After a week and a half of steady drilling in fundamentals, Head Freshman Coach A. E. French '29 has cut his squad down to between 40 and 50 men. Considerable time has been spent on blocking, tackling, charging, and dummy scrimmage, and there has been also a great deal of individual instruction, the groups of linemen, ends, and backs working out with their respective coaches. Signal practice has been stressed, and as yet there have been no long scrimmages.
In preparation for the Andover game, which is to be played away from home this Saturday, the first meals were served at the training table in Smith Halls yesterday.
The teams lined up for practice yesterday as follows:
Team A: Ends: Barton, Borden. Tackles: Hardy, Finlayson. Guards: Kidder, Harter. Center: Almy. Backs: Wells, Walcott, Gibson, Bailey.
Team B: Ends: Saltonstall, Heath. Tackles: Esterly, Francisco. Guards: Hagemann, Alschuler. Center: Hallowell. Backs: Cleaves, Cassidy, Stone, Adams.
In addition to the game at Andover on Saturday, there will be contests with Exeter, Worcester Academy, Vermont Academy, Harvard Seconds, Dartmouth Freshmen, and Yale Freshmen in the order named.
