  - - The results of the games last week end ran fairly true to form. was SURPRISED at Gettysburg’s 30 defeat of VDlanova. Villanova has a very strong team. Their team play last Tuesday at Princeton was remark ably good for this early in the season. so the Gettysburg team must be power full.

Princeton did trifie better than I anticipated against Amherst, though there were a lot Of weak points in the Tigers play. The Princeton players followed the ball well and showed plenty of fire and dash. Mestres is an inspiring leader, which is good fortune for us.

That New Haven boy has developed into a great triple threat. Last year he was a magnificent runner and a good punter, but not much of passer. This year his passing Is as good as his running and punting. The Blue attack on the whole was very strong. Two complete sets Of backs were used, and all showed to advantage. II Yale revealed any weakness, 1t was in its defense against the forward pass.
