The opening practice of the Freshman football squad saw 138 candidates for the team on the Freshman field yesterday. Of this number 28 were ends, 25 guards, 19 quarterbacks, 15 tackles, 11 centers and 40 backfield men. This exceeds by 21 last year's record breaking squad of 117. Today and tomorrow should add considerably to this number as a great many more men will probably report at today's practice.
Light conditioning work comprised the activities of the afternoon. The squad was put through a few starts and waddling exercises and given a short practice at passing and handling the ball. This program will remain in effect throughout the entire week with possibly a small amount of practice in blocking and breaking through on Friday.
