1940 ELEVEN OPPOSES WORCESTER TODAY AT 2

Opposing Worcester Academy on Soldiers Field, an improved Freshman football eleven plays its first home game at 2 o'clock this afternoon.

Coach Henry Lamar has shifted his line up in the effort to secure a more powerful combination than the one that lost to Exeter last week by a 12-7 score.

George Duane, former Newton High star, starts at left end, and Carrick Heiskell, of St. Marks opens the game at left guard. Peter Pratt, backfield luminary in Milton Academy's squad last year, starts today at right half.

The Yardlings have shown considerable spark in practice all week, and the blocking and general coordination of the eleven is greatly improved. Worcester, as yet untried did not look impressive in their scoreless tie with Laurence, but did demonstrate scoring power when they defeated Cushing 19-6 last week.

Admission to the game will be 55 cents, and tickets may be purchased at Gates 9, 14 and 20.
