With a 40 minute scrimmage the informal University team and the Freshman team lined up against each other yesterday for the first time. For the 1921 squad it was the first real football in their history, but the informal University had had the benefit of a work-out Wednesday. For the opening twenty minutes football was played as in a regular game; the latter half was spent in close instruction by the coaches.
Play began with the ball in the University's possession on its 20 yard line. Rushes by A. Horween '20 and J. G. Coolidge '20 brought 7 yards, and then F. C. Church '20 punted to the Freshman 30 yard line. An exchange of kicks together with a few line plays left the ball with the University in the middle of the field.
Rushes by A. Horween '20 and B. S. Blanchard '20 with end runs by F. C. Church '20 brought the informal team to within 20 yards of the Freshman goal where an incomplete forward pass lost an opportunity to score. At the end of the 20 minute period the ball was on the Freshman 10 yard mark with no score by either teams. From that point the ball was shifted from team to team at will by the coaches. Both teams played well for so early in the season. The informal team's offense and defense was strong.
versity is to be started this morning at the Union. It is announced by the management that a game between the United States Naval Reserve of Portland and the informal University team will be played November 3 at the Stadium.
