...wetness of the ground should have made the Harvard team doubly powerful, owing to its superior weight, but the line played too high and thus sacrificed any advantage it might have had. Although the plays were hard and fast enough in the open, the backs did not put dash and vim into their work when nearing the goal line and consequently lost opportunities to score...
...squads "A" and "C." Soon after the kick-off, squad "C" was forced to punt. Several tackle plays by squad "A" aggregated about fifteen yards and then Lindsay on a plunge through left tackle got free and, dodging cleverly, ran forty yards for a touchdown. The play throughout was fast and spirited, and though it exposed several weak places in the line, it also gave the backs the opportunities to show their ability in rushing and tackling. Both teams were changed considerably in the second half, many of the men on squad "B" replacing those on squad "A." The teams...
...national championship title for the first time that it has ever been given to foreign players. As in the previous match in the international tournament Ward and Davis lost by erratic playing.

Elkins; of the 1905 team last year, is a fast player and may develop into an efficient man at quarter...
...hard biting catch so marked in the Yale crew; they do not catch hard enough or quick enough. The crew has also shown a tendency to slug and yank the oars through the water instead of sweeping them through with a long, steady pull. These faults, however, are fast becoming eradicated by coaching, and today the crew is rowing more smoothly and with more power. The crew is a strong, hard-working eight, well able to stand the strain of a four-mile race, and in the recent time rows has usually rowed the last two miles in better form...
