HARLOW SPRINGS UNEXPECTED SCRIMMAGE ON VARSITY

Ernie Fuller '39, Junior Varsity center for three years, was elected captain of the Jayvee team yesterday afternoon. On the same afternoon William Cordingley '40, Junior Varsity fullback, received a broken leg in the last few minutes of scrimmage.

Cordingley was playing defensive wing-back at the time, and the accident occurred when he was struck simultaneously by two blockers. He was carried into the field house where Augustus Thorndike the attendant physician, set the leg with the aid of Dr. Frank Marvin who administered the anesthesia. Cordingley last year was a member of the Varsity basketball squad and the Varsity golf team. It is expected that he will not be out for basketball until after Christmas vacation.

In yesterday's Varsity football practice Dick Harlow, contrary to expectations held an hour's scrimmage for the A and B teams. A and B alternated first with a half hour of passing offense and then a half hour of running. The C team was on the defensive.

Mike Chohen played fullback for both A and B. Gardelia and Smith, the alternate fullbacks were away from the field with hour exams. So far the starting lineup against Virginia Saturday will be the regular first string, with the question of the fullback up in the air. Smith is the likely choice, judging from the Chicage game.
