...loss and Harvard finally secured the ball on a punt on Wesleyan's 40 yard line. Kernan then went around right end behind good interference for the fourth touchdown. Barnard kicked goal. Harvard, 24; Wesleyan, 0. The last touchdown was made by forcing the ball 90 yards straight down the field. Most of this distance was covered by Knowles, who took Kernan's place at left halfback and made two runs of more than 30 yards each. On the last one, he was tackled just under the goal posts and Leatherbee made the touchdown on the next play. Marshall completed...
...four touchdowns were made in rapid succession and by straight football. The first was made by Kernan after two end plays and four line plunges had brought the ball to the 7 yard line. Knowles, Meier and Foster then went in as backs. A poor punt of the second eleven gave the first a chance to score the second touchdown in three plays from the 35 yard line. Marshall made the third score on a 70 yard run from a blocked kick, and the last touchdown was made on rushes by Kernan, Stillman and Foster from the second team...
...practice yesterday was a slight improvement over the work of the past week. One touchdown was made by the University team by straight plays from the 25 yard line. Foster was tried on the first eleven, and ran well, although on the defense he failed to get into the plays quickly. The plays were run off with more snap but the backs were slow at times and the whole team was unsteady...
...stand. Two attempts to pierce the left side of the line were unsuccessful, and on the fourth down Leatherbee tried to circle left end. He failed to gain, however, and the ball was given to Bowdoin. Marshall received Munro's punt at the thirty-yard line and again by straight rushes the ball was brought to Bowdoin's three-yard line. Graydon was given the ball to carry over but in the midst of the scrimmage there was a fumble, and as the ball rolled out. Porter, Bowdoin's right end, picked it up, and, with both teams behind...
...plays by the first eleven were enough to score the first touchdown. On the kick-off by Marshall, Ives fumbled, and the second eleven was forced to punt from behind the goal. The ball went almost straight upwards and was secured by the first team on the opponent's ten-yard line. A plunge through right tackle by Leatherbee put the ball within a few feet of the line and Graydon easily made a touchdown. The try for goal passed too far to the right. On the next kick-off Graydon ran the ball in to the thirty-five yard...
