...away from the bridge. A series of three shots will be fired for a starting signal. Between the first and second shots there will be two minutes, and between the second and third one minute. The third shot will be the signal for the start. Referees will be stationed along the shore, and bumps will be signalled, either through a megaphone or by pistol-shot.

On the second, Osborne was transferred from tackle to halfback and in addition to his excellent onside kicking, was the best ground gainer for his team...
