...hardest games this year, Yale beat West Point on Saturday by the score of 6 to 0. In the first half the play was so close that neither team was able to score, although West Point had two opportunities for field goals by heeling punts for fair catches. In the second half, however, Yale's reserve force told and Coy was pushed across the line for the only touchdown, the goal from which he kicked. Yale played "straight football" throughout, and what use they intend to make of the forward pass and onside kick in later games was not apparent...
...Stadium this afternoon at 3 o'clock. Last year Williams was defeated by the score of 18 to 0. This year their team is composed of heavy line men and a fast backfield. Williams defeated Middlebury a week ago by the large score of 56 to 0, and the hardest game the University team has played so far is expected...

...hardest problems that faces Coach Coogan at Cornell this year is to find battery strength to re-enforce the weaknesses incurred by the loss of the two excellent batteries, Deshon and Hastings, and Lovejoy and Graves. Caldwell, a football player, who was ineligible last year, gives promise of developing into a good pitcher, and may settle the difficulty. Brown, third baseman, and Bigelow, left fielder, were lost by graduation. Players again eligible are Captain Heilman, short stop; Watson, first base; Gable, pitcher; Ebeling, right field; Reiber, second base; and Higgins and Fulton, outfielders...
...open-minded and careful of their interests, are some of the most fundamental elements of success. It does not make so much difference to what party you belong or what candidate you support as long as you firmly believe in that party and that candidate. One of the hardest things the college man has to meet is the routine work in politics, which sometimes seems to him like drudgery; but if he resolves to freely and earnestly give and take criticism, to keep his word through thick and thin, and to maintain an even and open attitude toward his constituents...
