During the past week the team has been given much practice on defensive work in anticipation of Yale's heavy attack and at last the defense seems satisfactory. The men play fairly low in the line, and the secondary defense is better than it has been at any time this year. This was well shown in the last open practice where the runner of the second eleven was often thrown back after getting through a hole in the line...
...first Weld Freshman crew rows a fairly low stroke but is well together. When the stroke is hit up there is a tendency to rush the slides. The crew is slow at starting, but improves as it settles down. Their order is: Stroke, Macomber (capt.); 7, Minturn; 6, Thanisch; 5, Adams; 4, Lindsley; 3, Chadwick; 2, Krumbhaar; bow, Fairchild; cox., Swan...

Parker, right half, is very slow in recovering fumbles and poor in interference. His running with the ball is at times good, but he fails to keep his feet when tackled
