S. H. Philbin '10, left halfback, hits the line very hard and is a consistent player. He shows great ability is squirming through small holes and keeps his feet well. His defensive work is fairly good.
H. M. Wheaton '09S., right halfback, runs hard and is a difficult man to tackle. In the minor games he has shown great ability as a drop kicker. He has been out of the game most of the season on account of injuries.
E. H. Coy '10, fullback, is one of the longest punters on the field today. He runs with tremendous power in the open and hits the line hard in the scrimmage. He is one of the surest tacklers on the team and rarely, if ever, misses his man. He has lately, however, shown a tendency to fumble punts, this being the only weak feature of his playing.
A. Haines '10 L.S., left end, plays a very fast, strong game. His work with the forward pass and ability to follow the ball, make him a valuable man for the team. He is not good at dodging interference, however, and has frequently been found for short gains.
J. F. Johnson '10, quarterback, while not as good as Corey in mixing up his plays, surpasses him in ability to run back punts. He is particularly skillful with the forward pass, rarely fumbles and his work in helping the man with the ball is excellent. He does not always use good judgment in the selection of his plays.
F. J. Murphy '10, halfback, is a very good broken field runner and picks his holes better than any other back. He is a cool, heady player. His defensive work is of a high order.
J. W. Field '11, fullback, is weakest in his lack of experience. He hits the line hard and is not easily tripped up. He has been improving steadily in his ability to run back punts through a broken field and in the general handling of the kicks. His work on the secondary defense is good
