...Blue to a scoreless tie last year, by a score of 20 to 0. The Northerners seemed to have little power for concentrated attack and Yale was never in fear of inability to defend its goal. At New Haven, Hinkey, "the silent coach," seems to be developing a fast, shifty backfield and a sturdy line with a low charge. The work of the men behind the line featured Saturday's contest. Ainsworth and Knowles, the veteran halfbacks, and Wilson, last year's quarter, contribute experience and dependability to a backfield which has acquired increased efficiency through the addition of LeGore...
...material for the backfield is especially promising. Glick appears the most likely man for quarter, no one else having been given a serious try-out there. Law and F. Trenkmann, Baker's running mates last year, are in fast company, and will have to work hard to hold down their jobs against Driggs, Dickerman, and Tibbott. The latter is especially dangerous in an open field...

Captain Talbott, at tackle, is the only veteran on the line, and even he is not considered heavy enough to play efficiently through the whole of a hard struggle. The ends are being filled by substitutes from last year, one of them being Braun, who played in most of the Harvard game. Both White and Way have been lost to the squad, and Guernsey is ineligible pending the result of examinations. The material, however, is far above...

There are only six veterans on the team and these, with three or four of last year's second string men will have to do the bulk of the work. There are several new men who are fast and heady and who played good preparatory school football, but who are too light for the college game. A large number of small preparatory school football stars entered Bates this fall but most of them are very light. Among the most promising are A. Nevel, B. Nevel, Swift, Shattuck...
...have been the best pair of ends in the State are both gone and there is no one to replace them. A. Nevel and Swift, both freshmen, appear to be the strongest candidates. Boyd '16 is also working hard and may earn a place on the team. He is fast and strong and takes care of forward passes in good shape...
