...schedule opened against Wesleyan on September 25, in which game one of the season's two scores against Yale was made on a drop-kick. In this and the next three games there was no necessity for strong offensive work and the defence met with little trouble. The West Point game on October 19 was the first hard test. In this game Flynn proved himself to be one of the foremost backs of the season, although his handling of punts was rather ragged.

On another, Wendell made a touchdown by a line plunge from the 15-yard line, T. Frothingham kicking the goal...

The only play which came near scoring was a forward pass from Gardner to Coolidge but the ball was brought back because the pass was illegal. Brickley later tried a drop-kick but was unsuccessful...
