...backfield, the advantage undoubtedly rests with the visitors. Cap- tain Barrett is a vastly more experienced field general than any of Coach Haughton's quarterbacks, and in his punting, drop-kicking, and open-field running he has a reputation which puts him in a class with Mahan. Collins, Shiverick, and Mueller present a well-balanced trio of skillful runners and strong defence men, and even with Mahan in the line-up Harvard cannot hope with its crippled backfield to meet these men on even terms. The break of the game will very probably depend on how well the two elevens...
...star of the team. His generalship, broken-field running, and punting (he is usually considered good for 60 yards) putting him almost in a class by himself. The light and speedy Colling, who scored three times against Williams, will be found at left halfback, while Shiverick, a punter and drop-kicker of no mean ability will fill the other halfback position. Mueller will doubtless play fullback, for he is not only a consistent and vicious line plunger, but a most reliable secondary defense...

Team B held team A throughout the scrimmage to one perfect drop-kick by Bond until the last minute when Bond crossed the line for Team A's only touchdown. Team B gained almost as much ground as team A which seemed out of form after the game with Andover last Saturday...
Today is the last day in the first half-year upon which undergraduates, special students, unclassified students, and out-of-course students may drop courses of study without liability for additional charge.

The full payment for additional courses will be charged if a petition is not filed. No courses chosen last May, and beginning the first half-year may be changed except for an important reason, such as a change in the Elective Pamphlet...
...feature of the drill was the successful drop-kicking of Captain Mahan, Robinson, and Whitney. This form of attack was the only one used from scoring position, and the large number of successive goals from the 20, 25, 30, and 35-yard lines would seem to indicate that great stress is to be laid on this method of scoring. Captain Mahan went through the drill with but one error, and that from the 45-yard line. His kicking was remarkably consistent...
