With two exceptions Coach Fisher lined up the same team which started against Georgia Saturday for a stiff signal drill and dummy scrimmage yesterday afternoon on Soldiers Field. Fitts, who had an afternoon class, and Grew, who is out with a slight cold, were the only regulars who did not appear in the Stadium. The former's place at left end was taken by Crocker, while the latter's guard position was filled by Hubbard...
...Haughton '99 was on hand yesterday to help with the signal drill and dummy scrimmage as was L. H. Leary '05, head coach in the first half of the 1916 season. The latter devoted himself mainly to the work of the ends. This is a vital point with the coaching staff at present as Crocker is still out with an injury and will probably be unable to start tomorrow. To fill his place both Janin and Fitts have been tried this week and it is probable that the latter will get first call for tomorrow's contest...
...signal practice yesterday, Team A lined up as follows: Fitts and Macomber, ends; Hobson and Kane, tackles; Brown and Grew, guards; Bradford, center; Buell, quarterback; Owens, Jenkins and Rouillard, backs...
...from those who began against the Purple last week. Captain Kane and Tierney will play their first game of the 1921 season at tackle, displacing Henry and Lockwood; Macomber will take Kane's place at left end; Bradford will fill in at center for Tierney; Buell will be the signal-caller; while Jenkins and Gehrke have been assigned to the half-back positions occupied last Saturday by Fitts and Chapin. Hence it can be readily seen that Coach Fisher's renovation has been far-reaching...
...yesterday's pre-game signal practice and dummy scrimmage Coach Fisher sent Fitts back from end to halfback. On account of his recent injury Gehrke's physical condition does not make it certain that he will be able to play through the entire contest this afternoon. If needed, Fitts will be available to take his place in the backfield. He has still much to learn at his new end position and Coach Fisher will probably not risk putting him in at wing today...
