There have been a number of changes in the blue eleven since the Brown game, and Coaches Hinkey and Shevlin are optimistic concerning the outlook for the battlo with the Tigers. On the other hand Coach “Speedy’”” Rush and his band of Princeton moleskin warriors a out to trim the Yale boys in maste: style. The Tiger cleven boys came out of the game with Harvard in 80od condition and are now keyed up for their final game of the year. The probable lineup of the two teams are: Princeton—Left end, Highley; left tackle, McLean; left guard, Nourse; center, Gennert; right : Hogg; right tackle, Parisette: right end, Lamberton; quarterback, Glick; left halfback, Shea; right halfback, Tibbott; fullback, Driggs.

COLUMBIA AGAIN APPEALS TO TRINITY New York University Once More Sends Letter Asking That Brickley Be Kept Out. New York, Nov. 10.—Settlement of the Columbia-Trinity controversy over George Brickley, the professior Trinity’s football team was made yes- terday, according to the Columbla football authorities Harry A. Fisher, sraduate manager of athletics at Col- umbia, said last night that the defin- ite announcement whether the game between the two college will be played on South fielq Saturday after- noon was made public yesterday. Mr Fisher explained that all angles ot the Columbia end of the intricate sit- uation were discussed at the meeting of the committee on athletics Monday night, and that there is nothing more for this board to do. He said taat un- less the unforseen happens this com- mittee will hold no more meetings to talk over the Brickley matter and that everything now depends on a Teply from Trinity to the letter sent by the Columbia football management Mon- day night. This letter was dispatcned to Hart- ford after Columbia had received word that Brickley would positively play in Saturday’s game and in all probability it was one last appeal to the Trinity authorities to keep George Brickley out of the contest Mr. Fisher w any other features of the controversy last night but the feeling of confidence existing at Columbia that Saturday's game would be played without a hitch in preliminary arrangements was suc- ceeded yesterday by a feeling of uncer- tainty. This was made all the more keen when it was learned that no tickets have been sold for the Colum- bia-Trinity game. Student members of the Columbia Ataletic assoclation were told that the pasteboards were not ready for distribution, and appli- cants for reserved seats have been asked to wait until today before or- dering their tickets s not inclined to discuss | The Minor College Squawk. (Modelled after the ancient complaint of the Big Elevens that small col- lege teams failed to furnish sufli- clent practice.) The coach of Binkville College stood weeping bitter tears; “We've got the best bunch here,” he said, “we've had in many vears; guards and tackles charge like steers—our halfbacks skim the ground— But we are shy on practice games to bring the squad around; We took on Yale and Pensy—we struck the Army lair, But you can’t build a good team up by running it through the air; We'd win the title in a walk and put 'em all to flight 1t we could find some good Big Team to give us half a fight.” Joshtown University the Coach heaved a sigh; Our At Head with sorrow in his eye; “I never saw a finer lot when I first came to town, But we've run shy on practice games and this has pulled us down; The Navy, Yale and Michigan—we faced 'em in a row, But couldn’t even get a sweat—much less a healthy blow; We've got eleven wonders here—with seven stars to spare— But vou can't keep a team in shape by running it through the air.” As we recall the harrowing and grewsome details, it has been exactly eight years since Yale scored a touch- down against Harvard. This hap- pened in 1907. Since that game Yale has beaten Harvard once by the field goal route and has secured two tles. But of touchdowns there has been nothing resembling the same. Yale has been in a bad slump for five vears, but in that time Princeton has beaten her only once. If the | Tigers fall upon this next occasion key might well call it a bum job |ana desist for good and all. | S Maybe She Is. Dear Sir: Why shouldn’t Pittsburg University be better at football than Princeton—or most of the others? She has 4,000 students to pick from— far more than Princeton—and she has Glen Warner. FRITZ. as o Those who are banking heavily vpon “Yale nerve” and ‘““Yale cour- age” for Saturday’s Tiger affair should remember ‘this—that efficiency is three-fourths of nerve and courage, and if by that date Yale hasn’'t de- veloped a greatly improved efficiency all the nerve in the shell-riddled uni- verse won't yank her safely through. | } In the main, good generalship in tootball is using the play that suc- ceeds. This is the only system that leaves the Second Guessers foiled and discomfited. ‘We understand that “important de- velopments will soon be under way | hetween Organized Ball and the ¥eds.” This leaves us as palpitant and as thrilled as if some unpleasant looking stranger had just stepped up and requested the loan of a match. We have seen a number of the big college elevens play this fall, and out of the lot we have seen ome All- American star—Fddie Mahan. Most of the others will have to come from Ccrnell, Pittsburg, Colgate, Chicago, the Oregon Aggies, Washington State or California University. | Rush vs. Haughton. Those following the course of Rush at Princeton should remember this— that while Haughton beat Yale 4 to 0 his first year, it took Haughton five years to bulld up an offence that coulq score a touchdown against Yale. In 1908, 1909, 1910 and 1911 Har- vard’s attack was always tossed back from the Yale goal line. It was not until 1912, Haughton's fifth year, that he finally drove his "nachine across. Haughton also lost his first game to Princeton, and by that time he had been at Harvar¢ developing hig sys- tem for the better purt of four years. Rush, in two montks, has done very 1 fine work. Fine enough to suggest that Princeton has no worry over the future, for within two more years Rush should have a system installed at Princeton as effective as the Haughton system huas been. Systems are not all soul and spirit. ! They are very largely of the flesh. As effective as Haughton has been, it must not be forgotten that for the last four years of his suciess he has had .a Brickley, a Hardwick, and then a Mahan ¢ bnild around. And one star is better than five pood average players. D We retra.t un earlier statement that Mahan is the only outstanding won- der we have scen this fall. There is spears, of vartmouth. Considerable guard, Mr. Spears.

