...team. The rush line work of the freshmen, especially during the first half, was excellent. The whole line played steadily, and Hallowell, Upton and Ellsworth aroused enthusiasm again and again by their brilliant work in breaking through the opposing line and tackling. Back of the line Kendricken played a cool, steady game at quarter, passing well and tackling finely. Fearing made a great many long runs around the end, and Frothingham broke through the Yale line for shorter gains. At full-back Trafford played with great judgement and coolness. His kicking, rushing and blocking were features of the game...
...truth of the charges; Harvard simply washes her hand of those whose honesty is even questioned. The second criticism is that it would have been much better to have waited until the Princeton match and victory were old and the undergraduates' blood had had a chance to cool. I have already said that such a course seems much the wiser. Although there may be unfairness to Princeton still the instinct of self-preservation is paramount. Now, after all, is Princeton entitled to so very much consideration? It is, of course, most unfortunate, that Harvard's record in the past...
...Townsend, '91, are trying for the position. McClintock is the fastest runner on the team but is slow in dropping on the ball. Townsend is fast, gets down field well and is an earnest worker. Wurtemberg, M. S., will play quarterback as last year. He is very cool, but is not passing well. Graves, '91, will probably play full back. The candidates for halfback are S. N. Morrison, '92, who played half on the '92 team; Harvey, who played during a half of the Princeton game last fall, McClung and McBride. The men as yet play poorly together...
...poor. In the field the work was better though by no means steady. The infield men were inclined to interfere with each other, and the backing-up was not so strong as it should have been. The team as a whole, however, deserves praise for its work which was cool at critical points. The nine was unfortunate at the first in losing the regular catcher, who broke a finger. Bell filled his place creditably, but his arm was in such a condition that the Yale men stole bases with impanity. Hawley pitched exceedingly well. In the ninth inning he saved...
...yards dash and the 220 yards dash, although Lee and Moen of Harvard, may push him hard. Shearman, '89 has twice won the broad jump, and once the pole vault. He has improved in both these events this year, having vaulted 10 feet 5 inches recently. He is a cool man, and is sure to do as well, if not better, in competion than in practice...
