...should like to point out one thing in this connection. It is a well established but perhaps little recognized fact that whenever anything of note happens in a large university, glowing accounts, often puffed with the bellows of ill-feeling, find their way into newspapers all over the country. It has come, as a result, that a university must guard its reputation very scrupulously. Give the public the least suspicion that there is anything out of the ordinary going on, and immediately the pack of newspaper reporters is in full...
...themselves, as towers of strength in the line. Hart's best games were those against Harvard and Yale, when he repeatedly did titanic work in holding two of the best backfields in the country. Englehorn, both at Princeton and in the Stadium, played All-American football without doubt. Like White, Englehorn follows the ball closely.

With the single exception of this year, Yale has never lost a game to either Harvard or Princeton with a quarterback as captain, and has won like Harvard more games under ends than under men of any other positions...
