...University defense too strong for consistent ground-gaining. The crimson eleven, however, proved to possess a powerful attack, and during the course of the play scored four touchdowns and a dropkick. Enwright was the first man to score, for when the seconds had held the regulars twice on their one-yard line, he took the ball and managed to drive his way through between the goal-posts for a touchdown, although the stubborn resistence offered by Captain Selden's team was such that the ball was placed just barely over the line. End runs contributed the other three touchdowns, Captain...
After the seconds had spent some minutes after the opening of the scrimmage in trying to puncture Team A's defence, the ball was given to the latter eleven on its own one-yard line. The first play advanced the ball four yards, while the second saw the longest run of the season on Soldiers Field. Brickley found a weak spot in the middle of the opposing line, eluded the second team's backfield with the aid of good interference, and ran the intervening 95 yards for a touchdown. Mahan also got away for an unusually long gain, scoring...
...still far from perfect, and the work of the ends poor, there was noticeable improvement in the line. The scrubs could make no steady gains, their plunges being repeatedly thrown back. They scored once, however, when a thirty-yard end run by Hammond brought the ball to the one-yard line, and a rush by Thompson, the former all-Western star, carried it across...
...start of play it appeared as through Dartmouth was to have thing all its own way. After rushing the ball to the one-yard line, Llewellyn, at quarterback, made the first of Dartmouth's many costly fumbles, preventing a score until the next period. Princeton then rallied and with a combination of splendid and runs and deplanes through the heavy Dartmouth line scored a touchdown, but failed to even up the score by missing the attempt at a goal. Baker, however, made a beautiful kick from placement a moment later...
...second period as the culmination of a long series of line rushes. His attempt at a goal from an easy angle, however, went wild. Yale had one other really good opportunity to score in the third quarter as a result of several line plunges and a well-executed forward pass from Spalding to Flynn. But the Army held for three downs and on the fourth recovered a fumble on the one-yard line. Hobbs quickly punted out of danger...
