Yesterday's football practice, though it was a very long workout, was not particularly hard. Team A had a light scrimmage when it was lined up against the second team for about ten minutes, and was then given a long signal drill, when team B was put in its place. During team A's scrimmage one touchdown was scored, E. L. Casey '19 carrying the ball over the goal line for the regulars early in the practice. The second team was able to prevent a score by team B, and succeeded in making a touchdown on a forward pass...

There were no opportunities for long runs or spectacular plays, but two or three pretty forward passes were successfully completed. Though the work was light, the men were kept on the go all the time and not allowed to slow...
