...great big slump in the character of play in the McGill and first Yale games. The second Yale game was nothing but fast, aggressive shinny, and finally Saturday, the standard of play was better, but not good enough to defeat the star Princeton seven. The loss of Phillips no doubt had much to do with this defeat, and the injury to Willetts may prove a great handicap; but if the team can pull itself together and recover from its various bruises, injuries and reverses, it seems as though we were on the up road again, with an equal chance...

These are the days when publicity is the acknowledged course for railroads and big business; they are also...
...many faults were brought out which will have to be eradicated if there is to be a win from Princeton next Saturday. After a bad slump during and immediately after the Christmas training trip, the team has been gradually developing and improving and there is no doubt but that the fighting qualities that have enabled them to win the last two close games will stand them in good stead at the Arena next Saturday...
