...University hockey team by playing a wonderful defensive game and by showing unusually brilliant offensive work defeated Princeton on the St. Nicholas rink, New York, last evening by a score of 3 to 2. Not only did the University forwards show great improvement in the offensive game, but their defensive work was exceptionally good, especially in the way of covering Baker, Princeton's most brilliant player, and in breaking up play near Harvard's goal. When the forwards and the defence were unable to break up Princeton's attack, Gardner, playing a phenomenal game at goal...
...beginning of the second half the Princeton forwards again gave the University defence a severe test, but owing to the effective covering of the University forwards about the goal and the brilliant work of Gardner, a score was made impossible. Again after about ten minutes of this the University attack braced, and again Huntington scored, making a long shot before he had reached the defence, which went between point and coverpoint and past Kalbfleisch. The remainder of the game was marked by a desperate rally on the part of the Princeton forwards, which was stopped by an equally desperate stand...

The other two scores were made by Huntington on long shots from the side boards...

The irrepressible spirit of this simple-hearted creature of nature puts to confusion the false logic of artificial society in a series of startlingly novel and highly entertaining situations, worked out with brilliant dialogue through three acts of continuously sustained interest. Mr. Faversham is singularly successful in sustaining the sense of the unhuman throughout the piece. It is an unusual play with an unusual amount of good-natured comedy...
...appear in advance of any other claimants. Fisher has not fallen off in the least from his All-American form of last year and the gains through his position have been rare. Little can be said of Fisher other than that he played a strong conservative game, very seldom brilliant, but always dependable. Duff showed up best against Harvard and Yale, as did Hart. An aggressive, powerful player, and a fighter from the start, he often got through the opposing line to stop plays just started. He in company with Hart personify the type of football which Princeton played during...
