...yearlings uncorked a series of punishing line bucks and brought the score up to 17 to 14. A few seconds before the final whistle, Gehrke's kick, though blocked, rebounded from the back of a crimson-jerseyed player and rolled 20 yards toward the tigers' goal where a yearling fell on it. Encouraged by this turn in fortune, the Freshmen pushed down the field to their opponents 20-yard mark. Jenkins, although withdrawn on account of injuries, returned to the game and dropped a pretty field goal over the crossbar for the final three points...
...next Saturday they played Andover and met a snag. Only after hard fighting, and brilliant play by the yearling backs, were they able to defeat the preparatory school team, 14 to 10. On the next two successive Saturdays, the Princeton 1924 and Dean Academy elevens fell before the Eli cubs by the scores of 17 to 3 and 40 to 0 respectively...
...Soldiers Field Saturday. Undefeated, the Blue cub will come on the gridiron confident of maintaining their record.

The latter duplicated the feat of Garrity in the Yale game last year when his interference made it possible for Scheerer to carry his recovered fumble for a touchdown. Legendre passed on and fell on the ball. Two plays afterwards, Garrity waded through a huge hole behind Keck, hurled himself on his neck and snuggled around the pigskin...
...yards. A lucky fumble gave the Yearlings the ball, though they failed to advance it. Gehrke's punt was the center of the next big break: though blocked it rebounded from a crimson-jerseyed back and rolled 20 yards towards the Tiger's goal, where a Yearling fell on it. Encouraged by this turn in fortune, the Freshmen pushed down the field to the 20-yard mark. Jenkins, though withdrawn with an injury, returned to the game and dropped a pretty goal within seven seconds of the end of the game...
