...pointed out when the University's friends were being solicited in 1905, the great gifts to the University from time to time are almost all for the profession schools or for special purposes in the University. It is true that the University capital fund now amounts to over #30,000,000, but of the income from this fund only $425.000 is annually available to meet the College salary and expense item of $1,020,000.

The Tiger backs, unable to cope with Dartmouth's individual playing, succeeded almost every time in breaking up the Blue forward line when it threatened. Most of the playing was in Yale's territory, and only the brilliant work of York at goal kept Princeton's score down to one tally. Yale's first goal, scored by Armour, was a lucky one, and their winning goal was the result...

...first; Snell at second; Johnson at shortstop; Kinney at third, and Shepley in the outfield. Unless Legore can make good at third, which was a weak place in the team last year, Johnson will probably be moved there from shortstop, since he can play the third base position almost as well as his regular place. If Legore doesn't play at third he will of course take back his regular position at shortstop.
