eleven o'clock
`` Let 's go out and see what fellows have come back . The entire squad should be here by this time . '' The next morning the returned football squad were all out on the athletic field , and everybody was busy with preliminary practice in passing , kicking , tackling the dummy and running with the ball . At eleven o'clock the entire fourth class were assembled on the field . Each one of these three hundred young men was looked at and questioned as to previous football experience , and about forty of them were advised to come out for practice . Of these forty , ten appeared to be likely candidates and were told to find football uniforms , and to practice for the time being with the squad . The most promising of these ten was Bligh , and this promise did not suffer from excessive modesty on the part of Mr. Bligh .
