...wholly unforecasted by any previous work of the team. But while her attack had improved remarkably and her defence to a somewhat lesser extent the splendid showing of the Brown eleven was due in a large measure to the weakness of the Yale line. The playing of Captain Talbott strengthened the forward defence perceptibly, but upon his withdrawal the men seemed unable to put up a concerted opposition to the opponents' attack. Time and again the Brown backfield, headed by Murphy, slipped through holes for consistent gains. Yale used a substitute backfield throughout the game, and the men played well...

...backfield is very well taken care of, two fast sets having already been formed. On the first are Wilson, Knowles, Ainsworthy, and LeGore. Captain Talbott, at tackle, is the only veteran on the line, and even he is not considered heavy enough to play efficiently through the whole of a hard struggle. The ends are being filled by substitutes from last year, one of them being Braun, who played in most of the Harvard game. Both White and Way have been lost to the squad, and Guernsey is ineligible pending the result of examinations. The material, however, is far above...
