YALE FOOTBALL NOTES.

The fact that Yale played gruelling
football against Bowdoin Wednesday
did not cause Head Coach Mcbride to
| let up on the Varsity eleven in its
practice yesterday. He sent the two
rival elevens, which compose the Var

halves. In the second half he took a
number of the leading varsity players
out of the line. Mcbride made an inn
portant experiment yesterday in shelly
ing the regular Varsity ends, Coy and
Gould, whose work has been unsa It's
factory for two weeks and installed
| in their places the freshman ends, Raj
ferty and Goetchius. The new men
showed lack of experience in such fast
company as the Yale varsity eleven
Their showing was even worse than
that of the regulars. Captain Brown
has sent for ex-Captain Frank Hinkey
to come and develop the ends. Two new
coachers We're here yesterday, Howard
Richards of last years eleven, and
Vance Mccormick, captain in so. The
other coachers, Mcbride, BENJAMIN,
Adee, and Heffelfnger, We're all in uni
FORM and took part in the practice,
playing on the second eleven for part
of the drill. Captain Brown and Quar-
ter Back Wear scored touchdowns dur
ing the play Wear catching a long punt
close by the side lines and running for
ty yards for a score. Captain Brown
seized the ball on a tumble and wormed
his way from the second eleven's tack
lers for a touchdown. Holt, the substi-
tute center, was played on the Varsity,
Olcott being dropped to the scrubs
