...tackle, the difference in favor of Yale is 195 to 188. On the other hand the Crimson ends outweigh the Yale ends by the difference of 177 to 173. In the backfield, also, the University has the advantage, the figures being 176 to 173. Yale has a heavier second string than the University; while the first string elevens are almost equal in weight, the average weight of the entire Blue squad is six pounds more than that of the Crimson squad, the weights being 182 to 176. The average height of the University team is one-sixth of an inch...
...carried it past the goal posts after marches of 70, 92, and 85 yards respectively. Finaly in the last period with the final whistle only seven minutes away, Coach Fisher's men staged their come-back. With a backfield consisting of two quarterbacks, Buell and Johnson, Coburn, a third string guard, and Churchill, fleet and elusive but comparatively light, and with a crippled but raging forward line, in three minutes they went from their own 12 yard mark down the field and over the last line for a thrilling touchdown, tieing the score and robbing the Bezdek machine of what...

Five times the Brounians threatened the Crimson goal-line and it was only the aggressive playing on the part of the second string forwards which prevented more than a single score from being made...
...excellent line, they had but mediocre backfield material. Taking hold of the coaching situation this fall, Coach Jones found almost the opposite was the case. Although the forward men were still powerful, he had acquired not only one good set of backs but indeed two complete backfields of first string calibre. In quarterback O'Hearn and Captain Aldrich he has two fine "triple threat" men. Both can either run, pass, or punt, and around them an almost invincible offense has been built up. As other men in the first team backfield Mallory and Jordan have proved their worth as line...
With the Princeton game a scant two weeks away, Coach Jones did not wish to risk last minute injuries to his first string players and therefore it was a band of substitutes which came up against Maryland for another overwhelming victory of 28-0. At no time during the game were the Southerners dangerous, since only once in the contest did they succeed in reaching even the Blue 30 yard mark. Jordan proved the chief scorer, bringing in three touchdowns while Captain Aldrich made one tally and got off several beautiful forwards...
