...annual dual shoot between the Harvard and Yale Freshmen will take place on Soldiers Field on the morning of the Yale game. It will be a 50-bird match between teams of five...
Aside from the valuable experience which the players and coaches of the Harvard team may have received from the West Point game, the football management must have been impressed by the admirable thoroughness with which every possible provision was made for the comfort of the crowd. There were not more than ten thousand spectators present, but the attendants could have handled many times that number had there been seats enough, so perfect was the organization of affairs.

During the first half, the first team played listlessly, but in the second period, urged on by the coaches, it began to show signs of spirit, and, before the end of the scrimmage, had regained much of the dash and fight which it showed in the Exeter game last week.

During the latter part of the game Minot scored twice more, the second team weakening under the steady rushes of the first team backs. Long played in the scrimmage for the first time since his injury in the Brown game...
