...Syracuse game the energies of the Providence team were directed almost wholly to stemming the continuous attacks of their opponents but twice they were able to threaten the Syracuse goal in flashes of brilliant attack. To develop the power of his advance Coach Robinson has abandoned almost--wholly the expected policy of overhead attack and has resorted all season to straight football.
