All through the game Harvard was continually forced to punt, simply because of an attack which was so slow in starting and so poorly protected that the Pennsylvania forwards were able to break it up before it had gathered sufficient power to prove formidable.

The work of putting into shape the cross country course on Soldiers Field will begin today...
