...Freshmen made but three first downs. Near the opening of the first period Reynolds made 25 yards through a broken field before he was thrown, and at the end of the final period Sortwell made a gain of 37 yards. The Freshmen played a good defensive game, holding Andover for downs four times inside the 10-yard line...
...increase of $48,937.28, while the sum to be distributed as dividends is larger than last year by $3,339.73. These figures show that between 6 and 7 per cent. of the increase has been realized as clear profit. It may appear from these figures that a smaller gain was made upon the business added last year, than upon that portion which continued through from the year before.

Exeter won the toss and received the kick-off. On the first play O'Brien made 25 yards, the longest gain made by Exeter all through the game. The Freshmen held for two downs and forced Fox to punt.

Several...
...forward pass on Yale's 25-yard line, and carried the ball to within five yards of the goal-line. On the next play, Surles made a touchdown on a well executed forward pass. During the rest of the game, both sides resorted to the kicking game, Yale gaining slightly on the interchange of punts. In the third period Browne made a 32-yard run through tackle which brought the ball within Yale's 40-yard line. The next play failed to gain, but Dean scored on a goal from placement. Yale's only score came toward...
