Following once more the system used several times this season of giving the University basketball team a stiff practice scrimmage in preparation for its games, Coach Wachter, preliminary to the contest with Worcester tomorrow, sent his charges against two yearling quintets at Hemenway Gymnasium yesterday afternoon.
