Indiana-Tufts Game Hardest On I. U. Schedule.

Bloomington, Ind., Oct. 18.—Long, hard scrimmages and stiff signal drills are on the program for Indiana University’s football team, which is working out daily in preparation for its great intersectional gridiron battle to be played with Tufts at Indianapolis Oct. 28. Beginning early in the afternoon the gruelling practice continues until it is necessary to use the giant electric reflectors which have been erected at the field. The work-outs include speedy signal practice, work on the tackling dummy, getting down to punts, charging the line and making interference. Open, _ play generally is getting special attention because of the lightness of the Indiana team and the great defensive game which its eastern opponents have been putting up this year. Both Harvard and Princeton have failed to cross the goal of the Medford players and the only way Indiana can hope to cum the trick is through the headiest and fastest sort of open field running and forward passes.
