Yale was extremely lucky in defeating Colgate 7 to 3 in a game in which the Eli eleven was completely outplayed. Early in the game, West of Colgate put a goal from placement over the bar, and the Maroon team held this slight lead until the last quarter, when Legore caught a forward pass and crossed the goal line for the touchdown that won the game. This lone score came after the Colgate halfback, Hubbell, had been so hurried in his punting that he had been unable to kick the ball accurately, and it went outside on his 20-yard...
...Jarvis Field yesterday afternoon. Kelleher played well, although a high wind made good tennis difficult. The match was marked by very little rallying Kellerher seemed to have it his own way, driving deep into Rand's court for points. And although Rand made a many good placement shots, Kelleher seemed always to be able to make a remarkable recovery and win the point...
...first score came soon after the opening of the scrimmage, when W. F.

Flower '19 made the second score for the first team, carrying the ball over from the 15-yard line for a touchdown, while Robinson kicked the goal...
...practice--falling on the ball, charging, waddling, starts and tossing the medicine ball.

A few minutes on the dummies, half an hour of starts and wadding, another 30-minute period of falling on the ball, and a little work with the medicine balls at present constitute the extent of practice. The coaches are planning to give the men some signals within...
...expert drop-kicker. In Moore he has a fast, elusive back. We shall see Princeton this year making a lot of use of her backfield in the way of returning kick-offs. The Tigers last season showed a very interesting protective system for a man coming back with a placement kick or punt, and no doubt it will be built upon this year. Last season the short, sharp forward pass came into view in the latter games, and will unquestionably be developed this year. The plays calling for quick turns off tackle, operating from a masked thrust, will be improved...
