...Crimson eleven, as it will go on the field Saturday, is one that any team may well fear. The line will be outweighed 7 pounds to the man by Yale, but it will not be outfought. The Yale secondary defense tackles hard, but the Crimson offensive will manage to maneuvre them out of position; the team may be scored on but it will also score. Captain Kane and his men have shown so much gameness, so much fight, and so much come-back that, if injuries are equally divided, the University will...
...Yale game ended the season. The score of the contest although 28 to 3 against the Freshmen, does not indicate how much the yearlings outfought their blue-jerseyed opponents and how they were kept from scoring three times in the first half only by extraordinarily unlucky breaks.

There is a danger when one of the yearling teams has defeated a noted rival, it may rest upon its laurels until the following Saturday's contest and be both outfought and defeated by a far inferior eleven. After this sad event all the Freshmen have wandered in town to moan, and to see a Harvard victory in the Stadium against Yale. The squad has shown its ability at Princeton; but it is this week's practice that will...
