MURRAY AND SWIGERT HELPING COACH 1921 FOOTBALL SQUAD

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Over 65 members of 1921 reported for the second football practice of the season yesterday and were put through a stiff rudimentary drill by Coach Wallace. The men were divided into small squads and under the tutelage of the volunteer coaches were given the usual practice in falling on and runing with the ball and then the entire squad received its first taste of tackling the dummies. The candidates for quarter back were coached separately by E. G. Swigert '15, a former University quarter-back, and W. J. Murray '18. Murray, who has been granted a furlough from the Naval Reserve will have permanent charge of the quarter-back, and E. L. Casey '19, half-back on last year's University eleven has volunteered to assist in the coaching of the backs. The back-field men were given a short practice in punting for the first time this year and some promising material was uncovered.

About 25 men reported for the informal University team and were put through the same early season routine work by the coaches. More men are needed to report for this team to make it a success and as the men are assured of good coaching only the material is needed to develop a strong team.
