...university team for downs and gave it considerable difficulty in scoring one touchdown. Straight football was used for the most part though one or two forward passes and onside kicks were worked successfully. Coy's work at fullback was conspicuous. He hit the line hard and made several good gains...
...University's tandem, and playing very hard and fast football, the latter broke through to the second's secondary defense on every play.

The showing of the Seniors was good, in view of the fact that it was their first scrimmage of the year. As was natural, Harvard fumbled frequently, but never failed to gain first down. Milton, on the other hand, gained first down only once, which was the result of a forward pass. The work of Russell, Plumb and Haskell of the Senior team was especially good. A Senior training table will be started at Memorial Hall...
