The boys have been practising
steadily and yesterday ran up quite
a score on the second team. The prac-
tice the last few weeks has been very
strenuous, tackling, sprinting, block
ing, work on the ,tackling dummy,
signal practice, and scrimmage and
the boys are "up and at 'em" all the
time. There is some rivalry for the
positions of guards and tackles, but
the ends and backfield have been
about decided on.
The team is quite heavy this year,
the line averaging 1856 and the back
field 1856. The plays are being per-
fected and drilled into the locals by
Coach Smith and doc" Diedrich. A
strong schedule has been secured and
some fast and interesting games are
