...passes that completely baffled the Western team. Notre Dame resorted to continual forward passing, but the Yale men had been taught a destructive defense for this open style of play and intercepted nearly all of the loser's attempts. Legore, Knowles, Ainsworth, and Wilson, the regular backfield men, played brilliant football individually and collectively. Saturday's game has instilled in the undergraduate body a lot of confidence in Coach Hinkey's methods...
...quarterback, injured his below in the fourth period and will doubtless be out of the game for a month. The withdrawal of Hughitt leaves only two of last year's regulars on the team, a fact which is causing less optimism on the part of Michigan's adherents.

...work of Michigan in a pouring rain, when she defeated Vanderbilt 23 to 3, featured the play of the University's coming opponents in the games of last Saturday. All of the teams on the remainder of the Harvard schedule, with the exception of Brown,--which played a brilliant 0 to 0 game with Amherst--were victorious.

He several times slipped through the line outside of tackle for good gains...
Brown played a brilliant game against Rhode Island Agricultural College, but mistakes, particularly fumbles, slowed up their attack. Twice Brown was held for downs within ten yards of their opponent's goal...
