omitting scrimmage practice yester-
day. Head Coach Tad Jones drove the
varsity eleven through an hours sig
nal rehearsal and a brief scrimmage
with the third team.
No actual foot ball has been or
dered for the regulars since Satur
days games with West Point. and the
coaches, under advice $ by Trainer
George Connors, have adopted the
policy of a single days scrimmage
this week. This will be held today
and will be the only direct prepara-
tion for the game ON Saturday with
the University of Maryland. which
defeated Penn, 3 to o, last month.
No changes were ordered in the
varsity lineup, and the coaches ap-
parently have abandoned their usual
procedure of reorganizing their team
two weeks before the Princeton
game. Practically the same combi-
nation will be used against the Grim
son and the Tiger which subdued the
Army last Saturday.
