The first scrimmage of the spring practice for the football squad was held on Soldiers Field yesterday afternoon. Two games were played, each of which consisted of two five-minute halves. In the first scrimmage team A defeated team B, 5 to 0, F. de. H. Houston '10 scoring on a long run after a fumble. The game between teams C and D was marred by constant fumbling, neither team being able to hold the ball long enough to score. C. D. Daly '01 was on the field coaching the candidates for quarterback.
