with the rain over the training quarters
of the Yale football squad at the Wood
land Park hotel today. The only de-
feats which the Blue has suffered, this
season, have been on muddy fields, first
at West Point and again at New Haven
against Princeton, and Yale's style of
play is admittedly to be at serious dis
advantage under these conditions.
The day was an uneventful one. The
rain made 1t necessary to forego the pro-
jected practice in the Stadium and me
squad was taken instead to an old stable
adjoining the hotel where they were put
through signal quizz and other mental
practice. After luncheon the squad sep
arated according to their individual
tastes. some bowled, some played bill
lizards and still others played the piano
The advent of the rain, with the conse-
quent muddy condition of the gridiron
within the Stadium, led the coaches it
is understood, to consider a revision in
the lineup which will start the game for
Yale. AS a result Philbm probably will
start the game at fullback instead Of
Dunn, the latter player having been par
tieularly at a disadvantage under the
similar conditions which prevailed at
New Haven. last Saturday. Otherwise it
is probable that the team will line up as
in the Princeton game.

night, after another talk with the coach
es. The morning will be spent leisurely
until luncheon, following which the squad
will depart for the scene of the fray IN

It will not be possible to obtain a
game with any member of the Yale

gard to the matter, in order that he nigh,
be able 10 discuss the situation with Thorn

All of the roads objected both TO the ma

scented the most economical solution of the
problem provided that various improve

were opposed to the REIMBURSEMENT of
