In spite of a dismal, chilling rain that kept up more or less constantly during the practice of the 'varsity football squad yesterday afternoon, the men, for the most part, put considerable snap into their work.

During the first part of the time the first eleven and a few of the substitutes went through the signals and practiced the interference. The others practiced kicking and catching punts. P. W. Whittemore '95 came out for the first time and played back on the first eleven. Water and Mackie both took their regular places, and Waters played the entire time. Mackie played only a few minutes.

When the first and second elevens lined up for the last twenty minutes of the practice the 'varsity started with the ball and within two minutes Wrightington, aided by good interference, made a run of forty - five yards and a touchdown. Four touchdowns were made in all. Wrenn continued his good work at quarterback and whenever the second eleven had the bail broke through and tackled well. The interference of the first eleven was very good, but the defensive work of the second eleven was weak, with the exception of one or two times when they held their ground fairly well. The elevens lined up in the following order:
