...playing a hard aggressive game, blocking well and getting down on kicks very fast. The loss of last year's guards has been much felt, and the success of the attempt to fill the places is problematic. Armstrong '99, who played halfback last year, has been moved up to right guard, and as he is doing fairly good work he seems sure of the place. He is very active, and his experience at half is valuable in running with the ball. Crowdis, last year's substitute centre will play left guard. Although he is slow and poor at breaking through...
...right tackle, Church '97, one of last year's men, is holding his place in spite of strong competition. He has increased his weight to 195 pounds, always plays a strong, aggressive game, and is one of the surest ground-gainers on the team. Left tackle is being well taken care of by Hillebrand 1900, who is closely pushed by Booth 1900. Both men were guards last year on Andover, and play good, hard football, blocking and breaking through well...
...Harvard team had only light signal practice yesterday in preparation for the game. The line-up was the same as that in the Cornell game with the exception of right tackle, where Merriman was played instead of Haughton...
Hallowell kicked off for '97 and the ball was returned to the 30 yard line. Here '97 began playing the tackles, and soon Holmes was badly hurt and had to be carried off the field. He was replaced at right tackle by Riggs. Short rushes carried the ball to the centre of the field and a punt gave it to '98 on her 15 yard line. Scull circled the left end for 20 yards, but the ball was lost. Sleeper was sent against right tackle, but, finding no one in his way he ran around the end for a touchdown...
...returned the kick gaining slightly for '97. '98 started off to rush the ball but were soon obliged to give it up on downs. Two rushes were made by '97 through the opposing tackles and then the ball was given to Little, who, behind good interference, cleared '98's right end for forty yards and a touchdown. Hallowell failed to kick an easy goal...
