There is so many regular players on
the Harvard football team injured that
the practice yesterday consisted mainly
of stibs.
The Princeton College fxit ball tiam
yesterday telegraphed for more veteran
coaches to help get the team in shape.
All of Cornell's foot ball players are in
good condition, with the exception of
Quarter-back Young, whose blood is out
of order caused by the dye out of his
jersey.
The*Pennsylvania team, with only five
regulars on it, took one hour's signal
practice in all the rain, on Franklin Field
yesterday.
At Princeton College yesterday they
put a left-footed kicker on the scrub
team to give the 'Varsity some practice
in breaking up that kind of a kick.
There has been so much talk over the
decision made by Referee Gould in the
Yale-Carlisle game of Saturday, in New
York, that Mr. Gould has made a state
ment that he was right, and that the um
pire was at fault, as he should have given
the ball to the Indians because the Yale
end made an off-side play. The decision
given robbed the Indians out of a touch
down.
Billy Garrison, grandson of the great
abolitionist, will take "Dug" Cochrane's
place as quarter-back on the Harvard
foot ball team.
It is not likely that Yale will play foot
ball in New York again. They say the
soil on the Polo grounds is too soft for
fast play, and the crowd kept up such a
din that they could not hear their sig
nals. The Indians heard their's all
right. The yells didn't come right for
the Yale team.
Brinton is a tower of strength at

Quarter-back Garrett of the Warren

Manager Lewis T. Greaves of the Up
land Football team went to Wilmington
Monday and made an effort to arrange
game with the Warren A. A. eleven for
Saturday next. Manager Greaves made
the Warren an offer of 850 to come to
Chester and Upland would give them
return game at the same figures on a date
to lx- selected by the Warren. The Wil-1
mingtons declined the offer and refused
to arrange dates. They evidently fear,
Upland's superior ability and are afraid
to go up against a team that knows the
game. Tom News will play with Upland
next Saturday. No game has yet been
arranged for that date, the game with
Westchester having been cancelled.—

In reply to the above article A. W.
Solak, manager of the Warren, makes
the following statement. It is true that
Mr. Greeves, manager of the Uplhnd
foot ball team was in Wilmington to
arrange a game with the Warren. It is
also true that Mr. Greaves offered a
guarantee of $50 and a return game here
for the same guarantee. The terms are
satisfactory to the Warren, but what
guarantee have they that they will get a
game in return? The .Warren is afraid
of no team. The stronger the team is
the more anxious Mr. Selak is to' get a
game with them. He does not believe
that the Upland manager is acting in
good faith. He insists that the Warren
play the first game in Upland. The
Warren is having the same trouble with
West Chester.
Mr. Selak makes this proposition and
it applies to both Upland and West
Chester: "We will play at either or both
places provided they give a guarantee of
825.00, and put up a forfeit of 850.00 that
they arc acting in good faith and will
give us a return game.
"It will not pay us to go to cither
place unless they give us a return game,
buc we will play if we are assured that
they will come here."
The proposal to do away with the rule
counting two points for a goal from
touch-down has caused a great deal of
public comment. It has been claimed
by many that it furnishes a means of
scoring points that shows no skill worthy
of mention, add very often the result of
a game is decided by the kicking of a
goal when the team that wins by these
means is far the more inferior of the
two. People in favor of the rule claim
that by these means games arc very
often decided by kicking the goal when
art ' 80 vor - v even ly matched, and
that nothing appertaining to the general

writer thinks that there will not be any
