Changes in Yale Line-Up Were Result of Long Conference Signal Drill and Line
 Bucking Yesterday,
TOM SHEvLIN IN TOWN
Helps Frank Hinley Teach Coy and Haines How to Play End--l'red Daily to Do Punting in
 Baclsileld.

There was no real tryout at Yale field yesterday afternon to test the shift in the makeup of the team and the first scrimmage of the men in their new positions will come to-day, But the men went out to work with q will in the long signal practice, and if 1t is necessary for return to the old po- stions it will not be because of lack of hard work on tho part of the men,
 The shift of Coy from lubbock to end was the greatest surprise of all. Coy has been first-class fullbaclz and was chosen on many of the Al-Amorican teams last fall, the first year that he was eligible for varsity work, On his freshmen team he played fullback He was at end in the signal practice yes terday and was coached by Tom L. Ehevln who has come from Minnesota to be with the Yale team the rest or the season.
 Coy's bunting has been one of the features of the Yale game, but with him out of the backfeld there Is still a first class punter there, Fred Daily who has taken Brides place at right halfback Daly played four years at Andover Field who is being tried in place of Coy has been doing well lately, but 1t is believed that he is only In the position for few days and that with the return of Wheaton further change will be made in the backfield and either Philbin or Daly drop back to full.
 The only men who were not shifted were the guards, Andrus and Goebel; the center, Riddle, and the left half back, Philbin. Logan is so light that he will not be regular end, but will be first substitute. The regular man will be Tony Haines who played q first class game through the second half on Saturday. Ted Lilley will take Hobbs place at tackle but 1t is ex- pected that the old Dartmouth man will win his place back L,illey Is very aggressive and played well against West Point, but Hobbs Is heavy and has he'd c long experience. Brides has never had experience at tackle, but played in the line two years ago at guard. He was too slow for an end, but with little coaching should make an ideal tackle. Yesterday Head Coach Biglow and Ralph Bloomer gave him some individual coaching which was followed by an hour of line buck ing after the signal -drill,
 Ali. Riddle held his position at cen ter. His playing Saturday was very satisfactory to the coaches and there is no probability of his being dis placed.
 Hopkins has removed his conditions !n Shelf. and is new eligible for tho team. He Is fast and clever quarter back and with Johnson Is the first choice for the position. In the signal practice yesterday Johnson was the manA
 The only scrimmage at the field yes terday afternoon was between the sec- ond and. third teams. This lasted about 20 minutes and there was no scoring.
 There was no lack of coaches at the field yesterday afternoon, and most ot them were at the conference which do- cided the changes. Besides Tom Shev- lin there were at the field Frank Hin key, Frank Butterworth, Jack Ows- lev. Clarence r. Alcott. Ralph Bloomcr Al. Sharpe, L. H. Biglow, Tad Jones and Walter Camp.
