BRILLIANT PLAYING.

The large crowd of students who witnessed the football practice yesterday afternoon were very much encouraged by the brilliant playing. The feature of the afternoon, as well as the longest run made thus far this season, was the dash of 75 yards by Capt. Wrightington, who got the ball on a fumble by Weld, and scored the only touchdown of the afternoon.

The play seemed to inspire the other men for almost immediately afterward Brown made a rush of 30 yards, which he followed closely with a fine tackle of Sullivan, who had cleared the line and tried to duplicate Wrightington's run. After thus distinguishing himself Brown became unsteady and failed to drop two goals when he was given the opportunity. E. H. Davis also made a good tackle, throwing Wrightington back for a considerable loss.

The line-up was as follows:

FIRST. SECOND.

E. H. Davis, l. e. r. e., Martin.

D. F. Davis, l. e. r. e., Irwin.
