...Roper forward-pass attack are polished off, it is hard to see just where Princeton is going to be weaker than last year, Lourie is filling in more than acceptably at quarterback; German and Gilroy, last year's Freshman flashes, are living up to their reputations, and Thompson, all-around athlete, has been the surprise of the season thus far. In this, his first season of University football. Thompson has been injured and has not yet regained his speed; he is not expected to round into his best form until the game with the University, three weeks away...

It is a situation which any friend of organized society, whether or not a citizen of Illinois, must look upon with apprehension...
...work this week of the 1923 stars, Gorman and Gilroy, and Thompson, who is this year making his first stab at Princeton football, has been very gratifying to Backfield Coach Glick.
