...than either of the other two on the defense and in getting down the field under punts. Wigglesworth, who played in the latter part of the Yale game last year, will play quarterback today. His ability is unquestioned and throughout the season he has shown skill in varying the attack and inspiring the team to do its best. In generalship he is a shade above Potter, who, however, has the better of Wigglesworth on taking risks. Both are fairly efficient at drop-kicks and can be depended upon to score inside the 25-yard line. Although Wigglesworth will start, Potter...
...have the usual snap and dash, and was not up to standard in defensive play. Deming punted well, and the touchdowns were made by consistent gaining. In the next game Yale defeated Holy Cross by the score of 12 to 0. Yale improved to some extent in versatility of attack, but played with little vigor. Many forward passes were successfully executed by both teams. Corey and Deming did the scoring, which, however, was by straight playing...
...slight advantage, due principally to the effective work of the ends. In the second period, Philbin and Pfeiffer rushed the ball to Carlisle's 17-yard line, when Philbin tried an unsuccessful drop-kick.

After an exchange of punts the half ended with the ball in Carlisle's possession on their own 45-yard line...

Frothingham, is here and in excellent shape. Wendell will probably start in Frothingham's place, as the latter has a slight attack of jaundice. Corbett and Leslie are expected to make up the rest of the back-field. Frothingham arrives tomorrow; also coaches Learn and Withington, who will join the squad at Yale Field...
...game of a week before. A week later Williams was defeated by the score of 39 to 0. It is doubtful if a stranger contest was ever played in which splendid strength and decided weakness were shown by the same team. Coached to play high and diagnose the opponents' attack, the Dartmouth line was frequently pushed backward for long gains by the low-charging Williams' linemen. It is also true that the score does not nearly portray the relative strength of the two teams, as Williams was by no means weak, but the possibilities of the new game were never...
