...University, Cornell Pennsylvania and brown stand first among the elevens which demonstrated an ability to respond to the finishing touches of the latter-season coaching. Dartmouth and Yale, on the other hand, seemed to have suffered a slump which, in the came of Yale, will require nothing short of a sensational spurt to prepare it for next Saturday's game with Princeton.

...attack, completely baffied Captain Wilson's men, and they were defeated 16 to 7. Colgate, since downed by Syracuse with a 38 to 0 shut-out, was the next visitor at the Bowl, and a few trick plays gave them a 15 to 0 victory. The climax of the slump came when Brown, last Saturday easily defeated by the University substitutes, took the next game...
