...prettiest work was done by Gonterman. He made three long runs of over sixty yards each. He followed his blockers closely and broke away from them only at the last moment, when there was no alternative. His dodging was quick and puzzling and he ran with good speed. Hoag, Beale and Corbett did well. Foster made one bad pass, but otherwise put up a very satisfactory game. His best work was the quickness with which he got the ball in play and his interference...

Upton and Corbett both played on the graduates' team. Upton is not yet at home at end and was frequently fooled by the interference. It was nothing, however, but what a little coaching and experience will remedy. Corbett did some beautiful kicking and ran well, but showed once or twice a dangerous indecision in his playing.

Fairchild was driven to work in order to regain his position, while Foster worked hard to remain on the first. Foster did well on interference and ran his team well. Fairchild showed more grit and determination than is usual...

...play good football. Their work was far inferior to that of the preceding day, and they offered little resistance to ninety-four. The whole line, with the exception of Barton, was weak, especially the centre men, who were utterly unable to hold their opponents. The backs fumbled and ran poorly, disregarding whatever little interference was formed for their benefit. This miserable work, especially in the line, may be accounted for by the absence of the regular men, but this circumstance is by no means a reasonable excuse and is itself proving to be a serious obstacle to the success...
