...game in the Stadium yesterday by a score of 13 to 0. The powerful, versatile backfield of Battery A was chiefly responsible for its victory. Skilton's fleet dashes around the ends, Wadsworth's sensational broken field runing and Minot's tremendous line-bucking were too formidable for the light Cadet team.

Although the new rules have favored the crushing attack of heavy teams, Coach Haughton has taught comparatively light players to cope with this disadvantage through recourse to their greater speed and by alertness to profit by opponents' errors.

The fact that the press has given most attention to the star backfield does not in the least detract from the record and ability of a light, but fast and aggressive line. If Harvard wins on Saturday the line will be responsible as much as the backfield...
