...forward pass which crosses the goal-line is legalized, provided it does not go more than ten yards beyond it. This feature, it is hoped, will give the offense a better opportunity to score; first, by providing them with a new weapon of attack inside the 20-yard line, and second, by preventing the defense from concentrating its forces upon the line of scrimmage, when under its own goal-posts. The forward pass when used in mid-field may exceed 20 yards in length...
Added to the University men's impregnable defensive work, which was even better than in the Princeton game, there was a concerted speed and team-work in attack, and an ability to carry the puck out of the corners which showed an almost unbelievable improvement over the work of a week ago. Furthermore, each member of the team seemed to outdo himself individually. To mention the men who played excellently would be to mention all seven.

During the latter part of the scrimmage, substitutes were sent in. Although covering in about their goal well, they played on the whole a rather ragged game...
