...Wesleyan played better football than any team Harvard has met this year. Her back-field was aggressive and the mass tackle plays were very well executed. Hartzell played a brilliant game at halfback and punted well. The ends, and especially S. Dodds, were successful in pocketing the Harvard tackles although a well formed interference sometimes put them out of the play...

Harvard scored after a few minutes of play. An exchange of punts in Harvard's favor and short and sharp rushes brought the ball to the twenty-five yard line.

...whose injuries have been keeping them out of the practice lately, Eaton, Daly and Campbell will be back in the game on Monday. Although Reid will not be allowed to play for some time yet, the injury to his leg is not so serious as was first supposed. Hurley, whose brilliant rushing will be much missed by the second eleven, sprained his ankle in the last play yesterday. The players, on the whole, are, however, passing that period in training when they are susceptible to injuries, and should soon be able to play longer and harder halves, and then...
