...Scheerer, the famous punter, are the two greatest losses Princeton will feel. Stiuson and Davis on the ends and Halsey at tackle are the only other men of importance to go. But Thomas is capable of filling Calshan's shoes, while with such men as Lourie. Garrity, Witmer, Murrey, Cleaves and Gilroy available for the backfield Scheerer will not be missed.

The Princeton back over whose head the pass was slung was Cleaves, recently substituted on account of his excellent breaking up of forwards against the Navy and West Virginia, a department at which Murrey did not excel...
