New York Sun Special Service.
New Have, Conn.,, Sept 3O.-The Yale coaches
yesterday gave the football squad some hard
drilling in points in which the players
showed superficial knowledge in the game with
Wesleyan. Special attention was paid to run
ming back the ball from the kickoff. The college
team was given the ball at the kickoff and under
strenuous coaching the varsity ran it back to
the 35-yard line.
Captain Hogan and Bloomer did not participate
in all the hard work. Quill was also the side
lies with lame knee. Kinney and Trip, the
latter formerly of the University of Chicago,
have passed off their scholarship conditions and
joined the squad. They will probably make the
guard positions.
Three elevens were at signal practice, the
squad being increased by ten freshmen. Hocken-
berger, the Andover guard, is being coached for
ing for goal. Tom Sheyln joined the varsity IN
the scrimmage for the first time.

These little tits are all right in football camp.
They serve to keep each man on his toes to beat
out the other fellow. The Minnesota team for
1904 is not picked by a long ways, and the COM
petition for place is keen.
The game with shattuck developed one fact.
Minnesota has a great quarterback coming IN
Hunter. Few of the spectators of the Shattuck
game knew that Hunter went into the second
half sick lad and that his long runs were pain
full incidents to him. It was not thought best
for him to go in, but he insisted and made one
of the pretkiest field runs ever seen on grid
iron. He runs his team fast, and 80 lar this
year has not lost his head IN tight place. HIS

Speculation is rife to the points Minnesota
will score during the season. During the prac-

figure possibilities. One enthusiast has declared
that Minnesota will run up 800 points, and was
howled at for his estimate. He figured 1t out
to his own satisfaction, but to reach 800 gave
some scores against schools which will be greatly
