...game throughout was an exhibition of hockey as it should not be played. In the first half particularly, the University forwards would not keep together and the defence made errors of judgment that might have turned out fatally. The outstanding feature of the evening, however, was the all-around playing of Captain Morgan and Percy for the University and of Captain Schoen for Princeton. The former were aggressive when the rest of the Crimson team was sluggish and ragged, and the latter was responsible for all three of the Tigers' goals...
...first half was marked by the failure of the Crimson to take advantage of its opportunities. Although the puck was almost continually around the Tiger goal for the first ten minutes the wings missed pass after pass when they were free and could have had easy shots.

Coach Winsor gave the regulars of the University hockey team a short "dope" talk before practice yesterday and then worked them for 20 minutes in shooting and passing. He paid particular attention to team play around the opposing goal and tried to develop formations intended to afford the maximum scoring possibilities. The schemes worked out fairly well in practice, several goals being made, but during the scrimmage they were not as effective, for the men frequently forgot them...
