There was a decided improvement in the work of the Freshman squad. After dummy tackling and snappy signal practice, the first two 1920 teams were scrimmaged against each other. Coach Rollins was very much pleased with the showing of his men in the most satisfactory and encouraging day of practice since the squad was first formed. An unfortunate injury, however, marred the practice. R. B. Quintana '20, a promising candidate for centre, received a double fracture of the ankle, and had to be removed to Stillman Infirmary. J. E. Bruce '20, an end, whose leg was hurt in Wednesday...
...Robinson '18, quarterback, who won his "H" last fall, has regained his standing at the college office, and will start the game tomorrow. This backfield combination of Robinson, Bond, Horween and Flower has been working together ever since the first signal practice was held soon after practice began this fall, and they should carry through the plays today without a hitch.

...slowest man in the world could make a 40-yard run in every play if the rest of his team would hold their opponents long enough." And it is a very easy thing to conceal. Coaching from the side lines, beating the ball by unfair use of a starting signal, talking to opponents (which is prohibited by rules only if abusive or insulting), and arguing with officials, are in the same class; they all have an important result on the outcome of the game, and they can only be stopped by voluntary abstention. "The football player who intentionally violates...
