...quarter of a century ago Harvard defeated Princeton 12 to 0. Saturday Harvard defeated Princeton 16 to 6. From the beginning to the end of the game, scarcely a fault could be found with the playing of the University team; its strength as a combination was only surpassed by Brickley's strength as an individual. Generalship, absence of fumbling, the splendid aggressiveness of the line, and above all the kicking of Brickley and Felton won the game for Harvard.

The early season games have conclusively proved that the 1912 team is well up to the average of Harvard football teams of former years; whether it is of championship calibre today's contest will undoubtedly declare...
...second had gone into first place, a little open water showing between it and the third which was half a length ahead of the first. For the next half mile the third made a good spurt, holding the University eight and gaining slightly on the second. At the last quarter mile the first crew attempted to spurt, passing the third, but was unable to gain on the second, which finished a length in the lead...
