...game started with 1901 in possession of the ball. A strong wind was blowing directly against the Freshmen and prevented them from gaining ground on punts as '99 often did. Hallowell kicked off and '99 returned the punt. Again 1901 kicked but failed to gain ground and the ball was almost on 1901's line. In the next play Jaynes got the ball but was forced back and downed behind his own goal. This safety was made within two minutes of start of play. On the next start Jaynes fumbled badly and 1901 seemed to be thoroughly demoralized. '99 broke...
...Daly kicked the goals very successfully, making two that were rather difficult. 1900 had good individual players but their team work was often very ineffective and they could not break through their opponent's line. For the Freshmen Daly ran the team well and Jaynes proved a very strong ground gainer...
...first half the ball was always in the second eleven's territory, as with the exception of Hanavan's run around Cochrane's end, and a few rushes by Bull, the second could gain little ground. Three touchdowns in all were scored during the ten minutes of play. Two of these were more or less sensational, and were due directly to the interference which swung into shape on the end plays much better than usual. The first touchdown was scored by Dibblee on a 90-yard end run. He was cleverly blocked off for past Litting and then had practically...
...years Harvard has made but little progress in debate in comparison with her rivals. It may be that we reached a climax beyond which it is difficult to go, several years since, and that the other colleges, where debating was slow in gaining a foothold, have been gaining ground faster, but this is difficult to believe. At all events, if there is any truth in this conjecture we want to see it contradicted this year, and the first step in this direction is a trial debate which will satisfy us that we are being represented by the best material...
...fault of either starting a little ahead of the signals and thus making a change necessary, or of starting slowly. The weakness of the Brown line unquestionably covered up a good many slow starts. Dibblee played his usual star game, and by following his interference more closely, covered much ground on end plays. Sullivan made many good gains until he was injured and forced to leave the game. Aside from his deplorable failures at goal kicking, and his fumble of the second kick-off, Brown played a fair game, rushing hard and tackling strongly at times...
