...defeated 6 to 0, losing by two goals from the field. In that game the play was marked by the inability of the Law School men to handle the University team's kicks. The game proved, however, that the Law School's defence was practically impregnable. The line is exceptionally heavy and strong, while the backfield, although light, is nevertheless fast and should be well protected. The average weight of the line, from tackle to tackle is 193 pounds, which is 10 pounds more than the average weight of the University men filling the corresponding positions...

...Seniors received the kick-off on their own 25-yard line, and by straight rushing carried the ball to the middle of the field, only to lose in on a fumble. Before the period closed, however, the Juniors were able to make one or two substantial gains. They lost the ball on a fumble at the beginning of the second period, and an indecisive punting duel followed, in which the Seniors had a slight advantage...
...made by the Juniors on forward passes, neither side was able to advance the ball. The Seniors scored the only touchdown in the final period. With the ball in the middle of the field, the Juniors partially blocked a kick, and Murdoch, recovering the ball on the 30-yard line, ran the remaining distance for a touchdown.
