1923 Football Candidates Hold First Real Scrimmage of Season

Coach Withington '09 lined the 1923 football men up for the first scrimmage of the season this afternoon. The squad was divided into six teams: A, B, C, D, E, and F. Each pair fought a short dummy scrimmage preparatory to a real scrimmage lasting about five minutes. Team A lined up as follows: Hartley, l.e.; Ladd, l.t.; Reynolds, l.g.; Forbes, c.; Wood, r.g.; Fiske, r.t.; Thayer, r.e.; Rogers, q.b.; Dempsey, l.h.b.; Chapin, r.h.b.; Churchill, f.b. During the early afternoon the men were given tackling practice at the dummys. Then the backs and ends ran through signals and forward passing. Linesmen practised starts and "breaking through."
