'Varsity Went Right Through Re- serves at First, but Latter Braced Up-Mention of Some of the Good Plays. The football practice is showing steady improvement' every day, al- though there is of course room for a good deal more. - Particular attention has been paid to the work of the backs this week, and they are gradually com- ing together according to the notions of Captain Henninger and Coach Mc- Cauley. The 'Varsity lined up as follows in yesterday's practice: Center, Carr; guards, Henninger and Raikes; tackles, Yont and Villa; ends, Hutchin- son and Tryon; quarter-back, Holmes; half-backs, Richards, Gates and Hol- lister; full-back, LeRoy and Blooming- ston. Myers again appeared as center on the Reserves. There were two new men in the Reserves' line also who at- tracted considerable attention They are brothers by the name of Johnson and have entered the literary depart- nent from Iowa. They both stand about six feet and two inches in height and weigh about 200 pounds. One is trying for guard and the other for tackle, which positions they played last year at Geneva College, Pennsyl- vania. Perhaps the most prominent feature of yesterday's practice was Hollister's long end runs, which the crowd ap- plauded heartily. He started off with one of them and thus enabled the 'Varsity to make its first touchdown in less than a minute. The other two touchdowns came harder. Holmes is showing good improve- mentat passing the ball back and is getting into the 'interference better. Villa and Yont are both running well with the ball. On the Reserves Palmer's good tack-' hng was a feature McKenzie also did some good punting when the line was broketi up. Greenleaf played a hard game at end. Myers and the Johnson brothers were added to the list at the training table yesterday. Schedule For Reserves. A regular schedule is being trade out for the Reserves, just as for the 'varsity. Two games have already been secured, one with the Normal School eleven Saturday, October 12, and the other with the Michigan Mil- itary Academy eleven at Pontiac or Orchard Lake. These have been defi- nitely secured, and Manager Baird is arranging for others. CHICAGO'S ELEVEN. An Observer of the Practice Writes of the Men. The football team of the Univer- sity of Chicago has been in training ever since August 25. Candidates for the team are given daily practice on Marshall Field from 4 to G. The ragged points in the team have been carefully watched by the coach- ers during the practice games with. different Chicago high schools and when they lined up against the star aggregation from the Chicago Athletic Club last Saturday the only noticeable weak spot was full back, which Carr Neel, the tennis champion, endeavored to fill but failed, The Athletic Club suffered defeat by a score of S to 0- two touchdowns-Neel failing to kick the goal. Phil. Allen, the famous Williams player, is taking post graduate work and will play center. He is said to be the superior of any man in the West with the exception of Stevenson of the C. A. C. "Old War Horse' Allen will captain the team and play right guard, which position he has filled for several years. There are seveal promising candi- dates for left guard, but this far Ruhil- koetter seems to have the best of it. Flint will play left tackle and Wil- liamson, the new man from Ohio, has ALUMNI WILLBE HERE. CHICAGO AND DETROIT ALUMNI AT MASS MEETING. Messrs. Hawley and Bates Have Promised to Come-Meeting Be- gins at Eight in University Hail -Football the Subject. Football Manager Charles .Baird re- ceived the following telegram last night in response to his request that the Chicago branch of the Alumni Association be represented by some speakers at the mass meeting tonight: "Samuel Hawley and I will be on hand tomorrow night. "HARRY M. BATES." At least one, and if possible two or three porominent alumni from Detroit will also be here to address the meet- ing. Frederick Stearns is not in De- troit at present, but George P. Codd, C. T. Wilkins and othersl have been wired to come. The gallery of University 33ail will he closed and the crowd located on the lower floor, unless, as is hoped, it should happen that there are too many for the"lower ball to hold. Prof. J. C. Knowlton will preside at the meeting, and besides the speakers from outside, Charles Baird, E. C. Shields, W. L. McCauley and others will also address the meeting. This will be the first occasion this year to call all the University together, shown up splendidly for the other side, and in view of the comingi Harvat d his work in Saturday's gaine being game it is expected That all will be very brilliant. Gale and Roby will there. occupy the ends. Both might be im- proved upon. At the beginning of the season con- siderable anxiety was felt about the possibility of securing a quarter-back, but Henry Clarke, the famous pitcher and all-around ball player, has shown up so well in practice that he is re- garded as a fixture. He passes the ball quickly and is a heady player. For halves Chicago has two of the best in the West, Nichols and Ewing, both all-around athletes, who know the game. The only weak position is full back, which has not been filled so far, and if better candidates do not appear Chi- cago may secure Brown of the Ath- letic Club, who filled the position so well for Cornell. Among the promising substitutes are Pike, Bowers and Winston. E; L. Butterworth has had charge of the team during Prof. Stagg's illness. The team will play several of the western colleges and then go East, finishing the season at Chicago on Thanksgiving Day, with Michigan as an opponent. The Palladium board held its first meeting since vacation at the Psi U house yesterday. STRONG SCHOOL TEAM Is the Michigan Military Acadermy Eleven. The 'Varsity eleven will again begin the season with tloe Michigan Military Academy team tomorrow. In the first game last year the Orchard Lake boys, through several flukes, held the 'Var- sity to a tie, 12-12, and were defeated two weeks later by a score of 40-4. It is not expected that the season will start out in any such way Os it did last year, however as the mienore in vast- ly different shape now from that at the start last year. The Michigan iilitary Academy his been putting out strong teams for sev- eral years. They are coached by Yale men on the faculty of the academy. Last year they won the scholastic championship= of the West by defeat- ing Shattuck's Institute of 'Minnesotfa at Chicago. This year a Western In- terscholastic Football Association is planned, composed of the Michigan MIilltary Academy, Stattuck's Institute and St. John's Milita t Wisconsin.
