Then the visitors began a consistent rush which ended when Reeves carried the ball over for the first touchdown. The try for the drop kick falled ‘when Taylor blocked it. With the exception of one end run and a for- ‘ward pass for ten yards gains were made on line bucking. Comes Back Strong. New Britain came back strong and started to gain consistently, mostly through the efforts of Zehrer. Zehrer plcked an opening in left guard for five yards on the first play and Giero- chowski in left tackle for first down, First quarter ended on this play. A pass to MoCarthy netted 10 yards, Zehrer made three yards through left tackle, and on the next play he made six more yards in the same place. Gierochowski plowed through right tackle for nine yards baking it first down. On line plunges by Zehrer and Gierochowski the ball wag brought within three yards of the flnal chalk mark.

O'HEARN BADLY INJURED:; GAN NOT PLAY ANY MORE Eli Backfield Star's Leg Is Broken in Bucknell Game—In Hospital A Month New Haven, Oct. 22.—Charley O'Hearn has played his last gama of college football. Yale's great ail- around athlete lles in the New Haven General hospital with a. broken leg, recelved-in the tackle by a Bucknell end which swept him from Saturday's me in the iifth play. Dr. Leonard Sanford, the Yale team surgeon, set the broken bone and raid that O'Hearn would not lcave the hospital for at least a month. Quar- terback Murphy and End Luman, who were bruised in the game, were in much better condition today and will probably not miss any practice ses- sions. Yale's coaching council today decid- ed upon developing a place, distance and drop kicker to replace O'Hearn, Yale's toe specialist. Stevens, who re- placed him, and Neale, who is just recovering from a muscle bruise, were coached for this roll by Dr. Bull, Yale's veteran producer of kickers, The tackle and guard positions are not being played effectively, the coaches feel, and this week will he devoted to strenuous coaching of their occupants. Richeson and Neidlinger, quarter and halfback, who have been crippled by muscle bruises three weeks, will resume practice this week, Both may play against Brown on Baturday. Al- though Yale has a wealth of backfield material in Captain Mallory, Neale, Beach, Haas, Stevens and Cottle, no lineup has held for two days in suc- cession because of injuries, and the Rangers . re, Kasprow . rt, Sobeick + T, Antassio ¢, Argrossy 18, Recor .

This year he's captain of the Bti- vers high school eleven here, It won the southern Ohio championship In 1922, More than that, Vernon's practical- ly the whole squad. The only vet- eran left, this gritty youngster be- came the nucleus for the new ma- chine the Stivers coach began build- ing this season. Schwab, 18, and weighing 190, is a guard on the basketball team, too. He also plays ball and carries off medals in swimming. A hunting accident in 1921 cost him his right leg. Fellow students staged a pageant for his benefit. Pro- ceeds were sufficlent to buy him artificial ilmb and defray his schi expenses. Then Vernoif started to. come back. And he's still coming ! FOOTBALL REYIEW SHOWS 'WEAKNESS OF DEFENSES Princeton in Bad Shape—Harvard Not $o Strong—Stevens Looks Like Yale's Best Puntér at Present. New York, Oct. 22.—Bathed in ar- niea and touched up with lodine, the college football squads go into prac- tice today after the first serious bat- ties of the year, their coaches well supplied with information about just where the trouble with each team lies. Heavy scoring in a majority of Sat- urday's games indicated that defen- sive work had not been perfected on most playing machinés. Princeton, first rank of a lack of defense, is due for, some heavy line work befoere the Navy game next Saturday. After the Tiger's defeat of 25 to 2 at the hands of Notre Dame, it was announced that Charlie Caldwell and Forrest, varsity centers, and Dan Caulkins, the speedy regular quarter, would be back on the flald for this week's game at the Baltimore stadium against the An- napolis eleven, Caldwell is one of the most valuable men on the team, and his absence with the others on the hospital list was deeply felt last week. Harvard, whieh showed a weak rush line attack in the game twith Holy Cross, will work hard on that type of play in preparation for the game with Dartmouth, The Crimson goal line defense was as well per- fected as could be desired. Pennsylvania came out of the Co- lumbia game in good shape and goes into practiee today to work up some tricks for Center college. Washington and Jéfferson, after its victory over | Carnegie Tech, will start getting ready for the University of Detroit. Yale suffered more severely than any other college, perhaps, with the leas of Charley O'Hearn, star half- back, who is out for the rest of the season with a broken leg. His only thought mow Is to recover before the hockey season gets under way. The Blue coaches have their work cut out for them, to develop a reliable drop kicker and pnter before the Brown game next Saturday. Stevens, half- back, is conmsidered the most logical choice, although Widdy Neale has :an: doing some good work with his | toe | {Rovers Win 13 to 0 in Clash Against Crimsons | The Rovers of this city went over to Plainville yesterday and took the (score of 18 to 0.

The Maroon star has scored eleven touchdowns to date for a total of 66 points. Second to Tryon is Chet Bowman, the Syracuse flash, who has rolled up 50 points by virtue of seven touchdowns and cight goals after touchdown. i Homer Hazel of Rutgers is third with 46 points, the result of five touchdowns, nine goals after touch- down and two goals from field. Harry Wilson of Penn State, who startled thousands with his remarkable run- ning against Navy, moved up into fourth place as a result of the three touchdowns gained last Saturday. He of 42 points. Sundstrom of Corneéll is succeeding to “Swede” Hanson's place as the pre- mier placement kicker. 8o far he has bhooted 20 goals over the bar for the seventh point.

Louis Cardinals. Hornsby led with .385 and was followed by Wheat of the Brookiyns with .375. In the Ameri- can league the honor went to Harry Heilmann of the Detroits. The Ty- ger outfielder hit .402 for the season just ended, and was trailed by Ruth the Babe with .394. Incidentally both Hornsby and Heilmann led their respective leagues at the bat two years ago. It was the first time in years that right- handers had carried off the hitting honors in the majors. The fact that the two were able to repeat again this year is further proof that a left-handed swing is not es- gential to hitting success. 2/c HANDY - PACK When a Feller Needsa Friend contmis tonsem for at Least One Year §t.

His all around playing abil- ity and heavy batting precluded his remaining a pitcher and he was sta- tioned at first base, where he earned the honor of being one of the greatest initial cushion guardians in the hise tory of the game. Jn 1922 Sisler tied the high batting record of the American league, which was set by Ty Cobb of the Detroit Tygers, when he hung up an average of .420, Fengler Speeds to \—’ictory In Kansas City Contests Kansas City, Oct. 22. —— Harlan Fengler won the 260 mile national championship motor race on the Kan- sas City speedway here yesterday art- ernoon.
