WIND AND RAIN MEAN NOTHING TO COACH FISHER OR HIS SQUAD

WYNANT HUBBARD TAKES BROWN'S BERTH ON TEAM A

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

A driving wind and rain which flooded Soldiers Field and saturated players and coaches, did not bring any rest from hard scrimmaging to Coach Fisher's pupils. After a preliminary drill in the cage, the Crimson coach pitted his squad against Coach Knox's scrappy second eleven. In order to save the turf in the Stadium field for tomorrow's game, the battle was staged on the Freshman gridiron, which was in a drenched condition better suited to water polo than football.

One newcomer appeared in the University eleven as they lined up for the tussle on their 20-yard line. Wynant Hubbard, the big Team B tackle, was in Brown's place at guard, while the rest of the team was the same aggregation which faced the scrubs yesterday. With Chapin and Owen as Team A backs every day this week, it seems likely that Coach Fisher will pit them against Maine tomorrow, giving the two veterans, Humphrey and Gratwick, another day of rest. This combination of last year's Freshman backs, working with Johnson and Captain Horween, seems to give a smooth running backfield organization.

Costly Fumble by Subs

After an exchange of punts, a second team fumble put Coach Fisher's men in scoring position. A series of line bucks advanced the pigskin close to the goalposts, where Owen plunged across for a touchdown.

The second team took the ball on the University's 20-yard line, but handicapped by the mud, were unable to resist the heavier red-jerseyed line. The University gained on every exchange of punts, and, with the aid of off-tackle runs by Chapin, advanced to the 20-yard line, where Horween charged through the black line for a touchdown.

No Pity for the Seconds

Trainer "Pooch" Donovan sent the regulars to the showers, while the mud-smeared scrubs stayed on the gridiron to oppose Team B. They showed they were still fighting, however, by throwing the subs for several 8-yard losses, until they had put the red-jerseys on their own 4-yard line. Here a long punt by Stillman put his eleven out of danger, and a second team fumble reversed the advantage. Showing much improved form, the subs started a formidable drive, which finally netted them a touchdown by Rouillard, and concluded practice.

Team B lined up as follows at the start of the scrimmage: ends, Finley and Kane; tackles, Eastman and Cooper; guards, Brown and Holmes; center, Tierney; quarterback, Fitzgerald; fullback, Stillman; halfbacks, Churehill and Rouillard. and concluded practice.
