...Seniors came out for the first practice yesterday. Their work was similar to that which the Juniors had the day before. The twelve men who reported are as follows: D. Scott, A. Sturgis, E. Cook, E. W. Howard, T. M. Shaw (temporary captain), E. Heard, R. B. Wiggin, H. W. Welch, R. Pulitzer, H. S. Coffin, A. F. Gotthold, C. M. Brown...
...Sophomore class is the last one to put a team in the field. A meeting was called for last night to elect a captain in order that practice might begin today. So few men attended the meeting, however, that the election could not be held. It was decided to call another meeting, to take place in Apley Court Gymnasium on Thursday night. Preliminary practice will begin the day after...

There are a good many men now with the Freshman football squad who will later try for the weights...

Although the men are picking up points every day from the coaches, they do not seem to apply them in the line-up. In Dibblee's absence, J. L. Knox '98 and J. A. Sullivan '97 looked after the backs and the punting. Except for some work of Reid's after the baseball practice was over, the kicking was decidedly mediocre. Sawin and Hallowell have good form...
