...spite of the fact that there will be but two more hard practices before the Yale game, the football team yesterday consumed an afternoon in work which, judged even by the discouraging practices which have been only too frequent lately, seemed distinctly retrograde. Today there will be no practice; on next Monday and Thursday the work will be light, and Tuesday and Wednesday of the last week are thus left to correct the faults of a season...
Although marred by frequent fumbling, the work of the Freshman eleven yesterday showed good snap and spirit, both on offense and defense.

Slow work in the line allowed the blocking of the punts, and failure to follow the play made the runs possible. In the game with the Freshman team, the University eleven started with a series of tackle plays which carried the ball in four minutes from the centre of the field to the goal line. Wright carried...
