FootBall.

Work at football has now begun in earnest, and the men are all playing with a great deal of vim and determination. The loss of several of last year's best players is a serious drawback on the prospects of an eleven for this year, and Captain Cumnock evidently sees that to win against Yale or Princeton, he must make the most of the men he has and try to develop good men by hard and conscientious work.

Almost thirty men were chosen from those who came out last week, to undergo a daily rouiine of practice; the rushers under Mr. Lathrop, were given practice in tackling in the gymnasium, after which they practiced blocking and falling on the ball in the field.

Class elevens are to be formed this year and any good material which is discovered in the class games will be devoted to the 'varsity eleven. Candidates for all the class elevens began practice on the new field behind Divinity Hall yesterday.
