...forward passes skilfully thrown by French and carried the ball down the field and over the goal line in six plays. Immediately afterward another series of forwards by the same player brought the Army to Yale's 18-yard line, only to lose the ball when a final pass fell to the ground beyond the goal line. Without French, however, the Army team lacked drive...
...thing is clear: the increase is not due to any special leniency on the part of the College Entrance Examination Board or the Harvard Committee on Admission. The number of candidates this year was tremendously larger than last year and the proportion who fell by the wayside was not unusually small.

Even under such conditions Duncan was game and put up the stroke, and for a half mile Princeton gained little more. But their attempt had been too much for them and in the final quarter. Crew B dropped some...
