...mile intercollegiate was contested by the three Harvard men and Gubelman of Stevens Institute. It was won by Brown, Davis, 2nd, by a length, and Greenleaf, 3rd, by three feet.

The Harvard rushers did not get through the Williams rush line at all. This fault was partly excusable, however, on account of the slippery condition of the field. They are still weak in tackling and blocking and slow in dropping on the ball...
