...brilliant rushing of Swann soon secured another touchdown on line plays. Stillman kicked the goal. Craig-head kicked off to Daly, who ran well to his own 40-yard line. Stillman scored on a fake kick, by hard rushing and clever use of interference, but missed the goal...
...unbeaten. The Harvard eleven had fought their way up to Yale's goal-line, and almost where they had been baffled two years before, again could not carry the ball two yards to victory. And Yale, rarely changing her cool, defensive position, kept the ball out of danger by brilliant kicking. That Yale did not play to win was apparent.

Kendall is a brilliant line bucker and Sawin dodges well, and Ellis's strength is in line plunging, although he is apt to fumble...
