Yale Starts
First Summer
Football Drills

New Haven, Conn, July 7.-UP)
Summer football practice opened
for the first time in Yale's sports
history today as HOWE Odell began
assembling the material for his tni-
tial season as chief Of the Eli grid
combination.
About II candidates were ready
for try-outs for the freshman squad
under Coach Reggie Root. The var
sity material was uncertain, as only
a handful of veterans were left over
from the last season.
These tested players included Capt.
Spence Moseley, center; Ed Taylor,
Jim Potts, Chuck Willoughby, Tim
Hopes and Jack Ferguson, backs;
Jack Ried, George Rubel and Steve
Stack, guards; Gordy Miller and
George Greene, ends; Ted Kiendl,
tackle.
New Idea
It was the first time the football
squad went into training before the
middle of September, with the ex-
ception of short spring drills.
The baseball squad also reported
today to Capt. Tom Whalen to make
ready for the opening game against
Amherst July II. The freshman
team, which went through the
spring season with only one defeat,
was the mainstay of the squad
which lost it's key men through
June graduation.
The baseball schedule: July 18
Fort Wright at Fort Wright; July
20 Amherst at Amherst; Aug. !
Providence College; Aug. 8, Provi-
dence at Providence; Aug. Is,
Brown; Aug. % Brown at Provi-
dence.

ready for a community sing Of that
old Harry Lauder favorite-"Roamin
in the Gloamin'". AS it got under
way, they began expecting a revival
Of I'm Darkest Africa" Tarpaulins
were spread so thickly that the only
things left exposed were the knees
of the little lady in the front row
center. The changing light condi-
tons made the players as nervous
as a dog in a new apartment, but
the evenings moral-never trust an
American Lacquer after dark-was
soon brought home.
Batting against Mort Cooper in
the first inning was something like
playing grab bag at a booth where
every string is attached to first
prize. The top of the American
League batting order fattened up on
him like a dowager cutting loose in
a confectionery shop. Oh, well, just
another a other, case Of q Cooper being over
Joe Mccarthy came out of sick
bed for the game but he had more
time on his. hands than a traffic
cop patrolling the Bronx Parkway
since the gas rationing program was
effected. Boudreau wasn't just the
star, he was the whole blamed Big
Dipper. York was as much in de-
mand as last years bathing cap.
And Gordon gobbled grounders the
way a pin ball machine consumes
nickels as that Dodger fan said,
though, how could the Nationals
expect to win without French, Ca
mill and Walker?
Before the game the bunch play
ers pointed out that the Nationals
had won in 1896, 1888 and 1910 =
thus, why not 1912? Ham Fish and
a number of other congressman
wish they, too, could find the answer
to that one.

No Dynamite

Most Of the senior circuit players
waved their bats like SO many
reichstag members heiling Hitler.
And If the 1912 Dodgers are sup
posed to be the successors to the
old Bronx Bombers, they must have
taken off with load of peace leaf
lets instead of dynamite.
Be that as 1t may, the twilight
arc-light- black-out game did pro-
duce one excellent idea. AS the man
from Cincinnati suggested, base
ball in Philadelphia might become
bearable If the Phils and AS adopt
ed this blue plate special method of
promoting games = with a couple
of revisions. Instead Of starting at
$50 p. M, let them begin their con-
tests at 1880 p. m. and donate
their lights to the metal salvage
drive.
