...regulars had retired to give the substitutes a chance. The first string forwards showed considerable improvement in maintaining their formation and succeeded in keeping the play in the B. A. A. territory most of the time. The men as a whole are in good condition and played with considerable snap and dash. Smart scored the only point for the University after a pass from Curtis...
...wonderful football ability is too well known about the University to need comment. His drop kicks have won many contests of which the outcome would have otherwise been doubtful, and his presence in the game has always injected life and snap into his team-mates.

The result of it is that the opposing...

Wilson, an extra ordinarily heavy man for the quarter back position, fully lived up to the reputation he has recently been building for himself, frequently getting away for long gains after receiving punts, and running the team with snap and vigor. Yale also showed a reversal of form in its fierce and sure talking, very different from the hesitating variety much in evidence hitherto...
