...Yale team is far stronger on the offense than on the defense. Their development has been slow. This was due in part to the few games played, in part to the lack of attention from the graduate coaches, who have spent most of their time working on the 'Varsity. The past week's hard and very satisfactory practice, however, will doubtless find Yale prepared to play a strong game. Yet it is certain that the team is considerably weakened by the loss of Wilhelmi, fullback, who broke his collar-bone in the Princeton freshman game last Saturday. Although...
...Harvard man was injured. Hallowell held his own against McBride. Sawin and Daly did brilliant work in the back field. Campbell played a fine game and Daly ran the team well, but the disappointment at failing to score from the 2-yard line was great. Yale's ends were stronger than was expected...

The Dartmouth eleven have not been as strong as usual this year, and have been beaten several times by minor colleges. Early in the season they held Yale down to twelve points, but since then they have not developed as well as was hoped...
