...Percy '18 is the fastest man on the team, and has already established a reputation for himself in intercollegiate hockey circles. He has wonderful stamina, great defensive ability and is a hard shot, though inclined to be wild. E. O. Baker '17, who plays the other centre position, uses his head and his stick extremely well. He is, however, somewhat slow in getting started, but the waiting game he has developed has ben responsible for several goals, as well as for checking opponents who find a chance to get away clear...
Yesterday's practice was the best the University has had since the vacation; the men worked together both on the offence and defence and played the fastest hockey they have shown this year. Team B made an excellent showing against the regulars and held them to three goals, but were unable to shoot the puck past J. I. Wylde '17.

Percy was easily the fastest man on the ice and was, besides, brilliant on the defence, slowing up the scrub forwards by skating across in front of them when they had the puck, but his shooting was not as accurate as Townsend's. D. Appleton '18, on team C, continued the fast playing...
Washington and Jefferson came to the Bowl a week later expecting to beat Yale, but went down to a 36-to-14 defeat in the fastest and cleanest game of the season. There was no doubt as to Yale's supremacy. They were strong on offence and defence and won with comparative ease...
More than redeeming last year's loss at the hands of Cornell, the University football team decisively defeated the Ithacans by the score of 23 to 0 Saturday afternoon in the fastest game played in the Stadium this season. It was a victory of alertness over power; despite the advantage in weight and experience, the Red and White eleven was too slow and too careless in handling the ball to be able to make the most of the few opportunities it had to be dangerous. Of the six fumbles made, five by Cornell and one by the University, the Crimson...
