THE 1922 SEASON WENTY FGUR candidates representing the advance guard of the I Infantry 1922 football squad reported for their first practice on September 4th. They took the field clad in track togs in an effort to combat the fiery tropical sun which burned from the clear skies of Georgia. Condition was the paramount object of the Infantry coaches, and for the Hrst few Weeks the Doughboys were kept busy getting legs, backs, arms and Wind into shape and reducing convex Waist lines. Every effort was directed to develop a team which would be able to go the limit every second and the full sixty minutes of the grid game. With the arrival of the student classes about the middle of September the size of the squad gradually grew until some sixty-five men Were daily reporting for practice. Captain Milburn, head coach, arrived from Platts- burg and took charge of the Workouts assisted by Captains Weems and Legge, line coaches, and later by Captain Lambert in the backheld. There Was a unity of purpose and enthusiastic in- terest Which had not been present the year before. Various methods of play acquired under various coaches and Well drilled into the heads of the individ- ual players were submerged to suit the methods which the Infantry coaches adopted and this Was done With a cheerfulness that was splendid. lNfIature men sought to bring back the days of youth and to overcome the effect of years in an effort to place a Winning Infantry varsity in the field. Stud- ents and permanent personnel ungrudgingly made sac- rifices of time and energy. Bit by bit condition came, plays Were acquired and individuals molded into a team. With games With four major elevens the Infantry faced the hardest schedule in its history and for that matter in the en- CAPTMN LEGGE ' - END COACH, 1922 tue South' The team as a Whole was lighter than in 1921 but it was more evenly balanced. A splendid lot of first line and reserve material gradually de- veloped.
