Freshman vs. Picked Eleven.

Tuesday afternoon, Eighty-Eight played a practice game with a scrub team chosen hastily from Eighty-Seven, and, although the latter were defeated, it cannot be said that the freshmen played a very brilliant game. Their rush-line, although composed of men who ought to play a very effective game, showed little snap in their work, and seemed to rely upon the half-backs to do the playing for the entire team, while the half-backs in turn passed poorly and often fumbled the ball.

Eighty-Seven has good material, and it is hoped that they will make the best use of the few remaining days that they have for practice, before the Yale game, and show a decided improvement.
