...first game was played on Friday at Nashville against a combination of graduates of Sewanee, Vanderbilt, and Michigan. The field was slippery and treacherous from long rains, and neither side was able to score. The All-Stars had better team-work and gained more consistently, but were unable to score owing to the good defensive work of Smith and Schultz. The nearest approach to a score was when Fish, of the All-Stars, was downed on the 10-yard line after recovering a muffed punt...
...leaves New York on Monday for Cincinnati, O., where it will be entertained by the Harvard Club of that city before continuing to Memphis, Tenn., where a game will be played against Sewanee University on Wednesday. On Thursday the team will reach Nashville, Tenn., and play a game against Vanderbilt University. The third game is not, as yet, definitely decided, but will probably be with Louisiana State University at Baton Rouge, La., on Saturday, although a game with Notre Dame University at St. Louis may possibly be substituted...

Vanderbilt was well versed in the new game and completely bewildered the Yale players by its well-executed de layed passes...
...afternoon. The only team that has played both Yale and Princeton is Holy Cross. Princeton defeated Holy Cross 17 to 0, and Yale defeated the same team 12 to 0.

These conditions are almost the reverse of last year, when Yale won all its games, and Princeton lost one and tied...
Yale succeeded during the third period in rushing the ball to its opponents' 1-yard line, but Morrison of Vanderbilt secured the ball on the next play, cutting off Yale's best chance to score. Philbin caught the punt-out on the 25-yard line, and Daly made a third unsuccessful attempt at a field-goal. Yale began the fourth period by rushing the ball to Vanderbilt's 6-yard line, but was held for downs at this point. Vanderbilt then started carrying the ball through the Yale line for long gains, and with the aid of a forward pass...
