West Point, y. Y, Nov. 10. Il was

Army's gridiron practice to-day. Fifty
minutes were spent in scrimmaglng

after Hodgson, Hoge and Benedict had
fought their way through stiff opposi-

score; Benedict added the goal. Ne

attack, needing mainly work on de-
fensiye play. Because OF the fact
that Hardwick may at an time be
called into the backfeld again, the
coaches are determined 20 get the best
from the end rush material.
Wallace, who has been out Of the
lineup ever since he was hurt early
IN the Michigan game was back at
centre to-day. There is really little
to choose between him and Bigelow,
but Bigelow also is the first substi-
tute for tackle, and probably for
guard. His all-round efficiency may
prevent him from making regular
place on the team.
The scrub has been spending a lot
of time on Yale's plays and turned
some OF them loose to-day. How well
they went was not divulged by the
coaches. The varsity will begin
working up its blackboard defences
against Yale at once, and, while there
j. a game with Brown at the end of
the week, there will be little done on
Soldiers Field from now out except
that work which has direct bearing
on the game in the Yale Bowl a week
from Saturday.
