Nesmith, Brill, Hanley and Frazer did not report owing to recent slight injuries, and Nichols, Oveson, Reynolds and Osborn, who have been out of the game for the past few days, although on the field again, did not engage in the scrimmage...
...practice of the University football squad yesterday afternoon was marked by energetic playing and was extremely encouraging. The absence of Captain Hurley, Oveson, Brill, Montgomery and Guild from the line-up, however, owing to slight injuries, somewhat weakened the opposing teams.

...down the field under the punts was noticeable. There was much fumbling in the handling of kicks, which was probably largely due to the heavy wind. There were again numerous changes in the line-up of the first eleven: Meier was put in at left tackle in place of Brill, McFadon was moved over to right guard to replace White, and Wilder went in at left guard. Blagden was shifted from left end on the second to right end on the first...
