...evening's hockey game. First, the Harvard game of four men in the forward line, each covering his own territory, has triumphed over Princeton, with an attack centered about Baker, in three games out of five. Second, the University team, after an unfortunate Christmas trip and a period of slow development, has progressed remarkably since the contest with Dartmouth. Third, the men have shown themselves from the beginning imbued with that characteristic of Coach Winsor's teams, fight. Princeton, a seven of unusual power with the better record behind it, faces a team which has the qualities to meet that...

...between Team A and Team B which was won by the former by the score of 4 to 2. The work of the forwards was characterized by hard and accurate shooting and by a semblance of team-play which has been lacking thus far. The line was a trifle slow in starting and the men appeared somewhat overtrained which is natural, however after the three hard games played the last part of last week. Coach Winsor paid particular attention to remedying the slow starting. Phillips was the individual star with three goals to his credit while Adams, Devereux, and Morgan...

...general accusation which comes from the Gymnasium Committee this morning is pointed. But we think that the slow response of delinquents to the entreaties of the Committee is due to a lack of funds rather than of enthusiasm. This is a low time of year for the treasury. And, so we do not agree with the Committee when it says that little more can be done until the unredeemed pledges have been paid up. The pledge of a gentleman will always be met in the end, which means that the unpaid pledges still represent real financial interest, that measure...

...stories are the least satisfactory part of the Advocate's contents. Mr. Larrabee's narrative of conversion and the mysterious ways of Providence is slow in starting and foggy in psychology. We have no faith in the hero's change of heart, for he is ever a creature of impulse and moves when and where his creator would have him. "Borrowing a Smile," by Mr. Clark, save that it is more firmly constructed than the other story, has little to recommend it. The moral is hackneyed, and the subject is just such a one as would suit a Munsey "storiette...

Colgate took Yale by surprise with her fast plunging backfield, and the Yale line, weakened by the presence of many substitutes, was unable to withstand their attack. Yale's attack was slow and uncertain and was, except for the second period, during which flashes or brilliancy were shown, ineffective. Fumbling was the direct cause of two of Colgate's touchdowns. The ball was in Yale's territory most of the time. The team will be strengthened this week by the return of some of the regulars who have been on the injured list...
