...scrimmage in yesterday afternoon's practice was, like that of Tuesday, devoted mainly to developing the defensive work of the first team. The second eleven was given the ball time after time in the first team's territory, once gaining the 5-yard line on a forward pass, but they were unable to gain although given several extra downs. On one occasion Nourse got the ball on a fumble and ran fifty yards for a touchdown. The first team linemen showed improvement on the defensive, and not only broke through the second line at will, but spoiled almost all attempts...

The ball was frequently given to one team in the other's territory to work up the University team's defensive and offensive strength.

...first team was given the ball only a few times, and was coached principally on the defence, particularly on blocking forward passes. The first touchdown was made after Fish had blocked Gilbert's punt on the second team's 25-yard line.

Corbett made a pretty run around right end for ten yards, and after White had made three yards on a line play, Forchheimer was pushed through centre for a touchdown. Burr kicked the goal. After the second team had gone...
