Three Teams Put Through Dummy Scrimmage -- Real Scrimmage Will Come Today

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Rivalling in interest the announcement of the first three line-ups, the gloomy news was given out yesterday afternoon after football practice that H. T. Dunker '25, veteran guard and two-year letterman, was definitely lost to the team for a period of at least a month. Dunker, who has been absent from practice since last Friday, has developed a mild case of diphtheria. The necessary precautionary measures have been taken by inoculating the whole University squad, football management, and all who came in contact with Dunker. Dunker is confined in the Stillman Infirmary under the care of Dr. Richards, who announces that the case is mild, but that it will certainly be a month before the veteran guard can play.

Long Awaited Line-ups Given Out

Yesterday's practice resulted in the long waited for tentative line-ups. For the first time this year football enthusiasts have been allowed to know what was going on inside the closed gates of the Stadium. Only dummy scrimmage was held yesterday but the real thing is promised for today.

Two quarterbacks, F. G. Akers '25, a Senior of two years service on the University squad, and Nathaniel Hamlen '27, who directed last year's Freshman team, were dropped yesterday to the scrubs. This leaves Coach Fisher with but three experienced quarterbacks McGlone, Spalding and Stafford.

Another change was made yesterday in the end berths F W La Farge '25, a two year veteran of the seconds joined Captain Greenough's ranks, while S S Rudman '27 dropped to Coach know's squad.
