...second eleven, Burnett again played a strong game and was the one steady point in the line. In offensive work, however, the second was unable to make any gains. Even punting was of no avail, for the backs of the first usually eluded the second's ends and ran back to the place from which the ball was kicked...
...back-field played a sharp and fast game. Fincke ran the team with discretion, tackled hard and was a useful man in the interference. Kendall; individually, was strong, but was of little service as an interferer. As Gierasch has strained a ligament in his leg, Parker played throughout the game. In spite of his light weight, he again proved his strength as a halfback. Ellis took Kendall's place in the second half, and, by carefully following his interference, made several long runs. He also made consistent gains on line plunges...
...lost the ball on a fumble. After two or three gains the second lost the ball on downs, but Burnett's activity prevented the first from gaining. After an exchange of punts, Sawin caught the ball on his own thirty-yard line and, eluding the second eleven's ends, ran eighty yards for a touchdown. In the remainder of the half the first eleven again pushed the ball the length of the field by short rushes. During the next half the first eleven, with substitute backs, scored twice. On the few occasions when the second had the ball, they lost...
...rest of the back field played strongly, especially Gierasch and Parker. The former was very quick on his feet, and by carefully following his interference, made some brilliant long runs around Williams's left end. Daly ran the team well and found no trouble in eluding the Williams's forwards by clever dodging. Fincke, who took his place in the last five minutes, played in much better form that last season, and was particularly effective in the interference. Both Reid and Sawin struck the line hard and the latter did some good punting...
...second half, Williams weakened to such an extent that the Harvard substitute team was able to score three times, Daly kicking one goal and Sawin two. By following the interference and by alert dodging, Gierasch ran around Chadwell for a touchdown from the forty yard line. Two minutes later he ran to the five yard line and aided by the strong interference of Fincke and Sawin went through the line for the fourth touchdown. In the last two minutes, Gierasch scored again from the thirty-five yard line. Time was called with the ball in Williams's possession...
