YALE'S MAGNIFICENT WORK
GENUINE OLD TIME FOOTBALL AT
 YALE FIELD YESTERDAY.

The Splendid Results of the Hard Prac-
 tiOe on Monday Were Everywhere In
 EvIdence--Team Work Perfected in
 Many Particulars-Cutten's Work at
 Center-Bright Prospects.
 That's the best work you ever did" said Foster Sanford, the Yale coach, to Cutten, the theologue, at the football practice yesterday afternoon, and in deed it was. The remark could well have been applied to the whole Yale team. The good effects of the hard work given the men on Monday were everywhere in evidence and each one of the p men played with snap which has characterized Yale football for many years. It was indeed the old time football and seemed as though veterans were playing instead of the inexperienced men who compose the greater part of the two elevens. The way the university eleven broke up the interference, tore great holes in the college line, gaining from three to ten yards at each time, and scoring a touchdown from the center of the field in about three minutes, was most en- couraging. The crowds of students on the bleachers became very enthusiastic and applauded as if Yale had scored on Harvard Individual improvement as we'll as in team work was clearly not iceable, and both are good indications. Cutten's work at center was superb He got the ball back in excellent shape and played strong aggressive game. Several times he broke through the college line and secured the ball, keep ing the college from gaining. He was closely watched by Sanford, who was quite enthusiastic over his improve ment. Cutten has one bad fault which must soon be remedied, and that is playing too high on the defensive. The man who plays low in the line will be many times more effective than one who stands up straight. Richardson, Andrews and Stillman were also tried 5 Cook and Richards played tackle. Brown and Marshall devoted portion of the time to coaching the men play ing guard. Allen and Durston again played tackles on the college side, and did excellent work. It will be a close race between these two men for the po- sition of left tackle on the university team with the chances at present slightly in favor of Allen. The latter played tackle on the university eleven.
 Beard and Near both played strong games at half on the college team, but were badly handicapped in their efforts at ground gaining by the poor interfer- ence of the men on their team. Dur ing the last three minutes there was general change in the makeup of the university eleven. It was as follows, and the chances are that to-day's line up against Brown will be about the same: Cutten, center; Brown, left guard; Marshall, right guard; Allen, right tackle; Durston, left tackle; Coy, right end; Hubbell, left end; deSaulles, quarter back; Corwin, right half; Townshend, left half; Mcbride, full back
 With the university eleven made up as above they went down the field for touchdown, and there terrific on- slaughts could not be resisted. It was truly Yale football, and everyone came from the field greatly encouraged over the prospects. It was indeed a splen- did exhibition of football. Captain Chamberlin was out in citizens clothes and assisted in the coaching.
 J. o. Rodgers '9S, Charles Chadwick '97S., and Foster Sanford were also out and gave to the men many valuable pointers. Instead of breaking tendon in his right arm Sanford broke a small bone at the elbow. He did it by falling ing peculiar way while assisting in the coaching on Monday. He will be compelled to keep it tightly bandaged for some time.
 It is thought by many that to-day's game with the eleven from Brown uni- versity with be much harder one than the one with the Carlisle Indians on Saturday. Brown has had a good team for several years past and there are many good men on the eleven this year.
 Beard and Allen have both been taken to the training table.
