...given the preference over Hamlin. the former is promising but has still a great deal to learn. Rockwell has been given a trial at quarterback, and while imparting considerable speed and life to the team is very erratic in his handling of the ball. VanderPoel. last year's substitute fullback, is doing well at right halfback, as is also S. Ward. Both are valuable because of their kicking ability. Of the candidates for fullback Bowman is still on the hospital list and Farmer appears at present the leading candidate for the position...

Marshall occupied left guard, Kernan went in at left halfback and Graydon at fullback. None of these men, however, played in the line-up against the second team. Tenney and Meier were the only other backs who were not allowed to play. Both are a trifle lame and will be given a chance to rest. Burgess is recovering from tonsillitis and will probably...
...tried at quarterback; for besides Marshall there is no suitable man for that position in case Daly is again injured. Clark was out for the first time in over a week and played in the line-up. After the regular practice Stillman and Matthews were put in at fullback and end, respectively, in the game between the University substitutes and the third eleven. This was the first playing in which they have taken part but both did commendable work...
