LIGHT FRESHMAN PRACTICE

1916 Team Had Signal and Kicking Drill on Soldiers Field Yesterday.

Work for the Freshman football squad was very light yesterday. About fifteen minutes were spent in tackling the dummy, followed by a punting and drop-kicking drill. The ends showed encouraging speed in getting down under the punts, which were kicked in good form. A high wind, however, prevented much success with drop-kicks.

The two teams then went through a long but snappy signal practice in which the plays were run rapidly and smoothly. Finally, teams A and B lined up against each other, spending about twenty minutes in walking through formations. The afternoon concluded without scrimmage of any sort; it is probable, however, that today will see a much more strenuous practice.
