The University football squad resumed hard work yesterday afternoon, two teams composed of first and second string men, designated as A and B, scrimmaging against each other for an hour.
There was no scoring, as the ball was given first to one team and then to the other, and travelled back and forth in mid-field, while the coaches tried out defensive and offensive tactics.
The condition of the various men on the injured list has improved in a gratifying way. According to latest reports from Stillman Infirmary last night Captain Brickley is expected to be able to walk within ten days owing to the splendid way in which he has recovered from the direct effects of the operation. Pennock's case of water on the knee is not as serious as first developments indicated and he may be used in the game against Tufts on Saturday; while Mahan's injured leg is showing gradual improvement. D. P. Morgan, who broke his hand in last Saturday's game, and Sweetser, the substitute tackle who tore a ligament in his ankle, will both be out of the game for three weeks.
The playing of the two teams yesterday was not up to the University standard, since the new men in the line-up required a great deal of coaching in the rudiments of the game. Bradlee was the only regular in the backfield of team A, Hardwick being excused because of a number of bruises which he received in the game against Washington and Jefferson.
Logan and Rollins were again in playing togs for the first time since their injuries and took light exercise. Sigourney, Kean and C. Coolidge were brought up from the second to the University squad.
There was a great deal of shifting back and forth between those playing on either team, but the real first string team was made up with Soucy at centre, Weston and Withington, guards; Trumbull and R. C. Curtis, tackles; L. Curtis and J. E. P. Morgan, ends; Watson quarter, and Bradlee, Whitney and Harris in the backfield.
