...practice yesterday was an improvement over Monday's. The first eleven scored twice on the second, and the men got into the plays with more energy and snap. There was still a tendency to fumble, but only once did this result seriously. An encouraging feature was the quick and effective formation of interference on end runs, of which the backs were quick to take advantage. Greene and Sugden did not play yesterday and Cutler of the Freshman squad played centre on the second...
...less fumbling than usual, but the few fumbles made were very costly. Meier punted well, getting the ball off quickly and for good distance, and in this way did much to keep the first from scoring. In the line Randolph and Lawrence did effective work. Thayer at end got down well under punts. Back of the line, Matthews passed better than in the Bates game, and Knowles and Mifflin generally made good gains, although Mifflin fumbled too much...
...kick-off in the second half Matthews ran the ball back 15 yards. Meier punted for 55 yards and on the next down Mifflin returned the kick. Meier punted again and the second got the ball on a fumble. Hurd and DeKoven made short gains and Meier punted. Sargent's pass for a punt was poor and Mifflin was downed for a loss. Mifflin punted to Matthews, who ran the kick back seven yards. Time was called without further scoring...
...yards. Short gains by Mifflin, Derby, and Ristine and a 20 yard run by Derby, brought the ball to the 10 yard line, where it was lost on a fumble. Bates gained four yards on a double pass, but was held for downs. On Mifflin's fumble, Bates got the ball on her 12 yard line, but could not gain and was forced to punt. Harvard advanced the ball through the plunging of Mifflin and Knowles to the five yard line, where Mifflin was sent through for a touchdown. Campbell kicked goal. Time was called without any further scoring...
...ball for loss, and failed to make their distance. The first eleven fumbled, but retained the ball; and on short gains by Meier and Ristine advanced to the 20 yard line, where they were held for downs. McGrew's punt was blocked, but Rainsford fell on the ball. McGrew got the next punt away quickly, and Swann ran it back 5 yards. Ristine made 5 yards through right tackle, but the first eleven could not gain on the next four downs. Gains by McGrew and Derby netted 10 yards, and Matthews gained on a fumble. The first eleven was pushed...
