...practice Tuesday MacLaughlin was hit on the head by a pitched ball. He has been out of the practice for the last few days, but has recovered sufficiently to go on the trip. O'Connell has been filling his place. Brown has been tried on first base this week in place of Briggs and will very likely start the season in that position. The only other change in the team since the first days of outdoor practice has been the substituting of Dana for Haydock in left field...
...first week was spent in light practice to get the squad into condition. Special attention was given to falling on the ball, starting, passing and tackling the dummies. At the beginning of the next week the whole squad was divided into four scrub teams with regular captains and coaches. Certain plays were given the teams, and the first scrub game was played on April 7. For the first few days the games were short, but they were gradually made longer; yesterday the scrimmage lasted 45 minutes. The practice during the past week was some-what hindered by the failure...
...Daly '01 was on the field again yesterday coaching the quarterbacks. The Seniors and coaches are trying to organize a "graduate team," which will play in the practice games. This team will probably begin practice early next week. The teams lined up as follows: TEAM A. TEAM B. F. deH.

...Advocate this week is readable, not distinguished. It might as well have been published in Tucson, Arizona, as in Cambridge. Have the undergraduates, one wonders, no ideas to express on college questions of the hour, no tales to tell of undergraduate life? An issue which would discuss these things would be of extreme interest to graduates and surely would be to undergraduates as well. They are not different from the rest of the world--they, too, like to read about themselves
Spring football practice has been held regularly for the past week. Last week the work was entirely confined to the fundamentals, starting, tackling, kicking, and falling on the ball. There have been a number of Senior class coaches on the field, each of whom has had charge of a division of the squad...
