...claw-marks of the Tiger have not yet healed. Yet for that reason Yale, always a fighting organization, will fight harder than ever. It is Harvard's job to smother the grim, determined blue-jerseyed eleven, and we have faith that the Harvard machine can do it. The Crimson team has the driving, smashing power of a locomotive. Whether Yale can stop it remains to be seen...
...presents an undefeated team against the strong Yale eleven today, having won seven and tied one game, amassing a total of 212 points to its opponents' 10. Princeton, by a touchdown and field goal in the game two weeks ago, has been the only team to score of the Crimson. With the downfall of Colgate and Dartmouth last Saturday, Harvard became the only eastern eleven of importance to approach the completion of its season with a clean record...
...first game of the season, on September 27, the Crimson eleven over-whelmed the Bates College team by a 53 to 0 score. The Maine boys put up a plucky fight but the greater weight and experience of the home team counted heavily against them.

Horween Occ. were deciding factors in the game...

S. Humphrey '21, and A. D. Hamilton...

During the second half a series of criss-cross plays took the Brown football machine from their own 25-yard line to the University's 22-yard mark before the Crimson men could stop the onrush. J. K. Ryan Occ and P. D. Steele '20 in the end berths, accounted for many brilliant plays. R. M. Sedgwick '21 and Hamilton were largely responsible in stopping their opponents' advance. It was during this game that Horween dislocated his collar bone...
