...Goodhue, quarter-back, is new to the position, but has shown such speed, kicking ability, and willingness to learn that he may yet prove to be a good man for the place. He is erratic and weak in tackling, and consequently will need much coaching. Marshall, quarter-back, seems to lack the ability to drive his team at top speed.

Moving Thayer from quarter-back to substitute right end and putting Dodge at left tackle, are the most recent changes in the line. Back of the line the attention of the coaches is directed to the perfecting of formation plays. A tendency of the backs to go too far out on end plays and to break apart on centre plays is the most conspicuous fault. For full-back the candidates now are Skilton and Myers with the chances slightly in Skilton's favor. Philips, who at first was effective in this position, has lately taken a slump. At left half...
