Another pleasant surprise of the Maryland game was Scott's feat in kicking two long field goals. Although he had a strong wind with him, either of them would have been good for forty yards on a calm day. These were the first dropkicks scored by Yale this year, and supporters of the Blue were becoming fearful lest this defect might prove an important factor in the big games ahead. Scott is also a first-class defensive back, in-fact almost the equal of Allen. If the speedy Tiger backs rip through the Yale line as they did through Harvard...
...second team will play in the Class B division. Last year the University first and second teams were successful in winning both series. Captain Dixon of last year's team, and also captain this year, was the state champion last year, and has every prospect of repeating his feat this year. The other letter men who are in the University this year are G. D. Debevoise '26, J. J. Glessner '25, R. P. Rose '25, and E. M. Upjohn '25. With apparently only one position on the first team in much doubt, Coach Cowles should have little difficulty in turning...

...told of his Oxford days when, in postprandial exuberance, he would harangue a blithe gathering in his rooms upon his years of study at the science of propelling a spheroid. He would then tee a ball on the carpet and drive it smashing through a closet panel. Another feat was to loft balls from the lawn of University College to the sward of Queen's College over the walls and across "the High." A servant would then call at Queens, mocking politely: "Mr. Tolley's compliments to the gentlemen of Queens and might he have his golf balls back...
After a brief rest, they hopped 440 miles to Omaha, where their arrival was marked by a holiday for school children and others. In Tucson, Ariz., the next stop, they were again feted for their feat, in spite of the fact that Governor G. W. P. Hunt, stricken with appendicitis, could not be present. The following day, they hopped to San Diego and stared, like stout Cortez, with eagle...
