Only one man stood out among the substitutes as a strong player, that being R. Baldwin '17. He played a game similar to Percy's, hard and aggressive, but also suffered from lack of support...
...substitute last season, is playing a strong game in the place at coverpoint left vacant by the graduation last year of Captain Peacock. Princeton has a brilliant centre pair in Captain Schoen and Humphreys, and a forward line that works well together. Scully at point is a veteran player; Comey has proved his ability this year, and Ford is among the best of collegiate goal tenders. In the defensive department, however, Princeton is not as strong as the University. The Tigers have developed the same type of offensive hockey that the Crimson plays, depending on team-work rather than individual...

T. C. Thacher '18, regular coverpoint, has been laid up lately with an injured foot and H. K. White '19 has filled his position ably. White's long reach makes him a hard player to pass, and he plays a heady game although not as fast on the offence as Thacher...

He has by his methods put in jeopardy, the victory so dear to the hearts of the undergraduates and alumni. The hard work and efforts of his team-mates he would neutralize and the expenditure of the monies to meet the heavy expenses of the team would be considered as nought. B. A. Jessup. --Brooklyn Daily Eagle...
