...University football team will play its sixth game of the season with Springfield Training School in the Stadium at 3 o'clock this afternoon. Springfield was defeated by Yale on October 9 by the score of 17 to 0, and, although out-classed. In other departments of the game, got off some excellent forward passes in the second half. Through their lighter line and around their ends, Yale was able to gain pretty steadily, the latter, however, were able to run back kicks for a total gain of about 300 yards. Last year the University team defeated Springfield...

...Yale football team played a tie game with West Point last, Saturday at West Point, the final score being 0 to 0. Although Yale's offense was stronger than the Army's, the latter's defense was so good that Yale could make no consistent gains. The result was that a punting contest ensued between Coy of Yale and Beavers of West Point, in which Coy averaged slightly better than his opponent...
...fairly encouraging, on the whole, when the fact is taken into consideration that the team is still in a very unsettled condition, due to many petty injuries and the necessary experiments to find suitable linemen to fill the places of Osborne and Kersburg of last year's team. Although many of the men are being tried out in new positions from day to day, the team is slowly rounding into shape...
