Several spectacular plays occurred during the afternoon. Mahan received the second kick-off on the 5-yard line and carried it to the middle of the field before he was stopped. Brickley got away for a 20-yard run, almost gaining a clear field before he was tackled. The punting was done by Hardwick, and was one of the encouraging features of the scrimmage. His kicks usually went for about 40 yards and were high enough for the ends, Coolidge and O'Brien, to get down well under them...
Harvard scored 21 points in the first period. Logan took the initial kick-off 85 yards down the field for the first touchdown. About five plays later, Mahan, on a fake kick, went around right end and by availing himself of good interference and clever dodging carried the ball 70 yards for the second score. The third touchdown followed a recovery of a Maine fumble on her 20-yard line, a few tackle plays, and a fake dropkick play. Mahan went through tackle with the ball. The fourth touchdown came after Maine had been held for downs...
...second team men in a half-hour scrimmage yesterday afternoon. After practice in catching and running down under punts, the regulars and substitutes drilled for a short time on signals, and then in the absence of Squad B, lined up against the second team. Running a defective kick-off by the Second well past the centre line, the regulars gained by rushes and end runs, until R. Curtis took the ball across for the only touchdown. Gilman kicked the goal...
...University football team defeated Brown Saturday afternoon, 30 to 10, because Crowther, the Brown quarterback, was not strong enough to prevent it. He started the contest with a run in from the kick-off of 35 yards and played to the end a brilliant and hard game. Until the last moments of the first period the game was nip and tuck, there being a continual exchange of punts in which Felton had a slight advantage over Henry. Then Hardwick received a punt on his 25-yard line and ran it in 15 yards; Wendell rushed 8 yards; Hardwick gained...
...third quarter three points were made by each team. Ashbaugh stood on his 42-yard line and scored a beautiful goal from placement. It was on the kick-off after this play that Hitchcock was put out of the game for unavoidable use of hands. T. H. Frothingham took his place, and a few plays later saved what might have been another place goal by blocking the kick. Toward the end of the period, Brickley got away around left end for a 45-yard run. Three plays failed to gain first down, and so Brickley was called back for another...
