Brennan and McCarty are again availa- ble for ound duty, while Sukeforth and AMurtaugh are the old backstops. In ad- dition to the veteran pitchers O'Rellly has working out three new men he ex pects to come through—Brags, Burch and Fogarty. Murphy, Zega and Graham are work- itig out at first base. 5o far Murphy has the call. Both the other men, espacially Zega, are fine ficlders, but Murphy not only can field the pusition, but is a bet- tor hitter than either of the other men contending for the job. So far ae second, third and short are concerned, there is not much doubt that they will be held down by he samg men Who did so well a year ago in the posi- ions. Ryun at second, Quinn at third and U at she are fixtures. Uran, it might be mentioned, is captain. Dono- van and Flavin also are working out nd second and Duncan at ehort. Duncan is « former member of the Naval Academy squad, but never made the team, according to report. Mudd, who played first & vear ago and has been shifted to outfleld, and Albert, last years star center fielder, seem fo be certain of two of the three garden berths. The third job will go to O'Neil, McLean or O'Leary. Right now there does not seem to be much differ- ence in their performances, and It is a p as to who the Blue and Gray | will start the opening game, to be played with Temp H o is D March 26.

Coach Chariey Moran has lus:‘ seven from his 1924 team, but of these it seems that he should have difficulty replacing only three, De Nault, Breslin and Cummings, the first mentioned at shortstop and the last two in the stfield, did most of | the hitting for Brooklanders in| the 1924 games, and so far no trio who match up anywhere near them in batting ability have been developed.

Bo Sho is rather small, but actually seems to be the best bet. McMahon and DuFour are to do the catching. Moran's main trouble seems that’ he got but one player from jest year's freshman team. That one is Keale, and he seems to be 80 good at first base that no other candidate has even a remote chance of beating him out. Adams appears to have a| strangle hold on shortstop, but a battle is going on for second and4 third. Garvin and Kenney are fight- sng it out for the former job and Ig- ace and Reiter for the latter. | Seven men ara working for the outfleld positions.

Stevens and Troxell, the former from the freshman nine and the latter varsity first sacker a year ago, are hoth excellent plavers, and what to do with both is one of Ship- ley's problems. Yesterday Shiiey had Murray, 1924 freshman third @man, working at the hot cormer, Hesley at short, Moran at second and Stevens at first.

Tt will not be the samne, nowsWalter has gowe.” ; F gr in Now Haven In 1838, Waller Camp was_born in New Haven, Conn. April 17, 1839, the son of Liverett L. and Bllen Cornwell Camp. After ~attending Honkins Grammar School shd completing his preparatory work he entered Yale in the fall of 1875 ang was graduated in | 1880. He then cntired the Yale Medi- cul School, but after two years re- signed to enter business with a clock manufacturing concern in this city. The Tollowing yeur he was back in New Haven as assistant manager of the New Haven Clock Co., and in the latter organization he roge to general manager. then treasurer and then president. He relinquished the last office several years ago to become chairman of the board of directors. But although remarkably success- ful in business, it was in the world of sports that he gained his greatest and lasting fame, firet as a particis pant and later as a coach, a writer and a legislator. Active in Many Sport His foot ball carebr began as & freshman at Yale in the rough and tumble days of the svort. Eligiblliry laws were not as they are now, and Camp participated in varsity sport, not only as a fresiman, but also dur- ing his twg years in medical school, and was a mighty factor in winning gridiron glory for the Blue. Foot ball was not his only sport, for he held captaincies in both foot ball and base ball during his under- graduate years, rowed on hix class | crew, represented the university in | the first intercolleginte tennis tour- nament and competed as a hurdier and quarter-miler in the varsity track and field meets, His interest in foot ball and in college sports generally continued | after his competitive years had ended. | As treasurer of the Yale Financlal Union he introduced to Yale and to college dircles generally a systgm ! of Rnancing whereby all SPOFLS. | whether conducted on a paying or | osing basls, were financed by a | general fund. Theretofore each sport was expected to pay its own way or pass ouy, Thus the benefits of many non-paying sports were saved (o the sehools. - Famsd for “All-America” Teams. Camp was perhgps best known | through the medium of his “All-Amer- ica” foot ball elevens, which he had | selected at the close of each gridiron season since 188%. In choosing his earller honor elevens his selections were confined to the so-called Big Three teams, but as the game was taken up in other sections he at- tempted to make his honor elevens natfon-wide in their scope and trav- aled many thousands of miles to wit- ness Western and Pacific coast stars in actien. Shortly after his résignation from the Yale Medical School he became & member of the Intércollegiate foot ball rules committee, and had served as chalrman and more recently as sec- retary of that body. He was a prime factor in developing the modern game of foot ball. The first step made at his suggestion was the rule requiring | a gain of 5 in three downs: another blg step was made through his sup- port of the jntroduction of the for- ward pass and the rule calling for & gain of 10 yurds on four plays. He was & bitter opponent of smart and dangerous practices, such as “glin- ping” and “Indianizing,” and it was| through his insistence that new regu- | latlons regarding danferous equip- ment were Inserted in the rule books. Originated the “Daily Dozen.” During the World War he organized and directed the physical training of the Navy and the Air Service and at the close incorporated many of the exercises he taught in his “dally dozen"—a system of setting-up exer- clses in which phonograph records were employed to order and maintain the cadence of the drill. < Camp wrote extensively on foot ball and on other tports. He was the author of several books on college sports and a contributor to-a number of magazines. Gamp Developed Many Stars. NEW HAVEN, Conn.. March 14.— Walter Camp, who died in New York today. was one of the greatest buck-field players in his day. in the opinion of those who have followed foot ball at Yale for a third of a cen- tury. In Camp's student days the formidable contenders against Yale were Wesleyan, Rutgers, Tufts and Princeton. Harvard was not then re- garded as a great opponent, although the early games wére often noted for remarkable feats. Camp is sald to have come into unusual prominence in one of the Harvdrd games when he digplayed skill in running through a broken fleld.

Seniors mect the Second Semester. Semesters. There is little doubt but that the upper classmen will come out on top in both matches, but in this event there will be speculation regarding next Friday's clash when these upper class teams face each other to decide the school championship. With both sextets about equally matched on the offensive, and. to date, equally ineffective when placed on the defensive, it is thonght that the Juniors will have the edge on their rivals on ac- count of their sunerior center plays. However, that does not mean that th; seTies is over except for the form of t tournament, for if the Seniors can dupli- cate last Friday's fight and speed next Friday the Juniors will be forced to the Jimit to come out of the fray with the big end of the score. Then Misses Martin, Burke and Boyd, center and forwards for the ‘Seniors, exhibited some clever intersectional passes that will be hard to break up. The particu- Jar strength here is that both forwards are accurate shooters. The Fourth Semester vs. the Second Semester match was a contest to keep out of the cellar position, with the former winning out, 10—3. Friday's game finished the season, for the Fourth Semesters with one vicfory and three defeats.swhile the Second Semester has dropped three games, with another lost on the horigon when it meets the Seniors Monda; Central Teams Are Riady. After a long practice season, begin- ning after the Christmas holidays, Cen- tral girls are ready to show basket ball enthusiasts that they can display eome mighty good playing on their court. In fact, the Juniors already have given a good sample of what they can do in the favorite indoor sport when they out- played the Monday Seniors Friday to the tune of 26—16. Tvy Stevens showed the way for the Junlors, while Virginia Tal- bot added most of the Seniors’ peints.
