Tomorrow.
The squad wont through, another ex
cellent practice last night. The work
was snappy and fierce, and the men
entered into the game with the proper
spirit. To any one who has observed
the practice during tho season a great
improvement In the work Is very ap
parent. Tho team is now getting Into
good form ;f the plays are more clock
like than ever before. Every man gets
into every play and the- result is splen
did team work.
It Is indeed gratifying to anyone In
terested in football to see the players
exhibit such spirit. Throughout the
season the men have played together,
but as Thanksgiving day approaches
they work harder and the team be
comes more and more like a machine.
After the usual signal practice the
first and second eleven lined up for the
scrimmage. The 'varsity kicked off to
tho scrubs, who were unable to make
their -five yards. The 'varsity then
took the ball and made a touchdown
with little difficulty and repeated the
trick several times before practice
closed, notwithstanding the good work
done by the scrubs.
At first Mickel, Bender, Bell and
Benedict played behind the line. They
were finally replaced by Brlggs, Nico
demus, Englehart and Thorpe. New
ton played right tackle on the "varsity,
while Wilson and Mason alternated at
left tackle. Tobin and Hunter alter
nated at right guard. Follmer and Cor
telyou played the end positions.
Victor Englehart, who has been do
ing good work on the second eleven,
was given the 'varsity signals last
night.
The 'varsity may practice tomorrow,
but it is not known at present whether
the team will practice, or rest. Only
a few days remain before the North
western game and- Coach Booth may
give his men some work Saturday.
The second team, under the command
of Captain Newton, will contest for
honors on the gridiron Saturday with
tho Omaha Medics. It will be a return
game, the first game having been
played at Omaha October 25th, result
ing in a score of 1( to 0 In favor of the
Becond oloven. Both are strong teams,
being about evenly matched in point of
weight, and the game promises to be
a good one. The scrubs have tho ad
vantage in superior training and coach
fvr and will undoubtedly run up a safe
$tre against their opponents. Their
line-up is not as yet determined, but
tho men who have been working out
against the 'varsity every night will
go Into the game. Newton, Hummel,
Hickle, Johnson, Eager, Myers, Melick,
Prltchar-d, Englehart and Morris will
probably play.
' Michigan will play Oberlin College
