Browns practice yesterday was not all
that II should have been. owing chiefly 10
the fact that no second eleven put IA an
appearance. IL certainly seems a shame
that these men are so lax in their du-
ties 1t is the most important factor in
n seasons practice that aVarsity team
should have a good, strong second eleven
10 work against. II is "A very simple mat
ter to run through signal practice In an
open field with no opposition.
But when IL comes 10 game like Sat-
urday's with determined men to play
against, the need OF a strong second
eleven becomes painfully evident All the
men on tie scrub were willing TO play be-
fore the Chicago game for they wanted
10 so on the trip. They were taken TO the
Windy City, all their expenses paid, and
royal good time given them. That, how
ever, was their goal There is nothing
more To work for now except the honor
OF their college, and that is too trivial
thing TO care about.

The deputy sheriff filed a bill in equity
