...freshmen defeated the Fall River High School eleven on Jarvis Field Saturday afternoon in a game characterized by miserable tackling and loose playing generally. Kendricken, Frothingham and Dunn were the only men who tackled effectively and the freshmen were able to run up a large score against the visitors only because of their heavier rush line. The High School team did not play as good a game as it had been expected they would; during the last half they were badly demoralized, and played without spirit...
...Cummings was forced across the line, and the goal was kicked Score 16-0. The visitors now braced in their play, and aided by poor tackling by the freshmen, forced the ball into Harvard's territory. It took the freshmen fifteen minutes again to work the ball down the field, but at 3.39 Davis was again pushed across the line. Goal. Score 22-0. Soon after the ball had been put in play J. Borden was disqualified for slugging, and Gray took his place. Just before time was called Davis secured a touchdown. The try for a goal...
...half began at 4.03, Fall River tried playing a kicking game, and succeeded in keeping the ball away from their goal for a time. S.

Fall River again punted; Broughton secured the ball, and in two rushes brought in near the line; Davis found a hole at 4.19, and scored; score...
...time for the freshman game with Yale draws nearer the interest of the class in the work of the eleven seems to diminish. Day after day the men play on Divinity field and few of the class are patriotic enough to go out and encourage them. Even at Saturday's game very few spectators were present. This apathy is very discouraging to the captain, coaches and players who are doing their best to produce an eleven which will make a good showing against Yale...
...football game is not to be the only Harvard-Yale contest in Spring field on the 23rd. The interest of that day is to be supplemented by a match between the shooting teams of the two universities. Arrangements for the match are almost completed, and it is to come off in the morning. Last year the first Harvard-Yale clay pigeon match ever held was shot in Cambridge or rather at the clubs shooting grounds at Watertown, and our team won the honor of being the only Harvard 'varsity team that succeeded in lowering the blue...