What are the odds that within three years from now McGraw, Mack and Yale are not back in the Old Home- stead? MOHR AND BURNS TO BATTLE TONIGHT Fine Card Scheduled For This Eve- ning at Armory—Shea and Mc- Donald Both In Shape. A fine boxing exhibition has been arranged at the armory this eve- ning, when Walter Mohr of Brook- Iyn, N. Y., will stack up against Kid Burns of New York in the star mill of the evening, 12 rounds at 137 pounds. Both boys are sterling battlers, who mix it up from gong to gong, and the fray should prove to be one of the best that has ever been held in this city. The preliminaries are of the high- est order, bringing together Tommy Shea of New Haven, well known to local boxing enthusiasts, and Red McDonald of New York, the boy who faced Johnny Hayes in this city at s recent show. Shea has appeared here previously and always gave a good acount of himself. He is a clean fighter, always trying to do his best. It will mark his first appear~ ance in this city since he boxed e Tierney here at the Britton-Hyland The little Blonde miller from the metropolis made a host of friends in his go against Hayes, and he should make it very interesting for Mr. Shea this evening. Bennie McCoy of Baltimore, the boy picked to wrest the bantam- welght championship from Kid Wil- llams will meet. Young Allen in the curtain raiser of eight rounde. Allen apepared here with Joe Roeco, and although he was beaten, he made a good impression. John F. Willis will referee the go and E. 8. Kilby will hold the watch. TIGERS ARE FAVORITES, New York Belting Men Offer 10 .to 6 Odds on Soms of Old Nassau. New York, Nov. 10.—Wall street betting on Saturday's Yale-Princeton game favored the New Jersey eleven with odds of 10 to 6. Yale backers were asking 2 to 1. Fred Schumm, the betting com- missioner, was offering 10 to 6 frce- 1y on Princeton, His odds on the Harvard-Brown game were 10 to 7 tc 10 to 6, with $1,000 offered on the latter basis. Harvard is a favorite over Yale at odds of 10 to 6. A bet was made in Schumm'’s to- day of $500 at even money that the Navy would beat the Army in their annual game.

Our Special YALE’S TEAM WORK IMPROVES SLIGHTLY Allow Signal sl Practice—-Lineup Coaches Only Dummy for Tiger Game Undeolded. New !iaven, Conn., Nov. 10.--Tom Shevlin and his fellow-members of the Yale football Boord of Stralegy yesterdy duplicated yesterday's pigh gram of inactive practice. Last night they planned to order serimmoging this afternoon, but today changed their plans, creating the imipression that the players have mot yet fally recovered from the exhaustion of thoe Brown game. As tomorrow will close scrimmage work before the appest- ance of Princeton here, only a single day's actual football Will be ailow- ed the players in which to master Shevlin wing-shift plays, which th executed poorly last Saturday, The coaches will not decide on the make-up of the eleven which will play Princeton until Thursday, Gates at left tackle, Church at left end | ana Jim Sheldon at right guard, are all insecure in their positions, Gates only by reason of his light weight, which, the coaches feay could uet | withstand the powerful drive of ti | Princeton backs. Indications are that | Higginbotham will go to left emd | tomorrow. Kent to right guard amd | Baldridge to left tackle. i Features of today's practice wepe the signal rehearsal and dummy of- tensive work. In the latter the 'var- sity walked leisurely through plays against the Ineligible, the coaches lecturing the regulars on tireir | individual positions at cvary point of the execution of the play. The teamwork during the signal practice was reported better. Although Guernsey was at fulle back today it was learned that Seo- vil will be in uniform tomorrow amd will take part in the signal rehesr- sal. The coaches expect to use him for part of the Prineceton. [ Burr Chamberlain, Captain of &C ‘98 eleven, joined the coaches. He gave special attention te the tackles Howard Jones, who was Hinkey' predecessor as head coach, looked after the ends, Dr. Billy Bull, the Yale backfisid coach, who saw the Harvard-Prince. ton game, sald today in The Ylle Dafly News that Yale is at present outclassed in every department of play by the Harvard and Princetoh elevens in the form they displayed last Saturday. He sald Captain Bddy Mahan possessed more football ablis ity than any other player he had ever seen.
