...attack. The play on which the second gained the most ground throughout the game was that in which the ends ran with the ball from their regular positions. In the second half, R. M. Page ran 40 yards through a broken field after recovering the ball on a poor pass for a kick. Fort McKinley then made 20 yards on a forward pass from a very open formation...
...Goebel today, breaking up play after play. With few exceptions both lines are composed of veterans. Yale has decided superiority in ends and backs, of which the latter are not exceeded on any college team. Vaughan, Yale's right end, has shown great ability at handling the forward pass, and Coy's long kicks will also be a factor. Princeton's quarterback, Bergin, has improved a great deal, and Hart at halfback will show up well...
...whom French, in two line bucks, gained 15 yards. A fumble gave the Juniors the ball in mid-field, but, after some good line plunging, they were forced to kick. The 1912 team blocked the kick and recovered the ball on the Juniors' 45-yard line. A forward pass was tried again unsuccessfully and Heath and Foster again gained well on their skin-tackle and line-bucking plays.

...Sophomores kicked off to the Juniors, who advanced the ball to their 35-yard line where they were held for downs. Upon receiving the ball, 1912, supporting the runner well, broke through the Junior line repeatedly, but on a third down, their forward pass failed, and the Juniors took the ball on their own 30-yard line. The Juniors were able now to plow through the Sophomores' line as easily as the latter team had done it a moment before, and a series of skin-tackle plays by Heath netted several good gains. At last, the 1912 team held them...
...good dodging, ran it back 20 yards to his own 35-yard line. On twelve plays, for the most part through right guard by Lewis, the ball was brought to Worcester's 3-yard line, where a penalty set the Freshmen back five yards. A short forward pass, Gardner to Carr, scored a touchdown for Harvard. Lewis kicked a difficult goal. Wendell ran the kick-off back 20 yards. Felton kicked to Melican, who was downed by Carr for no gain. A forward pass to Sibley gained 10 yards, but the next play, also a forward pass, was declared illegal...
