...fact the new combination worked exceedingly well both on the defence and on the offence and gives promise of being as strong, if not stronger, than the former arrangement. The presence of Huntington in the forward line added weight to an otherwise exceedingly light attack and his speed was invaluable in advancing the puck. Both of these factors should be of great advantage against the heavy Yale team. Foster and Blackall worked well together, the former often carrying the puck through the entire Dartmouth defence and the latter doing some very effective body-checking. The game on Saturday showed that...
...meeting of the Intercollegiate Football Rules Committee yesterday, several minor changes in the rules were decided upon. Only two of these will have a direct influence upon the game, the others being mainly with regard to duties of officials. These are: (1) A player turning to catch a forward pass must not be tackled until he has caught the ball; (2) if the ball, while in play, hits an official, it shall not be declared dead, but play shall continue...

...University hockey team held the last hard practice before the Dartmouth game in the Arena last evening. The loss of Captain Hornblower will do much to slow up the attack of the forwards but it is hoped that the moving of Huntington from coverpoint to Hornblower's position in the forward line will go far toward remedying this defect. Blackall was tried at point and Foster went out to Huntington's position at coverpoint. As Foster played this position last year, he ought not to have much difficulty in adapting himself; and Blackall has substituted at point both this year...
...game for the rest of the season with a broken cheek bone. A slight operation was necessary to reset the bone. Leslie's knee will not permit his playing for some time. Therefore it will be necessary to make several shifts or substitutions in the forward line to strengthen it for the game with Dartmouth on Saturday. The permanent absence of Captain Hornblower will greatly weaken the attack, as he was the best of the forwards at advancing the puck...
