...study of the subjects studied in College showed, moreover, that literature, history, economics, government, and science are equally good as preparation for legal or medical work. Thus the folly of attempting to steal a march by warping one's College course for professional ends is plain. It make little difference what a man studies in College. It makes a great deal of difference how well he studies...
...performers. Rooney's goal from a mix-up in the McGill game was the only shot to get past Wylde in the last five games Harvard has played, and York has been the sensation of the Yale seven throughout the season. He plays coolly, clears away his rebounds in good shape, but occasionally an angle shot for the outside corner gets away from him. The only possible fault in Wylde's playing is a tendency to take waist high shots with his stick which he might reach more surely with his hand; but this has not cost him any goals...
...tonight's contest. This is his third year on the team, and he and York, who also played last year, are easily the stars of the Yale combination. Teamed up with Burgess is Dickey, also a veteran of two years' experience, and these two have developed an unusually good short passing game. Against them Harvard sends a speedy pair in Percy and Baker. Percy, with his skating, stick-work, and lightning shots, is the most brilliant performer in the forward line, with the one fault of shooting high and sometimes wide. Baker, who has taken Curtis' place, is a very...
...leave Boston on the 10 o'clock train this morning for Princeton, where it will meet the Princeton team in the gymnasium tonight at 8 o'clock. The return of Captain A. J. Weatherhead, Jr., '16 to the squad has materially strengthened the team and it should give a good account of itself, as all the men are in good condition...
...general analysis of the Yale seven's play in previous games shows a strong defence, a good centre pair, with some-what slower wing men. The defence men, backed up by a very good goal-tender in York, play close, check aggressively, and are consequently hard to get through. They are not, however, as fast or as clever as the University backs and not very dangerous offensively. The wings play well with the centres and keep a good line formation. The centres are the mainstay of the forward line, playing a very aggressive game, and getting...
