how TO play the individual positions,
and confidence. If Coach Hinkey has
made any important mistake, last year
and this, II has been, in our opln-
ion, in not surrounding himself with
older men who could supply these
things. He and the captain have now
remedied this mistake together, as will
be seen from Captain wilson's state
ment elsewhere in this issue.
There is therefore some light IN the
darkness, as the team this week has
shown the good effects Of the change
Under the new plan there will be no
single head coach, but Coach Hinkey
will act on the board Of coaches, under
the traditional Yale plan.
The affair illustrated again, we
think, the lack OF organization and dis

properly distributed, experience an'
confidence would be brought into each

the exception Of Avila, is in good con-

weeks ago, has recovered and will play
on Saturday if called on.
The team seems to be III for q good
battle on Saturday Although X. y.

season, the team from Troy has always
proved itself dangerous against Union
and good battle is expected. No let
up in practice has been allowed by Fred

will put its best team in the field.

the face Of all this the coaches expect
a hard game with the Wolverines. The
Cornell came is one Of the hardest, #
not the hardest, games on the Michigan
schedule, and they have bent all efforts
to develop an eleven which viii put up
creditablc fight. THIS was especially
brought out by Al Sharpe tonight, who
said: 81 expect Michigan to put IN a
better game than they did against
Syracuse last week.
Dan Reed said that the team had i'm
proved consistently since the Harvard
game, while Van Ormsn said the eleven
was at least 80 per cent better than IT
was last year at this time. Final home
preparation consisted of light signal
drill, which was held early, SO that the
men could get ready for the evening
train. The combination which will
start the game with Michigan will be
as follows;

feature Of the practice Of the Brown
football squad here to-day. The line
men on the varsity were shown how
to break up the opposing line and the
backs were given considerable instruc-

the end OF the practice it was evident
that this class of work had had its
effect, the backs making long gains.
Purdy, Prosser and Murphy ran tho
varsity team, the first named doing
the best work. Two sets Of backs
were used, one apparently being as
good Ne the other.
