Freshman football had an auspicious opening yesterday when fifty-five candidates for the 1923 eleven reported to Head Coach Dr. Paul Withington '09. A short talk was first given the players, outlining the season's work, after which an went through some of the more elementary work, ten yard starts, passing, and falling on the ball.
G. L. Batchelder '19 was in charge of the ends, F. C. Fishback '19 coached the line men, and Withington put the centers and backs through the preliminary workout of the year.
The figure of fifty-five men is larger than that of the first meeting of the last Freshman squad, 1921, when only twenty-eight men reported at the first call, but is considerably smaller than the squad of seventy-eight which reported for the first year eleven in the fall of 1916, the last regular football year.
Thirty-two 1923 men reported yesterday for the manager competition and will commence work today.
