Hermann Olcott resumed charge of the

Weeks put up a steady game all the time.
AS a whole, however. the varsity was
slow and the lighter players on the SCRUB
were able TO gain consistently, while they
held the varsity when small gains would
have brought a first down. There was
considerable fumbling on both teams. and
the new formations which the coaches are

football coaches did little else with the
team this afternoon except run it through
formations which are being developed for
the Indian game. a week from Saturday,
with Captain Miller shifted once more
from right end TO quarterback. 1t is true
that the coaches fear the Pennsylvania
State team, which comes here on Satur-
day, but they fear the Indians much more.
The signal drill was continued until sun
down, and then the varsity went against
the scrub for practice in both offence and
defence. The new plays did not go par
ticularly well, owing TO the uncertainty in
their use by the varsity backs.
There is no chance left for Hutchinson

every practice. It has now been decided
to give Heilman chance at halfback on

such regulation and supervision of college
athletics as may be necessary to maintain
