...game close tomorrow afternoon at 5 o'clock. According to the new arrangement students who are holders of Harvard Athletic Association tickets will be entitled without charge to one seat at the Dartmouth game. An applicant for two seats will be allowed the price of one seat ($1.50). To gain this privilege the holder must make out an application in the usual manner and mark on the lower right hand edge his H. A. A. ticket number...
...where Coolidge fell on it for the second touchdown. Hardwick kicked the goal. A little later Felton stood in mid-field ready to punt. The game seemed to stop, waiting for the kick. Suddenly he passed the ball across the line into Coolidge's arms for a 33-yard gain. Short rushes placed the ball on the 4-yard line where Brown held, forcing Brickley to try another drop. He stood on the 15-yard line and kicked a clean goal. Score, Harvard 20, Brown...

Three plays failed to gain first down, and so Brickley was called back for another drop and scored from the 25-yard line. Score, Harvard, 23, Brown...

Comparatively little ground was made by either team in straight football, Harvard gaining 290 yards from scrimmages (but in this several long runs and passes counted), and Brown gaining 141 (in which a gain of 50 yards figured). Felton's punting averaged well up to 50 yards, while Henry's fell short of this by about 5 yards...
...last quarter, Princeton led by only two points. In this period, however, the Dartmouth defence seemed to weaken and, as the result of a successful forward pass, combined with a five-yard gain through a penalty and a remarkable run the length of the field by Barker, Princeton scored two touchdowns. The run by baker was the sensation of the game. Receiving a, short low punt on his 10-yard line, the ran through the entire Dartmouth team, and crossed the line at the opposite corner of the field...
