...smashing on their own. The sixth game went to Dana and Lowrey and the seventh to Pearson and Bundy, making the score 5-2. The losers then braced, and forced the score up to 5-4, although twice within a point of losing the match. Pearson and Bundy, however, ran away with the next game on the latter's service, Pearson winning the final point with a pass on Lowrey's back-hand...
...another hard practice yesterday afternoon. Work began with individual instruction instead of the usual tackling dummy drill. Coach Dewey took charge of the linemen, paying special attention to finding holes and charging low, while the ends and backs worked with Coaches Parker and Chatfield.

Both took many chances, Potter making four forward passes and Sprackling six, and each was successful in half the attempts. Both quarterbacks played...
