 Cambridge, Nov. 15.-Harvard's complete varsity rush line was out again on Soldiers Field yesterday aft ernoon, and put in solid days work in opposition to the first substitute team. The scrubs were not admitted to the stadium field, but kept plugging away on the Yale formations and plays which they are expected to try out against the varsity tomorrow.

The line from tackle to tackle, including Eastman Hubbard, Clark, Grew and Bunker, was coached continually on its charge, and much time was spent working out the assignments on plays.
