...likely to diminish, indeed they tend to grow in a manner that is almost alarming. Not only have all our savings of past seasons been used up in the construction of the Stadium, but it will be some years before we are free from debt on this account, yet, even as it is, we have been obliged to postpone for an indefinite period the building of the covered colonnade which was part of the original plan and which would add greatly to the appearance of the structure...
...coaches this fall made mistakes in judgment, but in my twenty years of observation of Harvard athletics I have never seen a coach who did not make mistakes. Even W. T.

Cooney scored both touchdowns and kicked the goals, and Stanard repeatedly made gains of five and ten yards through the line. Cooney showed even more speed and aggressiveness than he displayed last year. He has developed excellent ability in kicking goals and has accepted all his chances this season. Princeton's defense, which has been somewhat erratic this year, was exceedingly strong Saturday, and allowed West Point to make first down only once during...
