Crimson in Prime Condition for Big Battle With Princeton Tomorrow— Oripple List is Small. Cambridge, Mass., Nov. §.—Except for today's short signal practice and the usual work on kickoffs, the Har- ‘Varsity football eleven is now dy tor the coming of the Princeton Tigers. The coaches here feel that the eleven is very fit, and that one or two of the players, particularly Hubbard, the right tackle, who have been on | the injured list, will enter the game absolutely sound, and ready to measure up to the standard of "Varsity | play.

Middictown Collegians Look for & Vic- tory Tomorrow Over Amherst. Mddletown, Nov. 5.—On Saturday | of this week the Wesleyan football team will meet her old time rival, Ambherst, on the Andrus fleld in this | city. Both teams have had a fairly i successful season thus far this year. Amherst, howeyer, was defeated in her first game by Brown by a score of 13 to 0, while Wesleyan defeated Rhode Island State 20-0 in her first game, Amherst also bowed to Colum- bia by a score of 20 ta 7, whereas the Wesleyan team trampled them 10-0. The Wesleyan aggregation has not yet been defeated and Coach Dan Kenan | Is counting on his tenm to go through | the season with a clean slate. They had a light practice this af- ternoon which was taken up mostly | with light formation work and signal practice. A number of new formations | were tried out and seemed to work well Severul ne plays in forward passing were carried out successtully. Heuer Lawson and Abbott practiced punting and showed improvement, Heuer showing up best. Peck, who | @lready has five fleld goals to his credit, p sed drop kicking for a short time afternoon Wesleyan expects a hard foe in Am- herst this Suturday. The back fleld of the two teams seem to be fairly even- Jy matehed. Toth are fast in offensive | and strang in the defensive work. Hricyk is probably the star of the Pur- ple's kfield, while Peck has shown up best for Wesleyan, Peck has 41 points to his credit so far this season while Brick has only 36 HARRIERS.

Y., Nov. 5.—Judge Mil- ler was yesterday asked about what he thought of the Walker boxing law and he said he had been so busy with the campaign for the last few months that he had not even had time to study the law and therefore was not in a position to talk on the subject yet. He added: . “I don’t think it will be advisable for me to comment upon the Walker boxing bill inasmuch as I am not fa- miliar with it. I have not had an opportunity to study it and naturally I prefer to withhold comment until I have examined carefully the provi- sions.” Those in touch with the governor- elect picture him as a friend of sports and they say that he will not inter- fere with boxing while it is run in a clean nner. Not very long ago Judge iller was a clever baseball player and every chance he gets now he takes in the big league games. The governor-elect's six daughters are all keenly interested in athletics, the oldest ones being especially so in horseback riding, golf, tennis and swimming. U. S. HOCKEYISTS LOSE. London, Nov. 5.—The first women's field hockey team to represent Amer- ica in an international match was de- feated at Wimbledon yesterday by the Surrey Ladies’ eleven by a score of 8 goals to 2. All of the women of the American team are residents of Phil- adelphia and with the exception of Miss Goodman, who is still a student of Springfield School of Philadelphia, are graduates of private schools in the vicinity of Philadelphia. The Americans are the guests of the All England Women’s Hockey Association and are scheduled to play eight more games before returning to America. BROWN LOOKS FOR WIN Plenty of Confidence fs Followers of Providence Team— Callahan May Not Play Tomorrow. Shown by New Haven, Conn., Nov. 5.—For the first time since their injury a month ago Captain Tim Callahan and John Acosta were today used in Yale's daily scrimmage football practice, and al- though the coaches admit that they do not expect to use either against Brown, they state that there is a pos- sibility that they will send them into the play for a few minutes. With plen- ty of Brown followers laying odds at even terms, the Yale coaches feel that they will be compelled to use their strongest team to outscore the visitors. Thorne Murphy ran the eleven at quarter back and it 1s likely that he will be used as field general, at least in the.first half, although he has had only three days of scrimmaging since his return from the hospital squad. Kempton was rested yesterday but expects to be used practically the en- tire game against Brown, starting at halfba>x and finithing as quarter after the retirement of Murphy. TIGERS GIVEN SENDOFF Thousands of Students Snake-Dance, Sing and Cheer as Team Embarks for Cambridge, Mass. Princeton, N. J., Nov. B&.—Two thousand undergraduates snake- danced their way over the campus of old Nassau this evening, as Prince- ton’s 'Varsity football squad embarked for Cambridge and the Harvard game. Two thousand lusty throats sang Princeton f(\tit\l)all songs and roared | “tiger” cheers as the cars that held i the team and the coaching staff pulled out of the station just before 8 o'clock. It was the first time since 1916 that Princeton has sent her football team to the Harvard stadium, and it was a rousing sendoff that she gave it. INDUSTRIAL LEAGUE . OPENING SATURDAY N. B. Machine to Play Champions . —Stanley Works vs. Torrington The opening game of the Industrial Basketball league will be played to- morrow evening at State Armory Arch street between the New Britain Ma- chine Company five and P. & F. Cor- bins, champions of last vear's league. The New Fritain Machine Company five gave the leaders a fight for the pennant, taking second place so in to- morrow’s game the contest will be for first blood. Vic Larson has Restelli, who starred in the New Britain Ma- chine Compamny uniform last year, and he will have Cossette and Mor- gan of last year’s team, with him. The New Britain Machine company has some basketball stars to pick from. Charley Miller will be back in the game this year. For guards the N. B. crowd have Begley and Locke. Sheehan and Reynolds will probably be the forwards. Kallgren will prob- ably start at center. Avery and Jimmy Maher, familiar figures on the basket- ball surface, will be out with the team. The N. B. boys will appear in new uniforms tomorrow. At a meetiig of the team a captain will be chosen. The big game tomorrow night will be between the Stanley Works five and the Torrington town team. There will be two games under the Industrial league auspices every meet- ing this season and dancing will fol- low until midnight. O’Brien’s orches- tra will play for the dancing. Dillon will be the referee. —_— Read the N. Y. Call —advt. every day. Gormi: Kraus Green Schacher .

The Nutmegs will play the speedy | Burr Roads eleven Sunday afternoon a Vibberts Field. The vsitars are coming to this city with a fine rec- ord, and are confident of giving the locals @ warm argument. The B. R.’s have held the American Chain com- pany eleven to a 6-0 score this sea- son, and among the victims are the ‘Winchester Field A C. of New Haven and the Yonkers A. A. The locals have spent a busy week polishing up the defects that were so plainly noticeable last Sunday. tain Phil Nelson, who has played at fullback for the Nutmegs for two seasons, has been shifted to the line by the coaches. Ilere it is felt his weight will count n bolstering the Tine. The kickoff will be at 3 o'clock Sunday afternoon. Clesson Parker will be thé referee. Mr. G. H.
