...University football team will face Brown in the Stadium this afternoon at 2 o'clock. The game will be of great importance in determining the power and ability of the University's renovated lineup. In the Princeton game, the team did not show up as well as was expected. There was punch lacking, and at times the defense was dangerously impotent. Something was lacking in the team as a whole, not in its individual members. Moreover, Bradlee showed himself almost indispensable by the phenomenal brilliancy of his offensive playing. This, together with Cowen's weakness at guard, Storer's superiority...
Tomorrow the class will again assemble in front of University Hall at 3.30 o'clock and march to the field to witness the 1917 team in its final practice. Kanrich's band will play the College airs. As this will be the first opportunity 1917 will have to show its strength, it is hoped that the class will turn...
...through all the varieties of attack expected to be used. The kickers had a long drill, Law and Borden averaging 55 yards with their punts, and Captain Baker making 60 per cent of his attempted field goals. The players are all in good condition, and the line-up will show the full strength of the squad. The men will rest tomorrow until the game starts, and will enter the contest full of confidence...
...past week, and will start the game almost evenly matched. Princeton has confidence from its 54 to 0 victory over Holy Cross last Saturday, coupled with the fighting spirit instilled by the loss of the Dartmouth game the week previous. While the University team has had no chance to show its full strength in the early season games, the men individually at least equal the Princeton players, and have the advantage of experience and perfection in the fundamentals. The game will be a hard contest between consistent rushing of the backfield combination of Brickley, Bradlee, and Hardwick, and trick formations...
...Philadelphia 1 to 0, and the Crescent Athletic Club of Brooklyn 3 to 1. The Princeton backfield is excellent and plays a better game than the offensive division. The University team's season has been a series of defeats, but their late development has been rapid and they should show up well against the opposing eleven. Besides the team as given below, substitutes F. S. Hopkins, D. F. Fenn, Managers Storms and Chittenden, and Coach Burgess will make the trip. The probable line-up will be as follows: l.o.f., Weld; l.i.f., Carnochan; c.f., Baker; r.i.f., Foster; r.o.f., Smart; l.h.b., Carson...
