Their chief fault seems to be carelessness, which shows itself frequently in fumbling and offside play. The Freshmen have improved very rapidly of late, and ought to give a good account of themselves. The Sophomore team is composed wholly of new material, and is consequently weak...

The Princeton games were scheduled rather later than this year, and thus the showing was better, but the series with Brown and that with Holy Cross, which came at an earlier date, were lost. The record of the Yale nine had been about equal to that of their rivals, and although they have been successful against Princeton, the actual standing of the two teams in point of victories and defeats is practically the same as a year...
