Bond '19, all the men who played against Princeton last Saturday were excused from football practice yesterday afternoon and given an opportunity to take a well deserved rest.

...Horween '18 was given a short tryout at his old backfield position yesterday afternoon after having been unable to play since the Cornell game. He did not seem to be weakened in any way by his enforced rest for, though in only a short time, was active in all the plays. W. F.
