...hard-fought contest. As was expected, Baker, the Princeton rover, was the star of the game and his dashes down the rink easily put him on a par with Ross and Taylor, the two Canadian professionals who played here last winter. The visitors were far from a one-man team however, and Baker was excellently supported by Kay, Kuhn and McKinney. Kalbfleisch was the mainstay of their defence and his work during the last ten minutes, when six Harvard men were striving desperately to shoot the puck by him, was little short of marvelous...
...Freshman team which represented Harvard Saturday morning at Princeton turned out to be decidedly a one-man eleven. Had it not been for four field-goals by Brickley, netting a total of 12 points for Harvard, combined with the Freshman captain's excellent defensive and offensive work, it is very doubtful if Harvard would have come off the victor. At the end of the game Harvard had a credit of 12 points to none for Princeton...
...individual players, Sprackling is playing in the same form which won for him last year the All-American quarterback position. Much of the team's success must be attributed to his superior playing. The eleven is, however, by no means a one-man organization. Ashbaugh at end has few, if any peers in that position, and Adams is a capable running mate.

Every play in which Yale attempted to advance the ball brought out the combined strength of every man on the team and it was by their concentrated energies that they achieved that consistency in their gains that made the difference between victory and defeat. Harvard's defense was practically a one-man defense; not because the men were in-different to helping in other positions than their...
...nothing to limit the number of terms given one man. B. It would lead, from the power of appointment, to increased corruption (No. Am. 154: 691.) C. It would endanger our republican form of government. (1). It would lead to one of two things: (x) the development of a governing class, or (y) a strong, one-man government. (a.) In seeking several terms, the President must trust more and more either to the help of bosses and machines or to the love of the people. (b.) In the first the tendency is toward the stealing of the people's power...
