...yesterday's practice the University eleven played with less life than usual. This was owing mainly to the fact that a large number of players were allowed to take the day off. Hallowell, Swain, Boal and Reid were all absent from the practice. Although Gierasch did not play yesterday, he will be in condition for the West Point game. Reid will also be out in a few days. Boal, however, injured his leg in the Amherst game and will not be able to play for a week...

In every case the Amherst back was downed for a loss and often with such force that he dropped the ball.

Warren at fullback and Sawin at quarter are of course only temporary changes, because of slight injuries to the substitutes for those positions. Parker played with much spirit throughout the game and bucked the line with his usual fierceness. In the last five minutes he gave way to Brayton, who is little slow for a half-back. Kendall played a dashing game in the first half, scoring in the last minute of play from the forty-five yard line. His substitute, Ellis was a valuable ground-gainer...
...line were not forced to play hard football, but there was no reason for not blocking more kicks. Boal played his usual hard game until he was replaced by Hollingsworth. Rainsford played in his first game this season and showed his quickness by breaking up a false-kick play. The tackles were not tried enough by Amherst to show whether they had made the desired improvement...
