...second place, it was built on reclaimed land, which caused the water to run out and the ice to crack in consequence when the tide was low. This year arrangements must be made early if the project of having a rink is to be successful, and there is no reason why it should not be so. The most important factor for its success is to have the plans drawn up by some one who thoroughly understands the construction of an ice-rink. If the students could be certain that the rink was to be an assured thing; that...
...into condition soon enough to win the two important games with Pennsylvania and Yale seemed a very difficult takes. The coaches decided at once to bring about the development of the team very slowly and gradually, and not to vary this policy in the slightest degree.

Chadwick proved to be another good linebacker. Both the guards and tackles were also used in the offense and battered down Columbia's defense very effectively...
