...year is unusually bright, judging from the material which will be available at the beginning of the season of 1903, as only three of, the eleven regular men on this year's university team will be lost by graduation, namely, Captain G. B. Chadwick,. left halfback; H. C. Holt, center, and G. A. Goss, right guard. In all, twenty-six men who have played on the university or scrub teams this fall will be in college and eligible for 1903, exclusive of this year's freshman eleven, which contained some promising material...
...times to play high. At guard, A. Marshall is a man of good physique and has had considerable experience, but from his lack of watchfulness and fight seems often to take an indifferent part in the play. The team has been unfortunate in losing a player who has filled center so well all the season as has King. In his place neither Sugden nor Lyon has shown much ability; Force is a rather uncertain player, but one who may be relied upon perhaps more thoroughly than either of the other men. Right halfback has been a very hard position...
...sensational features of the game appeared at the very start when Putnam ran in Dartmouth's kickoff straight through the midst of both teams and was not brought down until he had passed the center of the field and completed a 53 yards gain to Dartmouth's 42-yard line. There was fumble on the next play, but the ball was recovered by Daly, and Mills then broke through left tackle for a 34 yards run to within 8 yards of the goal. Two short gains brought the ball to the 2-yard line and a touchdown seemed imminent...
...backs kept their feet better while advancing the ball. Three of the touchdowns were made on straight rushing and one on a kick blocked behind the second team's goal line. The longest run was made by Coburn who secured the ball on a quarterback kick at the center of the field and reached the 10 yard line before he was caught by Trott. The line-ups follow: Jones, Matthews, l.e. r.e., Crocker, Sawyer, Macdonald Shea, Bleakie, l.t. r.t., Oveson, J. Lawrence, Lehmann Marshall, Hovey, l.g. r.g., Wilder, Burden, Bouve King, Lyon, c. c., Sugden Barnard, Coburn, r.g. l.g., Whitwell...
Barnard, at guard, is the only member of last year's team left in the center of the line, and to fill the positions left vacant by Blagden, Cutts, Sargent, Greene, and Lee, there seems to be no one of more than average ability. Wright, however, has had some experience and with King, Hovey, Knowlton, Shea, and O'Connell, should help to form a strong line. Sugden might be a likely man except for his tendency to get hurt, a misfortune which has already put him out of the game for the present. On the whole, the material...
