...University team has shown but slight improvement since the Princeton game and the defence is still weak in body-checking and in getting the puck out of the corners, a defect largely responsible for two of Princeton's three goals. It is strong, however, in going down the rink with the puck, Blackall's ability in this department of the game being particularly noticeable...
...true that the actual sheep-skin may not possess the intrinsic value of past years but the final ceremonies attached to graduation are naturally of the greatest interest to a man's parents. To bar them, as is now necessarily the case at Sanders Theatre, seems to us a defect in management which can be corrected...
...play regularly at right end and as a consequence all four forwards have not been able to form a smoothly working offence. Until the Princeton game the passes from centre to wing were rather poor, and even now the men are not at all sure of their shooting, a defect shown in the last two practices against the B. A. A. With Pierce seeming practically sure of the right end position, however, by Saturday a much more effective offensive combination should go against Princeton for the second game than did last week; and by February 3, when the team meets...
Altogether the game showed few encouraging features for the Harvard team. The interference was very poor with the single exception of Wendell, who seldom failed to put his man out of the play. Especially when the substitutes went in was this defect noticeable. Several times the secondary defence was badly drawn in, particularly when Holy Cross executed the forward pass which put the ball on the University team's 15-yard line. Again there was evident the fact that the right side of the line is by far the stronger of the two, although very few gains were made through...
...committee of graduates in 1901 placed Class Day on Monday, thus making no provision for the dance on the night before. For this and other reasons the plan did not appeal to the undergraduates, and so was rejected by the authorities. The present arrangement has no such defect. If the recommendations of the committee be adopted, some time will have to be saved in the academic year, and it is probable that in September, 1912, College will open three days earlier than at present...
