Holy Cross Is Working Hard for the
Game With Brown Saturday.
The Holy Cross eleven was lined up
for practice yesterday afternoon with
still further changes noticeable. Coach
Connor is determined to have plenty Of
substitutes in shape to be played
against Brown Saturday, and expects
to use two full elevens. AS fast as any
player on the second team shows ability
he is transferred to the first. Coach
Conner said yesterday: Il want you
men to understand once for all that no
man is sure of his position, and that he
will be shifted as soon as more prom
Using man presents himself"
AS an evidence of this, Ryan was or
dereG to replace Monahan at left-erd
and Lawlor to change positions with
McGuaid. Kelley was played at quar-
ter, and in the second half Batters yes
substituted for Sullivan on the secon1
eleven. Sullivan's shoulder is troubling
him since the "Aggie" game, last Sat
urday, when he scraped large pleee
Of skin off it. Baldwin and Morrison
lined up for the first time today, anG
both showed up well. The latter is a
very aggressive player, reliable man
on tackles, and follows the ball We'll
halfback on the Brighton high school
team. most of whose games Wel3
against the Newton A. c. eleven, and
has lined up against Harvard in prac-
tice games. Coach Conner thinks well
Of him.
Thirty and twenty minute halves
were played, after work on the lacking
dummy, and resulted in a win OF II-5
for the first eleven. This is the last
hard practice prior to the Brown game,
and the zest which the two teams en-
tered into the play augurs we'll for a
good match at the oval Saturday, and
Worcester sports are promised their
rnorey's worth Coach Conner has con-
fidence in the men, and gives them con-
fdence in themselves. The squad is in
very good condition.
