\ Yearlings Reach First Teams
One Yard Line in Scrim-
mage at Baker Field


Columbia University's football prac
noon was marked by the first scrim-
mage Of the year between the varsity
and freshmen. "Doc" Cooks charges,
who opened their season Saturday by
scoring 81 to victory over Concor-
dia Prep, showed up we'll despite the
fact that Stanley, Sohst and Wagner,
constituting one side Of the freshman
line. we're missing.
Given the ball on their own 28-yard
line, the yearlings steadily stalked
down the field to within one yard Of
the goal line. However, before the
varsity should suffer the ignominy Of
being scored upon by the frst-year
men---but, 1t must be remembered 1t
was just defensive drill for the
varsity-the cubs were withdrawn from
the gridiron to get in little signal
practice on another part of the field.
George Pease, formerly of Manual
Training, was responsible for numer-
Gus gains yesterday. When about
seven yards from the varsity goal line,
George decided that he would carry the
ball over. He was tackled, the bali
bounce he caught it again, advancing
to the one-yard line, where the
freshmen stopped their work against
the varsity for the day.
Ray Kirchmier, fullback from Tech
nical High School, Buffalo, and Hardy
were also responsible for long gains.
The freshmen will meet Dean
Academy Friday afternoon and Satur-
day the varsity will meet Tom Thorp's
New York University eleven In the
annual intracity clash at South Field.
The varsity lined up against the
freshmen eleven without the services
Of Ben Roderick, who had late classes,
with che result that Bob Pulleyn was
brought up from the second team.
Gordon Stretch, who started at left
tackle against Wesleyan, was second
stringer yesterday, and Kess Scovil,
captain Of last years varsity eleven,
who has had his ups and downs in
second team, was at tackle on the
varsity. William B. Johnson was again
unable to take his position at right
end, where he started Saturday, on ac-
count of his injured ankle. His place
was taken by Jimmy Myers, end on
last years freshmen eleven.
After the workout with the fresh
men, the varsity and second team
scrinlmaged for about three quarters
Of an hour. Alec Watt, nephew Of
Bob Watt, the. graduate manager, who
has been playing at end since he re-
ported last week, scooped up varsity
tumble on the 50-yard line and ran
for touchdown for the second eleven.
Later, Bob Pulleyn went through left
tackle for 55-yard run and a varsity
