Varsity Football Team Scrimmages Jayvees

The junior varsity football team, wearing blue jerseys and using Yale defensive formations, scrimmaged the varsity yesterday, it was reported last night by the Office of Sports Information. Practices this week have been closed to the press.

Fullback Jerry Blitz and center Buddy Lemay were said to have looked good in the scrimmage, which was short, but extremely spirited.

When the first defensive unit took over against the jayvees, Captain John Nichols, a tackle, and Jeff Coolidge, a linebacker, also played well, according to the CRIMSON's source.

"Beat Yale" signs, which usually appear at this time, are reliably reported to have been chalked on the walls at Dillon.

Coach Lloyd Jordan said yesterday that he will make the final decisions on whether Bob Hardy, Brian Reynolds, Harvey Popell, and Hank Toepke can play on Thursday after getting the doctor's report. Popell and Toepke should be ready, but Hardy and Reynolds will probably sit the game out.

Ron Noonan, defensive halfback, who has a bad shoulder, is definitely out.
