Brown scored two touchdowns in the first period, the first coming after a steady march down the field and the second on a long forward pass. The next score was made by Murphy, the Brown quarterback, who caught a punt and ran 85 yards, helped by splendid interference, for a touchdown. After that, Brown had an easy time and would have scored oftener had it not been for penalties and the fact that with the ball on Vermont's five-yard line, the game was called...
...lucky in defeating Colgate 7 to 3 in a game in which the Eli eleven was completely outplayed. Early in the game, West of Colgate put a goal from placement over the bar, and the Maroon team held this slight lead until the last quarter, when Legore caught a forward pass and crossed the goal line for the touchdown that won the game.

Yale gained...

The backfield is made up of good men, but they show insufficient team-work. The defence as a unit has been better since the Yale game but still has much room for improvement. The present line with the exception of the wings, is regarded as the equal of last year's, and the backfield has been strengthened by the substitution of Kinsolving at left half for Smith...
Kinsolving's ability was first recognized in the Vanderbilt game. He proved the most consistent ground gainer on the eleven, and showed up especially well in shooting forward passes. All the regulars will be in the line-up against the University tomorrow except Smith and probably Wagenknight, who shared the honors with Kinsolving in the Vanderbilt game...
