Over 65 members of 1921 reported for the second football practice of the season yesterday and were put through a stiff rudimentary drill by Coach Wallace. The men were divided into small squads and under the tutelage of the volunteer coaches were given the usual practice in falling on and runing with the ball and then the entire squad received its first taste of tackling the dummies. The candidates for quarter back were coached separately by E. G. Swigert '15, a former University quarter-back, and W. J. Murray '18. Murray, who has been granted a furlough from the Naval...
...this fall in Newell Boat Club today at 3.30 o'clock. At this time all candidates for this year's Freshman squad, as well as any members of the three upper classes who wish to row in interclass or interclub contests, should report. The meeting will be addressed by Coach William Haines, who has coached the University crews for the past two years in conjunction with R. F. Herrick '90; and by H. L. F. Kreger '16, coxswain of the victorious Henley crew in 1914, and coach of last year's Gore Hall crew...

...track and cross-country candidates, Coach Edward Farrell will be at Soldiers Field this afternoon at 5 o'clock, and all from the Freshman and other classes who wish to take advantage of this fall training are to report at that time. Cross-country men are particularly wanted. In this sport also, it is hoped that informal races will be held with teams in the vicinity of Boston. The great use which has been made of distance runners in the French army as agents de liaison demonstrates the practical value of this branch of sport...
Crew men from the Freshman and upper classes will not get into action until Thursday at 3.30 o'clock. Coach William Haines will be on hand to instruct oarsmen, and there will be interclass and interdormitory races, the extent of these being determined by the number of men who come out. Much can be accomplished toward a successful Freshman crew next spring, if this fall rowing is taken hold of, and its value toward University material in the event that intercollegiate athletics should be resumed next year will be very great. Crews will this year be sent out from Newell...
