...decided improvement over last year. Riggs, a new man this year, has been filling his place the past few days and is doing well. Channing, half-back, received a temporary injury in practice this week, but will probably be able to resume play in a few days. It would seem that the team considered individually could scarcely be improved upon, but there is notice-able a decided lack of team work which may prove fatal. Princeton has experienced her usual hard luck in the injuries to her players, and it is to be hoped that some of the injured...
...same light; and an exchange and comparison of views cannot help clearing hazy and perhaps fallacious ideas on each side.

The men play without a bit of snap or earnestness. They seem to think they can play hard when they choose, and at other times are at liberty to gaze around the field or do whatever else suits them best. This sort of work has lasted quite long enough and the sooner the captain and his men wake up to the fact that...
