent part in the Will
lard-Dempsey match, seeks to interest
Lew Tender In a proposition to meet
Leonard in the Swamp City in a fifteen
round bout to a decision in November
or December.
Leonard already has offered to meet
Tender in fifteen round contest to a
referees decision, but the Quaker, al
though issuing fiery challenges to the
champion, pulled in his horns as soon as
Leonard announced his willingness to
battle to a decision for the title.
Toledo also has a building that will
hold more people than Madison Square
Garden. This is the Terminal Building,
and Thatcher believes that a bout be-
tween Leonard and Tender would draw
500, 900.
The difficulty that Thatcher will en-
counter WHY be the unwillingness of
Tender to take a chance with Leonard
In long bout.
The victory OF Dundee, 100 pound
man, over Young Kloby. the welter-
weight champion of New England. gives
an insight into the qualifications of the
title holders OF that section of the coun-
try. Kloby recently knocked out Eddie
Shevlin, who was the preceding holder
of the weller title, and the visitor al
once was heralded as one of the greatest
boxers since Paddy Duffy held the cham
pionship of that class

RACE SITUATION is
ACUTE AT CAPITAL

Washington, July 23.-(Special. wash
ngton policemen cannot cope with law
lessness in the District of Columbia ac-
cordng to admission of the policemen
themselves.
A small percentage of the people, aware
of the situation, have attempted to take
ur.on themselves the enforcement of law
and order. There have been mob scenes
and mob outrages. In many sections of
the city negroes have been dragged from
street cars and beaten.
The negro question is the live question
For the past several weeks there have
been repeated outrages and attempted
outrages on white women Several sus-
poets have been arrested, but guilt seems
to point to only one of the prisoners.
Washington authorities are considering
remedy. In this. city all the arrogant
members of the negro race have gath
cred, one would judge. They are most in
sistent on their rights and are al
ways complaining in the press of what
they consider determinations against
them Frequently they write long invec-
tiveS against the south wherein offending
members of their race are sometimes dealt
with by those not constituting lega
bodies. Legally, negro in Washing
ton has all the privileges of the white
man. No discrimination is permitted on
street cars or railroads or elevators.
Their leaders have been seen conspicu-
ously mingling with other guests in hotel
lobbies
With what result the authorities will
consider, one cannot judge. Congress,
with republican majorities, will not act.
Irdvidual members may introduce Jim
Crow laws, but those efforts will to
certainty amount to nothing In other
days, members introduced Jim Crow laws.

ers and threatened through the mail

the part of the pope of prominence in
