New York, Oct. 7.-Coach Ed McNe"ly is driving the Brooklyn Horsemon through stiff workouts these afternoons in preparation for the tough schedule his squad will have 10 face in the next three or four weeks. With the coming of George Wilson's Wildcats Sunday afternoon at Commercial Field. the Horsemcn will plunge into the toughest stretch Of their October campaign. almost as tough as the Windup Of the season when Red Oranges Yankees.

Manning Is a good football player, there isn't any question about that. but there are others who are just as good as he is and there are some who are better. Right now, New Britain with Ed Hunt at quarter back, a man who knows the signals and the plays as taught to the team by Coach Ed Hayes, is a better as set than a single running star of Manning's caliber.
