...condition of several of the members of the University squad was still causing apprehension and uncertainty yesterday afternoon. Several members of the squad appeared at practice in their street clothes. Among these were Eastman, Hobson, Hammond, Jenkins and Coburn. Although McGlone reported dressed for action his only work out consisted of easy signal practice and a little kicking. Whether or not he will play in the game on Saturday is still a matter for speculation...

Holquist fumbled and Eastman recovered the ball on the blue's 20 yard line. The University lost the ball...
Until the closing moments of the game the offensive play of the University was a great disappointment and the backfield never seriously got underway. Hammond, who was overworked, frequently received the ball seven or eight yards behind the line and raced toward an end with an imposing interference before him. But when he got to the line some lone, blue shirt was always waiting,-and another down was gone. Howe usually plunged into the back of one of his own forewards, who had failed to make the called for hole. Cheek, the other half, played hard, but with the single...
