...Brown eleven has not showed much improvement since their poor exhibition against Pennsylvania last week. They seem to lack the proper team-play necessary for a successful eleven although there are a great many good individual players. Captain Henry is now on the injured list wth a bad hurt to his ankle and it is doubtful whether he will play today against the Springfield Y.M.C.A.

He handled the team with such good judgement and sureness that his work was much of a surprise. Mahan, who also played at half, seemed much more at home in the latter position. His runs equaled Hardwick's in dash and brilliancy, and it does not seem improbable that in a few days he will be permanently removed from the quarterback race...
