...When we turn to the German people, we observe the same intolerance. The press is absolutely and unqualifiedly opposed to anything which may be proposed from that source. It refuses all consideration for those things which bear the Imperial stamp. Now we offer no brief for the German nation. We have found in their offers no basis for a just peace. We maintain the principle that they as yet lack the good faith which is so essential to the final settlement. Yet it seems that such an intolerant attitude is the blindness of a superficial patriotism. Only by earnestly watching...

...Captain E. L. Bigelow '21 and R. W. Buntin '21, the Freshman seven opened the game with one of the most spirited attacks ever seen in a Freshman game, while the Yale forwards in their turn found it impossible to penetrate the Crimson defence. In less than three minutes Bigelow started the scoring on a clean shot after a pretty run up the rink.
