...almost every case handled the ball cleanly. The back-field was rather erratic, at times too slow in starting, and at other times starting before the ball. They ran hard, though it was more through individual brilliancy then team work, that they made their gains. P. D. Smith, Corbett and Frothingham were the best ground gainers, Smith doing especially well...
...kick-off at the north end of the field. O'Flaherty ran in the kick-off 12 yards to the 27-yard line. Bates was offside on the first play, and Corbert punted to Bates's 50-yard line. G. G. Browne recovered the ball when Bates fumbled. Corbett failed to gain outside tackle, but P. D. Smith gained fourteen yards through centre. After two line plays, O'Flaherty tried a forward pass, but was tackled before he could get the ball away and fumbled, Keaney recovering the ball for Bates. The wing shift, a play planned to catch...
...Flaherty '10 is a heavy and exceedingly fast man and seems to be developing rapidly. S. Galatti '10, substitute quarter last year, and R. B. Wigglesworth '12 are also doing fast work. The back-field is fairly well settled with H. C. Leslie '11 and H. F. Corbett '11, two of the halfbacks on last year's team, and W. M. Minot '11, who was ineligible last fall but played fullback on the second team throughout the season. In addition H. B. Sprague '11, also an "H" man, J. G. B. Perkins '11, T. Frothingham, Jr., '12, of last year...

Minot is sure to prove a valuable player in the backfield, whether he plays half or fullback. Last fall he was not in good academic standing, but played a strong defensive game on the second eleven, and his line-plunging was one of the features of the practice scrimmages. Corbett and Leslie will probably be the halfbacks. Both are fast, run well through a broken field, and are consistent ground gainers. Sprague, who played against Yale, and Frothingham and Winston of the 1912 team are the substitutes. The hardest task that confronts the coaches is the development of a quarterback...
