...tackle to tackle, was superb. The two ends, Coolidge and Harte, did fine work on attack and defence. They were good, if not brilliant, on downfield work, and did acceptably, if not brilliantly, in protecting their wings. All things considered, the rival lines had pretty much of an even break of it. The Harvard backfield, aside from kicking, was superior to the Princeton backfield. Harvard did her share of ballchanging and thimble-rigging on attack, but found her most consistent gains arising from straightaway thrusts and sharp slants.

It is the power of rising form delicate nothings to real emotions with the break between so manages as to give the greatest effect. The audience is prepared by the first two acts for some clever and dainty trifle in the third, but the audience finds itself very near tears as it watches an act of high beauty and real poetry.

...back and placed a pretty drop kick directly between the goal posts. Both teams punted for the remainder of the period, but when C. A. Coolidge, Jr., '17 tackled Shiverick as he was catching one of Horween's punts, he fumbled, and W. H. Wheeler '18 recovered. This first break in favor of the University resulted indirectly in a touchdown, for it was followed by a long forward pass, Casey to Coolidge, which gained 20 yards. The period ended at this moment. As soon as the second quarter started Casey broke through for a 15-yard run for the University...
