to Barre with the Norwich freshman
team yesterday, spoke briefly on the
Norwich team this winter. Practice
has only been going on for a few days,
so that a definite idea OF the ealibre

their schedule two games had already
been provided for with Vermont. One
game PLAYED at Burlington had been
definitely arranged for March IL; the
other would be played at Mortified
probably earlier in the season, but no
date has been set. Within the next
two weeks series of interelass
games at Mortified win furnish ex-
element aplenty. These class games
are expected to help the coach much
in picking his varsity material.
