Kirkland threatened repeatedly but could not punch across, a touchdown, although one offensive drive penetrated to the Lowell 7 before bogging down on a fumble. Blocking for both sides was shabby with Kirkland having a little the better. Kirkland, playing without the services of a number of squad members, unveiled a fine running attack but could not connect on their passes, while Lowell boasted a good punter in lineman Bill Sutton...
...Adams, resulted in a 6-6 deadlock. Played in a cold drizzle, the game saw the Gold Coasters dominate play over a Kirkland eleven again hampered by the absence of several regulars, who were prevented from playing by examination schedules. After a scoreless first quarter, Kirkland punched across a touchdown early in the second period, only to have the Gold Coasters tie it up shortly after on a Coburn to Livermore pass. The navy outfit scored on a sweeping end run from the Adams...

Hastily Senator McKellar rose to explain that he had intended to make a speech later on, expanding his ideas. But when it came to islands around the Panama Canal, he was for taking them all. And it might be, he added, that the U.S. would need some islands farther north. He just wanted to assure the distinguished Senator from North Carolina that the resolution could always be amended to take in more territory...
