FOOTBALL SQUAD FAST SETTLING
DOWN TO INTELLIGENT PRACTICE

ian.—lt 1. Relieved That a Team
Can Re AVhinped Into Practice
That Will lie Fully Able to Cope
With tile Old Enemy—Hack Field
Looking Better.
At last night's football practice the
big unwieldy squad was whipped into
something like system, with positions
clearly defined to those who are com
peting, and the coaches gained a clear
idea of just what the team promises.
All of the practices held so far have
been for the purpose of testing the
primary fitness of each candidate, and
in the selection of the coaches the less
promising material has been weeded
cut until only the men who are really
considered as eligible are given that
hard work which will be necessary be
fore the team is in fit condition to
compete with a long trained college
team.
Fewer changes were made In the
practice line ups last night. This,
however, does not indicate that only
those who were worked most are the
only ones being considered. It is not
the wish of the coaches that any of
the candidates should be discouraged
yet, and every man will be given a
showing.
Want lr. Barrow at Quarter.
Since the announcement has been
made here that Charleston is making
every effort to get a team with which
to defeat Savannah, special effort is
being made to get some of the old
time stars to go back in the game.
Chief among those who are being im
portuned is Dr. Craig Barrow, who is
largely responsible for past victories of
the blue and white. Dr. Barrow is
being importuned to play quarter, a
position which present circumstances
makes most annoying to the manage
ment of the team. There is plenty of
good men available for the position,
hut none of them have ever run a
team during a hard contest, and it is
the general idea to get a man at quar
ter who can in every way fill Capt.
Cope's place, if possible.
So far Dr. Barroiv has declined to
consent to taking the place, as in case
of injury, his professional practice
might suffer. It is believed, however,
that he may he persuaded to help the
team out in the hard Charleston game
on New Year’s.
Lille Retting Into Shape.
The forwards are rapidly getting
into shape. There is a superabund
ance of material for the line positions
and it is believed that the forefront
presented to opposing elevens this sea
son will be as impregnable as was
that of last year.
In the back field there is great im
provement. Mitchell. Sullivan, Art
ley, Johnson, Colquitt, Mclntire and
Hymes are all showing up wonderfully
well.
Manager Mclntire stated last night
that he believed that the game with
the University of Florida would he
a much harder one than was antici
pated here, and believes the team will
be lucky to win.

HOW CARLISLE INDIANS
FARE IN TRAINING.
Not Limited lo Diet of Raw Beet
and Gunpowder.
The training table for the Carlisle
Indian football team is amply sup
plied with all the delicacies good
markets afford. Their meals, which
are cooked by half a dozen Indian
girls and served by Indian boys, are
timed as follows:
Breakfast at 6:30 a. m„ lunch at
noon promptly and dinner at 6 p. m.
Miss Ferree of the Indian school
corps of teachers has provided such a
hill of fare for the red-skinned war
riors of the checker board that they
pick up flesh and muscle at the same
time; unlike the ordinary collegians
who have to convert fat into harden
ed muscle tissue. A sample bill of
fare for the Indians would be:
Morning Meal —Wheat biscuits and
cream, fruit, broiled steak, scrambled
eggs, creamed potatoes, coffee, toast,
bread and butter.
Lunch—Celery soup and toast, mash
ed potatoes, peas, corn bread, roast
beef, cabbage, salad, pickles, milk
and grapes.
Dinner —Tea, bread and butter,
broiled steak, sweet and baked pota
toes, tomatoes, pickles, tapioca pud
ding.
This training table takes the place
of the regular cooking school at the
institution and the corps of chefs and
cooks is chunged every two weeks.
Although the allowance of beef per
man is three pounds a day, the foot
ball boys have but a pound and a half
a day. Simple recipes are used. The
table etiquette of the aborigines is very
good, especially so when occasionally
they are waited upon by girls in the
school’s senior class. The small reci
pes of the cook book are multiplied by
eight or ten times to satisfy the forty
members of the football squad, with
a few guests who visit the table.
YALE ELEVEN QUIT,
SAYS COLLEGE PAPER.
OHlclnl Organ Declare* Team Played
Weakly Against Syracuse.
New Haven, Conn., Oct. 20.—N0
Yale football eleven has ever been ac
cused of being a team of quitters by
the Yale Daily News, the official uni
versity organ, till to-day. In Its lead
ing editorial the News says of the
Yale team in the Syracuse game Sat
urday;
“Never before has an aggregation of
players, temporary or permanent, rep
resenting Yale, so palpably quit. On
Saturday the Yale players In the sec
ond half played without spirit. They
seemed to take the attitude that as
the game was virtually won, there was
no need for them to exert themselves.
Coachs flocked to the rescue of the
eleven to-day. There were nine pres
ent: Head Coach Walter Camp, Raf
ferty, Goss, Metcalf, Phil Stillman,
Hinkey, Butterworth, Glass and
Mitchell. The team was slammed for
two hours on a sultry day through the
fiercest football it has had this year.
For an hour a driving drill in the
rudiments of play was ordered. Tack

