Freshman Practice.

Yesterday after practicing signals for a while the freshman first and second elevens lined up and played a hard snappy game for about half an hour. The second eleven showed up very well and kept the first playing for all it was worth. Catlin was tried at right guard in place of White and did fairly well, although the second made most of its gains between him and tackle.

The weak point of the freshman eleven is its defensive work and the men must improve a great deal in this respect if they wish to defeat U. of P. next Saturday. The centre men allow themselves to be carried off their feet frequently and if they do get low lose all sight of the play. The tackles are continually drawn out and the opposing team makes its biggest gains through tackle and guard.

The second eleven scored twice, once on straight football and the other time on a fluke. The first eleven had no trouble in scoring when they got the ball, to be sure, but were apparently unable to prevent the second from scoring. Adams played well for the second and Dayton ran well for the first.
