Oct. 31.—Football at Lafayette was handed a knockout blow yesterday when orders were received here transferring; Coach Benfer, Manager Mitinger and eight members of the football squad, four of whom are Varsity players, to stations elsewhere than this college. These losses, coming on top of the long list of cripples which resulted from Saturday's game with Muhlenberg and the hard scrimmages earlier in the week, have completely wrecked the Varsity team, and mean that a team virtually made up of second and third string men will face Penn on Franklin Field on Saturday. Everyone is stunned by these losses. Yesterday afternoon the coaches turned resolutely to the task of building up a new eleven with which to finish the schedule of the season. There was no scrim mage, it being necessary to famil iarize the new men with the plays and signals to be used on Satur day.

Hoppe yester day defeated George Slosson, former champion, at Boston, in the first of a series of exhibition matches for the benefit of the Red Cross, scoring 800 points to Slosson's 271; 18.2 balkline. And yet Hoppe refuses to defend his .itle against Welker Cochran, the Chicago wonder, unless a side bet is arranged of $2,500. This appears to the sporting fra ternity as a colossal bit of profiteer ing. Hoppe says that he is willing to play Curwin Huston, an amateur whom he could defeat with his eyes shut and one hand behind his back A one-sided match like that would not draw a dollar for the fund. Hop pe has been making his living from billiards and the public support of the same, but he doesn't deserve to do so any longer, if reports of his at titude in this matter are true. As for Jess Willard, he is willing to box for war charities, hut not in New York, Texas preferred. Here is F. C. Hoffman Named to Take Harrisburg Vote F. C.
