...touchdowns were scored in the first half. Hallowell kicked off to Williams's twenty-five yard line where Harvard took the ball on downs. Some clever rushing by Parker carried the ball up near the line, when Reid, on the third attempt, scored the first touchdown of the season. Daly missed a difficult goal. After the kick-off, Williams found the ball on Kendall's fumble, but after gaining through Swain and Eaton, was held for three downs. Parker's runs around the end and Kendall's through the line carried the ball down the field for Reid to score...
...could be found to fill with credit almost any position. Only in the centre is there a certain weakness. But the appearance yesterday in the play of A. R. Sargent will do something toward strengthening that part of the line. As Kendall is now playing rather better at right half than at left, there is little to choose between the three backs--Kendall, Warren and Parker. A bit unsatisfactory, still, is the work of the tackles. Eaton plays too desultorily; and Swain, who was so strong a tackle two years ago on the 'Varsity, has not yet even approached...

...number of changes made in the line-up of the first eleven yesterday had the effect of bracing the play to a large extent. Parker was tried at left halfback, Kendall went to right half, and Warren played with the substitutes. They all played a strong and fast game and made several long runs. The presence of Reid at fullback also steadied the back field to a great extent. Baldwin, a Freshman from Exeter, was tried at quarterback, but as he was not used to the Harvard way of snapping the ball back, he was erratic in his passing...
