YALE END MAN is INJURED
o p. Fitzpatrick Twists His Knee
During Signal Drill.

NEW HAVEN, Conn, Nov. 0.-Yale and
Harvard foot ball players met today In
the dining room at the New Haven house,
where the squads had gone at noon for
luncheon. The Harvard backs and kickers
had come down from Pennington to prac-
tice for IN hour on the Yale gridiron. There
was no opportunity for more than an eX-
change of greetings, as the Harvard men
were hustled to the oval. Their practice
consisted OF kicking at all angles and tries
at goals from different parts of the field,
The idea was to familiariZe the back field
players with the grounds and also the turf.
The Yale squad went out for light scrim-
mage and signal practice at 2 o'clock and
this practically ended the hard training OF
the squad,
John r.. Fitzpatrick, Yale's most agrees
sive end, was seriously injured today and
had to be taken to the infirmary. In the
signal drill Fitzpatrick jumped to get a
high forward pass and fell on his knee,
The knee pan dropped and he also twisted
the knee so that he was unable to walk.
The effect of the injury to Fitzpatrick was
so depressing that the coaches decided not
to have a scrimmage.
A long signal drill followed. with Burch
and Logan at ends. The close of the hard
training finds the Yale men in good condi-
ton. No more changes in the lineup are
anticipated.
