Dobie Uses Newcomers
On Eleven at Cornell

ITHACA, N. Y, Sept. 29.--Gil Dobie's
Masked Marvcls," as local wit has
named the Cornell football team, are
tuning up for the University OF
Rochester game, which opens the local
season Saturday. To-day was Dobie 9
last opportunity to work in a double
practice, morning and afternoon. With
the opening Of the university to-mor-
row morning practice will necessarily
have to be abolished and afternoon
practice confined to not more than
three hours on three afternoons and
two hours on the other two week days.
If the makeup Of the teams on the
field to-day is any criterion men never
heard of before in football at Cornell
or anywhere else will be in Dobie' 8
lineup this season. One of the first
string ends, Wagner. has played base
ball, but no football at Cornell. Gouin-
lock, another end, has, also had no ex-
perience here. The same IS true of

Carpenter Makes Good
Showing; Nearly Drops
One Sparring Papener
By w. O. Mcclellan

Georges Carpenter. heavyweight
champion Of Europe, had his first pub
lie workout in the United States at
the Elks Club at Summit, N. j., yester-
day in the presence of local critics.
Carpenter did some vigorous boxing
with Joe Jeannete, who kept him quite
busy. Then he boxed with Young Joe
Cans and Marcel r. omas, middle
weights.
What impressed the large gathering
OF critics, amateur and professional.
Against the big negro Jeannette, veteran
OF many battles in. the United States
and France, Georges seemed rather
1rall, being outweighed nearly fifty
pounds. Against Cans and Thomas he
had better chance to show his speed.
Georges nearly upset Cans after q
minute with right hook to the ear.
Young Joe's knees sagged, but Carpen-
tier rescued him from falling by catch
ing him under the arms. Jeannette fsn-
lshed out the round. The Frenchman
showed himself to be snappy punch
er and not once during the exhibition
did he take a step backward.
Carpenter prefers open air train
ing, and does most Of his real work In
the open air, but it was explained 60
him that he must give a training ex-
hlbltlon; consequently the show SO the
Elks Club. In order to simulate open
air conditions a second was constantly
waving a towel during the exhibition.
This was supposed to suggest the
breezes of the great outdoors and all
that sort of thing.
While Carpenter is q comparatively
frail looking person, as compared with
Dempsey and the other American
heavyweights, he has stalwart pair
Of legs. Various trainers have their
theories about the usefulnes OF legs to
a boxer. While it Is true that Fitx-
simmons stood on a pair Of frail
spindles, Bill Brown, veteran trainer
and referee, maintains that boxer is
only as strong as his legs.
The French champion now weighs
172 pounds, which is exactly the same
weight as that of his first antagonist
here, Battling Levinsky. The Battler
is now working at White Sulphur
Springs, where Frank Moran trained
for his bout with Jess Willard.
Levinsky and Carpenter will meet
In the Jersey City Baseball Park on
October IL, nominally for che light
heavyweight championship Of The
world. But the real interest in the
bout Is to determine whether or not
Carpenter would have the traditional
Chlnaman's chance with Jack Dempsey
in a bout for the heavyweight cham
plonship.

women's replayed New York State
championship singles tournament, on
the clay courts Of the New York Tennis

Mrs. S. ]. Strauss by score of 6-1,
Ga, and Mrs. G.. Rosenthal took the
measure of Mrs. G. B. Hirsch at e.,
4-6, 6-3, in the fourth round brackets.
Among those who defaulted yesterday
was Mrs: Edward Raymond, former
metropolitan champion, and the one
player IN the tourney regarded as hav-
ing at least an equal chance with Miss
Wagner.
Mrs. Raymond defeated Miss Wagner
in the Ardsley Clubs invitation event

Colgate Squad Preparing

Fordhan's Varsity
Hits Scrub Line
Hard i'm Scri1nnnage

The Fordham football team was put
through gruelling workout at Ford
ham Field yesterday afternoon. The
practice lasted more than two hours
and nearly half the time was spent in
scrimmage. Although the scrub line
held fairly we'll, the varsity eleven
succeeded in carrying the ball through
for three touchdowns.
Coach Dumoe made some changes in
his line and the new combination
worked we'll. Moran and Walsh held
the guard positions and Farrell and
Fallon played tackles. Fitzpatrick and
Miller remained at the ends. These
men will probably start in the opening
game against the New York Aggies
next Saturday.
The Maroon mentors spent consid-
cradle time yesterday drilling their
charges in catching and throwing for
ward passes. The attention which
Dumoe and Mcdonald have been giving
to this department of the game recent
y indicates that they will rely on
the aerial route frequently during the
season.
With the fastest backfield that Ford
nam mas had IN years and with tour
reliable ends in Fitzpatrick, Banks,
Miller and Ryan, the Maroon eleven is
particularly adapted to this form of
attack.
The Aggies are expected to give the
Bronx aggregation spirited opposition
