...Saturday by the score of 17 to 0. Harvard had little difficulty in gaining through and outside the opposing tackles; but the centre of the Bowdoin line was very strong. Harvard showed great improvement over its work in the Bates game. O'Flaherty at quarterback and Frothingham, who took Corbett's place early in the game, played brilliantly. O'Flaherty ran the team very well, used a good selection in his plays, sent off three forward passes without a failure and made several brilliant runs. Frothingham made a sensational dodging run of 45 yards after catching a punt, and several...

V. Long as halfbacks. Long reported yesterday; he has been abroad and has just returned. N. H. Brock '12, a heavy guard...
