...spite of our inability to tame the Yale Bulldog on the gridiron last fall, we need no longer feel blue. Captain Bigelow and his henchmen from the class of 1921 went out after that same animal shod with steel and armed with hickory and filled with an invincible spirit. After a few minutes of contest, the outcome was clearly evident, but play was continued until the Freshmen had driven seven goals where they belonged, past the Yale guard. Strangely enough, the Elis were unable to connect with a fortunate puck-thrust, and they stood at the poor...
...squander them in prodigal wastefulness. If we do not have an hour or more available for a certain task, we let the precious moments slip by.

The former last year held Michigan to a 14 to 0 score, and thus far this season has proved as strong, playing Washington and Jefferson a 26 to 22 game, and easily disposing of their opponents last Saturday. Coach McGugin, at Wanderbilt, has twelve letter men on hand, and expects to give the Wolverine backfield a worthy test. The Case game was of little good...
