Coach Hawley gave the Green teams long workout this afternoon, but did not order a regular scrimmage. Both teams A and B were given an apparatus drill, and then took part in a long signal practice. Lane and MacPhail, powerful plunging backs, showed considerable speed, and Dooley was successful in completing forward passes. Coach Smith has been drilling a team on Harvard plays, and these will probably be used against the University team in a stiff scrimmage tomorrow

Wadsworth '29, followed in the stated order...
...about 3,200 ft.," Lieutenant Curtin later told the coroner, "and obtained a speed of about 70 miles an hour. At this point, one of the wheels (the right-hand one) of the 'dolly' collapsed. ..." To spectators it seemed that the "dolly" twice bumped heavily, failed to leave the ground. Captain Fonck said afterwards: "I intended to stop the plane but I was afraid it would tear into the crowd of automobiles. . . ." The crippled monster reached a gully at the runway's end, turned a cartwheel, right wing down, and vanished from sight...
