Coach Eustis Believes in Keeping Squad Busy All the Time Monday is no longer a day of rest for the New Vork I'niversity footbaJl team. LMck Evatifl, coach of the Violet eleven, believes that the lay off between the game on Saturday and practice hour on Moaday is suffieicnt. To be sure, he does not believe in scrimnaging hard. and yesterd.y afternoon the squad romped through a light formation and signal drill, caught punts and took a few turns out of the tackling and blocking dummy. It will be a case of diving into the atlffaat work of the season to-day, however, for Wesleyan is to hfl ' eoni tered on Saturday, and Euatia hte hia heart set on a victory.

Miller, Star on Gridiron, Lost to Columbia Team Physician Advises Coach to Abandon Hope of Using Quarterback Howard Miller, atar of the Columbia "taraity IB 1915, is lost to the team this y.ar. This announcement wns made yesterday arternoon hy Hr. Frank Ost ler, the physician who had charge of thc Hlue and White t-nma in thfl dav ot Hnrold Weekes. Bill Morioy, Jaea Wright and those other stars whose fame will endure through all time at Columbia. Dr. Ostler examired Miller's knee yesterday afternoon, anrl al onflfl ad Viaad NelflOB Metealf, the head coach, to abandon hope ct using the jla.er this sea.on. There i? some faitit hope that Miller may be able tn play in the -? game, perhaps. but he certainly will not be in before then. The announcement of Dr. Ostler was not altogether in the nature of a sur prise, but it CTBflhfld the hope of 'he Itudent body ju.t the same. With Mil? ler in the baekneld the efficiency of the Columbia team would be Juat about (ioubled. Hc was a great dron kicker. and no team was safe when ne could shoot at the goal posts from any range inside forty yards. K Real Quarterback. Put it was not only as a kieker that Miller was of v..lue to his team. He ?;n a real quarterback, poaaosflfld of real football sense. and a wonder in finding the weak spots in an opposing team. He was a natural tactician, and had the knack of using the right play at the right time. With Miller no longer to be eounted upon, the coaching stAff will plunge into the task of developing a man tfl take his place. Raimondo. who played auar terhack against Vermont, showed some promiie, and he will receive every at? tention. Rosen is another boy who will get tho attentii n of the coaches. He spent much time at drop kicking yee? terday, and did well. Tom Thorp, for? rner All America tackle, expresaed the opinion that Rosen would develop into | a star kicker. I.ight work was the order of the day. The team race.l through a signal drill aml ran on* some of the formations that will be used against I'nion on Saturday. t'olumbia expects no picnic wth the Scheneetady team, which, reports to the contrary, has shown a drive and snap ro its work which must at least be re spected. Nelson Metealf i.s not the sort that gives out lugubriOttfl stories, and when he declared that he looked for a stiff fight from the (iarnet hfl spoke with an air of conviction. The Btodent body. however, banks on the ability of the team to down I'n.o::, and Ifl planning a rollicking snake dance when the game is over. Hard Work in Order. The business of senmmaging will be taken up to-day. and to-morrow and Thursday will t:nd work of the harde<t in order. It is felt that the baekneld must. develop greater power if the line of I'nion is to be erossfld. A task of more than ordinary difficulty c nfronts the coaches, for Monroe and Cochran. *wo of tho firat string backs, were used up in tbe gani" with Vermont. Monroe, it was announced, is no* 80 hadly injured ns was first believed, but. hi* ankle is lihely to bother him for a ?veek or more an.l gn a'ly r.-'ard hia .peed. Cochran ls Bursing ? bruisc ! leg, but expects to start against Cnion. Columbia showed remarkable ability with the forward pass against Vermont, and it is probable that the same play will be used in many of its varying foims against I'nion. This wns indi eated yesterday, when the team un icrked about tifty-seven Varifltiefl of the pass. While the 'varsity wa l rompmg around the freshmen and seniors hooked up in an InterdaSfl struggle, and the fourth year men won by a score of 1. to 9.

Coach Rodgers put the men through the hardest kind of scrimmage in an effort to overcome the weaknesses that showed up Saturday against Middle? bury. Tho lme particularly came in for a Btiff workout Brett, tl 8 I g freshman who sub ;-rr| at guard in Saturday's game, was tried out at that position again, as the coach is particularly anxious to add weight and power to the line. lf Stevena can only bolater the central positions Rodgers will be .atistied, as Hopkins and Bruun have proved that they can care tor the ends. Harter, tbe Vonkers High School boy. vas sent m to-rtay Bt quarter and considerable improvemeat was noted Musk played b weak game at that po.si tion Saturday, besides costing his team severai penalties hy starting ahead of the bail. Goodale, who has been out ? the Haverford game, a week ago. got into uniform yesterday and arill probably start again.-t Worcester on Saturday. His return should considerably strength. n thc attack, as he is a good punter ard hits a lme walL His play? ing at fullback will aiso allow Marshall to go back tO his old place ut half, when he can be used to good ad vantage in baeking tha line. While- thfl StflVflna team came thmugfa Saturday's game unscathe.l. Rodgers intenda to have a big squad ? .?. a ready, and the slight est sign of weakenlng in the line will eosl the guilty man his position. Five teams were on the tield yesterday.
