...criticism of the Yale team Duffey says: "Yale, although out of the rut of former years, lacks a good string of second team men. In general yale's defence has been more than above the average but her offence, though often brilliant, is at times ragged. . . . The one weak spot on the Yale line seems to be at tackle. . . . One flagrant weakness has been the weak defence and protection given the kicker. In every game this year Yale has had a kick blocked."

Brown continued its unbroken string of victories by defeating Vermont 42 to 0 in a slow, listless game Saturday afternoon. In the six games the Providence eleven has played it has been scored on but once, this being a field goal by Rutgers, and has itself scored 210 points against all its opponents.

That the Harvard coaches are not greatly worried over the outcome of the contest, however, is shown by the fact that the drill for the University squad this week has been unusually light, the first string men not having been sent onto the field for any hard scrimmaging until last Thursday, when the Freshmen lined up against them for the first time this season. And in this scrimmage the University eleven showed a much stronger offensive and defensive playing power than was evident in the Tufts...
