...followed by a long forward pass, Casey to Coolidge, which gained 20 yards. The period ended at this moment. As soon as the second quarter started Casey broke through for a 15-yard run for the University's first touchdown. Robinson's attempt at a goal, from a difficult angle, failed...
...this year that Harvard will match last year's efficiency in the final games, regardless of results. Nevertheless, it should be remembered that last year a great Harvard team, playing the poorest of football, was beaten by Cornell. It is the writer's opinion that it will not be difficult for Harvard this year to play a better game against the Ithancans than was shown by the 1915 eleven in that game...
...Zander at the end positions are good men, but cannot fill those places as did Shelton and Eckley. Brown is at centre, filling the place left vacant by the graduation of Cool. The remainder of the team are veterans of last year's championship eleven. The line will be difficult for the University to penetrate, but the backs should not prove as dangerous as those of Barrett's team...
...altogether difficult to fathom the logic which gives Nassau an edge on Yale. As a matter of fact--basing judgment of course upon what has actually been shown--Yale has a much more varied offense than the Tigers, and a defence which is, I think, just as good. The Elis have done their share of fumbling, but they would have had to do more than their share to equal Princeton in this respect.

It isn't likely the Crimson will produce anything elaborate on attack; it's difficult to see how she can. Cornell, judging from the Bucknell game, isn't as far along as she'd like to be, either. Trouble on the ends has stayed the forward rush of the eleven. So far as making or breaking Harvard is concerned, the game may do the same for Cornell...
