Practice for the University football men who fought against Princeton was resumed yesterday afternoon when every man, except J. K. Desmond Occ. took part in the drill.

...golf team met a severe defeat at the hands of the Brae-Burn club team at West Newton, Saturday afternoon, the home team scoring 19 points to the visitors' 2.

Mosser and Angus won two out of their three points, while the other Brae-Burners secured complete victories. The summary...

Trenkmann, the veteran guard, has only been out since the Dartmouth game, and so should have but little trouble getting back into shape, but McLean has been out longer, and will probably have a hard week's work to regain his form...
