Army Pians for Long Stay7

Dilatory tactics on the part of the
German authorities with. regard to
the conclusion of peace on the terms
laid down by the Allies have given
rise to the belief in certain diplomat
ic centers that the restoration of
peace and order in Central Europe
is hardly possible in near future.
Recent developments tend to con-
firm the unofficial reports from Eu-
rope that the Allied military leaders
are arranging their plans for pro-
longed military occupation of Ger
man territory, the time estimates
varying from three to five years,
That the United States Army is
included in these plans seems to be
implied by reports from various Eu-
ropean capitals and also by the fact
that all the American troops now be-
ing sent to Europe are enlisted tor
five years service. =" ."
Because of these movements and
the unsatisfactory outlook for the
early signing of the peace treaty
there is increasing belief in the un-
official report that President Wilson
has agreed that a detachment Of
American troops shall remain on the
Rhine for five years, il necessary, to
enforce Germany's compliauca-IwftF

Colgate Has Lively
Practice i'm Mud:
Stars Out i'm Togs

HAMILTON, N. Y, Oct 30-The Col
gate football squad ploughed up the
,ain-soaked turf on the practice field
to-day until it was changed to mud in
an hour Of hard scrmmage. Contrary o
ali expectations, The coaches changed
their minds about giving the squad tire
usual light workout for last practice
before a big game and ran the varsity
they have any day this week.
For the first time since the Princeton
game Anderson and Clio We're. in togs,
but the coaching staff would not allow
them to get into the scrimmage. They
took part in fast signal drill of the
varsity and appeared to be in a condi-
tion that will permit their starting in
the Dartmouth game.
The coaching staff had hoped to de-
vote the entire afternoon to offensive
drilling, but the heavy going made this
impossible. However, in the hour Of
scrimmage the varsity stood UP under
the attacks OF the second team for thirty
minutes and IN the other forty minutes
had possession of the ball The play
ing of the varsity on the offensive
seemed to satisfy the coaches more
than its showing on The defensive.
Just before the scrimmage was
brought to an end the entire student
cheered until the last man had left the
field and started on his way to the
showers. There is high enthusiasm
here to-dav over the teams prospects
Many Of the students will follow the
team on the long trail to Hanover, for
they realize that Dartmouth means %
Colgate the supreme test of the season.

Practice in Signal Drill
and Forward Passes:
May Scrimmage To-day

NEW HAVEN. Conn, Oct. 0.-Yale
hopes fer winding up the weeks prac-
tice preliminary to the Maryland State
game with a dAshing scrimmage ses-
sion were dashed by the rain, which
not only subjected the players to q
downpour this afternoon but made
the playing surface of the bowl cx-
tremely soft The squad was driven
upon the tan bark of the artillery
armory, where it was compelled to
limit its work.
Scrimmaging was abandoned, and all
that was attempted was signal re-
hearsal, interspersed with considerable
forward passing, in which the team is
specializing with dazzling results.
Even the tanbark was not without
dangers, for Howard Campbell half
back Of the second eleven, strained a
muscle in his leg and was replaced by
To.ten UcFelfngcr.
Allen and Reinhardt were used only
temporarily. Fred Graham and Eddie

Scheerer's Punting
Features Practice
OF Princeton Squad

PRINCETON, N. j., Oct. 30-Roper
gave the Tiger varsity heavy days
work to-day, but the usual scrmmage
was lacking from the afternoons pro-
cedure. The backfeld that was in the
varsity end of the field was composed
of Strubing, Murray, De Stefano and
Wittmer. There is some question as
to whether the first two of these will
do much duty against the West Vir-
ginia eleven, and Trimble. Garrity and
Lourie are almost sure to be absent
from the lineup Saturday. Garrity
and Lourie have completely recovered
from the minor injuries that kept
them out of the Colgate game and
were on the field all afternoon.
and the scrubs lined up for kicking
practice. Wittmer punted for the var
sity and Joe Scheerer did the kicking
for the scrubs. Scheerer's punting
was an agreeable surprise to the
coaches. He displayed the best spirals
seen at Princeton this fall and out
punted Wittmer on every exchange.
Scheerer's kicks during the half hour
that he punted averaged about sixty
yards and the varsity was fnally
driven back of it's own goal posts
There was no tackling, each side punt
ing on the first play
The varsity ends, Bigler and Will
iams, were fast in getting down the
field under Wi.tmer's kicks, and Har-
vey and Mcnamara on the scrub wings
had little trouble in getting close to
Strubbing, as he caught the twisters
from Scheerer's toe.
Trevor Hogg, captain and star of the
1916 team, arrived in town this morn

Stevens All 'Het Up
Over Game With
Rensselaer, Eleven

The Stevens football players endeav-
ored to hold regular practice yesterday
AFTERNOON on the gridiron but were
forced to move the seat of operations
to the gymnasium, because Of the
soggy field and lack of daylight. The
drizzling rain made the light uncer-
tain and washed the whtcwash off
the ball, which, coupled with the slip
perry mud, mixed things up rather
badly.
The first string men then donned
gymnasium uniforms and resumed the
Workouts on the basketball court. The
stiff scrimmage which the coaching
staff had planned for the aftern oon
had to be called off and dummy
scrimmage introduced in its place.
Signal practice was the main feature
of the indoor program. The rooters
who will accompany the team to Troy
tomorrow, where the Red and Gray
will face Rensselaer,, will be excused
from their classes. From present in
dications there will be d cheering
team of about fifty men.

Capt. Canapary
Still Missing
From line-U %
QuigIey Also an Absentee;
Players Show Proficiency
i'll Handling Slippery Ball

Coach Fred Dawson does not believe
in permitting the rain or darkness to
keep his Columbia football charges
from going through their daily work
out. Yesterday he had the men out,
although the field was a sea of mud
the players drilled On by searchlight.
Not wishing to chance injuries, Daw-
son called off the scrimmage work. The
practice consisted of long signal
drill in which all the plays were tried
out. The ball was wet and heavy. caus-
ing the men considerable difficulty in
handling it, but as the practice pro-
gressed their form improved. Quigley
and Canapary again were absent, but
all the othcr regulars we're on hand
Dawson and Tom Thorp now have
the men in top form. They have been
drilling them on signals continuously.
Because of the delay in catching the
signals in the Amherst game, much
time was lost, and the team slowed up
considerably. The coaches have since
been working the men so that they
would get the signals and perform their
particular task on every play mechani-
cally. Dawson believes this is the
secret Of team work
The squad now contains two distinct
backfields Of equal strength. while there
is little choice in the lines. 1t was an
nounced last night that tne backield
Of the so-called seconds will start
against Union tomorrow. This COM
bination contains Ecclcs at quarter
