long signal drill The men played with dash anu
snap and after it was over Morley SAID thal II
had been encouraging. .
Although Won Saltza was not out yesterday ii
r.ss learned that he is likely to in the lineup
tomorrow In the last few days his mothers III
ness has taken decided turn for the peteeI' ai"
he has told Morley that he expects TO De dpio ~
play Won Saltza's absence from practice is not
likely 20 prove detrimental to the work of the Dig
tackle. Before the Princeton game he was tf'iie e.
exceedingly fine, and he would probably nave oee
rested up under any circumstances, to prevent an
possibility of his going stale.
With the announcement that he can play comes
another that Duncan Browne probably VIII mo-
Although his injury was not serious, 1t was WORSE

having made enables him to begin the game, At -
doubtful if he will be able to play for more tnah

Both Armstrong and Fisher were kept puntihs
yesterday for long time. Fisher is showing I'M I'M

The announcement that Won Saltza viii play mas
encouraged the undergraduates but there Is SUI
a feeling that the chances of scoring are smali.
During the entire work only Twenty-Five minutes
of scrmmage work has been attempted Five min
against the scrub on Tuesday and twenty
against the freshmen the next day. The ends have
been doing good work w. Fisher, Enos. Post and
Fowler all practised getting down the field under
punts yesterday. They got away quickly and sell
dom failed to nail the runner in his tracks The
practice this afternoon will be of the nghtest kind,
just enough to keep the men up to the notch.
