...Boston Athletic association eleven defeated Technology on Saturday by a score of 22 to 0. The Technology team was crippled by the loss of three good men, while the Athletic team averaged ten pounds heavier. The Athletics had the kick off and gained twenty yards. Within six minutes they had pushed the ball over the line for the first touchdown. In the first half they scored another touchdown and goal, and were only prevented from making more points by Technology's desperate work. In the second half the Athletics soon secured the ball and after a good run by Morrison...
...Yale for off-side play. On Yale's second down Cranston broke through and tackled McBride, recovering the ground lost on McClung's first rush. Wurtemburg fumbled, but Yale was given five yards for Dean's off-side play and saved the ball. Both sides kicked with a loss for Yale. Yale then worked the ball beyond Harvard's ten-yard line by short rushes by Gill (2), Morrison (3), McClung (2), Rhodes and McBride, and five yards for Harvard's offside play. Newell was disqualified for slugging and Adams took his place. Harvard was given the ball on Yale...

HARVARD...
...touchdown by Lee, was the best one Harvard made throughout the game, for at that time the rushers broke through the line and blocked off beautifully, while Lee's work was superb. Princeton played a rough game throughout but the eleven was weakened very little by the loss of the men who were ruled off for foul play. Harvard's work was a trifle stronger than Princeton's in the first half, while in the second, every man on the home team weakened perceptibly, and the Princeton men got through Harvard's rushline without trouble. It is a question...
