EASY DAY FOR ELEVEN

PREPARING FOR BROWN

With every member of the football squad reporting, and all in good condition, the University football team started its work in preparation for the Brown game in earnest yesterday afternoon. The weather was cold, and although a scrimmage was possible, the men at first spent a long time in single drill, running through all their plays and perfecting them.

All the regulars were down on the field, but they did not all get into the practice. Several were not dressed for practice, but merely looked on while the other regulars and the substitutes worked out. Among those who were given little hard work were E. L. Casey '19, W. J. Murray '18 and T. C. Thatcher '18, whose places were filled most of the time by R. H. Bond '19 and J. C. Harris '17.

These men were not in the game for long, as the substitutes did the bulk of the work. That they were not pushed is an indication that Coach Haughton is likely to start only his second-string men against Brown on Saturday, although that college has one of the most powerful teams it has produced in recent years. Considering the weather and its effects, there was a minimum of loose playing. The only man who did not report for practice was D. G. Lovell '17, who is suffering with a slight cold, but he will report this week.
