 TO START FOR YALE VS CORNELL

New Haven, Conn, Oct. 26-(UP) Yale today wound up its practice for the Cornell game Saturday with Coach Howard Odeli still juggling his first team to find out where the returning veteran players will fit in. Several former players have re- joined the squad since the last grid encounter on Oct. 13.
 Odell ran his squad through de- lenses to be used against Cornell plays with particular attention to the expected Cornell forward passes. While Cornell pinned It's hopes for the game on It's aerial attack, and Al Dekdebrun's arm which has ac- counted for 506 yards gains in passes this season, the Ellis rely on their speedy backs and rockllke forward wall.
 A newcomer to the Yale squad was Frank De Nez0o, Hartford, who has played at Wesleyan this season and was transferred to Yale after the Navy V-23 unit was discontinued at Middletown.
 Proud Of Fritz
 Yale's additions are linemen, and one of them, Will Overlook, Q 1922 reserve, might be at center in the place of bulky Marty Dwyer, also a 1942 team member, who was sched- nled to take over the assignment but who received bad knee injury this week. The Bulldogs are proud of their new 2ll-pound guard Fritz Barzilauskas, another discharged flier, and this aWterbury boy will see some service at Q guard station. Also returning this week was Bolt Elwell, e 1o42 tackle, who has been converted to @ guard and who will be available.
 Odell made Q backfield shift this week replacing Tommy Scannell at the fullback slot with Vanderveer (FIandy Vandy) Kirk, who had pre- viously played at both halfback terminals; while at the halves will be the veteran Bill Penn and Buzzy Cher. Cher, who calls the Yale plays in the huddle returns after two- week respite caused by a leg injury and the Eli camp has confidence that Buzzy can pilot drives which will cross the double stripe.
 Upset Last Year
 Yale and Cornell first met in 1889 when two games were played both of which were won by the Bulldogs. The modern series was renewed In l936 when Yale scored a 23 to 0 triumph and repeated this the fol- lowing season with Q 9 to o victory. For a three-year period from 1940 through i042 Cornell posted victories, but last year the Bulldogs upset the experts with stunning IS to 2 upset.
