SQUAD HAS HARD WEEK AHEAD Season Opens Saturday With Alumni Eleven as Opponent After threo daya of well earned rest, the candidates for the N. B. H. S. football team donned tha regalia again thia afternoon and have started what is expected to be one of the hardest weeks of training that they will ba called upon to endure during tha sea- son. The four ds and br George evening limbered so that boys were given stiff workouts last week and it waas a stift sed lot of players that Coach Cassidy dismissed Thurday The aching bones hava been up and the bruises healed the boys will return to tha practice tonight, according to their statements, “as hard as hob nails.” Coach Cassidy has mapped out tha entire week’s work far in advance be- causc of the fact that his chargea are 1o line up against the Alumni eleven Saturday afternoon at St. Mary's play- grounds. Three saquads are being drilled with the samo set of signali ind several of the plays which are most likely to be tried out against the former wearers of the red and gold, are bsinz taught them. The coach will therefore be in a position to keep his team in tip-top shape throughout Saturday’'s contest The Alumni eleven, captained by “Jazi'' Renehan, i3 expected to lina up against the schoo! team about 20 pounda to thé man heavier than tha N. B. H. 8. The school team is fully aware of the handicap of weight, but yet confidence reigns in their camp. Tha next week may see a few changes in the prospective lineup which Coach Cassidy has been work- ing as the nucleus of a first squad. A new l:kely hai been unearthed who, those who hava watched him say, i1 the logica! man for one of the end positions. He is Meucke, a 140 pound youngster, who {s a flash on his feet and a sure tackle; good on pulling down forwards and grabbing punts, and in general a lad who lcoks like a football find. Coach Cassidy has been working Capt. Feinman at a tackle position for the past few practices. Feineman played at guard last season and turn- ed in excellent work. His work at tackle is equally as good and the coach feels that he would be of more value to the team in that position. There are several guard candidates, one of whom will be selected in a few days to replace Feineman at that po- sition. S. R. & L. OUTING. The fiftieth outing of the S.

The procession of club wielders was led by no less a golfer than Wallie Hunter, British champion, accompan- ied by H. R. Johnston, of St. Paul, the Minnesota state champion, who hai scored 70 with frequency this season by virtue of his long drives. This pair, getting away at 9 o'clock for the first round, made it necessary for them to start on the second cir cuit at 45 p. m., only an hour afte: the last pair started their first trip around ‘the 6,351 yard course. The tail enders starting at 3:20 on the sec- ond 18 holes were scheduled to finish medal play after 6 o'clock this eve- ning. Scattered throughout the string of players were such prominent golfers as Bobby Jones of Atlanta, runner up two years ago, who scored 70 on Fri- day, playing with H. Chandler Egan, Portland, twice champion, R. E. Knep- per, Sioux City, Iowa champion and runner up to Evans in the western amateur championship, Francis Oui- met, Boston, former national open and amateur champion; Jesse Guilford, the long driver from Massachusetts and Bob Gardner, who not only won the national title twice, but carried Cyril Tolley to 37 holes for the British title last vear.

YANKS ARF BACK IN FIRST PLACE Duteh Leonand Works Well in Important Contest New York, Sept. 19.—Back Into the lead in the tense race of the Amerl- can leaguo came the Yankees yester- day, fighting their way to a splendid victory over the Tigers by 4 to 2, while the Indians were yielding to the Senators. Back to the fore by a mar- gin of two points crashed the determ- ined New Yorks — battling gamely against pitching which was most po- tent in a pinch and battling to triumph while more than 37,000 sent their encouragement resounding through the tightly packed Polo Grounds. It was a fine game to win—that stirring struggle in which so much was at stake for the Yankces. For them it was a crisis and they met the urgenzy of the occasion like true champlons. It was a fine game to win, particularly in the tace of the strong pitching which the Tigers got dur- ing the six innings in which the still effective Dutch Leonard worked for them—in the face of the antagonizing tactics of a great player but indif- ferent manager by the name of Ty Cobb.
