...work of the University football squad in secret practice yesterday was hard and snappy, but not especially encouraging. A strong second team was line up to develop the offense of the first eleven, which advanced with difficulty by short gains, and was held twice for downs by the second. Mills played a good attacking game. On the second team, Hanley, Nesmith and Sperry were very steady as the secondary defence. Cunniff took part in the scrimmage, and Montgomery, Blagden, Derby, Meier and Paul were on the field doing light work. Parkinson, who has a slight cold, and Parker, whose ankle...
...secret practice yesterday the University eleven was hampered by rain, and the condition of the field made the footing very insecure. There were only two rushes in the scrimmage, and the best of the practice, which lasted but a short time, was devoted chiefly to punting. Both the first and second teams gained on exchanges, when aided by the end. On the last play McFadon scored touchdown for the second team, receiving the ball on the first eleven's 30- yard line after Shurtleff had blocked a kick by Leary. There was no other scoring. The line...
...University football squad in secret practice yesterday played longer and harder in the scrimmage, and showed more fight and life, than on Wednesday, but fumbled entirely too often. Randall at left end on the first eleven was strong on the offensive. Neither Pope nor Meier engaged in the practice on account of injured knees, and Oveson, Montgomery, Cunniff and Barney, although on the field, took no part in the work. In singal practice the first team was lined up as follows: l.e., Rendall; l.t., Carr; l.g., Parker; c., Parkinson; r.g., Squires; r.t., Derby; r.e., Shurtleff; q.b., Kernan; l.h.b., Nichols; r.h.b...
...third day's secret practice of the University football squad yesterday was very ragged, the second team making consistent gains whenever it had the ball, and holding the first eleven twice for downs. Much of the poor work of the last few days, however, has been caused by the absence of many of the best players from the line-up on account of slight injuries. The following men were given light work and sent around the field, but did not enter the scrimmage: Montgomery, Mills, Derby, Parker, Squires, Hurley, Oveson, Means, and Leary. On the second team Randall did some...
...work of the University football squad on its second day of secret practice was decidedly poor. In the line-up between the first and second elevens the second made two touchdowns, while the first was able to score but once. C. W. Randall '05, substitute halfback and end last year, came out and was given light work, and Parkinson was put in at centre for the first time this year...
