...Chase were in good form, and played a strong and unfaltering game. They seemed to play more with the idea of tiring out their opponents, although many of their returns were beautifully done. They did not seem to tire at all, where as Tallant and Lee showed the effect of the first set, and were visibly tired out in the last two. Their chief fault was a slow return, and generally into their opponent's hands. Tallant was the quicker of the two and did some brilliant work, especially at the beginning. Lee played more carelessly and with less snap...

...Andover's rush line was especially strong for an Academy team; but the backs did not take advantage of all the opportunities which the forwards afforded them. Cox and Hinkey played splendidly on the ends of the Andover line, and Townsend, Colt and Knapp rushed with telling effect. Sheffield also played well at quarter back for Andover; he kept his rushers at work sharply, and tackled strongly...

...Norton's field yesterday afternoon the seniors beat the juniors by a score of 10 to 0. The seniors had the heavier team and used their rush line to very good effect. The junior's backs played well, but they were not well supported by the rush line which let the '91 men get through.

...well into Harvard's territory. But at such times the line never failed to force their opponents back. Upton, Cranston, Newell and Hallowell all did good, steady work; Upton did some of the prettiest tackling seen on the field this year, and both he and Newell rushed with telling effect. Hallowell handled Leo easily; he never failed to get down the field when the ball was kicked, and effectually stopped every effort to send men around his end with the ball. Wesleyan forced Harvard to play a kicking game. Hall's long punts repeatedly sent the ball away from...
