...creditable and was responsible for most of the gains. It formed quickly, got away firmly, and stuck together very well. This, however, was the only part of the work which showed any improvement. The line, although strong in defense, did not put enough life into the play and seldom broke through to open holes or block punts. The backs did not stick to their interference sufficiently, gained little ground through the line, and made several costly fumbles...
...runs. All the men in the line were unsteady, and Carroll and J. Lawrence were not active enough in keeping their opponents out of the plays. Eaton opened some good holes and was faster than usual. Morse and Cutts of the second eleven did some excellent tackling, and broke up several of the first team's plays...
...line, and for the first time this season he helped the other backs to gain by mass plays. He did all of the punting, and was more successful than usual, although he made one or two poor attempts. Graydon and J. Lawrence were aggressive on the offense and easily broke through the Columbia line when punts were tried. Their defense was a little weak. The three centre men, Barnard, Sargent and Lee, did the best work they have done this season, and were by no means the weak spot of the team as they have been heretofore. None...
...goal. Soon after the kick off Ellis made a well-placed punt from the middle of the field to Columbia's five-yard line. Columbia failed to gain twice and Harvard got the ball on the five yard line on Morley's poor punt. Sawin on the next play broke through right tackle again and scored the last touchdown. J. Lawrence kicked another goal from a difficult angle. From then until the end of the game Harvard played a defensive game and Columbia had the ball most of the time. They got first down only once, and the game ended...
...Thursday. He struck the line hard, fought his way through and kept his feet well. His punts were much longer and straighter than usual and he did some good interfering. The improvement in Barnard's and Lee's playing was the most noticeable part of the practice. They both broke through their opponents constantly and played well together on the defense. Graydon had B. G. Waters '95 for an opponent and made a good showing against him, as the backs were enabled to make several good gains through that position. Farley, Ristine and Campbell were still slow in getting down...
