...ball in any considerable distance. In the open, Randall was easily the most reliable end, and made several excellent dive-tackles. Matthews, who replaced him toward the end of the game, also played well. In the backfield Foster was clearly the strongest player on the offense. He hit the Holy Cross line with such force and speed that he was able to gain his distance almost every time, and in eight plays just outside tackle he made several gains of from 15 to 30 yards each. At quarterback both Starr and Noyes played well. Starr again proved a most reliable...
