...University football team began work again yesterday afternoon with a very light practice, consisting only of signal drill on new defensive and offensive formations.

All three are expected to get back to work within a few days at the most. Captain Wendell was in the line-up of team A and seemed...

The pass was from...
Though he has taken part regularly in the signal drills, Captain Wendell has not yet returned to the scrimmages, and it is rather doubtful whether he will play against Brown tomorrow. Lingard took his place yesterday in the scrimmage. Driscoll, who played guard in the early season games until injured, has done some scrimmaging during the week but will probably not play tomorrow, Trumbull taking his place.
