Football Notes From Andover Practice Talks
Andover did not play Tech on Clover field yesterday as faculty blocked the visit. Tufts and the B A A will hold a practice game on Clover this afternoon with Pinkham at quarterback likely to play that position for the B A A. Ed Beals may join at end. Captain Stevenson is noted as the best on the Hopkinson rush line. Cornish of the B A A aims to arrange a game with Chicago A A and bets the Unicorns will win. Waters and Anthony of the B A A reportedly played for West Roxbury A A against Andover under assumed names Palmer and Reed, which displeases amateurism. Dudley Dean denies plans to join Chicago A A due to business commitments.
