...Juniors defeated the Seniors in the first game of the class football series yesterday afternoon by a score of 10 to 0. The Juniors were superior both on the offense and on the defense, and prevented any systematic gaining on the part of the Seniors, while they themselves, by a tackles-back formation, were able to gain almost at will.

This lack of fighting spirit was noticeable especially in the half backs. Frequently on line plays they failed entirely to help each other through holes, and this lost good opportunities to score. The interference ran fairly smoothly, but was so slow...
