Regular Came at Fordhum.

Coach Joe Dumoc gave the Fordham
University football team real work
out at Fordham Field yesterday after
noon. After about a half an hour 8
signal practice the Maroon mentor or
dered regular game between the var
sity and the second team. The contest
consisted of four ten minute periods
and furnished about the most strenuous
practice that the Fordham aggregation
has had this season.
The varsity scored first when Kearns
received forward pass from Noonan
and carried the ball across the goal line
in the third quarter. Halloran followed
few minutes later with n long run
around right end for another touch
down. The scrubs got their only tally
in the final quarter. when Gately kicked
a goal from the 25-yard line.

WILLIAMS PREPARES
FOR THE CRIMSON
Brooks's Charges Are Deter
mined to Put Up Strong
Battle on Saturday.

Wu.LEAMsTowN, Oct lS'-Coach Joe
Brooks is putting his charges on the
williams football team through their
hardest work of the season in prepara-
ton for the game with Harvard at Cam
bridge Saturday. Two sessions were held
on Weston Field to-day. the double
workout being permitted by the fact that
1t was Mountain Day and holiday at
college.
Several shifts have been made on the
varsity line Humes and Fulle, who
have had the call on the guard positions
since the season opened, both we're regu-
lated to the second team to-day and
their places filed by Shuttleworth and
Jones. Lasell also was replaced at tackle,
his position going to Phillips. The
changes were brought about by the fall
ure Of the Purple line to hold the Union
backs last Saturday. who made con-
sistent gains.
Defensive drills have been in order
thus far this week. A strong scrub,
augmented by the varsity backfield
has pounded the varsity for an hour at
time. On the whole, the Purple for

possible 20 start Laws at one OF the
guard positions against Harvard. This
player is considered one OF the best
linesmen on the squad. but he has been

While Williams's prospects for holding
Harvard are not considered quite as
bright as was the case n week ago. be-
cause of the faults which cropped out
against Union Coach Brooks's charges
are determined to put up n strong battle
at Cambridge. The team possesses a
strong attack. but il is Capt. Boynton's

COLUMBIA VARSITY
BEATS SCRUBS, u TO 2
tombstone Stars With Several
Long Runs.

Columbia's varsity football candidates
went through complete game yester-
day afternoon, Instead of the customary
scrimmage and succeeded In defeating
the second varsity by 81 to T. john
stone was the bright star, showing up
best at the end runs and breaking away
for runs often netting as much as fifty
yards. In spite OF the fact that the
first team was minus the services OF
Harris and Canapary, considered the
two best backs in the lineup. 1t made a
showing that seemed to please Coach
O'Neil in anticipation of the game with
Amherst.
Eccles, acting in Harris's absence as
quarterback, showed good judgment in
running the team and took the ball
around the ends several times for sub
stantial gains. He probably will pilot
the team in Saturdays game, as Harris
has gone to Duluth in answer TO a tele-
gram telling him of the serious illness
Of his mother.
Capt Kienninger took part In the
scrimmage as centre on the second
eleven. Lewis Nohl. who dislocated his
shoulder early in the season played
left end for the scrubs during the sec
ond half and. considering that this was
his first brush in over three weeks, made
a strong showing at the wing position.
The game lasted four fifteen minute
periods and gave the varsity ample
time to romp up and down the field at
will. The scrubs we're on the defensive
almost continually. having to forward
pass or kick whenever the ball came
into their possession.
The second varsity made Its only score
when REILLY intercepted a forward pass
and ran eighty yards for touchdown.

HARVARD LINEUP
FOlbert Returns and Instead
of Playing Tackle Is Sent
to Guard.
Special Despatch to THE IrunALp.

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. Oct. 13-Several
radical changes were made In the regu-
lar Harvard lineup to-day The varsity
was able to score only two touchdowns
in an hours scrimrnage with the second
team. and the latter made four first
downs against the red jerseyed regulars.
Coach Huntington Hardwick, no for three
years was on the varsity, played for the
scrubs when the latter were on the de-
fensive, and did some deadly tackling.
Macomber and Kunhardt scored touch
downs. the former after long forward
pass from Johnson.
Jim Tolbert. who returned to scrim-
OF playing right tackle. his former posi-
ton, was sent to right guard, where he
displaced Fiske Brown, who so far has
failed to show the aggressiveness de-
rlanded Of Crimon forward.
Charlie Buell.. captain of last years
freshman team. led the varsity. and
Jewett Johnson. heretofore the regular
pilot acted as substitute. Capt Hor-
ween played fullback and made a num-
Der OF good rushes. The halfbacks were
Humphrey and Hamilton. who are vet
Grams of one years standing. They dis
placed respectively George Owen and
Winnie Churchill. sophomores. who so
far have proven Crimson stars. Owen
has started the three games played to
date.
Coach Fisher would not say whether
the shifts will be in force Saturday,
when Harvard meets Williams. Sew

went for big second team gains to-day.
