LONG PRACTICE AT SIGNALS

"Dummy" Scrimmage in Formations for First and Second Teams.

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

The University football squad had a long signal drill during the secret practice held yesterday afternoon in the Stadium. Later the second team lined up against the first team for a short "dummy" scrimmage, in which the teams practiced formations and plays to be used against Dartmouth on Saturday.

G. G. Browne and McKay were both in the line-up, Browne playing left end in place of Houston. Wigglesworth replaced O'Flaherty during the signal practice, running the team fast and accurately. Hooper and Minot were both given a lay off, but were on the field. Minot will probably be in the line-up today or tomorrow.

After the regular practice Coach Kennard spent some time with O'Flaherty, drilling him in drop-kicking. P. Withington tried a number of kick-offs. The signal drill for both the University team and substitutes was held after the "dummy" work, and when this was concluded the teams were sent in.

The University and second teams lined up against each other in the following order:

No Scrimmage for 1913 Yesterday.

The Freshman football team practice yesterday consisted in a blackboard talk, a drill in formations and plays against the substitutes in which particular attention was paid to forming interference around the runner, and punting to the backfield. The backs were very weak in catching punts, Wendell being especially uncertain in this department. FIRST TEAM.  SECOND TEAM. Browne, Houston, l.e.  r.e., Whitney McKay, Bush, l.t.  r.t., Davis L. Withington, l.g.  r.g., Blake P. Withington, c.  c., Barber Fisher, r.g.  l.g., Knapp Fish, r.t.  l.t., Coburn L. D.
