...forward, is not up to his usual standard. Most of the work will probably come on the guards. Hanavan and Fosdick. Their work, fortunately is fast for this time of season, and with good support should break-up the defense of the opposing forwards. By far the most serious fault of the team at present is the inability to throw goals when good opportunities offer...
...team has now been practicing almost constantly for a month, but although the men individually are strong players, they have shown as yet but little team work. The most noticeable fault is a tendency of the defense to play up too far, and thus leave their territory exposed. In general, through the season thus far, the work of the team has been very varied, though on one or two occasions it has been excellent. Princeton has a very fast team, of the members of which Captain Purnell, Leake and McClave played last year. During the Christmas recess, Princeton played three...
...criticized individually as follows: Of the forwards. Lovering plays the steadiest game, but is slow in shooting.

...addition is very valuable in carrying the ball. He is, however, a trifle too slow in determining where plays are going and gives practically no help to the other members of the team. Clark is a faster man than Mills, but has in an even greater degree the fault of not assisting the other players. At tackle also the struggle has been hard and long protracted. Both Shea and Wright have been given exhaustive trials, with the result that the former has at last proved himself the more effective player. He is exceedingly slow, but his better defensive ability, although...
