...team which Harvard has met this year. Harvard's line was not quick in charging and did not play well together, often starting ahead of the ball and being frequently penalized for so doing. The Harvard backs were unsteady and often slow in starting, and, with the exception of Graydon, seemed unable to gain ground consistently. There was very little interference and even that was broken up because of the weakness of the tackles. To this weakness of the tackles was due Dartmouth's ability to gain through the line, for the centre trio showed a steady and effective defense...
...down quickly on punts and tackled well. Marshall played a sure game at quarterback and used judgment in running plays. Daly, who took his place, besides running the team well, made a drop-kick goal from the 30 yard line. He was slow in getting away his punts. Graydon was the only one of the backs who could gain ground steadily. Putnam punted poorly and did not follow his interference closely. Derby, Jones and Devens gained some ground at times, but were not reliable enough, McGrew kept his feet well and was able to gain consistently on line plunges...
...yards and keeping the ball. This brought it to Harvard's 50 yard line where Putnam was forced to punt. Dartmouth returned the punt on the next play to the 40 yard line, Putnam running it back 10 yards. Short gains through the tackles, chiefly by Lawrence and Graydon, and 10 yards for offside play, brought the ball to the 12 yard line, whence Graydon carried it over. Putnam made a poor puntout and no goal was kicked. The next kick off went over the goal line. Putnam punted to the 55 yard line where Patterson made a fair catch...
Dartmouth kicked off and Motley ran it back 12 yards. Graydon gained 5 yards in two plays and Putnam then punted. Dartmouth returned the punt on the next play to Putnam, who gained 12 yards. Three short gains through the line were made and Graydon then broke through right tackle for 40 yards. Dartmouth held for two downs on the 13 yard line, but Graydon gained 6 yards. Wright was then pushed over for a touchdown. Lawrence kicked goal. Putnam caught the next kick-off on the 5 yard line and ran it in 23 yards. Putnam then punted...
