NEW DEPARTURE IN FOOTBALL ANNOUNCED BY SECOND TEAM COACH.

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

The football management has inaugurated a system this year which it is believed will add greatly to the popularity of the already popular game at the University. This change will affect primarily the members of the second squad. In past years this squad has been made up of about 70 men, a number too large for the coaches to conveniently instruct, and necessitating considerable inaction upon the side-lines. Consequently this fall, only about 25 of the best men will be retained for this eleven, the rest of the squad being divided into elevens Withington's place at guard. These two men have both been substitutes for two seasons, and are nearly equal in experience and ability.

The large score which Team A rolled up was not due to their being in possession of the ball most of the time. The second team was given an even chance at rushing, but could not penetrate the regular defense as far as the danger zone.

Team A's alert defense against the forward pass resulted in two of the touchdowns. Bradlee and Mahan each intercepted the ball and got clear for a long run across the second's goal line. The other touchdowns came on straight line rushing from simple formations. Brickley's lone drop kick was made from the 25-yard line. The first team followed the ball persistently and twice recovered the ball within scoring distance when the second's backs fumbled punts. Bradlee carried the ball more than usually yesterday but the extra work seemed to make no difference in his brilliant defensive play.

W. Whitney '16, who played in the backfield for Team B, has just been taken up from the second squad largely on account of his punting ability. At the same time Doherty and Gersumky were sent from the University squad to the seconds.

The teams lined up as follows:
