varsity eleven sought and found re-
vengo yesterday for the drubbing the
freshmen gave them last week, They
showed the 1912 players ruthlessly aside
for three ~touchdowns, but the freshies
secured some consolation when Savage
negotiated a clever drop goal from the
thirty-fve-yard line, saving themselves
a shut-out.
From tackle to tackle the rush line
played as usual, except hat Andrus
was able to scrimmage for the first
time recently. Hobbs was still unable
to work in active football and Lilley
resumed Misplace at left tackle. There
was another double shift at end.
Naedele being given right end again
and Logan being transferred to the left
wing. Fitzpatrick will hardly be able
t. play before the PRINCETON game.
Field Captain Coy was still absent
and Burch was in charge of the work.
Bingham, at quarterback, gave the sig
nails but no formal field captain was
appointed. It was decided not to risk
Philbin in a scrimfnage and Henry
Holt was used at left halfback. HaiEes
again filled Coy's place at fullback.
Rain fell heavily when practise began.
but ceased before play finished. The
grldiron was a sea of mud n the
players foundered about from start to

and tried their hands at something
else. Fighters are like pieces of ma
chinery. When their day has passed
they are cast aside into the junk heap
of darkness. and hardly are they ever
given a friendly recognition. even by
those who prospered over their clever
ness years ago.
They nave all one their way, and
they carry with them many happy
recollections of the days when the law
dispensers were more liberal in their
views and when personal liberty was
no joke, n may these days return
