...football squad of 25 men arrived in Boston yesterday evening, and are now staying at the Woodland Park hotel in Auburndale. The men are in excellent physical condition with the exception of Captain Main, who will not be able to play in the game tomorrow because of a wrenched shoulder. The team will probably have only light practice today at Auburndale...
...tackled and the ball "held," that is, one or more players of the opposite side get their hands on it. Then comes the most distinctive feature of the game, the scrimmage. The eight forwards on each side lock arms over the ball, while the two halfbacks oppose each other shoulder to shoulder. An arch is thus formed and the ball tossed in. The players may then do one of three things, push straight ahead, "screw the scrum," or heel the ball out altogether. In either of the first two cases, the object is to break away and dribble the ball...
...Burr, Starr, Kersburg and Hall were given a rest. Cavenee was out again and took a few easy laps. Knowlton was also out running around the field. Guild was out in football clothes, and will be able to play again in a few days. The injury to Paul's shoulder is so serious that he will be unable to play again this year.

This injury will prevent him from playing for at least two weeks, Guild, who replaced him in the second half, could nearly always be relied on to make his distance. Just before...
...halfback. Knowlton has been added to the list of injured and will probably be out of the game two weeks with water on the knee. Although it is not quite certain how seriously Nesmith injured his leg, he will be unable to play for some time. Newhall's bad shoulder will prevent his playing for at least a week. The first touchdown in the scrimmage was scored by the substitutes after a very few plays. Shohl received the kickoff on the 27-yard line, and after rushing the ball only three yards the second eleven was held for downs...
