...team D were very evenly matched, but the playing on both sides was loose and ragged, the backs and ends being especially weak. The practice was concluded by a game between teams A and B.

It is hoped that the first out-down of the squad can be made by the end of next week. The first line-ups will begin today...

Team A then advanced the ball for some distance through Eaton, who did not play strongly. Team...

In this way they gained no advantage from their single strong point cv-- speed, for the Senior team was the heavier, and their team work was in no way broken up by the rough playing. Had the Freshmen combined team-play with their speed, they might have broken the Seniors' defense...
