...first game of this match was carried to extra points, but Debevoise's superior headwork finally prevailed 1817. In the second game, however, Crocker took Debevoise off his feet with his hard-hitting play, his baffling left handed strokes, and his clever drop-shots; he frequently landed the ball in the nick for a sure point, and entirely deserved his 9-15 victory. In the final game Debevoise steadied down and employed better strategy to win 15-9. By this match the former St. Paul's man has shown himself to be a player of promise, and is expected...
...experienced and reliable quarterback. Gorman, who led the team in the Chicago game, is able to instill a better spirit and drive into the eleven than any of the other candidates. He exhibited poor judgment in the selection of plays in the earlier contests but showed brilliant headwork in the last quarter of the game with the westerners. In fact his playing is typical of this year's Princeton team as a whole which has frequently given an exhibition of only mediocre football but which on the other hand has and may today show a superb brand of football rarely...
Against Virginia last Saturday, however, the Orange and Black men showed a most amazing reversal of form. Fighting every minute, aggressive, and using excellent headwork, they snowed under the southern team by the score of 34 to 0.

The line charged harder, the interference was much smoother and the backs picked their holes well in bucking the line. Only once did the visitors threaten the goal line, but here a wall-like defense halted their rush on the one foot...
Coach Fisher believes that the Crimson defense tomorrow will show great improvement from last Saturday. Although Captain Kane lacks the ruggedness that is generally associated with University tacklers, he handles himself better and shows more headwork than the majority of the players one the Crimson squad. He played tackle two years ago for Coach Fisher and therefore will not start tomorrow's game as a novice in his position. Tierney's agility and general build class him more as a tackle than a center. These two men are expected to provide tomorrow the strength and aggressiveness which the university line...
...tournament was declared intercollegiate champion; while Bencoe, second only to the latter, also succumbed to the Crimson captain in his individual match with him. Ordway was the only fencer who defeated either of these men. Watson, with a field of twenty-five against him, surprised and defeated with excellent headwork all his opponents except Grandfield of the Navy, who secured first place...
