Unexpected and important changes have just been made in the Yale eleven. Hogan, who early in the season showed great promise as a tackle, has been playing a slow game recently; and on Wednesday was sent to the scrub, Hamlin a substitute on last year's team replacing him. Hamlin is not brilliant, but is so steady and reliable that he has a good chance of holding right tackle. His weight is also in his favor. Goss, who has played steadily at left tackle, was very weak in the Bates game, and as he failed to improve, he has been replaced by Johnson. Johnson will probably keep the place as he weighs over two hundred pounds and is very active. Wilhelmi who has replaced Hart at left halfback, is not fast enough to hold the position, so the change is only temporary. The team as it now stands shows weak spots at both tackles and right end; Weymouth's inability to punt also causes a weak spot at full-back.
A point of great importance to the team is the eligibility of Glass, a question still undecided. Princeton has agreed to allow him to play, but the fact still remains that by the letter of the rules he is ineligible.
