BARRETT RETURNS TO
ITHACA TO AID TEAM
Former All America viii
Help Cornell Coaches.
Special Despatch TO The SUN.

ITHACA, N. Y, Nov. 3.--Comng to
Cornclrs aid in her hour of need Charles
Barrett. captain and brilliant quarter
back of the 1914 and the 1915 teams,
and one of the greatest figures in re-
cent football history, arrived in town to-
day. He will spend two weeks here in
assisting Speedy Rush and his associate
coaches in determined attempt to avert
the disaster that impends in the Penn
State and the Pennsylvania games un-
less the team makes a remarkable i'm
provement within the next ten days.
Barrett. who was all-America quar-
terback in 1915, and who played football
at Cleveland University School when
Rush was physical director of that In
stitution, is expected to be of great SER
vice in the development of the backfield
offense. His appearance, it is hoped. will
be the signal for the return of other for
mer stars, particularly Jimmie Munns,
the leader of the 1913 team. The pep
and fighting spirit of Munns during tho
week before the recent Dartmouth game
did much to hearten the Cornell eleven
into putting up against the Green the
stubborn defense which featured Cor
nelps play at the Polo Grounds.

N. Y. U. Is FAVORITE
OVER TRINITY TEAM
Despite Absence of Four Stars
Violet Is Expected to Reg
lister a Victory.

With an entirely reorganized and a
greatly rejuvenated eleven, New York
University will enter its annual contest
with Trinity College this afternoon on
Ohie- Field a slight favorite. Although
handicapped by the absence of four of
its stars through injuries, the Violet
team is expected to continue its recent
reversal of form and register its second
victory at the expense Of the Connecticut
collegians.
The local team held it's final practice
session yesterday afternoon in prepara-
ton for to-day's contest. The workout
was a light one and consisted entirely of
signal drill and a rehearsal OF several
new trick formations. The new combina-
ton worked smoothly and the line In
particular charged as a. unit.
The contesting elevens in this after
moons gridiron battle at University
Heights are ancient rivals and the fur
should fly when they meet. With but
three exceptions, the two colleges have
met annually for the past twenty-four
years and the Connecticut collegians
| have a margin of three games in vic
| tories scored. The last meeting took
place two years ago and resulted in a
scoreless tie
BY the old but unreliable method OF
comparative scores the Violet should
score an easy victory in to-day's con-
test Both elevens have played Am
horst this season and both have been
defeated by the Purple and White. The
New Workers. lost by the narrow margin
of safety, while the Hartford team
was showed under a As to score. Com
parative scores are usually worthless,
but the margin here is so great that IL
should not be overlooked in picking tho
probable winner.
On accosnt of the termination of the
daylight saving plan a week ago the
scheduled time for the starting of games
on the Bronx gridiron has been put for
ward whole hour. This afternoons
contest will commence at o'clock sharp.

In spite of a wet and slippery Held
Fred Dawson drove the Columbia var
sty football squad through a long drill
In the fundamentals of the game yAs-
terday. He had no fault to find with
the playing of any individual members
of the eleven in the game with Union
on Saturday. but was OF the opinion
that the team as n whole had gone on
the field indifferent as to success or
overconfident in its ability to overcome
the Schenectady eleven.
In a measure the mental attitude of
the players in Saturdays contest was
due TO the absence of Eddie Quigley
the regular quarterback. who was laid
UP with water on the knee. It was the
first time that Eccles had played at
quarter and he was nervous during
great part OF the game. Furthermore,
he offended on the score of being over
careful in receiving punts and therefore
was never able to run them back for
any considerable distance, one of the
strongest features of Quigley's game.
None of the Columbia players was
even badly bruised in the game, aud
Dawson will drive the men hard all this
week. There will be a let up this after
noon, inasmuch as the squad has been

Dawson thinks 1t will be of assistance

their opponents In action.
Stevens Institute will meet Columbia
this week and Dawson is convinced that
1t will be necessary for him TO have his
strongest combination on the field to
face the light but powerful eleven from
Ioboken. Quigley may be able to play.
and there is an even chance that Moder-
ELI, whose shoulder was badly bruised
early in the season. will replace Hinsch

RAIN FAILS TO HALT
HARVARD VARSITY
Crimson Coaches Plan Stiff
Drill Before Tiger Game
Shifts in Lineup.
Special Despatch to THE sun.

