HARTFORD. Sept. e6.-The opening game Of
the Trinity football eleven will be played here
on Wednesday with the Yale team. The local
men expect TO hold Yale down to q small score
and mako her work for every point she gets.
Last season Trinity held the wearers Of the dark
blue down to six points. and was within three
yards of making the score q tie. Many coachers
were on the field the pas: week, and they spent
much time in drilling the men, who have i'm
proved greatly. Capt. woodle. 'ss. will prob
ably retain his position at left half back. while
Littell. 's9. will be the other back. Ellis. so.
and Rich, 30. will be seen again on the ends. and
Ingalls,. 80. and Lord. '9s. the latter q new
player, are almost sure OF positions.
Two of last years substitutes, Johnson. '9s.
aud Bacon. '99. are showing promising work.
The lack OF large men with weight will be felt
in the guards, though. Another new player.
Blakslcy: 30. will be tried at tackle. as he shows
up satisfactorily. Quarter back will be filed
either by Sturtevant, 1901. or Brown, 1900. with
chances in favor OF the former. owing to his ex-
perience. There is a hot contest on for full back.
