...Field, Saturday, by the decisive score of 41 to 5. The Pennsylvania players were outweighed to a marked degree and the result of the game was at no time in doubt. They played a creditable uphill game however, in spite of their light weight, and forced Harvard to work hard for every touchdown. Few long gains were made through their line, and Harvard's touchdowns were made by short plunges after good end runs. Pennsylvania held Harvard only once for downs and gained the required five yards but twice...

After half an hour spent in running through signals yesterday, the University eleven lined up against the second team for two hard halves of open practice. The playing of the first eleven was remarkably good. There was no fumbling, and the defense against the second was strong at all times. On the offense the team used only the simpler plays, gaining ground around the ends by good interference. Sawin, at left half, made most of the touchdowns scored by the first eleven. He also out-punted R. Lawrence of the second, and showed much of his old skill in running...
