...game against Williams on Saturday. Without the services of five of its most valuable men the Tiger eleven by means of simple, straight football battered out a 27 to 0 victory over the lighter team from the Berkshires. Williams, though outweighed and outclassed, nevertheless, withstood staunchly the Tigers' attack in the first half and held the victors to a single touchdown.

Wood '16 at right inside forward shot two of the goals, and R. C. Cooke...

It was an 82-yard march made by short but sure advances, a flash of that plow-like attack that has been used so gloriously by past Harvard teams...
