...just ahead. When the punters were only fairly evenly matched, as between Harvard and Yale, the final score stood 0 to 0. Princeton, the 1911 championship team used the forward pass practically not at all, but depended upon an impregnable defence and quick following of the ball. To break the deadlock and thereby balance offensive with defensive play, the Committee has just drawn up a new set of rules which radically changes the game for spectator as well as player...
...that a black list relates the names of 52 men who have failed to return the books even within half an hour after the required time.

When the forwards and the defence were unable to break up Princeton's attack, Gardner, playing a phenomenal game at goal, in all but two cases prevented a score...
