1908 Lacrosse Practice and Plans

The Freshman lacrosse squad of about 25 men has been practicing since March 6 under the direction of W. D. Hutchinson Sp., formerly of Oxford. The material is on the whole promising and fair progress has been made. Beginning today, when outdoor work will start D. P. Penhallow, captain of the University team in 1903, will assist in the coaching. The squad will be divided into teams as evenly matched as possible, which will play against each other until the class games begin. First and second teams will then be picked. Later, games will be played with the freshman teams of Columbia, Stevens, and probably the University of Pennsylvania.

More men are needed, and it is not yet too late to come out. New men should report at 4 o'clock today at Soldiers Field, where for the next few days a special squad will be conducted for their benefit.
