...Indian game and the secret practices have shown that Hallowell is the most reliable and effective punter on the team. He places his kicks and works well with the ends. Reid, however, has shown steady improvement in this department of the game, and Sawin, who has fallen off, however, since the middle of the season, can be called on to punt in emergencies. The principal weakness of the team at present is fumbling kicks--a weakness which gave the Indians their touchdown. Sawin, who is strong on catching punts, plays in the backfield with Daly, and together they are sure...
...place, and Lawrence, both new men on the team, have overcome the tendency to lose their heads and are now very steady players. Campbell has adjusted himself to the team more easily than any of the new men. Daly plays the same game as last year but Reid has fallen off. Kendall is a brilliant line bucker and Sawin dodges well.

If we keep to our declared policy of war only for the liberation of Cuba, then they will have an enduring place in history. If, in the end, we pervert these ends, and are inspired by the lust of conquest, they will be remembered only as men of valor. Only wars of high aims leave behind imperishable names of greatness. The fate of the dead hero is in the hands of those who survive...
...making some brilliant stops. Laughlin played his usual steady game in the field but failed to show up very well at the bat. At second, Haughton was decidedly off his form, being accountable for several loose plays which were more or less inexcusable. His batting also seems to have fallen off considerably during the past week...
