New York, Sept 16. Cornell faces
the problem of discounting the ab
sence from ita eleven of such stars as
Charles Barrett, quarterback: Gib
Cool, center; Ray Shelton, end; Jame
son, tackle, and Collins, halfback. The
players, as all who follow foot ball
know, contributed very largely to the
success of the Red and White last
season, and Dr.x Sharpe, the coach,
will not easily fill their placet. How
ever, the-Ithacan gridiron mentor has
shown his ability to develop players,
and considering the fact of a large
squad aa an asset in his favor hope
may be entertained that by the time
of the Harvard game the outfit from
Cornell will be extremely formidable.
" Brown appears aa the likeliest can
didate to fill Cool's place in the piv
otal position, ne has served as un
derstudy to the regular center rush
for two years, and as a consequence
may be regarded as well grounded in
the game. Brown is a heavier man
than Cool and hardly comes up to the
modern demanda of the position,
which are speed and shiftiness. He is
steady, though, and a sure f passer,
which are elements in a center by no
means to be despised. Shelton s place
at end will be well filled by Zander,
a westerner, who has acted aa sub
stitute for Shelton in the last two
years. He is light, but fast, and a
sure tackier: he played in practically
all of Cornell's games last year, Eck-
ley at tne other extremity stepped
into the shoes of the great O'eHearne
last season and left little or nothing
to De desired. :
Wings Lack Nothing.
It la therefore assured that Cor
nell's wings will lack ic." nothing thia
year. Ryerson and Ensworth, who
nave had freshmen experience, are
counted upon as the leading substi
tutes for the end nositions. The reaii
lar guards. Miller and Anderson, re
main. Miller weighs over ZUO pounds
and besides attending efficiently to
hia dutiea at the side of center he is
relied upon to kick off. He is a first
class man in every particular. So is
his running mate, Anderson, a player
not to rugged as Miller, but full of
fire and energy, Bard, a substitute
last year; Butrey from the freshmen
team, and Niles. Masson and Nelmi,
are the leading substitutes. Gillies
will remain at tackle. Weighing over
190 pounda he combines power and
brawn' both on defer :e and offense.
He ia a thoroughly competent man
and haa already terved two seasons
aa a regular tackle. The firat game
on the schedule, with Oberlin on Sep
tember 30, haa been cancelled, aa col
lege does not open this year till Oc
tober 9.
Shiverick will nlav duarterback end
he il an asset whom any coach might
envy. He runa well with the ball, he
is heady, he can drop-kick, and he can
throw the forward pass. Above all,
he ia a punter par excellence. It is
no exaggeration to say that Cornell's
victory over Harvard last year waa
due more than anything else to the
marvelous nuntinc nf Shivrirlr
against the wind. If he does not fill
the snoes of Barrett, it will be be
cause Barrett occupied, with Mahan,
of Harvard, a lonely position at the
head of all backs. Jueller, the captain
of the team, will hold down the full
back position acceptably; he has done
e. in tuc past, ano ia Digger and
stronger than ever this year. He is a
line plunger and defensive player of
merit.
Freahle Looks Oood.
Benedict who is looked unon aa the
man to win one of the halfback posi
tions, comes from last year's freshman
team, where his work caught the eye
of Al Sharpe. Hoffman was a varsity
substitute at half last season, and he
should win a regular berth this year.
He haa the right build for a halfback
of the rugged type he weighs 185
pounos ano is a awitt, elusive runner.
Substitute backs will be drawn almost
without exception from the freshman
eleven. They are Carr, Niedering
house, Inscho, Rechrs, Van Horn,
Mayer. Caminez and ifepp. Of the
lot, Cheminez, Mayer and Zepp are
supposed to be the more promising.
The forecast of the eleven at thia lima
calls for a heavy," rugged outfit, a
strong, resourceiui line, and a back-
neid with at least iwo anml mn
There ia no reason tn rlmihr thor the
Cornell team will be worthy to bear

New York, Sept 16. Practically

situation this yesr. Percy Haughton
will not be able to give very much
time to the foot ball aquad because
of his interest in the Braves. In ad

Cowen, the guard: Wallace, center,
and Oilman and Parsons, both
tackles.
The entire backfietd was swept

irst string men who played againat
Yale have gone. With the loss
Haugton at Harvard and the gain
Jones at Yale, it looka like an even

New York, Sept 23. -When Connie
Mack dismantled his old pennant
winning machine he estimated that it
would take him two years to assem
ble another, vehicle for his peculiar
geniua. '" ..
"For two years," he predicted, "the
boys will probably have a lot of fun
at my expense, but by 1917 I'll ' be
ready to make a bid for another pen
nant, and the team with which I'll do
it will not have cost me as much as
other managers are accustomed to
paying for a aingle atar busher."
As the cadaverous Connie anticipat
ed, the Athletica have been the
laughing stock of their league through
the greater part of two seasons. Now,
however, the tide is turning the other
way, and it is becoming more and
more apparent that the lean tactician's
experiment, an experiment no other ,
manager in either major leagues
would have dared to tackle, Is to be
crowned with complete success. At
least two rival leaders are already
conceding to Mack a first division
rating for next year, with an outside
chance to win a championship.
Most of the parts that will so into
the making of the new Mackian ma
chine have already been installed. The
three that are needed to complete the
layout are still in the minors, but one
of them haa already been subjected
to the major league test and found
not altogether wanting, and the oth
ers are listed among the brightest
prospects of the year. They are ex
pected to join the Mackmen within
the next two weeks, and will im
mediately be assigned to the stations
they are Slated to cover next season,
Conr.cehce in Bodie.
These three, upon whom Mack la
banking so heavily, are Outfielder

association, and Third Baseman Bates.
