...fourth factor is the system. It is the coaching of the coaches. It is the School of Grand Tactics, which at Yale has been presided over for twenty years by Walter Camp. I shall try to show later just what this accomplishes to justify my crediting it with an influence of forty per cent. on the result. I have called it the 'system,' for want of a better word, but it is really the tactical policy of the game...
...week later the University team played Brown, and won a hard-fought game, 12 to 0. The line showed decided weakness in this game, and the play, in general, was slow. The first touchdown came near the end of the first half after L. D. Smith recovered a kick which Marble had muffed. From the 11-yard line, Corbett and Wendell made 5 yards in two rushes, and then Corbett went over for the score. The second touchdown was made by Graustein in the middle of the last period. Brown had carried the ball through Harvard territory for 88 yards...

West Point made the first touchdown after intercepting a forward pass, and Dean later kicked a field goal from the 38-yard line. In the last quarter Kilpatrick made a 20-yard run to West Point's 24-yard line, whence Daly scored a drop-kick...
...right halfback on the Harvard team, who suffered concussion of the brain. For the first 10 minutes he played a hard game, scoring the only touchdown for Harvard. On the next kick-off, however, he was tackled by three Yale men at once and was rendered unconscious. It was later found that his injury was not severe. He left the hospital yesterday afternoon...
Against Colby Dartmouth played first class early football. On the following Saturday Vermont was defeated by the score of 33 to 0. Dartmouth, while necessarily playing good football to win by such a score, displayed little advance over the game of a week before. A week later Williams was defeated by the score of 39 to 0. It is doubtful if a stranger contest was ever played in which splendid strength and decided weakness were shown by the same team. Coached to play high and diagnose the opponents' attack, the Dartmouth line was frequently pushed backward for long gains...
