...toss and chose the south goal. Burr kicked off to Miner on the 15-yard line, but Harvard was offside and the ball was called back. Burr then kicked to Cobb, who ran the ball back to the 27-yard line. Bearse gained three yards through right guard, and Cobb followed with seven around left end, but Maine was penalized 15 yards for holding. Higgins gained one yard through right tackle and then punted to Lockwood who fumbled on Harvard's 40-yard line, Maine recovering the ball. Cobb gained eight yards through left tackle and then tried the same...
There are three important changes in the line-up, since the Bowdoin game last Wednesday. Burr will play left tackle, where he played in the scrimmage on Thursday, Parker will play left guard and Grant will be tried out at center. Apollonio or Butt will play fullback...
...work was of a little harder order than heretofore, including falling on the ball, tackling the dummy, and breaking through. The ends were sent down under kicks, and then a signal drill was held. The makeup of the first team was the same as yesterday: centre, Cotting; left guard, Maguire; right guard, Dunlap; left tackle, Mackay; right tackle, Strong; left end, Rogers; right end, Harding; quarterback, Johnson; left halfback, Davis; right halfback, Pope; fullback, Minot...
...will play against Yale. Kennard and Macdonald, both of whom played in the Yale game last year, seem to be the leading candidates for end, with M. C. Peirce and Bird the first substitutes. The tackle positions are very uncertain. There is some talk of shifting W. Peirce to guard, to fill the place left vacant by Kersburg. In that case the best men for tackle would be Inches, Robinson, Hoar or H. C. Blanchard. Burr will undoubtedly fill his former position of left guard; and barring Peirce, the most likely men for right guard are Alley, Brock and Wilson...
...hold down right tackle. H. Inches '08, S. Hoar '09, and M. D. Robinson '09 are likely substitutes for this or left tackle. At present there is no prominent man for left tackle. S. D. Warren '08 and W. D. Philippbar '09, together with some of the extra guard material may prove good men. There will be a great number of good ends available next year. G. M. Orr '08, D. P. Starr '08, J. MacDonald '08 and V. P. Kennard '09 of last year's team will all be back, and W. M. Bird '08, A. McL. Olds...
