...stopping several swift throws. Hodge, Gilmore, Hall and Hewitt, all defence men, did good work for Princeton. Our team played probably as well as it ever has played, and certainly showed remarkable improvement over their play in New York a week before. The team was greatly strengthened, to be sure, by the addition of Machado and Simpson, but the improvement lay in the steady, systematic play, that nearly every man showed.
