A part of the time devoted to practice yesterday was spent in tackling the dummy. The 'Varsity then lined up with the second eleven for ten minutes. The playing was loose, though fast, the most noticeable fact being a decided falling off in form, on the part of the second. Brown played his poorest game of the season. At full-back, he muffed punts continually, once allowing the 'Varsity to regain the ball on two successive kicks, which brought it from the centre of the field to the 5-yard line. It was virtually through their kicking and Brown's poor work that the 'Varsity succeeded in pushing the ball over the second's line for three touchdowns.

The Freshmen relieved the second in the last half, and showed great capabilities by their exceedingly snappy style of play and Reid's excellent punting. They rushed the ball with energy, and entered into the play with plenty of spirit. Twice, Reid punted over Warren's head; and before the 'Varsity had wakened up they were forced to punt to Reid who made a fair-catch on the 30-yard line. Daly missed an easy goal from the field. Ellis and Kendall both ran well, and it seems to be an open question as to whether it would not be advisable to try some of these backs on the 'Varsity squad.

For the first five minutes the ball was always in the 'Varsity's territory. The first touchdown was made by Parker on an end run of 80 yards. On the kick-off Daly ran 25 yards. Then the 'Varsity braced up and between Wheeler and Parker nearly all of Reid's punts were blocked. The ball was worked steadily to the 10-yard line and Cozzens covered the remaining distance around left end, for the second touchdown.

The 'Varsity and Freshmen lined up as follows:
