Colgate HAMILTON. N. Y.. Oct. 7.—Col- gate this season faces the hard task of following up e winning football campaign with another Just as good. In 1925 Colgate was one of the few” clevcne to go through the entire chase without meeting defeat. I“. trimmed Syracuse and Princeton. among others. and played ties with Lafayette end Brown. This year’s prospectsflren't quite so rosy. for the sensational Eddie Tryon won't roam the Colgate fields again and'“s'everel other stars of a year ago have grad- uated. Still. the material is plen- tiful. and it wouldn't be‘asurprising were the Hamiltonians as formidable as in 1925. . Nicholas Mahler will captain the 1926 aggregation. Mahler. like many other leaders this fall. plays quar- terback. He's a brainy fellow, feet and a clever ball carrier. On defense Mahler is a sure catcher ofstwietlng punts and when he tackle! a runner there's no den. ger or the hell-teter setting away. Mahler slrflly tosses them and they stay tossed. __._____._._~—.—-— A cargo of bees. some 18.000.000 in number. believed to be the first consignment. of its kind, in transit from Porto nice to Dayton. 0.. was handled recently without a single person getting stung. , m GUARDS m wanton. w uslgnuic Three New Players Tryout For Westport Five — Open Season Soon. 1 The Compo Life Guard basketball team held their first practice of the season lest night at the Westpert Y. M. C. A. Seven players were present for the practice session. They were Eddie and Harry Quinn. Devo Ceri- son. Ken Scofieid. Jack Beuttle and Hugh Beettle. Th. two Beettiee will probebly be carried on the squad for the season. Jack Bealtie played in several games with the Life Guards last year as forward and showed promises of developing into a first class player. Hugh Rcetiie although he has not performed in big time basketball starred with the Staples High school quintet and looks promising. Russell Smith who played with the Norwaik Red Mcn two years ago and with the Life Guards at the beginning of the season last year will also be carried on the Life Guard schad. The team will hold practices on every Wed- nesday and Friday evenings. Manager Don Taylor is opposed to the idea of bringing in outside players and believes in giving the home talent a fair chance. There is no doubt but what these youngsters will make good in big time basket- ball with some coaching. kosmf'sl’ns lN_l’_ltACTlCE Postponing the second scrimmage of the week until this afternoon.

Nat Michacls. meet promising of the Cub tackles. sus- tained a broken collar bone in the scrimmage. Michaela will be lost to the yearlings for the grcuicr part of the season. lie was a former Erasmus Hall star and one of thc most promising players on the squad. Charley Roselle. rcgulnr varsity back last season. was the outstand- ing star in the scrimmage. Although he is being used as eccoud string material this your ltoscllo is making a strong bid to regain his \arsity berth. West Virginie Wesleyan will come to New Kerk with e powerful team. drilled in a flashy. deceptive type of attack.
