...football squad was given a short, light practice, consisting of the usual signal drill and a 15-minute line-up. There was no scrimmage, however, Team A and Team B each having the ball for a short time in order to try out plays. Although both lines tried to break through, there was no tackling nor hard blocking of interference. Following this, Potter, who has returned to the squad after Wednesday's absence, did some punting with Tryon and Felton, while Lewis practiced drop-kicks from the 35-yard line...
...stroke of 27, is not well on its keel. Many individual faults are apparent, and the body swing of the crew is poor.

And it might be well to offer a prize to the man who can cover the greatest amount of wall space with his club shingles. What ho, the fair...
...competition will begin tomorrow and will end about May 27, with a break during the April recess. This is two weeks shorter than the usual competition. As this is the last competition open to the class of 1912 and the first for men of 1913, it is hoped that as many as possible will avail themselves of the opportunity...
