...years. He was followed by the Hon. M. J. Murray, a member of the Massachusetts bench, who emphasized the importance of early association and opportunities, in the development of the strength of character necessary for upholding morality and civil liberty. He laid great stress on the adoption of the right attitude by members of the University. Mr. Murray, like his predecessors, expressed a profound admiration for President Eliot, and felt a sincere gratitude for the liberal attitude he has always maintained...
...tried out yesterday, Grant and Brennan showed up especially well. Grant was right with the ball all the time, was down under kicks with the ends, and was always at hand to pull along the man who was carrying the ball. Brennan, who has only recently come to the front as a candidate for fullback, besides making many substantial gains through the line, showed considerable ability in running back the ball on kick-offs. The tackle positions were well cared for, Burr, Fish, and Inches all being instrumental in breaking up end plays before they were under...

There seems to be plenty of men for the backfield positions but, with Wendell out of the game, the best combination at present...
...problem seems to be narrowing down pretty much to a question of the development of a fast, scrappy centare, a reliable right tackle and the improvement of the ends. The candidates for end are better than for several years back, but they seem to be almost uniformly show at following the ball. That there will be all varieties of the new football played on Soldiers Field this fall is already apparent from the few games played and it is safe to assume than the possibilities of the eleven will be fully developed along these lines...
