The soreness of the players, the con? tinued host, and the fact that n game Is scheduled for to-morrow with Wil? liam and Mary College, kept Virginia's football squad from engaging In any scrimmage to-day. Three elevens were, put through spirited signal pructice, and the men returned to tho gym? nasium half an hour earlier than usual. Coach Vanccy stated to-night that i.iK ltne-up to-morrow would be prac? tically the same as In last Saturday's; contest, with the exception that Good-j hue would replace Hulf Huck Jones,: who sustained a fracture of the shoul? der early In the Week. Parrel 1, tho' most promising candidate for full- ; batik, hud hi.* nose broken yesterday, but whs buck In harness to-day, pre-; pared to engage In scrimmage. He I will play to-morrow. Lurman, a line] candidate, lind Iiis collarbone broken, yesterday, and will 'be out of the gome j for the resi of the season. The first team lias as yet been given but five plays, but hopes to make a better showing against William and M rv tlur. <lbl last year's eleven, j Which coul<| register only two touch-i downs. A promising addition to the squad to-day was Cook, who matriculated | yesterday in the college department;] j I attended Andover last session, where he played 1,1 the backfleld. He was early on the Held lo-duy, and gave the best exhibition of drop kicking seen here in recent years. He landed a number of goals from the forty yard line with spparanl ease.

The squad, which has been greatly i strengthene,] m the last two days by ; the appearance of Cocke und McClung, I has been working very plucklly. Cocke! is a backfleld man. who played for! some time In Charleston, W. Va., at this, position. He is exceedingly fast and' full of fight, and although he lias only , attended three evAninga of practice,! he has been playing tine ball on the Beruh team.

A long- period whs t .ken up In line bucking, in which Coach Cecil's knowl? edge Is unsurpassed. During the four years of his service at Virginia he encountered every kind of man with nil kinds of tricks, and it is this knowledge gained through experience which he Is Imparting to his men. and which will count a great deal In the race for the cup. He then coached his ends on going down bn kicks. A twenty-live minute scrimmage, thoe closed the evening's practice. RETURN 10 GAME PI iladelphia, Pa..

Pertinent Comment BY GUS MALBERT It was a cull day in baseball- yes? terday. Itain interfered with sevcrnl of the scheduled events, and the Giants and Cubs, around whom the greatest Interest centres, wert- not un the cards. They will do a double act this afternoon, and the Giants will havo to grub both tu regain their - lost honors. Governor Dlx is tired of the new bo.xing law in New York, and tie is using his efforts to have it revoked. Somehow or other the men manipulat? ing me game in the big city don't seem to be able 10 tote fair lung enough to give ttie real teiiuws u cnaitue. Richmond College will make its first appearance for 1911 on the grid? iron tuts atlernoon, when the col? legians mix it with the Maryland ag? ricultural College.

The tickets go un sale Monday morn ?' lng at 'J o'clock at 821 East Main j Street. It Ik believed that the supply ; will be exhu'usted In a very few days. The Olymplus and the Barton , Heights elevens will get together this I ufternoon In Barton Heights, while the ; All-Preps will have a game, at Byrd i Park with the Medicos. Everybody is getting In line for the I bowling meeting to be held Monday j night at Murphy's Hotel. It looks now I that there will be a numbor of women I on hand to form a women's league. The more the merrier, and the fair I sex might have it salutary effect un I the sterner attendants. No meeting of the Virginia League will be helil until November C, the date set at the previous meeting. It might have been well to call the meet? ing earlier, so that all of the business transacted could have been completed, but Williams probably knows what he Is doing. Now that the work of th- rules com? mittee has been completed, it might not be a bad Idea for the amateur baneball enthusiast^ to get together and start doing things. The date on which applications must be lu the hand of Secretarv Hopper Is October 15. He will likely call a meeting immediately after that date.
