FIRST HARD DRILL OF WEEK

The Football practice yesterday after-noon was of a varied sort. Signal practice, special drill for the linemen, ends and backs under their respective coaches occupied the first part of the afternoon, while a hard scrimmage with the seconds was the order for the last half hour.

The team presented its strongest line-up to the seconds during the scrimmage. T. J. Coolidge, at left end being the only regular not in the play. C. A. Coolidge took his place, as he has all the week. In other years T. J. Coolidge has been subject to injuries which have kept him from finishing the season, so it is possible that the coaches may decide to keep him out of the game tomorrow in order to insure his fitness for use in the Yale game.

The brief scrimmage which occupied the last part of yesterday's practice was the first hard work the first team has had this week, for on Monday they were given a rest, and the other two days the practice was devoted almost entirely to drill in the perfection of offensive and defensive tactics.

Practice this afternoon will doubtless be a light one, in consideration of the game tomorrow. Mahan will probably not appear on the field, as he has been excused in order that he may coach the Andover eleven in their final drill before the Exeter game. Whitney or Rollins will appear in his place.

If the game tomorrow turns out well enough in the early periods, many of the substitutes will replace, the regulars in the line-up. T. J. Coolidge surely will be rested, while Hardwick, Mahan, Bradlee and Townsend will be relieved as much as possible. D. P. Morgan, who returned Wednesday after an extended absence, will probably be given a through tryout tomorrow.

Several members of the University strategic squad will leave this afternoon for Princeton, to see the Yale-Princeton game tomorrow, Capt. Brickley, Coach R. Brown and Coach Haughton will probably be among those to make the trip.

The team lined up yesterday in the following order: C. A. Coolidge, I.e.; Parson, I.t.; Pennock, I.g.; Wallace, c.; Weston, r.g.; Trumbull, r.t.; Hardwick, r.e.; Logan, q.b.; Mahan, I.h.b.; Bradlee, r.h.b.; Francke, f.b.
