BLACK JERSIES IN VOGUE AS CUT COMES

Abundant Backfield Material Held for Further Observation--Coach Knox Starts Immediate Work With Seconds

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Black jersies appeared on Soldiers Field yesterday for the first time this fall following the cut in the University squad which shaved down the red-jersied candidates to 65 and sent over 75 men down to the Second team field to continue their work under Coach Knox.

Coach Fisher retained only 35 linesmen but kept 30 backfield candidates a larger number than have survived the initial cut in recent years. The additional men were kept due to the uncertainly as yet as to the probable personnel of the backfield, and the University coaches are taking no chance of passing up any good backfield material.

Ten quarterbacks were retained of whom only three have had any previous University squad training. Six of the ten weigh under 150 pounds.
