Left Tackle Thayer

CHAPTER XI
12/27

Right wheel, march! Oh, dear, Penny is at it again! And I had hoped for a quiet evening!" The middle of the week Mr.Boutelle arrived and the second team got down to business.

The training-table was started, and including Coach Boutelle was made up of sixteen members.

"Boots" presided at the head and Captain Turner at the foot, and Clint was sandwiched in between Kingston, who played guard, and Don Gilbert, a substitute guard.

The team had its own signals now and practised on its own gridiron each afternoon until it was time to scrimmage with the 'varsity.

Clint was first choice right tackle, with Robbins close behind and hard after him.
