...result of the three games played and of the line-ups in practice, the defense of the Harvard eleven is, for this time of year, reasonably strong. In yesterday's practice of fifteen minutes the second eleven was given the ball half the time to test the first eleven. With the possible exception of right end, which was weakened by the absence of Hallowell, there was no place in the line where the second made consistent gains. The tackles were much improved. J. Lawrence, although against weaker opponents than on Saturday, was much steadier than usual, and proved...
Ellis played at right halfback in Kendall's place. Although a powerful rusher and one to be connted on for consistent gains, he is careless about holding the ball. He lost the ball twice yesterday within fifteen yards of the goal line. Parker, the other halfback, played his usual plucky game, and Campbell was a great factor in steadying the line. The latter was especially strong in running down the field on kicks...

As a result of Outland's fumble, Cuddy, Brown's left end, picked up the ball and scored on a thirty yard run. U. of P. also scored her six points in the first half. In nearly every feature but line-bucking Pennsylvania's play was at least approximated by that of her opponent. Her back's, Reugenberg and Coombs, showed very little superiority in punting over Bates...
