Brickley Back on the Field.

no chance for this, but Brickley will
be hard man to handle IL he is re-
fused permission to step into the Yale
game a couple of times to try for field
goals. BriclSley walked about the field
and did little coaching. He will be
down every afternoon now, and will
direct the backtield work. Former
Captain Storer was also out coach
ing yesterday. The football teams of
Harvard and Michigan practiced only
u few miles apart for the big inter-
sectional contest in the stadium.
From both camps came encouraging
reports.
Michigan Is Ready.
The Michigan squad arrived short
iy after noon and went at once to
their quarters at Auburndale. Later
they accepted the offer of the use of
the Waltham High School grounds.
and there Hughitt, hailed as one of
the leading quarterbacks In the coun-
try, drove the eleven up and down the
field in fast signal practice. His in
jured elbow still is stiff and 1t is con-
sidered likely that he will confine
most of his activities Saturday to
directing the team. Splawn, tho
powerful fullback, who has been
Icalled the Western Brickiey," on ac-
count of his drop-kicxing ability, en-
tered into the afternoons workout
with vim, Notwithstanding his In
jured leg still was somewhat tender.
Coach Yost said that the team, after
its long series Of mishaps, was COM
ling along well, and that the contest
would be real game"

Harvard Strengthens Attack.
! The Michigan team, while 1t did
not show very much to worry the
! crimson scouts In last weeks game
| against Syracuse, Is, however, ex-
| pected to be better at Cambridge and
| particularly II the brilliant quarter
| back, Hughitt. is able to play. The
coaches are not worrying so much
about the chances of their team
against the Wolverines, but are TAX
ing mighty good care that the play
ers do not get overconfident and enter
the match in any such frame of mind
as that with which they went in
against Penn State last week. At that
Harvard will prepare for Michigan,
whereas 1t took Penn State as 1t
came-and the Hollenback outfit came
too good for comfort. This week
Harvard has been getting down to
work on its defenses for the Tigers a
week from Saturday, but today will
work in anticipation of the plays
expected from the Wolverines. Har-
wards own attack Is sure to be better
than In any of It's recent games, and
siderable success In the Crimson's
kicking game.

Michigan Has a "Sore Spot"
Tomorrow at Cambridge, the Uni
versity Of Michigan football team will
try to settle disputed touchdown of
thirty-three years standing with
Harvard. The famous down" has
been buried and resurrected time
without number, but just the same it
Is a tender subject with the wearers
of the Maize and Blue, even to this

was defeated, to 0. Those are the
cold facts. but lot of oratory has
been expended to prove that Mich
igan made a touchdown of its own In
the memorable struggle, but failed
to get credit for it.
Pulled on Old One.

and I. coach. did not spring any
thing new. but played old-fashioned
football to perfection. His team had
Yale so much In the air and were so
clever as individuals that they
pulled the old ''shoelace' trick for
a touchdown against the Ellis. This
is the trick where man lays out
on the side lines tying his shoe
string and gets a forward pass.
Harvard Rooters i'm Danger.
J. r. Murray, acting chief of the
Cambridge police force, has an
nounced that he will arrest any
Harvard student who tries to march
to the Michigan game Saturday
carrying a crimson banner. If the
student body persists in its determi-
nation to parade to the stadium in
q body 1t may be that the Harvard
eleven will find itself without root
ers when the game begins. At
