Behind the line, Marshall, Kernan and Graydon should hold their positions. L. J. Daly '03 and D. A. Baldwin '03 seem to be the next strongest candidates for quarter, with the chances in favor of the former, whose strength on the offense and ability to drop-kick more than offset the latter's strong defensive work. T. G. Meier '04 and D. D. L. McGrew '03 are strong, but slow candidates for fullback, and R. Derby '03, J. A. Knowles '03, G. L. Jones '03, A. W. Swann '03 and O. C. Mackay '04 are reliable halfbacks. It is possible...
...yard line. The Freshmen were then forced to punt, but regained the ball on downs at the centre of the field. Short bucks and end runs finally carried the ball to the 25 yard line. Here the Sophomores put up a strong defense and Bolton attempted a drop-kick for goal but failed. After the kick-out, a fumble gave the ball to the Sophomores, but they were unable to gain, and lost it to the Freshmen on downs. Another fumble, however, again put the Sophomores on the offensive at the centre of the field. A 13 yard run around...
...well under punts; but allowed himself to be blocked off too much by the interference. Clark got down quickly on punts and tackled well. Marshall played a sure game at quarterback and used judgment in running plays. Daly, who took his place, besides running the team well, made a drop-kick goal from the 30 yard line. He was slow in getting away his punts. Graydon was the only one of the backs who could gain ground steadily. Putnam punted poorly and did not follow his interference closely. Derby, Jones and Devens gained some ground at times, but were...
...fumbled the ball, but Fincke recovered it. An exchange of punts and a twenty-yard run by Fincke gave Harvard the ball on her thirty-five yard line. Here Harvard tried the double pass the Bloomer got the ball for Yale. Yale could not gain, and Sharpe tried a drop-kick goal from the forty-yard line. He missed it by about ten feet. Stillman on a free punt sent the ball to the centre of the field. Then a large series of line plunges by Bloomer, Stillman and Hale took the ball gradually to the fifteen-yard line...
...several minutes after the kick-off the second kept the ball most of the time in order to give the first some defensive drill. Finally W. R. Lawrence fumbled a punt on his own thirty-five yard line and Campbell fell on it. Sawin and Kendall then carried the ball along by short gains until Sawin broke through for the touchdown. J. Lawrence kicked the goal. After this touchdown the first eleven improved somewhat on the offensive, and Kendall and Sawin made consecutive gains, though Ellis was not effective. Sawin soon kicked a drop-kick goal from the twenty-five...
