...right side of the line in particular was weak, and through Knowlton the second eleven made most of its advances. Knowlton's work in carrying the ball also was almost absolutely ineffective. He ran high, failed to keep his feet, and could make next to no headway. Sugden at centre, played very poorly, and had to be transferred to the second team. Mason, who played right tackle on the second eleven, was effective in carrying the ball and aided materially in securing the touchdown for his side.

One touchdown was made on a 30 yard run by Foster, and many of the other scores were made possible by long runs, notably one of 45 yards by Daly, several of about 20 yards by Stillman, and two of the same length by Knowlton and Graydon, respectively.

Hodges' work at right halfback, though often fast and effective, is too uncertain to be satisfactory. Besides hitting the line too high, he is weak in interference and uncertain on the defense. His punting is excellent in practice, but falls off considerably in a line-up, so as to be at times noticeably weak...
