...return of both Fitts and Black to the line-up, Coach Wachter will be able to start a much stronger five than was the case against Rhode Island State Tuesday. Yesterday afternoon, however, Captain McLeish was given a rest because of a slight cold, and while he may be unable to play the whole game, in all probability will be in shape again by this afternoon...
Because of the rest afforded the quintet by the holiday on Wednesday, Coach Wachter omitted the usual light practice of the day before a game, and yesterday afternoon sent his first team against the yearling five at the Freshman Athletic Building in a practice contest.

Tyson, Sipp, and Love have all been staging a strong fight for the center position during the entire season but the first...
