...does not surprise us to learn that the general uneasiness and unsettlement of working habits which prevailed in the College last spring, during the early months of the war, appears to be giving place to a steadier gait.

Amherst was the first to tally after 5 minutes of play on a shot by Jones made possible by weak defensive work. During the early part of the contest, the University could not seem to find its gait.

Shortly afterward, Phillips scored again from a half-scrimmage. Then...
