...second half, Doty replaced Willetts at point and Wanamaker went in for Phillips, whose injured hand was beginning to weaken. Curtis and Morgan replaced the two wings. In face of the new energy thrown against them, the Princeton team played safe, and succeeded in keeping the University attack at bay. The only score was made by MacColl, who received the puck from Baker after the latter had again pierced the University defence...
...Yale's only point on a hard shot past Wylde. From then on the Yale freshmen were almost continually on the defensive, the sterling work of Morgan at point successfully checking their occasional attack. At the end of the first period the 1917 team had the game well in hand, and the play slowed down considerably during the second half...
...telegram was received from Captain Willetts yesterday saying that he expects to be back for practice today. His injury is not as serious as was at first feared. Although Phillips injured hand is not strong enough yet to enable him to manage a stick, it is expected that he will start the Princeton game next Saturday. Hopkins though still disabled for active play by his strained back, will probably be in the game again before Saturday. With the probable recovery of the University forwards and the improvement shown in yesterday's practice, the outlook for Saturday's game...

Doty played at point for Captain Willetts, Adams at right centre for Hopkins, and Wanamaker at left centre for Phillips, whose injured hand will keep him out of the game for several days. The play was fast but lacked exactness and team-work. There were few clean shots or well guaged passes. Both Wanamaker and Adams showed good form in their positions, however, and the University defence was strong against the individual play...
Harvard not only lost the game but suffered much more, for Captain Willetts had a rib fractured in a collsion with Baker and Phillips, although he started the game and played two minutes, was unable to continue with his injured hand. Smart and Hopkins who played through the game in the forward line were the best of the forwards, the former scoring the two goals for Harvard. Claflin and Willetts as usual kept up their good defensive work so characteristic of their play this year...
