...Daly, who rushed back Miller's punts usually for gains of about 15 yards. Excepting once, when the ball was lost on four downs and twice when he should have allowed kicks to cross the line, Daly's generalship was excellent. His clean tackle of Metoxen in the first half saved the eleven from one more touchdown against them, aside from its merit as a hard tackle...
...Except on one or two well-executed trick-plays, the Harvard backs were totally unable to gain around the ends, and had to depend upon line-plays.

Reid again punted well, and by kicking the ball higher, gave the ends more time to get down the field...
