...knowledge of the game, in speed and aggressiveness on the offense, in dash and reliability of his defensive play, and in the unconquerable spirit with which he led his team.

This scrimmage amounted to a punting contest, in which the second eleven did the best work, making a net gain of over 60 yards in some half dozen exchanges. The fast work of Pope, left guard on the second, in getting down the field under the punts was noticeable. There was much fumbling in the handling of kicks, which was probably largely...
