Since the last intercollegiate game with Columbia on January 21 the play of the University team has slightly improved. The forwards follow back well on the defense but their passing is unreliable, often weakening the effect of the attack. When near the opponents' goal many chances to score are lost as the men fail to keep their positions and are very slow in shooting. The defense is erratic and does not work together, often allowing a single fast forward to get close to the goal...
...work of the University team as a whole was characterized by lack of spirit. Sard at point was ineffective and weak in the defense. Newhall at coverpoint played hard and did some effective body checking, but often failed to stop the puck by trying to cover too many men. Wilder and Pell at right and left ends neglected to follow back, and were weak in both passing and shooting. Callaway and Townsend, though quicker at following back, were inaccurate in their shooting. The stick work of all the forwards was poor and none seemed able to keep possession...

In keeping possession of the puck the men were somewhat weak, although they shot hard and with fair accuracy. The defense was considerably aided by the quick work of the forwards in following back, and was fairly strong, although Newhall, at coverpoint, was weak in body-checking...
...after all, is stronger than any of its parts, will not long permit two factions to stop industry. Compulsion, which must come from the government, must finally be used to bring the two parties to terms. The conflict, therefore, immediately becomes a political affair in which dishonest means are often used to win the favor of the officers of the law. To conciliate these two great industrial forces of labor and capital, organized as monopolies with a perfection never before reached, is a momentous problem which will well serve as the test of a democracy...
