...playing of the ends was particularly good, especially that of Smith, who did whirlwind work in getting down the field under punts and in catching Potter's passes. At tackle Gardiner and Hitchcock time and again caught the Brown runners from behind, while Fisher repeated his impregnable defence of the right guard position. At quarterback Potter ran the team without a fault and his punts easily outdistanced those of his opponent, Sprackling. As a field general there appeared little choice between the two. Both took many chances, Potter making four forward passes and Sprackling six, and each was successful...
...substitutes resumed the straight football program. Morrison appeared as the greatest ground gainer at this point with a beautiful dodging run of 45 yards through the entire second team. Pierce carried the ball over from the 3-yard line. Following this score, the second team punted from behind the line to Callander who let the ball slip from his hands and it was recovered by the opposing ends. In spite of this loss, the substitutes took the ball on downs and Morrison repeated his open field work by scoring on a well-executed 32-yard...

Auburn street a half-length behind, rowing a much slower stroke, but in the last stretch there was not enough power in either the Weld or Mt. Auburn street boats to keep them up. The Randolph men had a great deal of power, but wasted it rowing a high stroke against the head wind. After Harvard...
...start this race split up into two sections, the first section a procession of three crews with Hampden-Dunster continually gaining on the other two, and the second section a race in which Fairfax bumped Holyoke street just after rounding the last bend. The second section were far behind the first when the bumping took place...
