one o'clock
During breakfast disabilities were inquired after , men who were known to have nerves were questioned as to their night 's rest , and orders for the day were given out . This man was instructed to see the doctor , another to interview the trainer , a third to report to the head coach . The meal over , save for a half hour of practice for the backs behind the gymnasium the men were free to give all their energies to lessons , and so hurried away to recitation hall or room . At one o'clock the team assembled again for lunch , with books in hand , and at break-neck speed devoured the somewhat elaborate repast , each man rushing in , eating , and rushing out , with no attempt at sociability or heed to the laws of digestion . Afternoon practice was at four o'clock . Individual practice was followed by team practice against an imaginary foe , and this in turn gave place to a line-up against the second eleven . Two stiff twenty-minute halves were played .
