...field of over 70 competitors, and through preliminaries, semi-finals and finals, Chase emerged prize-winner in the 50-yard dash. His handioap was three feet, but the margin by which he won was very nearly as great. A. H. Miller '27, starting from scratch, and R. D. Howard '24 with a three foot handicap were among the semi-finalists...
...first half Coach Wachter's men, freed from the shackles of the Intercollegiate League guarding that has hampered them for the past fornight, celebrated their emancipation by a basketthrowing orgy. At half time the score was 23 to 5 and the wonder was that the margin was no greater. Rauh and Gordon were in their best scoring form and the Rhode Island defense was scarcely worthy of the name...

...second half, however, the Crimson attack utterly failed to function. For 18 minutes not a single goal dropped through the Harvard hoop. Meanwhile the Brunonians were piling up a 22 to 5 margin, with Tsukuno, diminutive Japanese forward, leading the attack. Coach Chase's players came to life with two minutes to go and their belated rally netted three goals...
