McCauley Eligible
For Football Squad
May Play Saturday

John McCauley, member Of last
years Cony grid aggregation. who
thus far has been ineligible because
of schola site requirements. has over
come those difficulties and is now eli
gible to play for the school. While
it is not. of course. known at this time
whether he will play in the game next
Saturday at Skowhegan. there is a
good chance that he will do SO.
Last year Johnny played in the
backfeld and showed UP to good ad-
vantage there. His grit in carrying
the ball was worth lot to Cony and
his addition to the squad will give
Coach Morrill, that much more good
material to work with.
John left school last year before the
end of the spring term so that he
might accept position for the sum-
mer and was ineligible to the squad
this year until this work was made
up. He has been plugging and has
qualified, much to the joy of both
himself and his schoolmates.

|RED HOT TALK
| PUTSPEP INTO
COLBY CRIDDERS
Especial to Kennebec JournaD


Waterville, Oct. l. - Coach
Roundy used more than actions this
afternoon on the athletic field at
Colby college in dealing with the
candidates for the Blue and Gray
eleven. Disguised by the lack of
spirit and fight IN both teams A and
b. he halted the practice in the mid
die of the afternoon and gave all
of the men present a toung flashing
which they will not forget for some
time to come.
The Blue and Gray mentor as
good as told the men on team A that
their positions were not secured
merely because they were in them at
the present time and that If a man
was doing poor work he would be
dropped at once as there were plenty
of others to fill his place. After a
few minutes Of hot talk, the two
elevens went back to their scrim-
mage practise with a great deal
more vim and fight than they have
shown all fall. Coach Roundy's
firery talk escaped not one of those
out this afternoon.
The first part of the program this
afternoon consisted of tackling work
on the dummy and later signal drill.
The better part of the afternoon was
passed in scrimmaging and it was
a real scrimmage too at the end.
Team A could not penetrate the stiff
line which team B put forth but
managed to gain a few Yards around
the ends. On the other hand, the
backtield of team r was unable to
make gain against their rivals and
in fact most of the time they lost a
yard or two when the heavy lines
men on team A crashed through
their line and threw the backs for
substantial losses. The afternoons
workout was completed with charg-
ing practise.
Tomorrow afternoon the Blue and
Gray elevens will probably take a
long but easier workout as it will be
the last time that they will have
an opportunity to practise before
the Brown game.
The freshman team under Assist
ant Coach Edwards put in long
afternoon on the lower campus with
kicking drills and signal work. There
are two or three real punters on the
yearling aggregation and it begins
to look as though they would turn
out a team which will do them cred
il. Coach Edwards is ia pidly getting
them into condition for the game
with Winslow High school Saturday
and it looks as though the fast
Orange team across the river would
stack up against a rival which will
be the toughest that they have met
so far this season. With an impress
slNe victory over the Lawrence
team last Saturday and q scoreleSS
tie played with tony at Augusta
two weeks ago, the Winslow team
seem to have the edge but as yet
the strength and ability of the Blue
and God yearlinss is to be tested.
