...great deal of confidence in the backs. Kernan has been playing a strong game throughout the season, but has not yet recovered from his injury received in the Brown game. He follows his interference well, and his speed is a great help on end runs. Putnam is an effective ground gainer and his persistency puts a great deal of life into the other players. Ristine is a hard and fast runner, but does not follow his interference closely enough. Graydon has improved greatly, especially in hitting the line and keeping his feet. He is valuable in breaking up the line...
...east and west wings being only about one-half the length of the south side. The length of these two wings will be doubled and the fourth side of the square built. This fourth side, or north wing, will extend through to Bow street and will take up the ground on which Young's restaurant Low stands. The addition, which will contain thirty-two suites and accommodate about sixty men, will be four stories high, and will be finished both outside and inside in the same manner as the present building...
Work on the Architecture Building is progressing steadily, and several rooms on the ground floor are nearly finished. The plumbing is ready for use with the exception of a few alterations to be made in the basement. The painters expect to complete their work today.

Sargent at center not only passed well, but went into all the plays in good style. Barnard and Lee opened large holes in the line and helped the runners along. Cutts was slow in starting with the ball, but when once under way gained ground effectively. Marshall was not accurate in handling the ball and did not watch the opposing team enough in directing the plays. Graydon hit the line very awkwardly and was not accurate in finding openings. Kernan and Putnam ran well with the ball and warded off tackles, but Kernan was careless in handling the ball...
...University of Pennsylvania football situation during the past three weeks has not been very promising. While the ground-gaining department of the team is all that could be desired, the line has shown great weakness and has been broken up in nearly every game. The ends are the most vulnerable places on the team and any man of ability is sure of substantial gains around them. But on the other hand, Pennsylvania has an exceptional back field, and with the improvement that is likely to come in the defense, is apt to gain some strength...
