SHORT sCRIMMAGE AT BROWN.
Psychological Tests Keep CaRdi-
dates From Gridiron.

PROVIDENCE, r. l., Sept 24.-Despite
the fact that all freshmen players were
kept from practice to-day because OF
the three and half hour psychological
tests given at the University, 45 min
ute scrimmage was given the players by
the Brown coaches. Two representative
teams were picked. neither of which
could score. Shupert and Moody did
some sensational hole picking. They
show up so well that both are possibili--
ties in the game Saturday with Rhode
Island State College.
Eddie Murphy. Banty Coulter and
Sammy Samson piloted one eleven, while
Pleri and Crowther handled the other
team. Crowther is a brother Of the
famous Brown. all American quarter

WILLIAMS HARD HIT.
Mclean, Star Halfback, IneIi-
Eible to Play.

WILLIAMsrowN. Sept. 24.-The Will
Jams football eleven, has received
two jolts the past few days with the
announcement that Mclean, freshman
halfback of two years ago. was ineligible
and the failure OF Franzheim. captain
of the freshman team of three years
ago. to return to college. Both men were
counted on for regular places behind
the line this fall on the varsity.
Mclean is out for the season while
hopes are almost given up that Franz
helm will appear. The latter was ex-
-pected back after two years in the
service to finish his course. He is the
old Lawrenceville quarterback and cap
tain. II was considered likely that in
the event OF his return he would take
quarter on the varsity with Boynton

STANDARDIZATION OF
GOLF BALLS URGED
British Committee Submits a
NeU Rule.

LONDON. Sept. "a (via Montreal) -
The British Golf Rules Committee, at its
first meeting since 1914, resolved to suo-
init to the association a new rule STAN
dardizing golf balls. Decisions were
made against plans to abolish the sty-
mie and change the size of the hole.
Officers of the United States Golf Asso-
citation yesterday expressed the unofficial
opinion that any changes in rules made
BY the English authorities would be fol-
lowed by similar changes in this coun-
try. With the exception OF rule per-
mittlng the use of the Schenectady put
ter, which is barred abroad, the codes
are identical.
Standardization of the golf ball. it is
believed. would pave the way for y
flrmer foundation for international play.
AS plans are being made in both Eng
land and the United States for such
matches and entries during the 1920
championships, 1t is thought that next
season may witness all ttular play with
a standard golf ball.
