There have been many surprises in the individual playing of the veterans on the team. Of these Daly alone has done as well as last year. Besides working the team well, tackling and running brilliantly, he has developed an ability to drop-kick which seems to show up best in an emergency. Hallowell and Campbell have not put enough life into their work and are not as reliable as last year. At the tackles J. Lawrence and Eaton have worked very hard and form the strong places in the line. The four centre men, Barnard and Burnett, Lee and Sargent...

Shortly after the next kick-off Stillman ran twenty yards on a fake kick and Daly got twenty-five yards more on a double pass.

...Barnard, but they were not very successful in opening holes. Graydon played his position well, and on the first kick off made a good run of forty yards in an open field. Ristine followed the ball accurately and made some good tackles, but was slow in getting down under kicks. Sawin and Campbell stayed out of the practice to rest. Gierasch was on the field but did not play. Hallowell did a little running and tried some drop-kick goals, most of which were successful...
