Daniel F. Holder of New Orleans, Louisiana, was elected to captain the 1924 football team at the close of yesterday's practice Holder played four year on the St. Mark's School eleven, which he led in his Senior year. He is the most promising line-man on the squad and has held down one tackle berth throughout the season...
With Wednesday's scrimmage against Boston University, a manifest change was observed in the Yearlings. The return of E. L. Gehrke to the backfield was apparent as soon as the team line up. Kehrke's splendid kicking and slashing drives supplied the missing factor in the Freshmen's offiense. With Gehrke and P. Jenkins, a strong running attack is fast shaping, guided by J. J. Lee, whose judgment in Wednesday's scrimmage showed vast improvement. With this formidable combination appears L. Lockwood, a new-comer raised from the ranks. Lockwood first showed up in the second team's scrimmage with...
Another interesting shift in the line-up was observed at left end, where R. Pantaleoni seems to have usurped the position from W. E. Gates, regular wingman.

Most noticeable of all, however, was the decided difference in the Freshmen's work as a team. Interference was more certain, more linesmen crashed through on the offense...
...races were all fairly close, but the brush between 1923 B and 1922 B and the struggle between the Smith and Standish crews were particularly interesting. 1923 B managed to nose out its rival by a quarter of a length, while Smith just edged over the line inches in front of Smith in 6 minutes and 1 second, the fastest time of the day. Neither 1923 A or 1923 C reported in time for the race, though the former turned out to pace University A for a mile. The 1922 eight easily took the race for first class crews, defeating...
...seems that the University would be able to send its full strength against the strong Princeton eleven on November 6. Sedgwick, one of the most dependable men in the line, and considered by some as a contender for a position on the All-American Team, who has been suffering with a twisted neck ever since the Holy Cross game, will in all probability he in a condition for active practice the first of next week. Although he has been on the side-lines for a while, he has kept in close touch with the team and will be able...
