...ends. Burden and A. R. Sargent played a fast and consistent game. Campbell and Hallowell also were impregnable on the defense and entered into the offense with dash and spirit. They ran down the field under punts in perfect style. Although responsible for one or two of West Point's minor gains, J. Lawrence played better than he has at any time this season. He was cool and was not guilty of his old fault of offside play...
Harvard scored in two minutes of play. After two exchanges of kicks in Harvard's favor, Daly caught Ennis's punt and ran to West Point's thirty-yard line. Gains through the line took the ball to the fifteen yard line, and then Sawin scored on an end play. During the remainder of the half, Harvard scored a second time by steady gains through the opposing line. At no time was the Harvard goal in danger. In the second half, by the same line-bucking tactics, Harvard secured the ball several times on West Point's ten-yard line...

...game was hard fought from start to finish. Both teams were crippled because several of the best players were prevented by injuries from taking part in the game. Yale was particularly weak on the left side of the line, and it was at this point that Dartmouth directed most of her successful plays. The tackles were also below the Yale standard. Yale depended on line bucking formations, directed at the centre and tackles, but tried no end plays throughout the game. In kicking, Dartmouth would have proved equal to Yale if it had not been for poor passing by Rogers...
