...repeated blows about the head and particularly on the jaw, has been visibly dazed, he is the man to attack at the next onset. If in the last encounter a player has been obviously lamed in leg or arm or shoulder, the brunt of an early attack should fall on him. As a corollary to this principle, it is justifiable for a player, who is in good order, to pretend that he is seriously hurt, in order that, he may draw the opponent's attack to the wrong place. These rules of action are all justifiable, and even necessary...
...Cunningham was born in Boston on January 2, 1810. After graduating from the Boston Latin School at the age of fifteen, he entered Harvard in the fall of 1825. He received an A.B. degree in 1829, standing second in the list of honor men, and an A.M. degree in 1832. At the time of graduation he was the class Latin salutatorian. He then took the Medical School course, graduating in 1832, but practiced the profession but little. He was a man of learning and culture, and wrote verses which attracted much attention. Thirty-three years ago he took...
...outlook for a strong football team at Yale next fall is not particularly bright. Of the thirteen men who played against Harvard and Princeton, six will graduate, Captain Hogan, Bloomer, Kinney, Neal, Owsley and Leavenworth, and Rockwell will be ineligible to play, because of the four-year rule. Out of the twelve other men on the regular squad only seven will return, so that it seems likely there will be a decided lack of substitute material. Although the backfield, as it played in the Harvard game, will be absolutely intact, the line will be greatly weakened by the loss...
...will also graduate. At present the strongest candidate for a line position appears to be Forbes, the former Wesleyan player, who is now a regular member of the sophomore class. His work this year on the college team was very good, and he should be a valuable man next fall as he is heavy, fast and knows the game. As substitutes for Neal and Kinney, Cates and Congdon will return for the ends and Erwin and Gillis for the guard position. Roraback and Tripp will still be in college...
...Saturday, the University team has improved materially in stick work and in ability to follow and keep possession of the puck. On the offense the forwards play together better, and in passing, especially across the rink, have become faster and more accurate. With the exception of Callaway they still fall, however, to follow back properly after losing the puck. The work of the men in this respect has been slow and ragged all season, and in a close game is likely to prove disastrous. The team is considerably weakened by the loss of Manning at goal, who was very effective...
