...committee of the Student Council to arrange for the collection of all the trophies from various parts of Cambridge, a thorough dusting off, and a better arrangement. A very fitting place for a Trophy Room would be in the new Varsity Club, except that there would be danger of the relics of victory being hidden from the eyes of the interested public--that is, the fathers and mothers and aunts and uncles and friends of undergraduates and from most of the undergraduates themselves. We suggest that the Varsity Club provide a Trophy Room which non-members of the club might...
...Blue had many anxious moments and in the last few minutes of play seemed face to face with defeat at the hands of the ever strengthening Harvard eleven. But a try for a goal from the field just missed, and in two plays the ball was punted out of danger to the middle of the field. Time was called before either team had a further chance...
...goal from the field, but a poor pass from the centre delayed him so that he could not get the kick off but was tackled for a loss of eight yards. The University team received the ball on downs and immediately Felton punted out of danger. After two rushes Yale again punted, losing five yards on the exchange. This kicking game continued straight through until the final whistle, and in it Felton's long, high spirals far and away excelled the low, hurried, and sometimes short kicks which Howe and Camp got off. Before the game began it had been...
...offence of each team showed weakness inside its opponents' danger zone. Harvard had four chances to score and plainly showed the need of either a sure drop-kicker or a heavier offence. Yale had two good chances, lost the first through inability to force Harvard's line followed by a poor pass when Howe was about to kick, and lost the second because Howe's drop-kick failed to go over the goal posts. It has been suggested that the new rules were largely responsible for these failures, but perhaps they should reflect more to the credit of the defence...
...general condition of the men on the University team is good. There is no danger of their being over-trained, and very good reasons for believing that all will go into the game in fine shape with the possible exception of Potter and Felton. But even so, there are some places on the team which may yet be filled with substitute players when the game starts. Potter has been playing during the last three or four practices, but of course his strength for a big game is an unknown quantity, although at present he is in apparently good condition...
