...minutes' play, the Harvard team exceeded general expectations and rolled up a good score against opponents of great reputation for strength. On the offensive Harvard was much stronger than the Indians, and was rarely held for downs. The defense, as was expected, kept the ball so far from the goal line that Hudson could not kick a goal from the field until the presence of substitutes weakened the Harvard line which finally gave way before the furious attacks of the Indians. Hudson then rushed the ball down into Harvard's territory and made a graceful drop-kick from...

...punted. Gierasch, annoyed by the Indian ends, did not catch the ball cleanly and it rolled to one side. Redwater dropped on it, scrambled to his feet and broke away down a clear field. Daly caught him from behind, but too late to prevent a touchdown. Wheelock missed the goal...

...side play by Carlisle, Ellis rushed the ball to the Indian's 20-yard line on a fake kick, and by successful line-plunges, carried it to the five yard line. Here Carlisle held for two downs when Daly scored on a clever criss-cross, and Lawrence kicked the goal. Soon after the kick-off the Indians were forced to punt but Ellis blocked the kick and fell on the ball. Daly, with Donald back, then attacked the Indian centre, and soon sent Ellis across the line for a touchdown. Lawrence missed the goal. During the rest of the half...

...beginning of the second half, Daly returned Pierce's kick-off and Ellis secured the ball on a fumble. On the next exchange of punts Daly made a fair catch on the 47 yard line. Although Burnett missed this try at goal, he kicked one a minute later from the 37 yard line. Offside play by Harvard gave the ball to Carlisle, who rushed it to the 40 yard line, where Hudson missed a difficult goal. More punting followed in Hallowell's favor, until he finally secured the ball on a fumble. This enabled Kendall to score, and Daly kicked...

...individual work, Gierasch did some of the best rushing of the practice. In the first half, after Warren had made a thirty yard run on an exchange of kicks to the twenty-yard line, Gierasch carried it across the goal line behind well-formed interference. In the second half he scored again, this time from the middle of the field. Fincke's work at quarter was a great improvement, and his work in the interference was as strong as usual. Campbell's playing was good. Burnett missed a goal from the forty-yard line, besides making some poor passes...
