...determination in the Yale eleven which soon produced another touchdown and destroyed all hopes in the Harvard team of stemming the tide of defeat. Another touchdown just before the end of the game brought the score to its final figures and gave Yale a victory which in its extent, if not in its essential features, was almost as great as the one in 1900 and requited the defeat of last year...
Those entering will be divided into sections and the winners of each section will go up to the semi-final round. Cups will be awarded to the winning pair, and the final make-up of the team to play Yale will depend to a great extent upon the individual showing made in this tournament...
...this year. The rapidity of the Dartmouth eleven's offensive play, the inability of the Harvard line to stop it, and the continual change of advantage from one side to the other combined with the many long runs and stirring tackles to make the game truly remarkable in the extent and variety of its interesting features. Every few moments there would be a run of 30 to 50 or 60 yards in length,-not around the ends, however; the playing of the ends of both teams was with some exceptions almost faultless, and gains of any appreciable distance could...

Dartmouth has developed a remarkably strong back-field, and with an attack which for speed and general ground-gaining qualities is exceptional will present a valuable test of Harvard's defense...
