Coach Schrubb emphasized the importance of hard training in the beginning. A man who trains four days a week from the very first is in far better condition for a race than the man who trains two days a week at the start, and every day the final week. Steady work and strict training are what bring success...
Neither side scored in the first scrimmage, nor was either goal threatened. Both teams played hard and fast and each seemed perfectly able to gain through the other's line. Fumbling was much in evidence, and the play ragged and disjointed at times. Several good formations were used that will develop into sure ground-gainers with sufficient practice.

The plays were all simple with the exception of two forward passes, and the lack of variety did not give them a chance to show their real ability. The defense used during yesterday's game, four men in the line and the ends playing out, was moderately successful, but was hardly given a fair trial...
