A soggy field and a chilly wind slowed up football practice yesterday afternoon. The usual blackboard talk was held and the various positions were gone over by Field Coach L. H. Leary '05. The work on the field was necessarily of a light nature. The ends were given practice running down under kicks and the backs were instructed in receiving punts. In spite of the heavy balls the kicking was unusually good. The line was under the direct charge of Coach Leary, who gave them easy drill in breaking through. The whole squad tackled the dummies, the line being directed by Captain H. H. Dadmun '16 and the ends and backs by Coach Leary. Teams A and B then lined up for a snappy signal drill and the afternoon's work was completed by the usual run. The temporary teams remained unchanged. A 15-minute scrimmage is on today's program.
