Rutgers VARSITY;
Capt. Kelly Leaves

NEW BRUNSWICK, n. j.. Oct. 10
Rutgers had its first football practice
OF the week to day, ard there was a
general shahe-up in the team. num-
ber OF new men being placed on the
varsity by Coach Sisford.
Captain Kelly has been definitely
lost to the squad. He was unable to
catch up with his scholastic work,
and left to-day for New Haven TO enter
Yale. Kelly will probably be unable to
play for the New Haven team this
year.
The backield is greatly weakened by
the absence of French. who was in
Jurcd in tho Lehigh game and VIII be
out for two weeks. It is probable. how
ever. that he viii be back for the
Syracuse game, the next big contest. on
November 4, in New York.
Scott, new man, was given one of
the guard positions and made good
impression. Troup and Runyon alter
mated at centre, but it is probable
Duffy Will be the final selection for
tins place. Raub remained at guard
and Alexander at tackle.
The backfield was changed several
times during the afternoon. The TWO
Redmonds. Duffy, Kulp, Garrett, Sum
merrill and Francisco were all used as
backs. Baker. however. appears to
have no rival for quarterback.
There VIII be no game this week. and
reXt week the Rutgers team will take
on the New York Aggies, compara-
lively easy aggregation.

Herrick, of Army,
Breaks His Arm:
Kelly Gets Chance

WEST POINT, n. Y. Oct. l5,-The
Army had a hard work out to-day. Four
teams were driven through long
scrimmage on wet and slippery field
The slowness of the backs has caused
a Encouragement of the backfield Bow
man and Dodd were working in Lystad' S
and McQuarrie's berths, due to in
iurles and some unsatisfactory work.
Many other new faces were seen on
the big team.
During the scrmmage Herrick. the
giant guard, who had just recovered
from injuries, got his arm broken.
Kelly will probably be shifted from
end to fill this place until Breidster is
able to work again. Nogel, at the
other guard position, showed up we'll
and no doubt will be one of the strong
est men in the Army's forward wall.
He is big and aggressive and has been
a great source of worry to all visiting
teams here this year Daniel at tackle
also worked we'll.
1t is reported that the University Of
Maine has a very strong eleven, and
the coaches are driving the men so as
to avoid repetition of last Saturday s
defeat. The entire squad is we'll used

quite gloomy, but it is hoped many of

Cornell WORKING
Hard to Perfect
Defensive Game

ITHACA, N. Y, Oct. 15.-Hundreds
of Cornell students gathered in the
stands when the gates of Schoellkopf
Field were thrown open this afternoon,
and for an hour cheered the varsity
team as it fought the scrub squad n a
long scrimmage. 1t was the last open
practice before the Colgate game. For
an hour before the undergraduates
were admitted the team ran through
new plays.
Coach Rush subjected the varsity to
another long defensive scrimmage and
also put 1t through a long drill with
the forward pass, as we'll as a defense
against that method of attack. Paul
Miller, veteran guard, and William
Carry, one of the varsity backs who is
kept out Of the game by injuries, as
sisted Coaches Rush, Cool and Van
Orman.
Rush made another series of changes
in the lineup, keeping a number of
varsity men out Of the game. Wilson,
right end, was on the injured list and
Reavis and Cunneen worked in that
position. Hoag, a powerful new for
ward, got chance at left tackle, Tay-
lor laying off.

New-York tribune., 1919-10-16

In the previous games with Red
Gennerts 1928 eleven the youngsters
have been finding plenty of holes in
the first eleven's line. Much of the
new drive in the varsity line was due
to the presence of Keck. considered
in many years.
keck, who won the Yale freshman
game of 1917 practically single-hand
cd. returned from France this summer
He has as yet not been able to take
part In the scrimmaging or the games,
with the exception of the last moment
OF the Lafayette contest, when he and
room on the verge of scoring a touch
down.
Their combined efforts served to
hold off defeat from the Tigers. To-
day was Keck's first appearance in
the scrimmage lineup, and he started
in his old berth at tackle.
After a lively signal drill Roper gave
the freshmen the ball on the varsity
2o-yard line, as was the case yester-
their way toward the goal for a total
of thirty-two consecutive plays, and
in that time only succeeded in making
q single first down. At last they made
an unexpected change in their tactics
and German, the 1923 quarterback,
slipped around right end for a score.
This former Mercersburg player shook
off four varsity tacklers before he ar
rived at his destination.
The teams then lined up in kickoff
formation and the varsity, receiving,
had less difficulty in going down the
field. After gaining two first downs
on line plays, Mcnamara caught a
long pass from Trimble and put the
leather ten yards from the 1923 posts.
Trimbe went around left end Tor a
touchdown on the next play.
The early part of the afternoon
found the ends covering punts. A set
of ends We're sent down the field on
each punt and the runner had two
men to make interference for him.
Lourie and Wittmer were doing the
booting as usual and the former eGpe-
cially was getting good distance with
the leather.
The varsity lined up as follows:
Harvey and Williams. ends; Keck
and Captain McGraw, tackles; Dickiu-
son and Rothchild, guards, and Thomas
at centre. Strubing played quarter,
with Louric. Knox and Baker in the
backfield. This trio soon made way
for Trimble. Wittmer and Murrev.
AS a whole the play of the varsity
was the best yet shown in the scrm-
images. The team appeared TO have
more unison and the drive of thc line
was greatly improved. The backiield,
however. GiL not have the smash and
power that Roper is seeking.
