...coaches are satisfied with the work of the secret practices, and, with the entire squad in good physical condition, the outlook is encouraging. The new signals, which were tried for the first time on Monday, went fairly well yesterday, but the players are expected to be entirely familiar with them before Saturday. All the trick plays are developing well and add materially to the first eleven's offense. The defense yesterday was again effective and now needs further strengthening in individual points alone...
...practice yesterday was hard and satisfactory. In spite of the slippery condition of the field, no one was hut. The wet ball, however, aggravated the old habit of fumbling. Daly and Hallowell were again in the game, but did not play throughout the practice. Fincke again played well, but is of course below the standard of Daly. The whole team tackled poorly, and failed to follow the ball, and the backs were still slow. The forwards, however, started more quickly than on Monday. The line will soon be in its final shape with Boal able to play. He will take...

...football game between the two lower classes yesterday afternoon was closer than was expected. The Freshmen, aided by a strong wind, scored twice in the first fifteen minutes, and secured a lead of twelve points that the Sophomores could not overcome. During the rest of the game 1903 was on the defensive, and by the splendid punting of Stillman, prevented their opponents from scoring. The latter, by vigorous rushing with the tackles, often ran the ball well into the Freshman territory, but lost it by fumbling at critical times. The 1903 team was able to make few gains by rushing...
...grades: expert, first class, and second class. In order to obtain the grade of expert a perfect score of 25 must be shot. Two scores of 15 straight entitle the candidate to the first class grade, and three scores of 20 out of 25 qualify for the second class. Yesterday Blake, Mallinckrodt and Phelps won the second grade medals...
