...mention for Yale are McClung and Heffelfinger, the former's running and tackling being especially good, while for Harvard, Cumnock, Newell, Lee, Corbett and Dean did the best work. All of Harvard's points were made within five minutes time and the sight of a team, with almost inevitable defeat staring them in the face, making a touch-down against an eleven flushed with victory and straining every effort to keep them from scoring, was an exhibition of dogged pluck and undismaved determination which was worth travelling miles to see and of which every Yale man may feel justly proud...

In the second game Yale had greatly improved in her play but could defeat the Middletown men by a score of only 34-0. In the Wesleyan line Leo has been playing a very strong game at end-rush. Hildreth and Bickford have also been doing good work. Back of the line the visitors will present two men well known to most Harvard football enthusiasts...
