...striking features of Yale elevens. The fierce, sudden onslaughts upon the line made particularly by Butterworth, although also by Thorne with fine effect, were irresistible, and to this persistent bucking of the line is due Yale's victory. It was an exact repetition of the Pennsylvania game in this respect, where Butterworth with his inimitable skill followed the same tactics and saved Yale from defeat. The evenness of Yale's play in both offensive and defensive work was one of the most striking features of the game. So equally balanced were they that in point of comparative strength...
...Yale both in defensive and offensive work. It was a magnificent struggle and the fact that such strength can be showed should be incentive enough to the eleven to put a winning team into the field next Thursday. In the second half, however, Yale clearly outclassed Harvard in every respect. Harvard's great fault then, as before, was too deliberate playing. She was far too cautious considering the seriousness of the situation. More reckless dash and head-long impetuosity were the qualities which the occasion demanded, but Harvard had no captain to rally her men and infuse into them this...

...development of the team play of the freshmen, but several of the men played well individually and showed a tendency towards remedying their defects. The tackling still continues to be the most noticeable weakness and it seems impossible for some of the players to improve in this respect. The line men played a strong offensive game and were particularly successful in stopping kicks. In the defensive work, however, they were weak and practically offered little resistance to their opponents, who broke through and tackled repeatedly. Most of the gains were made through the right half of the line which...
...double and even triple the price paid for them. This is nothing more nor less than the dishonorable business of speculation in tickets which the present system of selling is intended to do away with. The man who sells a ticket to his brother student, who does not respect college fraternity, has no place among honorable men and should be exposed to public censure the minute he attempts anything of the kind...
