'VARSITY PRACTICE.

The 'Varsity again showed up promisingly in their practice yesterday afternoon. Every man was in the game all the time and several of the players really did commendable work. Haughton showed his best form of the season in back-field work. His blocking off for the protection of the runner on receiving punts was unusually strong, while his punts were long and well placed. Twice he interfered for Dibblee so successfully on kicks that he was enabled to make fine 15 and 25 yard runs. Late in the practice however he was struck so hard by the opposing ends that he was compelled to leave the field in favor of Mills. The latter bucked the line hard and did fair work in the interference. Behind the line Dibblee was always sure of long gains and dodged with such skill that he gained repeatedly after he had been virtually downed. At centre Doucette played hard and fast and repulsed centre attacks inevitably with a loss of ground.

Richardson was again tried at left end and showed conclusively that he was worthy of a trial. His strong point was in getting down the field on punts.

Throughout the practice the 'Varsity showed a lack of unity in their team play. However, this may have been due largely to the constant change of positions which of necessity brought forth individual play and prevented the men from getting together to any marked degree.

During the thirty-five minutes of line-up the 'Varsity had the ball most of the time and found the second's line vulnerable at almost every point. The playing was hard and fast, though characterized by a considerable amount of fumbling. The 'Varsity scored three times, while their goal was never threatened by the second eleven. One of the touchdowns was made by Garrison on a kick blocked by Wheeler. The other two, however, were made on straight football, hard rushes by Boal and Mills carrying the ball over the line.

All the 'Varsity men with the exception of Warren and Cabot were on the field. Swain was out and simply warmed up by taking light exercise. The only other disabled candidate for the team is Sullivan, who sustained another injury to his weak leg in recent practice and will probably be kept out of the game for some time.

Ex-Captain Wrightington did some hard coaching in his football clothes, by playing fullback on the second.

Contrary to the custom of having the team practice in secret during the week previous to the Pennsylvania game, it has been decided to hold open practice for the remainder of this week.
