...past two years, at least, no Harvard team has presented such weak resistance to straight rushing. In 1912, Crowther of Brown got away on a slippery field for a run of 45 yards across the Harvard goal; Princeton also scored a touchdown, but on a forward pass. In 1913, a Holy Cross player picked up a fumbled punt with no one between him and the goal. In the Cornell game, the opponents were able to make a touchdown by straight rushes from the 40-yard line, but this was against a substitute line-up, and the only time during...
Lehigh came through the first half of the game against Yale with a 3 to 0 lead, but Yale rallied in splendid style in the latter part of the game, carrying the ball across the line three times after successions of line plunges, end runs and forward passes. Yale put a crippled team in the field; Wilson, the veteran quarter, was out of the lineup, as was Ainsworth, halfback, Pumpelly, whose knee is again bothering him, and Van Holt, the guard who has been playing as well. Legore and Waite, a 155-pound quarterback, showed up splendidly. Knowles, Yale...
Team A's alert defense against the forward pass resulted in two of the touchdowns. Bradlee and Mahan each intercepted the ball and got clear for a long run across the second's goal line. The other touchdowns came on straight line rushing from simple formations. Brickley's lone drop kick was made from the 25-yard line. The first team followed the ball persistently and twice recovered the ball within scoring distance when the second's backs fumbled punts. Bradlee carried the ball more than usually yesterday but the extra work seemed to make no difference in his brilliant...
...first secret practice of the season the University football squad had a long, hard, work-out, yesterday, afternoon. First, Team A, and later Team B lined up against the plucky seconds in a scrimmage which lasted over 45 minutes. Team A scored three touchdowns and a field goal across the line Team B scored one touchdown, holding the seconds scoreless...
...over for team B's first score. It was in this period also that McKinlock negotiated a difficult drop standing on the 42-yard line. On the next kickoff, Rollins made a run-back of 42 yards, and followed it by a dash from the middle of the field across the goal. This spectacular run ended the scoring. In the fourth period, the ball see-sawed uneventfully, usually well back in Bates' territory...
