rain last night turned Soldiers Field in
to lake, and the football team wen
through signal practice indoors. AT 3:3(

tackle; Boueve left guard; Doucet:e,
center; Haskell, right guard; Donald,
right tackle; Moulton, right end; Garri-
son, quarterback; Dibbie, 1eft-half

after o'clock, when they went 70 their
rooms. By 10 O'Clock the whole squad
had retired for the last nights re5t be-
fore the great contest with Harvard at
Soldiers Field tomorrow.
As regards Yale's chances for victory
there S little to be said. Captain Rodg-
ers and his coachers refused to talk for
publication on that score. In spite OF
the fact that the Yale men are not
loquacious however, it is not difficult to
see that the New Haven collegians are
not worrying.
Quietly. considerable betting was
done. Yale's sports mad plenty Of money
With them and they looked for and found
considerable at even figures. Captain
Rodgers admitted officially that Corwin
would take the place of Dudley, VINO was
called home by the death OF his mother.
