...pass over the contemptible way in which the writer of this pamphlet compares the political opinions of President Eliot to those of a well-known prize-fighter; but I wish to emphasize the meanness of trying to influence the vote of whatever voters there may be among the students here, by a dastardly attack upon a president of whom we all, whatever our political opinions, are justly proud...
...Saxe fumbled badly, but Harvard luckily kept the ball. On Saxe's fumble again, Pennsylvania got the ball and Hulme, Valentine and Dewey advanced it twenty-five yards nearer Harvard's line. On a foul Harvard got the play and Lee made fifteen yards. Harding made a poor pass to Lee who finally got the ball and then dropped it. Hulme made six yards, but Church, Pennsylvania's quarterback, tried to run with the ball, and the referee gave it to Harvard on a foul play. Lee and P. Trafford gained a few yards but on a third down Trafford...
...kicked. McLeod caught it but was stopped from running. In the next play McLeod dragged Putnam about fifteen yards. Potter gained a little more by running around the end but the ball was dropped and went to Ninety-two in the next play. White was tackled and passed to Carpenter who got by all, except Crane who tackled him well. Tyson stopped Carpenter on the next play and Slocum stopped him in the next, but not until he had gained five yards. Four downs were made without a gain and Ninety got the ball. Potter did not gain enough...
...scored at 3.42. Saxe kicked the goal. Score 26-0. At this point the eleven braced wonderfully, and during the rest of the game completely outplayed their opponents. The ball had scarcely been put in play, when Dean broke through the line, secured the ball on Peck's pass, rushed half the length of the field, hotly pursued by Slayback, and scored a touchdown at 3.45. Goal. Score 32-0. By Cumnock's excellent tackling, Wesleyan was forced back from the centre of the field; he finally forced Slayback to have the ball down at the fifteen yard line. Stickney...
...kick-off Harvard fouled. A poor pass by Word lost considerable ground for Exeter which Ritchie regained. Exeter was given 25 yards on Brice's foul, and she had the ball on the freshman's twenty five yard line. Howland rushed finely and Ritchie was pushed across the line getting a touchdown. Word kicked a difficult goal. Score, Harvard 10, Exeter 6. Kendricken made a good gain for '93 when the ball was put in play and Johnson punted well. Stothers returned the ball, and Parker made a good rush. Fairchild found a hole in the rush line...
