...three quarters was practically a repetition of the first, the freshmen playing a sharp, progressive game and Quincy playing in a very listless manner. In five minutes Woodman secured a touchdown. Holden next obtained the ball and kicked a pretty goal from the field. After this there followed in quick succession touchdowns by Porter, Balch, Holden, Fargo and Woodman, four of which resulted in goals. The ball was close to Quincy's goal when time was called. Score, Harvard 69, Adams Academy...

...Last Wednesday I saw Yale play. They played a quick game and unfair in the highest degree. They do not put the ball in play right even in the centre of the field and when the half-backs run the rushers run ahead and interfere with the tacklers. They tackle poorly, one Rutgers halfback making a touchdown through the whole Yale rush line. They ought to have scored only 40 points, but the Rutgers back, a little man who was scared to death, when the ball was kicked over the back line, would walk up to the ball and pick...

...blustering for the men who went to see the foot ball game on the Union grounds and a strong wind favored one side and hindered the other. The Techs had the first kick-off and the ball was put in play at 3.16 P. M. They succeeded by a quick rally in carrying the ball some distance towards the Harvard goal, but then lost it. The man who next got it was Bemis, who made a beautiful rush and worked the ball close up to the other end of the field. Kent tried for goal but failed. The ball...

...playing matches all the summer and fall. The game was called at about 4 P. M. Harvard kept the ball most of the time at the Cambridge goal but failed to score through poor team work. Later the Cambridge men got the ball near the Harvard goal and by quick work on their part and poor work by our defense they scored two goals in the last few minutes of the first half-hour...

...drill himself into deeping away from the line if he tries. Holden ought to be careful, too, not to jump into the air when tackled ; that simply makes it easier to be tackled low, and makes it harder to push men off. Littauer is so quick and active that it seems strange to see him spoil his play by high tackling. Homans is slow about throwing himself into a man or onto the ball...
