...again and again. If a man, by repeated blows about the head and particularly on the jaw, has been visibly dazed, he is the man to attack at the next onset. If in the last encounter a player has been obviously lamed in leg or arm or shoulder, the brunt of an early attack should fall on him. As a corollary to this principle, it is justifiable for a player, who is in good order, to pretend that he is seriously hurt, in order that, he may draw the opponent's attack to the wrong place. These rules of action...
...poor pass from centre. Randall played a hard, reliable game, Montgomery, pitted against an end of national reputation, played his position with credit, and Matthews was fast in getting down under kicks, deadly in tackling and effective in breaking up interference. Derby and Brill bore the brunt of Yale's attack in the first half and both contested every inch gained through them. Squires at guard was one of the strongest men in the line and at tackle was still more effective. White played aggressively and with splendid spirit, and Parker at centre passed well and was not outplayed...

...showing against Glass, who filled one of the strongest places in Yale's line. Scarcely a gain was made through this position on the Harvard team, and once at a critical time, Marshall broke through and tackled one of Yale's trick plays for a loss. Barnard bore the brunt of Yale's attack during the larger part of the game and though it was a severe task, did it commendably. Knowlton and Shea proved themselves to be effective tackles, both defensively and in carrying the ball. Putnam made a number of Harvard's gains outside of tackle...
