...York City, Friday November 7, 1913.--At 2 o'clock this afternoon on Osborne Field the fast and versatile Princeton football team will meet the University eleven in what promises to be one of the most closely fought contests of the season. Both teams have shown rapid improvement in the past week, and will start the game almost evenly matched. Princeton has confidence from its 54 to 0 victory over Holy Cross last Saturday, coupled with the fighting spirit instilled by the loss of the Dartmouth game the week previous.

Yale's attack was slow and uncertain and was, except for the second period, during which flashes or brilliancy were shown, ineffective. Fumbling was the direct cause of two of Colgate's touchdowns. The ball was in Yale's territory most of the time. The team will be strengthened this week by the return of some of the regulars who have been on the injured list...
...interclass athletic event of interest was the fall track meet which the Freshmen walked away with, scoring 57 points, against 12 for 1916 and 1915, while the Seniors brought up the rear with 9 points. Although no exceptionally fast times were made, the material shows promise of developing into a good, well-balanced team
