...joined in the play with such spirit that there resulted an exhibition of fast, effective football which is not generally seen until much later in the season. Except for the total absence of mass plays, the style of play under the new rules did not appear materially different from that of last year. there were no trick plays and but little punting...
...been doing excellent work up to this time. Parkinson, of last year's Freshman eleven, has been used with some success in Shea's former position at tackle. For halfbacks, Schoelkopf 2L., a former Cornell fullback, Randall '05, and Nesmith and Nichols of the Freshman team last year, appear to be promising candidates.

The acting of the members of the company in the parts other than these four was well-rounded and consistently good; the choruses, even though somewhat lacking...
