...Forbes '92, J. E. N. Shaw '98 and B. G. Waters '95 did some general coaching. The second eleven was given more practice in the guards-back formation, and in the game it used this play a great deal. It was well executed but was usually stopped for no gain. Sargent and J. Lawrence of the first eleven were the most noticeable in the defensive work. On the offense the first eleven did fairly well, scoring three touchdowns in the two halves. The team was weakened by the absence of Kendall and Kernan, both of whom have slight injuries. Sawin...
...entire Harvard team only two men, J. Lawrence and Ristine, were up to their usual form. Lawrence charged vigorously, making Wheelock the weak spot in the Carlisle team. Ristine followed the ball quickly, stopped several plays from behind and prevented gains around his end. His playing was better than that of Hallowell, who since his injury has been unable to play his position well. Eaton was a little weak at his position in defense, and Graydon, who took his place, could open no holes. The guards and centre were slow and barely held their ground against lighter men.

Potter, Hare, and McCracken made several end runs, but most of Pennsylvania's gains were...
...opening of the second half both teams found that they were unable to gain, and Stillman and Wheelock began a series of punts. Stillman's punts were longer than Wheelock's but Roberts ran them back so much that Harvard steadily lost ground. This lasted until seven minutes before the end of the game. Then Kernan took Putnam's place, and by heady running began to get through Carlisle's line for gains. After an exchange of punts Harvard got the ball on the forty-five yard line. It then seemed that Harvard could do no better than make...
...third game of the fall baseball series was won by Marean's team yesterday afternoon. Marean's team now has one game and Putnam's team, two. Three wins are necessary to gain the cups. The next game will be played Monday afternoon...
