...Honore, Ewald, Mason, Saxe and Swarts have made us a very strong part. These men, with G. H. Carpenter in the second bass, Howard, Balch, Pope and B. Carpenter in the second tenor, and Lund and Barry in the first tenor, will leave many vacant places behind them. The loss of so many well-trained voices will be severely felt next year, unless the ranks are filled by a large accession of men from Ninety-two or unless singers among the students offer themselves at the trial of candidates in the fall.

...better team play and Princeton the more brilliant individual work. The goals for Princeton were thrown by Bonsal and Paxton. The playing of Harvey, of Harvard, and Poe, of Princeton, merit special praise. The victory was unexpected by Princeton, whose team has been much broken up by sickness and loss of members...
