...fierce line charges and punting, belongs the chief credit of the victory. Cooney, Congdon and Goebel were good throughout the game; Congdon's tackling in the first half and Goebel's great line-smashing in the second, were especially noticeable. Captain Biglow was always the first to get through on the defense and was strong on the offensive. In the first half Princeton easily had everything its own way and scored two touchdowns, but in the second half the Yale attack was irresistable and the defense impregnable.

We may exaggerate this danger, but the possibility of unwelcome disturbances should be sufficient to check any misdirected demonstration...
Newhall, who was injured in Saturday's game by a bad cut over the eye, was on the field, but did not get in the line-up. Starr and Burr have lame legs and were also excused from practice. It is expected that all of the injured men will have recovered sufficiently to play against Yale next Saturday...
