...other regular who will not face the Crusaders is W. D. Ticknor '30. Ticknor, like French, has completely recovered from a minor injury, but he has had no work this week, and it is felt that he can stand the additional rest without detriment. A shake-up in the forward wall is necessitated by Ticknor's absence, with J. N. Trainer '31, moving over to right guard to fill his position, J. E. Barrett '30 taking left guard, who in turn will be replaced by T. H. Alcock...
...game with Pennsylvania once again demonstrated Harvard's weakness in the forward passing department and much of the coaches' time with the squad this week, and next, will undoubtedly be devoted to developing and perfecting the much-needed aerial attack. It has been rumored that a shakeup in the backfield combination will be one of the first steps in this direction and this afternoon's practice session should undoubtedly reveal the nature of this shift.

...game, although loosely played, was exciting all the way through, being characterized by many long runs and forward passes. The passing combination of T. H. Peirce '31 and R. B. Covel '29 worked well, with the latter on the receiving end. Robert Gilmor '31, who was the individual star of the game, made the third touchdown on a brilliant 35 yard run. T. H. Morris '29 made the fourth tally on an off-tackle play. G. L. Lewis '30 kicked two of the points after touchdown...
...forward pass plays tried by the Crimson against the Red and Blue there were enough potential receivers scattered about the field to reveal the foundations of a sound and workable pass offense. But a lack of finish, a tendency on the part of the receiver to fight the ball, spoiled the effectiveness of this mode of gaining ground. With greater attention to detail, the Harvard passing game should become a threat against the Blue of Yale...
