...Harvard backs while running in punts. Thus, though Dean's kicks were longer than Potter's, Corbett's or Minot's, the Army invariably lost by punting, since the Harvard backs could carry the ball in for long distances. Corbett was especially fast and in the second period he ran in two punts for 30 and 35 yards, respectively...
...line, in which only two substitutions were made, showed improvement and played more as a unit than in former games. Wigglesworth at quarterback was not quite up to his best form, but, considering his recent absence, he played remarkably well. Potter ran the team with speed and decision, showed good judgment in the choice of plays, and handled punts in the backfield accurately. Corbett and Frothingham played in last year's effective way, though the former made one costly fumble and the latter two. Campbell, who started the same at right halfback, was strong on the plunges, and, with Morrison...
Withington won the toss and chose to receive the ball. Weir kicked off to Lewis, who ran to his 30-yard line. On the next play, Corbett dashed around left end for 33 yards putting the ball on the Army's 47-yard line. After an exchange of punts, Harvard could not gain on West Point's 40-yard line, and a short kick was recovered by McDonald on his 21-yard line. Dean immediately kicked to Wigglesworth, who ran to his 53-yard line. In three downs the ball was on the Army's 27-yard line...
...kick, which failed. West Point rushed from the 25-yard line and made its only first down on a tackle plunge by Dean. He tried the same play once more but could not gain and punted to Corbett. The latter, aided by the good interference of Morrison and Potter, ran from his 30-yard line to the Army's 45-yard line. Two plays netted 5 yards and Potter punted over the goal line. After one rush from the 25-yard line, Dean kicked to Harvard's 35-yard line. Punts were frequent during the rest of the period...
...recovered the ball on its 50-yard line. West Point was then penalized 15 yards for holding. The next play was an on-side kick, but it failed to go 20 yards and Harvard was penalized 15 yards. Minot punted to the Army's 10-yard line and McDonald ran back three yards. After one play Dean kicked to Wigglesworth, who ran 17 yards to West Point's 34-yard line where he fumbled and lost the ball. Dean again kicked and Frothingham got 23 yards, to the Army's 43-yard line. He fumbled, however, and West Point...
