...University made the first score of the game toward the end of the initial period, when W. F. Robinson '18, standing on the 30-yard line, put a drop-kick squarely between the uprights. This was the only field goal the University attempted, but Neville, Comerford and Legore each tried one unsuccessfully for Yale. All three were from beyond the 40-yard line and the only one that approached success was Comerford's placement kick from the 42-yard line, which hit the upright almost on a level with the cross...

...second punt of the game carried a total distance of 80 yards including the roll, and it was this kick which put the ball in Yale's territory for the greater part of the first period. Horween also prevented a possible touchdown, or at least a safety, when Robinson, misjudging one of Legore's punts, was hit by the bounding ball. Horween dove under Moseley and recovered the ball just as it was about to roll across the Crimson goal line. Legore's punting was decidedly off form for twice he kicked straight up into the air. The University failed...

...moving pictures of the Harvard. Princeton game. After lunch the players took special cars to the Eastern League ball park, where a very light signal drill was held. The men practiced in street clothes and sneakers. Minot did some good punting and Taylor practised passing the ball. Horween and Robinson also tried drop-kicking against the wind. The coaches did little but supervise the work, leaving the men to their initiative. The air was cold and bracing, and the entire squad walked the two miles back to the hotel...
