94 IN FRESHMAN FOOTBALL SQUAD

Twenty Additional Men Reported for Workout Yesterday.

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Twenty new Freshmen joined the football squad on Soldiers Field yesterday afternoon, swelling the total to 94 candidates for the 1920 team. So far Coaches W. Rollins '16 and O. G. Saxon '14 have not given the men any very stiff workouts, but have kept them at work in the more rudimentary forms of practice--falling on the ball, charging, waddling, starts and tossing the medicine ball. A squad of a dozen kickers is working out under the direction of the coaches but although there are some promising punters, no one has yet developed any degree of certainty on a drop or placement kick. A few minutes on the dummies, half an hour of starts and wadding, another 30-minute period of falling on the ball, and a little work with the medicine balls at present constitute the extent of practice. The coaches are planning to give the men some signals within a few days, and to start scrimmaging as soon as they are in condition for it.
