...deplorable lack of interference. Mahan was often impeded by the slowness of the shield of men in front of him, and at times he had to abandon his protection in order to elude tacklers from behind. Rollins, too, easily overtook his interference. The interference does not seem to rush with that ferocious charge, which marked the Harvard interference of last year, and often on Saturday a Crimson player instead of plunging into the opposing tackler, would merely try to ward him off from the play. A noticeable exception was Harte, who was responsible for many a gain...

...complete rout of the Dartmouth team at the hands of Princeton, which would seem to be the strongest team on our schedule. The Tigers had no trouble rolling up 30 points against their visitors, while the scant consolation of Dartmouth's 7 points was made only when Coach Rush had sent in a substitute team.

Tibbott scored a touchdowns, and put up a great game at carrying the ball...

Miller, moreover, kicks off and usually drops the ball in the vicinity of the opponent...

...second team started the scrim- mage with a rush, but found the University defense too strong for consistent ground-gaining. The crimson eleven, however, proved to possess a powerful attack, and during the course of the play scored four touchdowns and a dropkick. Enwright was the first man to score, for when the seconds had held the regulars twice on their one-yard line, he took the ball and managed to drive his way through between the goal-posts for a touchdown, although the stubborn resistence offered by Captain Selden's team was such that the ball was placed just...
