...season, defeated the Yale freshmen, on Saturday, by a score of fifty-four to nothing. The Harvard team was superior to its opponents in every point of the game, and showed the effects of better coaching and training. After the first two touchdowns had been secured, the Yale defense broke down completely and the subsequent scoring was due as much to the wretched tackling of the Yale team, as to the fast running of the Harvard backs...
...coaches, who have spent most of their time working on the 'Varsity. The past week's hard and very satisfactory practice, however, will doubtless find Yale prepared to play a strong game. Yet it is certain that the team is considerably weakened by the loss of Wilhelmi, fullback, who broke his collar-bone in the Princeton freshman game last Saturday.

Slowly but steadily the Seniors advanced the ball, about the middle of the first half, from the centre of the field to within a yard or two of 1901's goal line. On the third down, Shaw broke through the centre for the remaining short distance. Continued hammering in the same half also brought about the second touchdown, which Lowrie finally made around the end. The single touchdown of the second half was the prettiest play of the game. Brown, finding his way between centre and guard, and passing Hardy...
