...chiefly by excellent defensive work and good all around play by the backs. In the game with Dartmouth, the real strength of the Princeton team was first shown. The defence was impenetrable, the generalship of Captain Glick excellent, and the individual play of Tibbott, who scored 16 points, and of Driggs, who excelled in punting, were factors in the overwhelming victory of 30 to 7. A 27 to 0 victory over Williams was accomplished last week without the aid of five of the Tiger regulars. Indications thus far point to one of the strongest teams Princeton has turned...

The author thinks the ten pages devoted to athletics in "Harvard of Today," the Territorial Club's booklet, shows a too great interest in athletics.

...race was rowed over the mile course from the Cottage Farm Bridge to the Harvard Bridge. It was hotly contested throughout but the finish was not so spectacular as that of the University boats. By coming in so close to the winner the Thayer crew gets one-half a point which is subtracted from the Eliot boat's three points, making the score in the series now stand, Eliot two and one-half points; Thayer one-half point. The fourth club crews race this afternoon at 3.50 o'clock, but the second club crews will not row until tomorrow...
