...preliminary work was very short, consisting of a 15-minute signal practice for the University team, and a short trial of forward passes. Burr and Foster gave the half backs practice in catching punts, while the linemen tried passing the ball on the run. Orr, who injured his foot slightly in Monday's practice, will probably be in condition in a few days. Burr kicked all four goals from touchdowns for the University team, and Adams kicked the one for the second eleven...
Taylor secured the ball on Burr's kick-off on his five-yard line and punted back to Newhall on the 45-yard line. After the second team had secured the ball on a forward pass, Taylor punted, Newhall downing the ball on the 55-yard line. Foster made five yards and Kennard added 15 more on a forward pass; then, after a penalty for holding, the first eleven lost the ball on a pass, regaining it in a few plays on Taylor's punt. With the ball on the 40-yard line Burr returned the punt, Macdonald recovering...
...work on some new plays. The guards, under Coach Marshall, and the tackles, under O. F. Cutts L.'02, who has been appointed a coach for the rest of the season, were given practice in their positions. Newhall, Hall, Starr, and Taylor practiced drop kicking for some time, while Foster, Burr, and Kennard punted to the half backs in order to give the ends experience in running down under the ball.

...punts and place kicks were excellent. After the secret practice the first squad was divided up into two elevens for signal practice and work on the forward pass. All sorts of line rushes were tried, and later a few goals from placement behind the line of scrimmage. Lockwood, Foster and Newhall rushed the ball well against a team of substitutes, and worked the forward pass to excellent advantage. The teams lined up in secret practice as follows: FIRST ELEVEN. SECOND ELEVEN. Miller, l.e. r.e., Kennard Osborne, l.t. r.t., Robinson Burr, l.g. r.g., Warren Parker, c. c., Dore Kersburg...
