STRONG DEFENSE CERTAIN

4 A short scrimmage, following the sstrenuous if not close game with Wes- leyan after the day before, was held lat Yale field yesterday and the tirst eleven showed evidence of considerable Improvement after the first real con- test. The line of the first eleven was especially strong, even though BlgloW' Yale's star guard, stayed on the slde lines most of the time watching the work of both the elevens.
 i Only once was the first eleven able to 4 score against the second and that was < at the end of the scrimmage when Gov. who was then playing fullback on the varsity, caught the ball on an a attempted on-side kick and made ' forty yard run through a broken field < and a touchdown. No attempt was made to kick a goal.
 { The attention of the men was di- ! rected by the coaches to a scientific t playing of the game yesterday, rather \ than to scoring, and great deal of 5 practice on the on-side kick and the ' forward pass was tried
 Brides, who is at his old place at left guard, adds great strength to the line < and he will be able to play all the
 season, At the beginning of the year \ Yale seemed to be very weak in i guards, but now there is no lack of
 good substitutes, at least for next < year. Brown of last years freshman | eleven can play, relieving either Goe- bel or Brides, and practicing with the
 second eleven are Andrus Hobbs and Warren all of whom will be qualified next year. Hobbs was the crack guard on the Dartmouth eleven last year, and Warren played ons one of the big elev- ems. Both have entered Yale, but ow- ing to the eligibility rules cannot play 2 this fall.
 The lineup of the first eleven at the start yesterday was: Ends, H. Jones and Burch tackles, Biglow and Paige; guards. Goebel and Brides; center Cooney; quarterback, Tad Jones; half- backs, Murphy and Wheaton; full back, Wylie. The changes made in the first lineup were the substitution oi
 Foster for Biglow, Dimes for Tad
 Jones, and Bomar, Berger and Coy taking the back positions of Murphy Wheaton and Wylie. The lineup of the a second eleven: Hagan and Burke
 ends; Hobbs and Thornton, tackles; Andrus and Dunbar, guards; Parks
 center; Philbin and Holt, halfbacks
 and Denny, fullback
 The elevens remained near the cen. I ter of the field during the whole scrim
 mage and neither goal was in danger
 except when the touchdown was made
 Forward passes by Murphy, Coy ant
 Wheaton and tackles by Brides were
 the features of the scrimmage.
 After the scrimmage the men were
 given special coaching. Coy punted
 several times from the center of the
 field up into the grand stand over the
 goal posts and Wheaton made somt
 beautiful long, drop kicks.
 Several coaches were at the field
 yesterday afternoon, William McCor-
 mack Blair, who coached the freshman
 football eleven and the freshman crew
 last year and who rowed in the var.
 sity four-oared two years, was on the
 field, and among the others were
