There is plenty of power in Coach Fisher's first-string backfield and he has at his disposal excellent substitute material. The one big trouble has been the inability of the eleven to push the ball over when within comparatively easy scoring distance. In every contest to date the Crimson has swept down the field in beautiful form only to be kept at the last minute from making a touchdown on account of a fumble, a penalty, or a pure let-down in the offensive strength.

Coach Howe paying special attention to the in board work, and leg work, striving to perfect the final push with the legs-the biggest aid in making the boat run well between strokes...