CAMBRIDGE, Nov. 8. - Monday. and q
rainy day as well, did not prevent the
Harvard football coaches from putting
the varsity players through their PAGES
to-day. The regulars and then the sub
stitutes worked up a lot of spirit against
the scrubs. who are doing their bit to-
ward getting the team ready for Its
Princeton game.
IT a scrimmage, in which there was no
scoring, there was regular football, ex-
cept smashing tackling, and the day was
by no means the usual light Monday az
fair. Grenvile Waterbury. who some
years ago was coach of the freshman
team and who has been one of Har-
wards scouts at Princeton, aided in
the drill. -
Harvard's lineup to-day doubtless will
stand through Saturday. The one
change of interest was the entry OF
Havemeyer at centre in place Of A Hor-
ween. The coaches feel after seeing
Horween In the Springfield game, that
II is not wise to bank on him against
the Tigers this week. He will be held at

PRINCETON WORKS
IN STRICT SECRECY
Little Will Be Divulged Con-
corning Tiger Eleven
This Week.
Special Despatch TO THE SUN.

PRINCETON, n. j., Nov. "A veil of
secrecy which excluded students and
reporters for the press alike enshrouded
this afternoons practice in Palmer Me-
mortal Stadium. Strictly enforced orders
permitted only those in football uniform
to enter. Should Bill Roper continue
this policy TIN oughout the week the Tiger
eleven will be no better known by
Princeton supporters than by Harvard
followers. and some startling surprises
may be produced before the 40, 900 spec
tators who are expected to witness the
game.
Although the West Virginia eleven OBJ
viously outplayed Princeton in every de-
partment of the game TO tears are being
wasted on this past contest. 1t is felt
that the Mountain eleven is one of the
most powerful in the East and that de-
feat by 1t is hardly a disgrace.
The Orange and Black team came
through the contest with the big Vir-
ginians In surprisingly good shape. Not
single player was hurt beyond minor
scratches and bruises, and unless some
one is injured during the week in prac-
tice an unbattered eleven will be ready

with all men reporting on the field to-
day. Durborow started in with indi-
vidual drill to remedy some of the weak
points OF the men. Bloss then ran his
quartet OF backs through a signal drill.
The first and the second teams lined for
a scrimmage OF about half an hour. Tho
scrubs found difficulty in managing the
first team men and allowed tho varsity
TO break away several times.
There is a great deal OF speculation
going on I'm the home camp as to the
result OF the next game. In practically
all cases a quite optimistic view is taken,
and it is felt that Columbia will have
to put up very good argument to hold
the Engineers down.

TWO BIG FOOTBALL
| TILTS HERE TO-DAY
Rutgers Meets Syracuse, While
N. Y. U. Battles Trinity
Eleven.

The stage is all set at the Polo
Grounds for the Rutgers-Syracuse foot
ball game this afternoon, and. although
Syracuse Is expected TO win, q thrilling
battle is certain. Sanford's eleven, which
has been having an in and out season. is
Just the sort of combination TO bite back
when least expected to do so, and the
Orange may have more hardware adorn-
ing its anatomy before the sun sets to-
night.
On the face of things the Salt City
warriors should win handily, but since
the w. and j. disaster the Orangemen
have quit counting their chickens before
they hatch. They know that Sanford
has been handicapped by many obstacles
this season. but they know also that
the canny Yale guard is one of the most
resourceful men In football and that his
teams. even in their darkest moments,
sparkle with his craftiness.
The Orange will go into the game set
to do its level best. The fact that SYRIA
cuse has been keeping engagements with
such teams as Pittsburg, w. and ]. and
Brown lately may cause the play of the
Orange to suffer from psychological re-
action. The Syracuse schedule has been
one that would tax the stamina of any
team. and the Raritan boys may come
into their own IL the Orange should be
Off it's game.
Because of injuries and scholastic diff
ficulties Rutgers will be without the SER
vices of no fewer than five of its best
men-Durham, frankie, French, Gard
ner, Kelly and Silker. Sanford has
worked hard to replace these men, and
this afternoons game. the first really
big one of the Rutgers card, will tell
whether he has been successful or not.
Regardless of the outcome Of the
game the spectators are certain to see
an exciting fight right down to the wire.
Both Syracuse and Rutgers are noted
for the spectacular quality Of their play,
and they will be trying everything in
their stock this afternoon.
