...rest of his last college season. The loss of a pitcher who has proved so effective during three years of University competition is an exceedingly serious handicap to a pitching staff which has shown itself to be the weakest division of the squad. It will leave Spalding, Herrmann, and Puffer to shoulder the responsibility of staving off a repetition of the two-game win for the Blue last year...
...line-up which Coach Mahan will send on the field today is indicative of much more than the probable, result of the game with Tufts. He has announced that Herrmann will be on the mound, with Puffer, who distinguished himself in the Yale Second team game, in reserve, and DeRham once more behind the bat. This should indicate that Spalding will see the first service when the Blue series opens in New Haven with Herrmann to start the second game on Soldiers Field...

Twelve strike-outs with two hits, one of which drove in the tying and winning runs, formed the individual contribution of Puffer to the 7 to 6 win scored by the Crimson Seconds over the Yale Seconds on Saturday. He worked the entire nine innings for Captain Amsden's nine and except for a home run in the fourth from the bat of Lackey with the bases full, he kept the Blue team well in hand...
...Seconds will start tomorrow morning with an imposing record of seven runs and only two defeats, those by Exeter and Andover. Puffer has been by far the most successful of the second-string pitchers, and is expected to do well against the Blue substitutes. Last year he let the Elis down with four hits, but poor support enabled the New Haven outfit...