kind in two weeks, was done.
be fired when Pennsylvania and Co
lumbia meet at Philadelphia. These
two elevens are not considered serious
contenders for the championship this
year. Last year the blue and white
of Columbia was feared after the
walloping given to the Quakers. That
Pennsylvania will win is looked on as
a certainty, the question being by
what score.
Princeton will have easy going with
Lehigh and Yale should easily dispose
of West Point. Harvard haß a propo
sition in the Indiuns, according to
the present standing of the team. The
red men are said to be faster this
year than ever before, and have made
the record score so far.
In the Southern field the Tech-Au
burn game and the Georgia-Clemson
game will hold the interest In this
section. Georgia is picked a sure win
ner against Clemson, but there is a
question as to Tech’s ability to over
come the Alabamians. Although the
showing made by Tech against the
Florida State College was the best
of the three games between Florida
and Georgia. Auburn and Tech, the
coaches on the Florida team pick Au
burn as the strongest eleven.

NO ACTIVE STEP I
FOR BOWLING YET.
No active steps towards the forma
tion of the city bowling league has yet
been taken.
Mr. C. 8. Richmond, one of the most
enthusiastic bowlers in the city, said
yesterday that the contemplated state
league had not yet materialized. In
fact, he has only heard from one city.
Mr. Richmond says he believes the
city league will be formed some time
about the first cf November.
All lovers of the game are now prac
ticing, however, and when the sea
son does open, it Is anticipated that
large scores will be the common thing.
GIANTS WILL PLAY
AMERICANS IN SPRING.
President Hrusli Hays He Is Willing

the next few months —he is a full
(Hedged flagman on a first-class
freight train, with free privilege to
ride in the rear coach and talk famil
iarly with the modern railway Czar,
the conductor. His duties will be
light. The run to Thomasville, made
as often during the week as possible,
is just a little over a day’s run and all
Mull will have to do is to shoo timid
cows from the track and back up the
rear of the train in event of some
passenger train trying to make a
home run without proper signals from
the captain.
"I believe this job Is right for me,”
said Mull, as he trimmed the wick to
the red lights. Giving signals is one
of my strong points, and I believe I
will learn to make a run by myself
before long. All I need is a little
coaching. Tell all the boys good-bye
for me.”

championship next year, provided the
"seven” clubs of the National League
that finish lower than the first de
sire its pennant winner to engage in
a contest for “supposedly” high hon
ors.
Mr. Brush also says he will allow
the Giants to play the Boston Ameri
can League club next spring prior to
the opening of the championship of
1905, provided legislation can be ef
fected whereby the games will be
conducted under the same stringent
rules that now govern the champion
ship games of both leagues.
SPORTING NOTES
The Pittsburg Press says that Roger
Bresnahan Is the most non-sensical
kicker in the National League.
Joe Kelley does not think his being
suspended so often cost the Reds sec
ond place in the pennant race. He
says Steinfeldt’s long lay-off did it.
Guesses have been in order as to the
identity of the two men—both Ameri
can Leaguers—for whom Garry Herr
mann is willing to pay $25,000. They
are Freddy Parent of the Bostons, and
W. J. Bradley of the Clevelands.
Ritter of Brooklyn is one of the best
base-stealing catchers in the National
League. So far this year he has
stolen sixteen sacks.
Jack (Twin) Sullivan, who was re
cently defeated by Kid McCoy in Los
Angeles, is back in Boston, and is try
ing to convince his friends that he
was robbed of the decision. He says
he was stronger than McCoy at the
finish.
Terry McGovern has nothing in
sight in the way of a bout for the next
two weeks, and will go on the road
with bis theatrical company.
Preparations are already under way
l’or the annual six-day race, which will
begin in Madison Square Garden on
Dec. 5. Bicyclists who intend to take
part in the long grind have been train
ing for several weeks and the indica
tions are that the physical condition
of the competitors will be better than
ever before.
Fred Douglass of Savannah, who
holds the title of the welterweight
champion of the South, and is at pres
ent training for his coming encounter
with Jack Bennett of McKeesport, Pa.,
which takes place before the Physical
Culture Club of Reading, Pa., on Mon
day night, is in perfect condition, and
says that if he defeats Bennett he will
at once go after Joe Grim.
Jack Root is matched to meet Jim
Flynn before the Denver Athletic Club
during the latter part of November.
The day when the battle will take
place will be given later.
Jimmy Britt, the featherweight
champion, who Is matched to meet Joe
Gans, the lightweight champion, will
go into active training under the di
rection of Snider Kelly. The contest
will be for twenty rounds in San Fran
cisco on Oct. 31.

BROTHERS AND SON KISS
ALLEGED WIFE MURDERER.
Not Sufficient Number of Jurors for
Mayor McCuc's Trial.
Charlottesville, Va., Oct. 20. —The
trial of ex-Mayor J. Samuel McCue,
charged with the murder of his wife,
was resumed in the Corporation Court
here to-day, the court room being
filled.
When the defendant came Into court
his two brothers and a son kissed
him. The examination of the tales
men of the second venire of fifty men,

an effort to complete the Jury.
Only three of the venire of fifty from
Richmond were accepted, A. E. Hein

lor, making a total of twelve who have
qualified.
Forty-three were rejected because of

the court ordered the city sergeant to
secure a third venire.

being excused until Monday morning.
The court to-day withheld the name
