 The game between the Yale Varsity and the Newton Athletic club eevens, last Saturday, was of advantage to Yale in many particulars. Serious de- fleets in the makeup and playing of the team, noticed by the coaches as the game progressed, will be remedied this week. There was little or no team work, and this accounts in great meas ure for the small score, Victory with out team work is an utter mlpossibllity on football field, and the sooner that Yale coaches realize the want of this important feature in the playing of Yale's eleven the sooner winning team will be developed.
 Two hard games are scheduled for this week and the results will be watch ed by every one interested in the Yale team, and the betting on the games with both Princeton and Harvard will be influenced to a great degree.
 On Wednesday the crack team from Brown university plays here. Coach Moyle was in the city yesterday morn- ing and stated that his team was in excellent condition, and especially the backs. The line is trilie unsteady be- cause of it's being composed almost en- tirely of new men. Cannon and FulZ, ! the two half-backs, are said to have no < superiors.
 On Saturday, in New York city, at 4 the Polo Grounds, the Indians and Yale meet on the gridiron. The good show 4 ing made by the Indians in their game with Princeton last Saturday ought to impress those in charge of the Yale team that every man must be in the pink of condition or defeat will be suf- s fered
 Work at the field yesterday was char A acterized by some of the old-time vim and snap which has been so noticea- bly, absent this fall. The men did not seem to mind the practice, because of M the eXC6llGuL WedlUSI. IiSlt plesSeiNC J will be the order to-day. The law school promises to have a x baseball team that will rival the fla x nous team of '93. About twenty-five z3 men have signified an intention of try < ing for positions on the same. Practice A will be held every afternoon until the @ weather forbids.
