...goals, and Stanard repeatedly made gains of five and ten yards through the line. Cooney showed even more speed and aggressiveness than he displayed last year. He has developed excellent ability in kicking goals and has accepted all his chances this season. Princeton's defense, which has been somewhat erratic this year, was exceedingly strong Saturday, and allowed West Point to make first down only once during the entire game. Miller punted well, kicking a distance of 220 yards in five attempts; he also made consistent gains through the line...
...offense than on the defense. Six of the Dartmouth players were members of the team which defeated Harvard by the score of 11 to 0 last year. The average weight of the team as a whole is 179 pounds, and of the line, including the ends, 189 pounds, a somewhat lighter average than that of the University eleven. Dartmouth has played five games thus far this season and has won them all.

The back-field, however, is very strong, and should help the ends greatly on the defense. Smith, at fullback, is a reliable ground gainer through the line, and a sure tackle. All three backs. Smith Reynolds and Green, are good panters. Smith being perhaps the steadiest...
...promptness, but the contents are of greater depth and are altogether more readable. "In Memoriam," though a bit philosophical, is blank verse of a quality which justifies its form. "Amina" is a story of mystery, skilfully handled and not too perplexing to excite interest, while "The Unbeloved," a tale somewhat in the vein of Thomas Hardy, is witty and has convincing characters. Although the characters in "The Best Policy" are well conceived, the story is wordy and the outcome evident from the beginning. A new department, which may be made of considerable value to college men, is the "Theatrical Snapshots...
