Several new men were tried out on the first eleven. There is still a great need of halfbacks. Under the direction of Coaches Marshall and Knowlton, the first team line men were given practice in blocking and starting, while the secondary line men were shown the proper positions to be taken for the same kind of work. There was a long punting practice for the backs...
