...Kuehn at right tackle and W. Ticknor at right guard in the team A lineup two days in succession. Harvard's line problem seems to be solved, for the Florida game at least.

It was the line's failure to make openings which sealed the doom of the Harvard running attack and the Crimson passers were hurried by the India linemen sifting through the porous...
