...Neither side scored in the first half. In the second half Wyckoff caught the ball on the kick-off on Cornell's 15-yard line and made a brilliant run of 90 yards. He passed the whole Brown team, but was at length caught from behind by Fultz. Beacham was soon pushed over the line for a touchdown, and Wyckoff kicked the goal...
...squad are on the hospital list, some of them seriously disabled. Capt. Lea has not yet recovered from the injury to his shoulder sustained in the Harvard game. Suter has wrenched his knee badly, and Baird is laid up with water on the knee. It is probable that neither Lea, Suter or Baird will be able to play in the Yale game on Nov. 23.

The coaches who will remain with...

That it may be considered a mistaken sense of duty is a reflection neither upon Captain Brewer's character nor upon the condition of athletics, the demands of which can still be met, we believe, by men of the right temperament, without detriment to the more important claims of college work...
