...stopping almost every attack. Only the prettiest possible exhibition of team-work enabled the Crimson forwards to play through and score the second goal. Yale's forward line was without the services of the captain and star, Burgess, who is a fast, aggressive player. His absence was certainly felt; but Jacob, who took his place at rover, played a good game, proving to be Yale's strongest offensive factor. Percy played his usual fast, hard game for the University. The wing pairs were about evenly matched. Thacher played effectively, but both the University wings lagged a little behind the centres...
Kent's loss would have been severely felt by the track team, as he is the best miler in college. Last spring he won second place in the mile in both the Yale and Cornell meets, being led only by Poucher in the former and by Windnagle, who set up a new record, in the latter...

American ideals were not at all on that European plane, and yet today we see statesmen, business men and University leaders in full retreat for that precise European method of force, of piled up armaments and of an international power-magazine liable to instant explosion at the first spark. For America to resort to such European methods is to confess openly, as Lord Roseberry sees, that American aims and standards...
