ENTIRE CRIMSON SQUAD WILL BE READY FOR SCRIMMAGE ON MONDAY

TEAM B OPPOSES SECONDS IN LONG SCRIMMAGE

A feeling of determination mingled with optimism was prevalent at Soldiers Field yesterday in spite of Saturday's defeat when it became known that the entire University squad will be fit for scrimmage again by next Monday. Buell and Spalding, who both received the same left injury, will be back in uniform, it is hoped, by Friday of this week and Dunker will be ready again by the first of next week at the latest.

With "Beat Yale" the slogan for this week and next, Coach Fisher will spend the remaining nine days of practice before the game in the Bowl perfecting the teamwork of the Crimson eleven in an effort to instill a continuous offensive drive and defensive line charge which was glaringly absent on Saturday. The University coaches are confident that the defeat by Princeton was of immense value in the experience it afforded the Crimson players and in the determined spirit which it created as the Yale game draws near.

Coach Fisher will take no unnecessary risks with his first-string men against the heavy and experienced Brown team in the Stadium this week-end. Although at least part of team A will journey to New Haven to see the Tiger-Eli clash, Coach Fisher is still undecided which men will make the trip and which will face Brown.

Team B Tries Offence on Seconds

Yesterday team A was given a complete rest but team B was sent against Coach Knox's eleven in an exhaustive, offensive scrimmage. The opening Crimson line-up had little trouble scoring against the scrubs, but when team C was substituted, the advance decreased in power and length.
