Yale Has Been Worked Hard.
The Yale football team has gone through a hard week's training. With the exception of Captain Spalding and a few stars, all the men have been put into hard scrimmages every day. Captain Spalding has been resting because of slight stomach trouble, but he will surely play in today's game with Syracuse. Bomeisler, the all-American end, will be out of the game for at least two weeks. The rudimentary drills with dummy and ball have been excessively long. Yesterday afternoon the freshmen were scrimmaged, and Warren, right tackle, was cut about the face. He will play in today's game, nevertheless.
