Coach Fisher has not made definite

Cambridge Is that he will not use any

Two Exceptional Kickers
on Eleven at Lafayette
Brennan and Brunner Among
Best of Season.

Lafayette will uncover two star foot
bail kickers against Washington and
Jefferson at the Polo Grounds on Satur
day. In quarterback Matt Brennan and
halfback Brunner the Maroon has a
pair OF toe artists who can hold their
cwn at kicking with the best In the
country. Drummer Is one OF the leading
scorers OF the East this season, having
a total OF 90 points to his credit in five
games, consisting of eight touchdowns
and twelve goals. He has not missed \
try for point after touchdown this
fall.
Brennan. who does the punting for
Lafayette, drives a long. low. twisting
spiral hard to gauge and harder to hold
He has excellent control and direction
and can drop the ball close to or over
the side line when strategy demands,
with far better success than the average
kicker. His skill In punting permits
Brennan to work In perfect cooperation
with his ends and there are few oppos-
ing backs who can gain ground agains.

The Lafayette quarter has the advan-
tage Of WORKING behind q powerful and
almost charge proof line. which enables
him to concentrate on his puntins with

met.
Beckett. some followers of the Yale
eleven insist. is Just as good as Charley
O'Hearn, especially In directing the
team, and his return is hailed with de-
light. He took charge Of the varsity
to-day during the fore part OF hard

That Beckett will play In the Brown

Mack stating this afternoon that his
hand Is now as good as ever. Beckett
featured the scrimmage with a forty
yard run, bringing the ball to the fifteen
yard line. Doc Jordan advanced 1t
