...Harvard in rushing with a rush line of a gross weight even more disproportionate to Harvard's than Yale's, which from the start of the match was crippled by the loss of the most powerful and skilled rusher of it. But the Harvard-Princeton game was certainly a splendid demonstration of what the rushing of a heavy team can do when it is not exactly provided against. The possibilities, however, of the defensive ability of a light team have been indicated by the fact that Princeton's line checked Yale's attempts at rushing with less difficulty than Harvard...
