During the second period, Harvard was twice within Yale's 35-yard line, but a 15-yard penalty in one instance and in the other an onside kick, which Yale recovered, prevented any scoring. Just before this penalty, Wendell had replaced Felton, and in five rushes Harvard had carried the ball from her 43-yard line to Yale's 34-yard line. Previous to the unsuccessful onside kick from Yale's 30-yard line, Harvard had made another long march of 60 yards from her 20-yard line. Harvard showed its real strength and versatility of its attack in this...
...third period, Yale was never closer than 52 yards to Harvard's goal, while Harvard missed two excellent chances to score. From her 48-yard line, the University team carried the ball to Yale's 27-yard line, but lost it on a poor forward pass. Yale could not gain in three rushes and Harvard get the short kick on Yale's 38-yard line. After two rushes had advanced the ball five yards, Lewis, standing on the 34-yard line, tried a drop-kick, but it fell short and Yale got the ball...
...improvement in its method of attack was evident. New football was used almost entirely, much ground being gained by wide end runs and delayed passes. The forward pass was also used with success. Touchdowns were made by Kilpatrick and Strout, while Daly kicked a goal from the 12-yard line. The best individual work was done by Daly and Howe, who played fullback for the first time this year...
...Open play was immediately introduced again, and the results of this change in tacties were evident by the excellent showing against Princeton. A new shift play was introduced in which the tackles play back, and just before the ball is passed rush in the the one side of the line or the other, making it difficult for the opposing line to shift in time to meet the attack. This play met with marked success against Princeton...
...individual players, Yale has a line from tackle to tackle that has shown its ability to stand severe hammering by its oponents. Thus the like lihood of Yale's being scored upon by the straight line-bucking game is very remote. For ends Yale has two stars in Kilpairick and Bomeisler, who have been handicapped by injuries, but who are in shape for the Harvard game. At quarterback Yale is weak. Strout, Merritt and Corey are not capable of filling Howe's place, and the latter has returned to his old position, still playing as much as possible the position...
