...playing tackles, and Bovaird and S. Mowry on the ends, is especially formidable. Back of the line DeHart is playing a game at quarter which has caused him to be compared very favorably with Beecher in his best days. Speir and Mowry are both rushing strongly; they keep their feet well, and Mowry especially is a very deceptive dodger. Kell seldom fails to get his foot on the ball when it is passed back to be kicked, no matter how closely he is pressed. The tackling of the whole team is hard, clean and sure; they have a knack...

The '93 men, however, were unable to gain the necessary five yards, and the ball again went to '94 on four downs. Time was called with '94 having...
...freshman class games on Holmes Field yesterday afternoon were decidedly a success. The events were fairly well contested, and the records as a rule were good. In the running broad jump E. B. Bloss made a record of 21 feet 10 inches, beating the Harvard record by 3 inches. The list of the entries would have been larger had more of the men been able to find the Secretary...
