SQUAD GONE TO MEDFIELD

To Rest for Tomorrow's Game.--Practice Yesterday for Only Nine Men.

The University football squad of 29 players, Coaches Haughton, Burr, Cutler, Daly and Leary, and managers Parsons, de Windt, and Gray spent last night at the Norfolk Hunt Club in Medfield. The majority of the squad left Harvard square yesterday afternoon at 1.45 o'clock. Coaches Haughton and Daly and the following nine men followed on a later train, after a short signal practice and a drill in punting to the back-field in the Stadium: H. F. Corbett '11, T. Frothingham '12, H. C. Leslie '11, R. G. McKay '11, W. M. Minot '11, D. V. O'Flaherty '10, J. G. B. Perkins '11, H. B. Sprague '11, and R. B. Wigglesworth '12.

The men at Medfield kicked a football around after lunch, but had no signal practice, and then went for a walk. Joshua Crane '90, head coach of the 1907 team, D. C. Campbell '02, R. A. Derby '05, H. E. Kersberg '06, and B. Parker '08 were with the squad during the afternoon, but left before supper. After supper the men were given a short talk by Coach Haughton and were sent to bed early. As there was not enough room to put up the whole squad in the club, some of the men slept in adjoining houses.
