...offensive the Yale eleven was unable to gain at any time and only twice had any chance whatever of scoring. Once in the first half, Stillman fumbled one of Craighead's punts, and offside by Harvard on the succeeding play gave Yale the ball on Harvard's 30-yard line. Again in the second half, both Baldwin and Stillman fumbled a punt and Wallace ran to the fifteen yard line before he was downed. Yale could not gain by direct rushing, however, and in the second half, Craighead's drop-kick for a goal was blocked and Yale's only...
...second half, every man of the original eleven except Stillman, Graydon and Sugden was replaced by a substitute, and much team play sacrificed. All the backs ran well with the ball, but were weak in handling punts. Stillman did some strong punting, and outclassed Craighead, who punted for Yale, even against the wind. His line-bucking was strong and his run of seventy yards on a fake kick was the longest of the game. Hersey did some good individual rushing, but was of little use in the interference. His substitute, Kernan, did some remarkable punting in the last few minutes...
...ends played well, Clark in running with the ball, and Bowditch in the interference. Graydon's rushing was strong and fierce, but the rest of the line played an inconspicuous game. Although their failure to block any of Craighead's punts shows a lack of aggressive play, they were often penalized for offside...
...practice of the Freshman team yesterday afternoon was again secret. After the preliminary work of starts, kicking and falling on the ball, the first eleven lined up against the second. Only one short half of about twenty minutes was played, the first eleven scoring three times. McGrew and Derby were back again on the field, but only the former played against the second. There were three or four changes in the line-up, but these may not be permanent. McDonald was put at left end, McGrew back at left tackle, Riggs in Jones's place at right guard and Swann...
...Freshman football practice yesterday consisted in a short half played against the second eleven. The defensive work of the first team was very good, the second eleven being unable to score, although given the ball most of the time. Drop and place kicks again played an important part in the practice, and Stillman kicked some goals from the field. Throughout the half the men were coached individually and collectively by Dibblee, Parker, Reid, Hallowell and others...
