...formations, Coach Haughton has a formidable task. As all of the men have been play- ing football on the regimental and brigade teams since the beginning of the season, however, he can omit much of the fundamental and early season work. Some of the squad were members of the Depot Brigade team which held the informals to a scoreless tie last Saturday...
With important games scheduled for this Saturday, the informals and Freshman football squads spent yesterday in correcting the errors made against the Camp Devens Depot Brigade and the Worcester Academy elevens. Both Coach Rollins and Coach Wallace prefaced work on the field with blackboard talks illustrating weak points. The Freshmen on the field spent the greater part of the time in perfecting defence formations against the forward pass, as this was the chief defect in the work of the team on Saturday. With the informals in the Stadium the light workout consisted principally in punting for the backs, and breaking...

Neither team found opportunity to rush the ball across the goal line, and all attempts to score were limited to drop kicks, two being tried by the informal, and one by the Army team. Line plunging without material gain made the total yards rushed by both sides small. The informal, however, gained nearly three times as much ground as the Depot Brigade, but at critical moments their attack failed. The soldiers...
Early in the last quarter Grady broke through the informals' line, blocked Horween's kick, and secured the ball for the Depot Brigade on the 40-yard line. Harrison on the next play circled left end for 15 yards, bringing the ball to the informals' 25-yard mark This gain was lost, however, when an incoming substitute broke the rule about talking to his team mates before the completion of one play. Harrison then failed to score a field goal from the 45-yard line...
